My intent was to write a review about the flick but I was quite amused by the review I found by Ann Lewinson of CT.com so I chose to post it instead. Here is her condensed version.<br /><br />"Ours is the age of the mash-up, and if next summer brings Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter (Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is slated for 2013), this summer we get Cowboys & Aliens, which at the very least is truth in advertising. You have your cowboys and you have your aliens, and you have your bandits and Apaches who join the search party to rescue their abducted kin, and it's <a href="http://jamesbond.com/">James Bond</a> and <a href="http://indianajones.com/">Indiana Jones</a> (or is that <a href="http://lucasarts.com/">Hans Solo</a> ?) leading the searchers, which just mashes up the mash-up even more."<br /><br />"The aliens, for their part, are hulking reptilian giants whose mucoid torsos conceal extra hands.

Mineral absorption releases toxins from the blood to the skin and the skin then releases the toxins into the water, thus: detoxification. It is thought that a 30 minute bath {HIGH in minerals} is equal in cleansing to a 3 day fast but {MUCH} more enjoyable.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpmGKN5x_IputYxMCgNsQ0-jH0veSgTbhFfuyBlhX-SQ6GzsHSFrExCWtvyq-qb06qtWoqhV269tlXax_9Xq_5aq9G2y0G2sJz82HyYTtY0OMdIBET4YI9_e1Ilvbqzh-rprJF4ZK8jpRY/s1600/salt.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612273709581455666" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpmGKN5x_IputYxMCgNsQ0-jH0veSgTbhFfuyBlhX-SQ6GzsHSFrExCWtvyq-qb06qtWoqhV269tlXax_9Xq_5aq9G2y0G2sJz82HyYTtY0OMdIBET4YI9_e1Ilvbqzh-rprJF4ZK8jpRY/s320/salt.jpg" /></a> <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/59042247/mutiny-bath-minerals-8oz-amber-jar">SteamBath Factory</a> bath minerals include 3 {luxury} salts: Israeli Dead Sea Salts, Himalayan Salts and Ultra Epsom Salts.

<br />Friston has been designing and handcrafted jacket lapel pins, rings, necklaces and earrings since 'back in the day' of NEW WAVE. He now focuses his creative energies designing STEAMPUNK jewelry using "re-purposed" vintage jewelry, trinkets, and hardware that represent the era of Steampowered Engineering and the Romance of the Victorian period.
<br />
<br />The Victorian era relates to Hawaii's monarchy at that time, so many of his pieces incorporate the Hawaiian monarch, Victorian, and the industrial revolution of the 1890's.
