Advantages: Lightweight, slim, beautiful design, great value for money Disadvantages: possibly bend cards if stored for long periods of time (untested)
I previously carried a small USB key on my keyring as my portable memory solution. But I found that more and more, I was having to transfer information from either a PDA or digital camera, and a USB key just didn't work for this.
So I found the solution in the SanDisk SD Plus memory card - it is the size of a normal SD memory card, but also folds in half to reveal a USB adapter which can be plugged into any USB port. Brilliant solution, except that they aren't very sturdy. I was worried about the card breaking in my wallet, so I needed something to protect it.
This is where the Aluminium Memory CardHolder from Proporta comes in. It is the same length and width as a standard credit card (85mm x 54mm), and is only 4mm thick (about as thick as 3 credit cards sitting on top of each other). It is very light as well, weighing in ...
Advantages: A chance to see three of the best actors ever, together. Disadvantages: See opinion.
The Score undoubtedly wins the unnecessary film award and deserves to be remembered only for bringing together the three best method actors of their generations, namely; Brando, De Niro and Norton. I call the film unnecessary, because why on earth do we need another crime/thriller movie with Brando or De Niro when we already have The Godfather, Casino and Goodfellas to name a few.

Edward Norton is the only actor with an argument for being in this film, and even he is already worthy of better things than shoddy heist movies. For Gods sake! the guy was in Fight Club and American History X, he doesn’t have to appear in this shameless showcase of talent.
The Score is basically just a distant ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of The Score (DVD)
Advantages: good cast, well shot, entertaining Disadvantages: slow pace will deter some people, nothing new
A glance at the poster for the score and you instantly have something sold to you without even knowing what the film is about. The names De Niro, Norton and Brando as well as Angela Bassett should be enough to at least peak your interest. Not only that but it's directed by Yoda/Fozzy Bear himself Frank Oz!
Now these names along have already affected people's perceptions of the film. With a cast of great talent it seems that we should get one of the greatest films ever to grace the screen purely because of past acting performances. Well The Score isn't an amazing film but as entertainment it's certainly a cut above the rest.
De Niro plays Nick, a seasoned professional thief whose speciality is cracking safes with precision and close detail. He has everything planned down to the last detail and as a result has never been caught. By ...
