Bottle Rocket

Advantages: Good dialogue, good acting, interesting story
Disadvantages: Is a bit of a slow moving story

...Seeing how I think I did ok reviewing another of Wes Andersons movies I figured I might as well have a go at reviewing the others I've seen as well, so I figured I'd start with Bottle Rocket, as thats the first film that Wes directed and its also the first film that Owen and Luke Wilson and Bob Musgrave starred in too, the start of good things to come! This movie I believe was written while Owen (and Luke(?)) and Wes were at university together in Texas in the 1990s and is now seen as a cult comedy hit. Bottle Rocket is all about three friends who team up to escape their boring lifes and pursuit a life of petty crime. This eventually leads to the local criminal 'head honcho' who's played by James Caan, spotting them and convincing them to carry out a large heist - but is it too much for them to handle and will they get away with it...

Rocket-who

Advantages: Cool helmet
Disadvantages: Weak cast, slightly duff story

...at a story but it never seems really grand enough and does suffer from having weak characters. Maybe not as bad as a lot of people would have you think and if you're a fan of the 30's serial King of The Rocket Men then you might get something out of it. Watchable if it's on and it's raining outside but don't make any special effort to see it...

Albie and the Space Rocket

Advantages: Great fun read for children
Disadvantages: None

...Albie and the Space Rocket is a book which my boys love to read. THE STORY The story begins with Albie being tucked up in bed and sleeping when something suddenly takes his bed away from him. He goes downstairs to investigate. In the downstairs toilet he finds two moose dancing the tango but no toilet. Albie then goes into the kitchen where he finds a zebra who has a cupboard full of his zebra friends. Albie continues to search for his missing bed, he looks in the cupboard under the stairs, behind the shower curtain and then he goes into the last room where he finds a heard of quivering elephants. In this room he finds a 'super-duper, intergalactic space rocket which has been made out of his bed, the cooker and the downstairs toilet! The elephants tell Albie that he cant have the things back as the rocket is almost ready...

Rocket Fuel Coffee with Guarana

Advantages: tastes good, not too expensive and gives you a massive kick, ethical company too
Disadvantages: really will keep you up, don't drink before bed

...It had been a long week, lots of work, not much sleep and definitely no social life, Friday rolled around and I wanted to go out. But I was knackered, what a dilemma. Then I found ROCKET FUEL in my corner shop, it promised to give me a kick start and did it. I had quite a strong cup, 2 teaspoons from my newly bought jar. I was off, buzzing, awake and on top form ready for what the night was going to throw at me. I just wanted to let you know of this awesome product. They also have self heating cups, so need for water or kettle! Perfect when in a rush, just push the buttom and ta da hot coffee in just 40 seconds. It is a mix of coffee and guarana, which is what gives it that extra kick. Fully recommend to anyone who needs a kick, before or after a night out-although not before you want to sleep!...

Rocket To Russia

Advantages: See review
Disadvantages: See review

...By 1977, the punk scene had exploded. It began on the lower east bowery in New York City, in clubs like CBGBs, and spread across to the United Kingdom, where bands like the Sex Pistols and the Clash were starting to make a racket. After Johnny Ramone had heard the single release of "God Save the Queen," he was ready to record the next album, and prove to the people that were "ripping them off" who the real punks were. Rocket to Russia was mainly written on the road throughout late 1977, and released the same year as their second album, Leave Home. Rocket to Russia is the Ramones' best album. Every one of the songs on here is perfect, and none of them fail to impress me. The Ramones were the true masters of simplicity. Rocket to Russia possesses a very clean, well-produced sound. This is very evident from the beggining, and is...

Rocket Fuel - Hot Coffee on the Move!

Advantages: Hot coffee wherever you are
Disadvantages: A bit expensive

...Piping hot espresso anytime, anywhere you like? I've just come across Percol's great Rocket Fuel coffee in an ingenious self heating cup. Granted, a small cup, but with power like this, who needs more? The coffee: Finest Italian espresso coffee mixed with 0.9% Guarana. This combination significantly increases the stimulating effect, as Guarana is more consistent in its energy supply to your body than caffeine alone. It also fuels you for a longer period of time, so avoiding the hit-and-slump regularly associated with just caffeine. The cup: Easy peasy - turn upside down, press in the bottom and shake for 40 seconds. Turn right way up, peel off lid and drink - hot and strong. The packaging: Fiery-looking black pot with ROCKETFUEL in yellow running up its length. A box next to it states HOT ENERGY - STRONG BLACK COFFEE...
