...constant changes of character do justice to the often excellent acting. Only Page Leong (Nina and Masha) really seems comfortable with the constant transitions, managing to define and distinguish her two roles without overacting. Shishir Kurup solves this conundrum by hamming up Sorin so that he can play Taper/Trigorin with deadpan nonchalance.

Last week the whining became too much for Suck, a trendy online journal, which posted a spirited complaint about HotWired's "constant needling" and noted that rival bashing swapped places only with "back patting" on HotWired's Web pages.

For months afterward, plagued by a constant ringing in one ear, he tormented himself over his first reaction to the explosion that threw him 15 feet onto his back.
