DVD Reviews

Green Hornet Shakes Up the Superhero Genre
Jeffrey Huston
The Green Hornet is like the goofy twin to The Dark Knight. Both have billionaire protagonists who don masks, drive cool cars, and are in the pursuit of justice — except one is the brooding Christian Bale while the other is the guy from Knocked Up.

Today's Devotional

Social Gospel? (from "Alternative View with Dr. Tony Evans")
...bearing with one another in love (Eph. 4:2).
I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures (1 Cor. 15:3).
The message of the Gospel is narrow, not broad.

The state of Sbarro: America's least essential restaurant.
By Justin Peters
Posted Wednesday, May 4, 2011, at 4:09 AM ET

Customers order lunch at a Sbarro restaurant. Click image to expand.When the pizza chain Sbarro filed for bankruptcy in April, analysts speculated on the cause of the restaurant's problems. Industry expert Blair Chancey cited a "perfect storm" of adverse conditions--rising commodity prices, too-rapid growth, increased competition, and a decline in mall traffic. I, however, have a simpler explanation: Nobody likes Sbarro. Devoid of atmosphere, charm, and gustatory relevance, with no signature product to call its own, it's America's least essential restaurant.

That, at least, is my impression--and as one of the least essential people I know, I feel confident broadcasting it. The food there is mediocre and unimaginative--assembly-line Italian festooned with cheese and sugary tomato sauce, a bland version of the homey fare found at postseason soccer banquets or church fundraising suppers. It's expensive, too--a doughy, oleaginous slice of plain pizza costs $3.49 nationwide, and you're certainly not paying extra for ambiance. The prevailing sentiments among online reviewers alternate between disgust ("If you like pizza dough that tastes like clay, then this would be your spot to go") and resignation ("I stopped by the Sbarro at the Philly airport because the line was shorter than the philly cheesesteak line").
