Chloë McTaggart (48 KP) rated Chilling Adventures of Sabrina in TV
Nov 17, 2018
Nothing special
While the concept is good, the plot is loose. It raises more questions than it answers and leaves the viewers needing more. The acting is... average. Much like Kristen Stewart, Shipka seems to favour the same facial expressions over and over. All that aside, it's a good watch or the less eagle eyed and critical among us, though somewhat unsatisfying.

This book was full of insight. If you've ever wondered how some museums got certain antiquities, this has a lot of answers. While, it doesn't happen with every single museum, it still makes you wonder. This book focuses on the J. Paul Getty Museum in LA. It was immensely readable, and I loved it. The book also had an amazing bibliography, which led me to other books about the same subject.

Mind bending and such a visual experience
I can understand why people may not enjoy this film but, I found it really captivating. By the end you 're left with more questions than answers after such a mind boggling journey throughout the film. The visuals in it are stunning and the cast is strong. I enjoyed watching this film a lot when I don't usually like sci fi films.

4.5 stars.
This is not my usual read at all. I tend to like nice, gentle love stories and this is rather dark, but I was captivated and intrigued beyond belief by Richard.
It kept me guessing where it was going: Why did he want Cassidy? Did he kill his wife? Where were his children?
I certainly wasn't disappointed when I found out the answers. A brilliant story.

Peter G. (247 KP) rated Bird Box (2018) in Movies
Jun 5, 2019
Not bad attempt to mix "The Happening" and "A Quiet Place" Sandra Bullock is as always watchable these days in this mash up disaster movie.
It's really not as bad as others say, and the story is somewhat engaging though full of plot holes.
The cast are pretty decent, however John Malkovich is terribly underused and his character hamstrung by the average script, raises more questions than answers!

Mar 9, 2018
Aaron is surprised when he is asked to find a missing housewife. He gets frustrated when everyone seems to block his attempts to get answers. But when he stumbles on a dead body, things really get interesting.
I loved this book. Great characters and funny humor kept me turning pages until the end.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2163 KP) rated Mr. Monk and The Two Assistants (Mr. Monk, #4) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
The fourth of the Monk tie-in novels answers the question, What would happen is Sharona returned? His former assistant accidentally comes back into his life after her husband is arrested for murder. At Natalie's urging, Monk begins to look into it the case. This is another fun entry and will please fans of the TV series.
