Pros: instantly captivating! Cons: minimal to none.
The commercial does what it sets out to do: it rivets your attention. Reading through other opinions one thing is clear; from the most pro-gun to the most squeamish anti-gunner, everybody watched the commercial from beginning to end. As opposed to the...

Pros: tongue in cheek...attention getting Cons: somewhat harsh toward imac
At first I thought this ad was going over the edge. After all, us mac lovers could get our feelings hurt. But then I thought about how epinions is geared and what purpose is being served here. This is an attention getting ad and the purpose of epinions...

Pros: gaudy Cons: poor advertisement, wrong message
This is the worst way to get the Epinions name and theme to the public! The site isn't even mentioned in the commercial - there's just a flash of the address at the end of the commercial. It is useful to have an ad that emphasizes the raw, uncensored...

Pros: shows the person behind the review Cons: promotes guns, violence, doesn't say what epions is or does or why to go there
IF this commercial were to air. I would never ever recommend or view this site again.
Why?
It represents only 1 persons epinion of the Imac. Which happen to be the viewpoint of morons that live in the past toting hand guns.
I...

Pros: Eye-catching and funny Cons: Who are they trying to attract?
"Aw, let 'em air," I thought to myself. I must admit, I found the iMac ad quite amusing when first I viewed it. Laughed out loud, actually. The other ads were also funny and clever.
That is, until I read a review by jrk that...

Pros: None Cons: Terrible Review of a Great Computer, Disgusting Commercial
I do not like this commercial in the least. The iMac is an awesome computer in my opinion (in fact, it SWITCHED my opinion from PC to Mac), and it is dirt cheap, too. For $1000 bucks or less, you can't get a decent PC. With the iMac, you get service,...

Pros: None Cons: Violent Expression of Opinion
I like epinions and am happy to see them advertising, the breast pump is funny and informative, same with the snowboarder. But the iMac hater shooting a mac is against what epinions is about. Epinions is about getting good information from normal...

Pros: none Cons: boring, monotone, cheap
This is not a commercial that will force me to stay in the room and watch it. In other words, I would not delay my trip to the bathroom or the refrigerator to watch it. This is boring!
The product may be innovative, the Company may be...

Pros: Funny, true, leave no room for doubt. Cons: The fact an iMac has to be in it.
Man, I'm so glad in this world of political correctness, someone has the brass smalls to reach out with various projectiles of hot lead and tell it like it is. We ALL want to blow the mouse away with a .45 because it doesn't work. We ALL want to take a...

Pros: attention getter, amusing, cathartic Cons: anti-gun advocates will probably freak out
My initial reaction to this controversial commercial is just laughter. Checking my e-mail, I just got a letter from a friend with an iMac-she started off by saying she wanted to throw the little @#$^%@^!! purple thing out the window because she had...

Pros: none at all! Cons: Plain jibberish!
This commercial is a waste of the viewers time- if I want to hear someone rattle off his complaint about something I can just listen to my husband. All I got from watching this was an unhappy consumer blowing off steam when instead of down-talking one...

Pros: I felt that the review was funny as well as informative Cons: He could have included another two downfalls of the utter crapulance named iMac
After viewing the "I Hate iMac" ad, I not only felt a bit of laughter bubbling up, but I also felt I understood the reviewer's point. Unfortunately, many of the "concerned" out there are too ignorant to understand what he is trying to...

Pros: This ad might get a certain genre of people to come to the site. Cons: This ad shows nothing positive of the site. Nothing positive period.
After reviewing this commercial, I was left thinking that it was an advertisement for a computer company in competition with Apple. I had no idea that it was designed to lure people to the Epinions site until I read the actor's comments. If I were...

Pros: Funny, shows safety gear Cons: Bad gun use image, relies on shock value
Jay and epinions,
I live in an area of traditional gun use. Whether used for food hunting, recreation or defense guns are an almost everyday part of life for many people. Many are very concerned about limitations being placed on their...

Pros: Hilarious Cons: Not completely destroyed
This commercial is an effective commercial for several reasons. The first reason is that is contains a gun. This is a very good part of the commercial. He uses humor to show the weak points of the iMac, instead of just talking about it. This gets...
