GONE IN JUST OVER 60 SECONDS

Advantages: Good action, lots of good shots and fast moving
Disadvantages: Little problems with the story

...The title may be gone in 60 seconds, and though the film lasts a lot longer that that, the fast paced action may well make the time fly by. Nicholas Cage is Memphis Rains who is a car thief at the top of his profession. He is now retired, but is forced back into the business when the bond of brotherly love calls for him.

Take the Canon IXUS 60 over the newer models if you can!

Advantages: size, image quality, build quality
Disadvantages: expensive, especially now that it is discontinued

...As a Sony A100 user I needed something more compact. I bought the Canon IXUS 60 in December '08, and was deeply impressed with the ultra-compact size, build quality and stunning images! Canon have always had a great reputation for accurate colour reproduction and natural tonality, and this little camera fails to disappoint. Please consider that more megapixels does not necessarily equal better image quality, and compact cameras over 6mp introduce noise artifacts due to cramming too many pixels into a small sensor (http://www.6mpixel.org/en/). This is why I stumped up the extra to choose this model over the current equivalents, and if you can audition one you will see why this could be the right decision. The IXUS 60 is still one of the ultra-compacts to beat in my opinion, and it's difficult to think that anyone could feel let down...

Review of Canon Digital IXUS 60

* It's Over *

Advantages: Voices ,
Disadvantages: Prefered their old songs!

...As much as I try to like the British girlband The Saturdays , I don't know what it is , but I just don't seem to like them as much as Girls Aloud. Yes , they're a good band who come across as being 'perfect' , yet I don't know what it is which makes me find them slightly annoying. However , regardless of this fact , I will admit that I do like some of their songs ; their latest one being 'Forever Is Over'. Forever Is Over is the sixth single from The Saturdays and taken off their second and latest album Wordshaker. The single was released in the United Kingdom on 5th October 2009 and has earned the band a number two in the charts. Forever Is Over takes the band into a new direction as this a completely different sound to what they have been used to. At first , I thought it reminded me of another song , but then after I realised...

Review of Forever Is Over (Single) - The Saturdays

Reign Over Me - Brilliant!

Advantages: Brilliant acting - clever dialogue.
Disadvantages: A bit slow at times.

...children, whose life is falling apart because of his lack of self-assertiveness. When Alan bumps into his old college roommate, Charlie, his life takes an unexpected turn. 'Reign Over Me' is a modest, unpretentious gem of a movie. The setting is starkly plain and unappealing, the soundtrack somewhat uninspiring unless you're a fan of Bruce Springsteen, The Pretenders, Pearl Jam and The Fray, and the storyline and subject matter are reminiscent of the heart-breaking stories that have touched us all following 9/11...yet none of that matters because the dialogue is brilliant, and the acting is absolutely spectacular. Watching Adam Sandler pour his heart and soul into Charlie Fineman, I was absolutely astounded... never in a million years would I have thought Adam capable of such an extraordinary performance! Truth be told - I was blown...

Fujifilm Poorpix F60FD

Advantages: Great looks and well built.
Disadvantages: Some features fail to impress and the overall image quality is far from great.

...Most of you who read my reviews regularly will by now know that as well as being a professional photographer, I am also part of a camera club and as such I get the chance to test many various types of cameras and often give seminars and write reviews on these cameras. A few days ago I was handed the latest in what is a short line of Fujifilm?s F series compacts and I set about finding out just how good this new Fujifilm FinePix F60FD actually is. Following on from the F50FD this luxury compact camera is jam packed full of features and clever ideas, it has a massive 12MP resolution, a 3X optical zoom and a huge 3 inch screen so it is on par or better than many of its immediate rivals on these fronts but can it carry off great photography or is it all about having the gimmicks and the toys to appear a good camera rather than being one...

Review of Fujifilm FinePix F60FD

60 seconds?!

Advantages: good product
Disadvantages: chips

...and Nails Inc. that can be over £10.00 Does it really dry in 60 seconds? This product is true to what it says and it does dry in 60 seconds if you paint on one coat! That means you do not have to wait around for ages and worry about them being knocked and looking tacky. Are there any disadvantages? The only disadvantage I would say is that I think you need more than one coat and this takes more than 60 seconds to dry. This is obviously because there is more nail varnish. But, I suppose it depends on what colour you buy. It also chips and peels quite easily :( Why do I like it? I like it because it is fast and easy to apply. The brush also makes it perfect and for some reason it stops me biting my nails! I would recommend that if you use a dark shade to put an undercoat on because this can make your nails go a yellowy colour...

Review of Rimmel 60 Seconds Nail Varnish

60 minute emergency!!

Advantages: good to see before and after
Disadvantages: annoyin!

...This programme is possibly THE most irritating thing on the telly yet what am I doing now? I am watching it! noooo!! If only I could reach the remote to turn it over! I used to watch this a lot about 4 years ago whilst I was at uni, it was quite exciting then and lets be honest, anything would be more thrilling than sitting through lectures on neuroscience! Now though when I watch it i find myself groaning and getting really fed up of it. The idea of the show is to give someone's house a make over in just an hour. The designer meets the family, looks around the house and 4 rooms are then made over this involves decorating, furnishing, making things etc. The owner then comes home, is supposedly surprised by the cameras and the team and is overjoyed by their make over. What annoys me.. I cannot believe how many people get...
