Wonderful Wonderful by The Killers
Wonderful Wonderful by The Killers
2017 | Alternative, Indie
An album without an obvious theme or concept it may be, but somehow, it’s still quintessentially The Killers. It may not be the all-out stadium epic we’ve come to expect from the band but it’s still wonderful

It does an amazing job of showcasing what it takes to be an elite athlete, while also taking a closer look at today’s hook up culture. I loved every minute of it.

The Martian (2015)
The Martian (2015)
2015 | Sci-Fi
Ridley Scott has managed to take a simple story of a man thought lost in space and turn it into a heroic adventure of survival, drama and emotion. Easily within my top 3 of the year

'Everywhere in the universe there is complex life to be found I reckon there will be Tetris sooner or later. I hope they get a game as good as Tetris Effect to truly do it justice.'

Once again, Patrick Gale has written a novel that tugs at our heartstrings - and in this case, also plays on the strings of the cello! This beautifully written coming-of-age story is both poignant and uplifting. You can read my full review of this novel on my blog here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2020/02/09/tempo-of-progression/
  
The LEGO Ninjango Movie  (2017)
The LEGO Ninjango Movie (2017)
2017 | Action, Adventure, Animation
A blink-and-you’ll-miss-it gag involving the infamous “Wilhelm scream” woke me up, as did the introduction, 50 minutes in, of a dreaded “ultimate weapon” that deftly mixes a live-action feline with the CGI Ninjago team.

Stronger (2016)
Stronger (2016)
2016 | Drama
Though Gordon Green is probably right that “Stronger” won’t please everyone, it should. Between all the crying and yelling and the Boston accents, “Stronger” is an actor’s movie. Gordon Green’s touch is subtle.
  
Total War: Warhammer II
Total War: Warhammer II
2017 | Strategy
There’s not as much progress as I’d have liked to see in the politics and diplomacy systems, which show only modest improvements. But each of the four factions is a distinct and fun-to-play addition to the growing roster.
Critic- TJ Hafer
Original Score: 8.5 out of 10

With an opening line of “<i>Patrick Owen managed seven years at Highfields Secondary School without punching a pupil in the face</i>” you just know this is going to be an “interesting” read and it doesn’t disappoint.

Home Again (2017)
Home Again (2017)
2017 | Comedy, Drama, Romance
Home Again isn't worth getting worked up over. It's not particularly good, is completely tone deaf, and makes no sense at all. But chances are you'll forget about it long before you see Witherspoon again in something much better.
