The movie is good fun, excellent in places. Better than Kill Bill, very well filmed with some fantastic scenes. However, it is not in the same league as Reservoir Dogs or Pulp Fiction.

She is cute, but I am fed up with all these lies about "Global Warming" mythology.

Realist - either you have an all-seeing scientific knowledge far beyond the powers of the majority of scientists around the world, or perhaps you take anti-global warming arguments as "fact" simply because it fits…

If you haven't seen it, I recommend you watch 'Super Size Me'. It'll put you off McDonalds for a very long time, fancy quarter pounders or not. Personally, give me a Hotto Motto bento anytime.

No one has ever been able to repeat Spurlock's "findings" in his documentary, because it…

I'm torn on this one, I voted no because when you get too many years beyond the crime important evidence is lost and witnesses die. The chance for a fair trial diminishes with each passingt year.

If that is the case, the evidence will be judged inadmissable. Let this be…

I think a statute of limitation is the cornerstone of any just society.

What? Why? I cannot fathom what you are getting at here. Let me get this straight - you believe that evading detection or arrest for a relatively short period of time, and so avoiding being brought to…

People who need a book to tell them where to ate are in my view exactly the same as those that look at the popular music charts to decide what music they like..

What a fatuous comment. Would they also be like people who buy a car magazine to help…

The relative "poverty" used here and in countries such as Britain is a very abitrary and subjective definition, created and used by the left as an argument for social reform and redistribution. To call it "poverty" in an objective sense, as they tend to do, is misleading. What is more…

Narita is a pretty useless airport and I have not been through since 2002. I use Seoul's lovely Incheon to fly in and out of Japan. Using a local Japanese airport and flying to Incheon removes most of the stress and the queues. Changing flights there is easy and stress-free.…

Halloween is about children dressing up and adults indulging in infantile fun, rather than a pagan suspension of taboos. Perhaps this artist's work is in that case the essence of modern Halloween.
