4.0 out of 5 stars The damages a gossip makes, Nov 5 2000
In spite of all the negative critics about "Gossip", I really enjoyed this movie. The plot is interesting and shows the damages a simple gossip can produce. "Gossip" is not a regular teenage movie, with beautiful faces and no plot. The cast was very well chosen and the soundtrack is good.

3.0 out of 5 stars Whitney is a legend!, Nov 5 2000
This review is from: Greatest Hits (DVD)
This DVD is a celebration of Whitney Houston sucess. I must say I like her a lot, though I'm not fanatic for her. The videos are well chosen, especially those form "Bodyguard". Surely, some of her videos are missing in this release --Shoop, Shoop song, It's not right (dance version) etc. The special area is very interesting, showing live performances of Whitney and exclusive interviews. I enjoyed the photo section for the greatest hits CD cover, the interview with Clive Davis and her live performance of "My love is your love"in Germany. If you like Whitney, you must have this DVD!

4.0 out of 5 stars Best quality R&B, Nov 5 2000
This review is from: The Heat (Audio CD)
I must confess R&B is not my favorite kind of music, but Toni Braxton is simply amazing. She has a gifted voice and nobody beats her when she sings balads. After SECRETS, I was hoping she'd make another fine album, and "The Heat" came to fulfill all my expectations. The album is soft and cool, recommended for all ocasions. "He wasn't man enough" has become a hit, and has very good lyrics. "Spanish Guitar" is a balad, just like "Un-break my heart", and it is destined to be a sucess. Actually, is one of the most played songs in brazilian radios. I also liked "I'm still breathing", "Fairy tale" and "Speaking in tongues".

The album is great and I really hope Toni has a very long carrer!

5.0 out of 5 stars Go on, go on....Leave me breathless!, Nov 3 2000
This review is from: In Blue (Audio CD)
IN BLUE is the third studio album of The Corrs, which is a very popular irish band around the world. For those who have never heard about them, the Corrs are known for their wonderful talent as well as for the quality of their songs, which are a perfect combination between celtic music and pop.

IN BLUE is already a top seller everywhere, including US. It is surely different from other CDs of this band, since it does not bring the irish tradition identified in the their previous works.

Produced by Mutt Lange (Shania Twain's husband), In Blue has all the elements to please pop listeners. "Breathless" and "Irresistible" --the first 2 singles -- are cool tracks. The balads worth to be praised as well: "all the love in the world", "one night" and "somebody for someone". "No more cry" is one of my favorites, in spite of the fact that it is a very sad song, dedicated to Jean Corr, their mother, who unfortunately died of cancer during the recording process.

Summing up, if you appreciate good music, buy this CD!

2.0 out of 5 stars Rebel without a cause, Nov 3 2000
This review is from: May Morning (DVD)
"May Morning" centers on the conflict surrounding an italian student, Valerio,(Alessio Orano) who cannot fit into undergraduate life at Oxford University by refusing to conform with college tradition and code of behavior. With his unconventional attitude, Valerio is destined to produce unexpected and sometimes tragic results.

This is surely a cult movie for those who like the 70's, especially because of the good soundtrack, composed by The Tremeloes. The casting is fine, but I belive the plot could be better than it is. When I first saw the DVD case, I did not know what to expect, mainly because I never read a critic about this movie. I can assure you this film is not recommended for those who dislike violent films.

In my opinion, the DVD version lacks some technical details. The british accent is very strong and the movie is dubbed most part of the time, which makes it hard to fully understand what the cast is saying.

4.0 out of 5 stars A perfect CD for Ally fans!, Nov 13 1999
If you like Ally McBeal, and enjoyed the first soundtrack, you've got to buy this second album right now!

Despite the fact that many songs are new to fans of the show, it's worth buying this CD, since it brings the great interpretation of Vonda Shepard to the songs that will make Ally's mind in this new season of the show.

All the songs are good, especially "To Sir, with Love" (duet with Al Green) and Lennon's "World without Love".

Best wishes,

Rodrigo Medina
