WOW
I love Robin Williams so I was hesitant to watch this,,,but my man, Dwayne Johnson, did a good job on this one. It was quite different than the original, although the premise is the same. They jump into a video game and start living it. The best part is the characters that they become and how they learn more about themselves by being those characters. I love the movie, the story line and the ending. Amazing

The search for a missing daughter unfolds before our eyes on a computer screen, pulling together clues and information from social media and messaging services. While there have been a couple of decent horror movies recently employing this method of storytelling, none of them have been as effective as this. Edge of seat, intense drama with a few twists and turns towards the end. This may have gripped me a lot more than it normally would, as I have a daughter in her early teens, just starting to build an online life of her own, but wow this movie was amazing!

What more can I say about this incredible series? Im SO sad its over... Ive loved Claire & Tony's story, no matter how painful it was to read and go through at times. The connection, the passion and the perfect fit of these two are just amazing.. I've been rooting for Tony & Claire for books now and am so beyond happy to see them end up in their "happily ever after." Now we an all just sit around and hope that someday Aleatha changes her mind and continues this story! (although Im sure she's tired of hearing that!?) ;-) LOVE LOVE LOVE this series...

Kindle is an amazing piece of technology we are able to use now days. I myself have a Kindle fire. I do use it for reading, normally when I am on night sits with work. As fantastic as this is nothing will ever beat the feel or smell of a real book.
A great bit of technology for ease of access and the shear amount of available content, I use for convieniance but it will never replace real books for me.

I have re-watched this movie yesterday, and it gave me the feelings again!
From the story line, to the cast and the characters, to the issues these characters are facing, this is the best prison based movie I have ever watched.
I loved how they show the meaning of freedom, and for us, that are free, this is not something we often think about. How playing one song might make you feel, or drinking beers on a rooftop on a sunny day.
You don't really know what you have, until you lose it!
Amazing movie!

Wonderful Insight
I was a bit curious about this book as i have watched the series Narcos on Netflix which has been created from this book. The book is much darker and contains a lot of information about Pablo Escobar that was lacking in the series. This shows his childhood and how he grew to become one of the most notorious Drug lords in the world. If you like your biographical stories then this won't let you down. A fantastic read even for those who have not seen the series.

This is one of the best games all around that I have played in a long time. The story is amazing and really pulls you in. I felt like I was constantly on the edge of my seat trying to figure out the mystery of the game. The graphics were gorgeously done, and there are so many little "extras" thrown in around the world that I'm still playing it, trying to find them all. I recommend this game to all of my rpg loving friends and I would love to see a sequel or even a prequel!

Amazing from the Start
From the very first episode starring a chimpanzee named David, this show has been another BBC and Attenborough gem. The entire story is shot beautifully by an experienced camera crew who spends years with the animals. Each episode focuses on a different family group in a different part of the world, giving viewers a glimpse into the group's inner-workings. No hardship or heartbreak is omitted, creating an emotional journey each episode. Each episode ends with a look into the real issues surrounding the conservation of the star species.

As a fan of Taylor Stevens’ Munroe series, I was at once skeptical and hopeful. Could this start to a new series be as inventive, creative, intriguing and amazing as the one I loved but would not see more of? The answer is a big yes! I was so excited when I began this novel and it gripped me in the first few paragraphs. I was thrilled when it introduced complex and bold characters. I was hooked when it provided an interesting and layered plot. I miss Vanessa “Michael” Munroe, but I am very glad for Jack and Jill.
