David McK (3547 KP) rated 6 Underground (2019) in Movies
Jan 27, 2020
Ryan Reynolds starring Michael Bay movie, with Ryan as a billionaire who has faked his own death and is now leading an undercover team of vigilantes - each of whom has also faked their own death - in order to take down a brutal dictator.
As it's a Michael Bay film, you know pretty much what to expect: lots of action (choreographed, admittedly, to some nice soundtrack) but with little coherence!
At least Ryan Reynolds looks like he's having fun ...

Well an ok Action Comedy film with a decent cast. Hugh Grant pretty much playing a billionaire version of his character from Guy Ritchie's @The Gentlemen (2020) complete with same voice. There are some good action scenes and some funny one liners. Despite the budget though it doesn't have a blockbuster feel to it and doesn't reach the heights of many similar films in this genre.

This is the second book in this series by this author. The characters are amazing, the perfect swoon worthy billionaire mixed with a strong female. This book can be read as a stand alone read or as part of the series. This is an amazing story that will keep you hooked till the last page. I can't wait to read more in this series and by this author in the future.
Highly recommended

David McK (3547 KP) rated Elementary - Season 7 in TV
Jun 2, 2024 (Updated Jun 2, 2024)
I thought Season 6 had the perfect send-off, with Holmes and Watson back where they belong in 221b Baker Street.
This, curtailed (I think they knew beforehand) season has the duo moving back to the States following the shooting of a former colleague, with the through line in this 13(?)-episode run being the threat posed by the tech billionaire Odin Reichenbach.
yes, I said Reichenbach.
It's no coincidence one of the final episodes is called 'Reichenbach Falls'

Absolutely brilliant from start to finish.
JUST ONE NIGHT is a standalone story in the Billionaire & Escort trope. Madden is the billionaire and Asher is the escort. Both of them are confident men, hiding their inner bruised selves from the world. However, both of them also have strong females in their lives. For Mads, it is his older sister; for Asher, his best friend. Both women know exactly what has gone on in the lives of their men and aren't prepared to stand by any longer.
I LOVED THIS STORY! And it's in a genre that usually doesn't do much for me - probably because I'm about as far away from being a billionaire as you can get! There are no unnecessary miscommunications or misunderstandings. Things happen, explanations and reasons given, BOOM, let's sort it out. I can't tell you how refreshing that was. Instead of all that angst, you get two adult men who know what they want, uniting in their feelings for each other, against those who seek to cause damage.
The pacing is smooth, the descriptions vivid, and the characters both lifelike and loveable. The steam is off the charts and I loved how their relationship grew. There is an epilogue that not only gives you everything you want but also left me wanting more from this pair. I did NOT want this book to finish!
Absolutely brilliant from start to finish. Highly recommended by me.
