The Con Artist (DVD)

The Con Artist has the supreme injustice of being released straight to DVD, rather than receiving a proper theatrical run. This is not due in any fashion to the quality of the picture, and really does speak to the fact that American audiences will not give a movie a chance if it does not contain sufficient star power. The Con Artist is headed up by Rossif Sutherland and Rebecca Romijn…

Dora’s Big Party Pack (DVD Set)

Dora’s Big Party Pack is the latest release by Nickelodeon, and it is a boxed set that contains three different DVDs – Dora’s Big Birthday Adventure, Super Silly Fiesta, and It’s A Party!. This bundled set gives viewers nearly five hours of material, while ensuring that each of the individual releases continue to contain the material that they did when they were originally released. Each DVD has a video quality…

Mike’s Hard Lemonade Lite

It is the middle of summer, and the temperatures continue to rise. I know that personally, I do not like heavy beers or alcohol as the mercury climbs. Mike’s Hard Lemonade understands this premise, and has released to the market a Lite effort. While ostensibly to corner the market for those that like the more fruit-based malt beverages but are still watching their figures, I contend that the Mike’s Lite…

G.H. Mumm Cordon Rouge (Champagne)

G.H. Mumm has been creating champagne since 1827, and represents for many the pinnacle of the champagne style. Unfortunately, I must admit that I was not familiar with the Cordon Rouge before receiving a bottle for review. After opening the bottle, there is a nuanced nose that blends together a number of distinct notes – a bit of citrus, some woodiness, and even a little bit of smokiness can all…

Lipolyze (Weight Loss)

There are a large amount of supplements on the market, and the amount only decreases slightly when it comes to pills that are intended to increase the amount of weight that individuals lose. Where many of these products rely on caffeine for weight loss, Lipolyze’s blend of different materials is a much more holistic and ensures that the weight that is lost is kept off. This is due to what…

Audio Technica ATH-ANC23 (Headphones)

The versatility of the ATH-ANC23 phones is considerable. The design of the headphones is such that it is perfect for those that are working out, either on their cardio or their weight days. However, the noise cancelling aspect of the headphones increases their versatility. When this option is switched on, a listener is lost in their own world. The volume needed to bleed through the headphones is nothing less than…

Corona (4.6% ABV)

For whatever reason, it seems as if the college scene is single-mindedly obsessed with the beer efforts of the biggest breweries. Whenever we have any sort of get-together at NeuFutur, individuals bring their own Bud or similar product rather than take advantage of our beer selection. Where many of the different brews that we receive are from small-time breweries, we requested Corona for review. The surprising thing about this beer…

Nordic Naturals Complete 3-6-9 (Fish Oil)

I believe that there are more fish oil and omega-containing products on the market than any other sort of health product. Simply put, there is a tremendous amount of variation that is here in terms of quality and what each of these supplements contain. It is thus vitally important to research the differences between these products, and to really understand what one is getting into before purchasing a product. The…

Natrol DHEA (120 Capsules)

DHEA is one of those supplements that I must admit that I was not too familiar with when we first received product for review. We had heard a lot about it, but nothing about what it was supposed to do. However, we can speak from experience now that it works, and in particular, it affects a number of different parts of an individual. Specifically, DHEA effects how an individual deals…

Bang Olufsen Earset 3i (Headphones / Headset)

I come from a period in which headphones had to be large to be good in quality. We received the new headphones from Bang Olufsen, the Earset 3i, for review a few days ago and I was a little skeptical. However, these headphones have a tremendous amount of functionality and should be seen as must-buy for anyone that is in the market for a new pair. There are a number…
