Yoshi (40 KP) rated Dance or Die by Family Force 5 in Music

The amazing costumes (3 more)
Awesome music videos
One, two, three, four, I declare a dance war!
Did somebody say remix album???
Classic FF5 is still the best
While not all the songs on this album are great (tbh all their break up songs rather suck), Radiator is the song that got me into this band. Probably since it was the only one I could understand over screaming, drums, and bass at the concert, but that is definitely the sign of a good concert. This album is best when blasted as high a volume as you are able.

Oustanding
I saw this film 3D at the cinema and I was blown away. It was so surreal and utterly transporting. Even now years later I still love to watch it and am eagerly looking forward to the next one.
This is the kind of movie that does best on a large screen with decent sound projection else it loses some of its magic, (I have small tv in the lounge) despite that I loved the concept of the film and the landscapes were amazing.

Range of quests (3 more)
Graphics
Beautiful map design
Good for both pro's and noobs
Loved it
Open map worlds are my favourite types of games and this has definitely been added to my list of top 10 recommended games! The story has an amazing level of intricacy to the story which creates very good immersion when playing however is also a game you can put down for a week or two and come back and pick up very quickly and easily without trying to work out what happened last! Controls are good nice level of customisation for the character and how you want to play the game.

Cranky Dad UK (11 KP) rated The Incredibles 2 (2018) in Movies
Jul 17, 2018 (Updated Jul 17, 2018)
Incredibly good fun.
Incredibles 2 is a fast paced, funny and visually jaw dropping experience.
The story carries on immediately after the first one finishes and deals with the struggle of parenthood, in an intelligent and relatable way.
All the laughs and stunning action sequences are there as hoped for and boy do the set pieces look amazing.
It's a shame we have had to wait so long for this sequel but when you watch it, it feels like the super family have never been away.
A superbly entertaining sequel.

Cracking twist
Well shot
Refreshing storyline
What a twist!
Oh my. Been waiting to watch this after watching the trailer a couple of months ago and just watched it today on Netflix on it’s debuting day.
I won’t write too much on the storyline as I do not want to giveaway any spoilers to the amazing twist that lies within and will just advise you to watch it.
If you love sci-fi, you’ll love this film.
If you love thrilling, edge of seat stuff, you’ll love this film.
If you love twists in films, you’ll absolutely adore this film!

Ivana A. | Diary of Difference (1171 KP) rated The Godfather: Corleone's Empire in Tabletop Games
Aug 1, 2018
I have only played this once at the board game meetings. It is an amazing game, but can be pretty rough for a first time player. I was so excited to be a thug. You get into your role, and steal stuff, do illegal business and try to collect as much cash as you can to win the game. I loved the board and I loved the mechanics - but I think you do need experience for this one to get the hang out of it and actually manage to win.
Great fun, even with 4+ players. Game gets pretty long if many people play though. I would definitely play this again!

Lauren Louise Reynolds (45 KP) rated Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine in Books

Eleanor is my hero
Contains spoilers, click to show
Oh man, oh man.
This book is unbelievably amazing.
*spoilers*
I love Eleanor and how the book was split into her good days, bad days and finally her better days.
Being someone who has been in the depressive state as Eleanor had been I could relate so deeply I cried. She didn't realise how important and loved she was to people around her.
She got help, so incrediblely brave.
Finding out Mummy was all in her head hit me like a tonne of bricks.
Her views made me laugh and I love the Britishness of everything.
And the end was incredible!

Erika (17789 KP) rated Terminal (2018) in Movies

Well, now I know why this movie was buried and barely showed at any theaters. It was kind of a mess. The aesthetic was very much like Hotel Artemis, which was about the best part of that movie.
Some of this film was easy to guess, and the reveals/twist weren't all that mind blowing. It made it uninteresting for me. The only thing I liked about Margot Robbie in the film was the amazing red coat she wore. The story line that was the most interesting out of the uninteresting was Simon Pegg's character. That was the only thing that kept me watching.

First of all, a huge thank you to the author for sending me a copy of this book since I won the giveaway on Goodreads.
I am not much of a religious person, and that might be the only reason why this book didn't really touch me at all.
I liked the story though, amazing description and pace, I loved how descriptive the characters were and actually very friendly and lovable, but when it would come to the ''preaching'' side of things - not my piece of cake. Though for the ones that enjoy the religious side of things, and stories about God, this would be the perfect book for you!

Wow! Sylvain Neuvel has done it again! I was so excited when I was approved for this ARC because I absolutely LOVE these books and Only Human is just as magnificent as the first two. I started reading it earlier this afternoon and finished it at a little after 1am; I couldn't sleep without knowing how it ended!
I'll post a longer review closer to the release date, I need a minute to process all my thoughts on this one. Just know that it is an incredible end to an amazing trilogy!
**Many thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the ARC!! All opinions are my own.**
