Good cast chemistry (2 more)
Generally funny throughout
Pretty good Sfx
We've got fun and games
A good, funny action film where the cast chemistry makes the film enjoyable. In the first film the jungle elements start to break through to the real world. This time a group of kids in detention get sucked in to a video game version of Jumanj. It's not the only Breakfast club undertone to the film either.
The Sfx and action scenes are pretty good. It is very funny though with group dynamics, body swap, role reversal going on. Largely thanks to Jack Black and Kevin Hart. Overall a fun light hearted action comedy with a big budget production that's very entertaining.

Hmmmm ... I'm unsure what to feel about this one.

The second in Derek Landy's 'Skulduggery Pleasant' series (after Skulduggery Pleasant), this - for large part - feels juvenile, very much aimed towards a younger audience.

And then we get short, sudden shocks of pure body horror, enough to give (I imagine) the more sensitive young reader nightmares.

So, if it was a movie, large parts PG, maybe, with certain other sections more like an 18.

Anyway, knowing that (and with that in mind), it's enjoyable enough, continuing on the story of Skulduggery Pleasant and Valkyrie Cain that was started in the previous novel, with plenty of plot threads left hanging open for the sequels.

Today is World Ovarian Cancer Day, and I want to take a moment to stand with every woman who's been through this, every carer who's sat in a hospital waiting room, and every person carrying grief that doesn't have easy words.

Ovarian cancer can be quiet in its early stages, which is exactly why awareness matters so much. It is so often caught late, because its symptoms — bloating, pelvic pain, fatigue — are easy to dismiss or explain away.

This year's theme is No Woman Left Behind, and that feels important. Every woman deserves to be heard when something feels wrong. And if something feels wrong in your own body, please don't let anyone dismiss it. 🩵
