Jeremy King (346 KP) rated Movie 43 (2013) in Movies
Jul 5, 2019
I just finishes watching this with my friend, he would gave it a 8 if he was on here. Me i give it a strong 5. I am a fan of short film and this is a collection of short film. This has a cast of major starts but i am not a fan of movies that just try to shock you. I found the short films very predictable so maybe that is why i was not shocked. if you want a ztupid movie to kill time and maybe be grossed out with this might be the one to watch. If i had the chance to rewatch it i would say NO!

This book was very short - I read it in 1 day.
I prefer books to be a bit longer - it wasn't really long to even get into.
It's a crime genre which I love but it was too short to real be much of a crime book that I would normally read.
Giving a review on a short story is not easy as I didn't see the characters grow and story didn't really go anywhere.
I wouldn't read the second book in series.
I would recommend to someone who losses interest quickly or doesn't like reading a long book.
I received a complimentary copy of the book from the author via Voracious Readers Only.

Oh my days, I was so excited to read this book and it didn't disappoint! I loved the style of writing and I felt like we got to know all the characters, although a little slow in places I loved how it played out. I didn't guess the ending at all so that was a shock, although I feel it could have been a few chapters longer with possibly more explanation and a little bit more of a wrap up of everything, for this reason I think it should be a series! Not because I am sad it ended or anything *Sniff* *sniff* It is just a wonderful book full of mystery and suspense!

My mother read me a chapter a night when I was old enough to understand this book. I absolutely loved it!

An excellent book on writing. I think that this is a great book. I recommend it. Especially if you're a writer.

If you like a little camp, a little porn, and a lot of horror you have to see this movie grindhouse cult film. Dyanne Thorne is incredible but the premise of the movie is a laugh. I am glad i found this on a free movie streaming site. I would have not paid to see this.
If you choose to watch this I recommendation is to have a few drinks and then watch. I would skip this movie.

Caffeinated Fae (464 KP) rated Into the Wild in Books
Jul 10, 2018
I read this as part of my 2014 reading challenge. This book was recommended to me by one of my close friends. This was definitely a book that I would expect a hiker, climber, and all around outdoorsy person to read.
I have to admit, I had a hard time reading this book. The writing was outstanding but I found the book itself a little dull and honestly, a little frustrating.
As many of my friends know, I grew up with my parents working in insurance. I also grew up working in insurance. This means that I have a (as my dad calls it) risk manager's mindset. That means that I had a hard time idealizing a man that took such a high risk with his life and refused most of the help that was offered.
I have to say that I admire this man's ideals and his bravery but I also feel that he was fairly foolish. I don't think that he was foolish for going out into the wilderness alone but I feel that he was foolish for not being able to swallow his pride and accept help. I think that he was foolish for pushing his family and his friends away.
This is the second Jon Krakauer book that I have read and I have to say that I his writing is spectacular but a little dull. I felt that I was reading a text book and not a novel. I think this is simply because I like my books to invoke emotions in me and all I felt in this book was frustration and deep sadness for anyone that knew and loved McCandless.
All in all, this wasn't my typical read but I'm glad that I took time to read it.

I love Jim Carrey and I don't think there's a single one of his films that I don't like. This one is no different. I also really loved Zooey Deschanel! I thought she did a really great job and it's fun to see her play a more intense character than that of Jess from New Girl. I think the plot of this film is really interesting and I think they did a really good job of running with it and really milking it.
I could watch this movie again at some point so that's a good enough reason for me to like it.
