She's a Wolf!

Advantages: Great mix of songs
Disadvantages: None

...I recently saw Shakira performing huts from her new album, She Wolf on Later with Jools Holland and I liked them so much that it prompted me to buy the album. It cost £8.99 from HMV. The cover features a very sassy looking Shakira adopting a kind of She Wolf pose on the front with messy/sexy hair and a very cute sparkly tank top. Shakira is a singer songwriter from Colombia. Her full name is Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll but professionally she just uses Shakira. She has been very successful in Latin America since the early 1990?s but it wasn?t until 2001 that she found worldwide success with her song "Whenever, Wherever"and then her English speaking album Laundry Service, which sold over thirteen million copies worldwide. According to an article I read, she is the highest-selling Colombian artist of all time, and the second most...

Review of She Wolf - Shakira

Wolf Wolf Wolf Wolf

Advantages: Classic 80's movie
Disadvantages: None

...Teen Wolf One of my favourite 80?s movies of all times has to be Teen Wolf. It?s one of those that you know all the lines to and can watch over and over again and still not get bored. I think it combines that classic 80?s cheesiness with the perfect mix of teen angst, and love and friendship to bring you a great film. The basic plot for the show involves a Scott Howard, a high school student who is struggling with the fact that he is able to transform into a werewolf. He keeps this to himself for a while but upon divulging it to his father, finds out that he too is a werewolf and gives him advice on how to deal with it. Scott doesn?t really take his advice as he finds that, after some initial reservations from the other students it now gives him a edge at high school and he becomes the popular kid. Throw in a couple love interests...

A Wolf On The Prowel

Advantages: Fast paced, gripping read. Excellent Characters and educational as well
Disadvantages: A little slow to start

...the way. By creating a sense of empathy with his lead characters, Iggulden ensures that you will read on, desperate to know how things turn out for them. In fact the same is true of all his lead characters. He creates a world where you really want to see certain people survive and succed within the story. Likewise there are an equal number of characters, such as the new head of the Wolf tribe that you hope to see endure a painful death. It's not just his characters that really stand out either. He seems to have a real ability to create a war scene and bring it to life. His descriptive writing is outstanding and one of the main reasons you'll keep turning the pages in this book. Overall while this is a very slow starter it is certianly worth sticking with. It suddenly changes into a very fast paced story, filled with action and war in...

Review of Wolf of the Plains - Conn Iggulden

There's a She Wolf in your closet....(she wolf-Shakira)

Advantages: Great upbeat tracks with a spin on it
Disadvantages: some of the tracks sound a bit similar

...After eagerly awaiting the return of Shakira to our radio's she is finally back with her 3rd english album to date. Being Shakira's biggest fan (and that is true-she is probably the reason I study spanish) I naturally couldn't wait to get my hands on her new album, She Wolf, named after her 1st single from the album. After buying the cd from Tesco's on my usual weekly shop, I couldn't wait to play it and see what she had to offer this time around-and it didn't dissapoint. After hearing (and loving) her latest release She Wolf, I suspected a slightly different sound in this album-and I was right. This album is very different to her first english album, Laundry service and her 2nd Oral Fixation 2. She has clearly changed musically, and while her 1st album is very emotional with some outstanding track such as (Whenever, wherever...

CRY WOLF (2005)

Advantages: Sophiscated storyline, unpredictable and swaying viewer's opinions throughout.
Disadvantages: Some under developed characters. Not for the classic slasher fans.

Review of Cry Wolf (DVD)

Not so much of a lone wolf

Advantages: Amazing poetry, and a large selection of it
Disadvantages: He can't read poetry aloud...

...Originally I bought this book on a complete spur of the moment decision, if anything I liked the picture of the wolf on the front and I was looking for some new poetry to read. What was originally just an off the cuff, snap shot decision ended up being a scarily good buy. Which is very rare for me!

Crying Wolf: An Old Classic With a Twist in the Tale

Advantages: Beautifully illustrated, witty and well written.
Disadvantages: May be a little dark for sensitive younger readers.

...INTRODUCTION My daughter is turning into a right little drama queen. Last week, while I was working at home, a terrible, awful, high-pitched screech - originating from the living room - reverberated around our house, putting my parental instincts on high alert and galvanising me into immediate action. I hurtled down the stairs, fearing the worst, only to find my unrepentant daughter pointing to a bug the size of a ladybird which had injudiciously alighted on one of her toys. This wasn?t the first time something completely innocuous had resulted in a completely disproportionate reaction from her, and I needed to do something about it. Remembering the excellent cautionary tale of ?The Boy Who Cried Wolf? from a dilapidated book of Aesop?s Fables I had when I was a child, I set about trying to find a contemporary version which my...

Review of The Boy Who Cried Wolf - Tony Ross

Wolf

Advantages:
Disadvantages:

...this movie made me imagine what would it be like, if i were a werewolf. not a blood-thirsty hound, but a sensitive and passionate wolf. he can use it, he can abuse it, he can and he will suffer from it. the werewolves from horror movies are so funny comparing with this drama. mr.nicholson at his best, james spader and ms.pfeiffer as well. what makes me not to give this movie a 10 is the final fight between both werewolves, which was a kind of going back to the old horror werewolf style, but the epilogue with michelle pfeiffer's eyes becoming eyes of a wolf is truly an impressive experience...

Review of Wolf (DVD)

Who's Afraid of the big bad wolf?

Advantages: Tense, psychological horor in the main
Disadvantages: Can get a bit gruesome for some maybe?

...Australia, land of dreams, beach parties, barbecues and back packers. A country where 30,000 people go missing every year (or so this film tells us), fortunately 90% of them turn up or are found within a month. That still leaves 3,000 people who vanish, never to be seen again, or possibly are found after one month? The Australian outback is an unforgiving place and it is possible some of these missing people just got lost there and were never found again, but then it is just as possible that what happened to them is just a little bit more down to who they met rather than where they were. Wolf Creek tells the story of what happened to some of those missing people and is based, take note of that word, on a true story. We open in Broome, a pleasant looking coastal town where two British girls, Chris & Lizzy, are nearing the end...

Review of Wolf Creek (DVD)

Wolf Creek - best horror film in years

Advantages: A clever, entertaining and different horror film
Disadvantages: May be too scary for some

...Wolf Creek is a scary little film about three backpackers whose trip to a crater turns into a hellish nightmare, as they're taken hostage by a rather crazed individual. The plot may seem the same as a million other horror films but it's actually a rather refreshing horror film which doesn't follow the usual formula, and may put you off visiting Australia, where the film is set. Although the film is slow to get started once the three backpackers are taken hostage the movie really picks up some momentum. There is a lot of gore and blood during the final third of the film, including a rather disgusting sequence involving someone's fingers. I'll say no more than this, as I'm sure you get the gist of it. Shot on a budget of $1,000,000, peanuts compared to today's blockbusters, Wolf Creek is a solid horror film with some good performances...
