The Mask is a comedy made in 1994 and was part of the trifecta (the others being "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective" and "Dumb & Dumber") that propelled Jim Carrey from unknown to superstar. It also made a star of another unknown actor, this time being Cameron Diaz.
Jim Carrey plays Stanley Ipkiss, a bank clerk and a really nice guy. But, he is a bit of a pushover and never really stand up for himself. After a particularly bad day, he stumbles upon a mask, that he finds out depicts Loki, the Norse god of mischief. When he puts on the mask, he turns into a green faced, wacky, snappy dresser! He's confident, romantic and not afraid to fight for what he believes in, so you could say he just brought out what Stanley is really like inside himself. So, together with his dog, Milo, they go out and paint Edge City red! Well, green really.

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of The Mask (DVD)
Advantages: Superb graphics, great sound/voice overs, interesting missions, and very complex Disadvantages: Needs a lot of patience, difficult AI, slow movement of graphics, and no multiplayer
The first submarine simulation game I played when I was a kid and despite its retro status, I still find myself playing it once in a while. Even though I mainly played the Amiga version when I was a kid, the Mega Drive version is literally the same and I'm currently trying it out again years later through an emulator.
Plotline
Taking place during the Cold War between the USA and the Soviet Union. 688 Attack Sub uses the what if scenarios and shows the worst what could have happened all those years ago. Starting from minor threats between the two countries and eventually turning into a world war.
Gameplay
The entire interface gives you that instant feeling that you're inside a submarine and in total command. As you can see from one of my pictures, there are several stations that need to be commanded and waiting for orders ...
Advantages: Low price, better build than others at this price Disadvantages: none so far
Better quality for the price than many other well known brands. This Amica washes really well and has a big drum. The program selector is solid, as are the buttons. The door opens wide and the drum is easy to load. The machine has loads of programs and the everday wash is great. Not too noisy . The drain filter is easy to get at and has a handy hose on it to empty it before you open it. Nice large door . Can be fussy about spinning if the load is unbalanced but many machines are now. Quick wash is 32 mins and a longer everyday wash is under an hour and gives good results. The machine is cold fill only like most are now. This is also a slimline machine at just under 51 cm deep so it fits well into a kitchen space even if there are pipes and drain behind as most machine s are 60 cm deep and stick out. I found it rinses well and does quick ...
