Or.... Dark Universe the beginning.

It was on so I watched it, as you do. I remember being gripped and impressed by the first 20 mins, it's a good start and does its job well. The rest of the film is totally watchable. I've seen that it gets some stick but the story line is solid, it's funny in parts with a good amount of action. The cast is more that decent. I fancied the Princess Ahmanet but, that just a personal positive for me and to be fair she does a great job. Tom Cruise does his job well as does Annabelle Wallis. Of course there's a big set up for more of the same. Not too much to complain about other than I've seen similar before. Don't be put off by the overly negative and easily influenced.

Cheesy fun adventure

I can see why so many like this, especially if they watched it in their childhood. I only saw it a few years ago and it looks very dated now. Very cheesy, predictable but with some funny moments. It's ok but compared to the likes of @Willow (1988) or @Krull (1983) also released in the 80's it doesn't fare well.

What a fantastic book! It is well written with a great plot and characters. This book is full of action, adventure, magic and romance. It is fast paced and I couldn't put it down. Gia is a great main character she is strong, smart and witty but she is also practical. Drake is very creative I love the whole book jumping concept. Drake's world building is slowly and beautifully done. I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book from Netgalley.

I recorded this off Film 4, where the description stated it was about a lady that had made a significant invention. I was intrigued and wondered what life-changing, state-of-the-art object she had created. I nearly spat my drink out when it was revealed to be a mop but I was curious to see what happened to Joy and her mop. As you can imagine this is no action and adventure movie but it's a true story and kind of interesting.

This game is a must-buy for anyone who enjoys action-adventure games. It is the same game we all love from the first three entries in the series, yet with many updates (including the new leveling system, and social system). The new leveling system drives you to want to make good progress more quickly, and the new social system gives players rewards for sticking with a particular weapon, for example. Overall, a very good game.
