Advantages: Entertaining, Good Cast
Disadvantages: Nothing new, not as savage as you'd expect

...Like the song said, breaking up is so hard to do. However making a movie about a couple breaking up is not, it's been done so many times and in so many different ways that eventually we'll probably arrive back where we started. The Break-Up is the movie that fuelled the on/off rumours and denials of the summer months regarding the relationship between its stars Vince Vaughn and Jennifer Aniston. It certainly gave the movie some press and kept Heat readers happy. But sometimes the publicity creates a hype that can't be lived up to. Thankfully The Break-Up is a pleasant evenings viewing. Gary (Vince Vaughn) is a guy's guy who likes sports, drinking, buddies and stuff. His fast talking manner charms him into the life of Brooke (Jennifer Aniston) at a baseball game. Through a nifty titles credits photomontage we get the idea... Read review

Advantages: It's cheaper to clean for a Quid
Disadvantages: none

...sewage and therefore, we have a septic tank. I shouldn't really use bleach down the loo as it will kill off the bacteria needed in the tank, so I have to buy a specially formulated product for the job. Although it breaks my heart to spend my money on well known company products, in this case it's a must, so I buy "Powerons Gel" by Harpic. It is very good I must admit and does the job beautifully. It also has a nice lemon fragrance. HOT TIP NO: 6 If there are any real stubborn stains inside my lav, once again, hubbies electric toothbrush works wonders in this area (and he thought he was getting through all those little round brushes cos he cleans his teeth so often!). LIMESCALE: We all hate this don't we. Does your showerhead get caked up with it? If you live in a hard water area, then limescale can be a real nightmare unless you... Read review

Advantages: Cheap, long lasting.
Disadvantages: Contains too meny harsh chemicals for sensitive skin types

...years? So, after this I took the bottle and read all of the ingredients and sure enough it contains alcohol and other scary sounding chemicals, such as, ‘salicylic acid, benzoic acid and parfum’, I then decided I’d give my skin a break from these chemicals (who wants to put acid on their face?) his and see if there was any change in my skin. Low and behold after about a week I could see a dramatic difference in my skin and how much healthier it looked. The usually red, dry and sore skin around my nose, which I had assumed was just some kind of skin condition, had completely disappeared, and the pores around my nose and cheeks that usually looked quite large, were reduced in size. HOW TO USE CLEAN AND CLEAR I used to apply this as directed, to a cotton wool pad and wipe over my face until the pad came away clean. The bottle claims ‘that... Read review

Advantages: convenient, inexpensive, anti bacterial
Disadvantages: smell, cant remove eye make up

..., this certainly wasn’t the case here. My skin has a habit of breaking out into small spots whenever I use something new on it but that never happened with these either. Clean and clear wipes also feel really soft; they glide over your skin without irritating, so long as you take the avoidance of the eye area seriously, I accidentally wiped too near to my eye and it watered for a few seconds afterwards. After using these your skin feels all tingly like you have just splashed your face with cold water. The only drawback I’ve noticed so far is the strong scent. Not pretty or girly more of a dentist or hospital type smell. But I don’t think you should let this put you off. I noticed an improvement in the oiliness of my face within a few weeks this could be due to the anti bacterial properties of the wipes. I must point out though that I didn... Read review

Advantages: Works effectively treating pimples, removing the build-up in pores, a clean-feel, and inexpensive.
Disadvantages: -

...Just last weekend, I came back from a wedding to my friend's house. We were removing our makeup at 3 in the morning, and I went about like I usually do, using a facial cleanser, and washing my face. She then told me about this product and let me try it. After I thought my face was already super clean, using this astringent, there was a whole load of dirt and I stained her towel! (Since I didn't use a cotton pad, though I should have) and I was amazed by how much dirt was built up in my pores. The product gave my face a slight tingly sensation and quickly dried off. It did sting my eyes to the least extent, but only for a few seconds. My skin was so soft and it was absolutely clean. I was also breaking out on my forehead (which is luckily covered by my bangs haha) which after using the product, smoothed out the pimples... Read review

Advantages: a genius showcasing his talent
Disadvantages: packaged on 2 cds when the tracks would fit on one.(im lazy!)

...ok before i start, i'll come clean, i'm a complete ginger fanatic. i make no bones about it, this mans music has been brightening my days for nearly 15 years now (god, how time flies!) & i'm proud to count myself among his fans. it has been my mission for many a year now to bring awareness of his work to the mainstream which, till now has seemed to ellude the great man. for the people unaware of ginger, he is the singer, songwriter, guitarist, & general mayhem creator for my fave band the wildhearts. a group that should have reached the dizzying heights of the likes of the big time festival headlining, stadium selling bands of our time, but thanks to a bad habit of self-destruction just as things were heading their way, this never came. in many ways the wildhearts were the british motley crue, but without the platinum selling...

Advantages: Convenient, deep cleansing and affordable!
Disadvantages: 30 in a pack would be perfect for 1 month's use

...I recently bought Clean & Clear Facial Wipes, mainly because I have always been very lax when it comes to washing my face at bed-time, and decided to try these wipes. The price was also a definite advantage! I have to say, I love these wipes! They work well - my skin is clearer than it has been in a long time, and they don't dry out the skin or leave it feeling tight. My skin is soft and smooth after using the Clean & Clear Wipes and my adult acne has definitely reduced. I break out less, and when I do break out, the acne clears up a lot quicker. What's more, I can lie in bed reading while cleansing. Convenience, cleanliness and cost-effectiveness - what more could you ask for ? I cannot recommend this product strongly enough!... Read review

Advantages: Committed performances.
Disadvantages: A derivative story and pedestrian direction

...two endings before settling on a third. The dialogue captures the essence of Southern American speech while marrying it with the harsh legal banter of the lawyers. Anthony Hopkins is clearly enjoying the twilight of his career; he's doing the roles he wants because he has nothing left to prove. The role of Ted Crawford doesn't stretch him - he's a super-confident manipulator who is yet another variation on Hopkins' most celebrated role; Hannibal Lecter. He's cold, calculating and meticulous, but like any good psychopath can be disarming and he believes himself to be smarter than everybody else. Hopkins is relaxed in the part, but it is marred a little by his odd hybrid accent. Ryan Gosling puts in an intense performance as Willy Beachum; a clean-cut, earnest, proud and ambitious young lawyer. He matches Hopkins scene for scene... Read review

Advantages: Exfoliates, relatively inexpensive
Disadvantages: Messy, too coarse, not sure it actually *prevents* blackheads forming

...are far too coarse and do not break up; when you rinse the scrub off it's difficult to rid yourself of every last bead, and you are left with a trail of them to the plughole. Not nice. This is a bit of a shame, as the cleanser itself feels OK and is not drying. Being a bit stingy, I have persevered with the rest of the tube, and find that it is OK if you don't massage it - but you definitely couldn't use it every day, and I wouldn't buy it again. I have given this product two stars out of five, as it does clean your skin and leave skin smooth, but I have deducted stars for being too coarse, leaving a mess and because it also claims that "a special blackhead-fighting ingredient helps to prevent blackheads from forming". I'm not particularly convinced that this is true, as I have seen little difference. I guess you do get what you pay... Read review
