Fun Adventure
Another film that seemed to pop out of no where. A light hearted comedy adventure film. In a similar mould to @Romancing the Stone (1984) The cast is very good, Daniel Radcliffe seems to have reprised his role from Now you see me 2 as a crazy rich villian in a suit after some ancient treasure in a lost city. So he kidnaps an author of a romance, action book believing her research could hold a clue.
It's pretty silly stuff but it definitely leans more towards the comedy side than anything else and thankfully is genuinely funny and has a a witty script. So if you are looking for a laugh with some funny action scenes thrown in, check this out.

The first companion chronicle with Susan is a wonderfully cool 1st Doctor adventure, with some very nifty sci-fi concepts that feel like something 60s Doctor Who would have attempted. Carol Ann Ford captures Susan perfectly, with nary a hint that 40 years have passed since she last played the role. For more on this title, visit www.travelingthevortex.com

Great characters
Great action adventure
Another very good Marvel and almost as good as the first film. Some of the set piece action scenes are great. A good story, not quite sure about the voice for Ultron. If you enjoyed the first film and like Iron Man, Capt America films this is for you.

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

A Relatable Technology-Driven Future
This story has a direction as soon as you jump in. You are with Wade against all odds trying to find the Egg before the Sixers do and inevitably ruin the game and the world. This fast-paced sci-fi adventure belongs on everyone’s to-read list.
Also see the movie, it’s pretty good.

Loved this experience
I fell in love with this game. I loved the main characters, the story development and soundtrack. I love the mental health aspects tackled and the overall concept. Plus the multiple endings and story choices plus beautiful art work.

Hobbit Bilbo Baggins gets talked into going on an adventure filled with danger and excitement. While I've never gotten into Lord of the Rings, I did enjoy this prequel. Still a bit slow moving, but entertaining.
