                    Finally Spider-man gets to be with MJ! 
The beginning setting up with Mysterio (sic) felt just a little tedious. Could definitely tell that guy was fake, just a bit too 'nice'. Kept thinking he was a lame Mr Strange with a bowl on his head.
Peter's bravery even though he doesn't want to save the world just speaks to his character. I would love more sarcasm from Peter.
The action sequences were great, special effects great, views while he is swinging around great, a rollercoaster of fun with slow bits for conversation. Remembering Tony Stark was a nice touch. A perfectly good addition for Marvel fans.

                    I love this series, I think the world that has been created is brilliant. I thoroughly enjoy the every growing stories and magical elements. I really feel immersed with this story.
The reason for the low rating is I think the could have been 200 odd pages shorter, I found the first 300 pages quite dull. I really dislike the language used as the voice of Rowan - so cliche, get me a bucket! When there were large sections of this story I did struggle to go, very glad that Manon was introduced. I'm also perhaps a little harsh as I was a Celaena an Chaol fan.
I will definitely be reading the next book after that ending and all the possibilities.

        Amazing!     
    
                    I have been waiting years to watch this and finally got round too it!!!
Brilliant story with a sad start and action packed ending!
For a mother her happy place in life is with her family, but with the cartel having everyone in their pockets life and justice isn't always easy. A bad choice made on the dads behalf signing the death on his family, how ever the brilliant Jennifer garner survived and has trouble bringing her familys murder to a logical fair ending. In this action packed film you see raw emotions and how far a mother with go to get the ending she waited 5 years to fight for. With no one helping her it's down to her to go back and clean out all the trash!
This is a must see!!!

        Brilliant Action/Comedy     
    
                    A favourite of mine starring an impressive cast. This is a big budget Action, comedy that feels like 2 films in one. It has some great big budget scenes, effects and stunts without taking its self seriously. Almost a tongue in cheek Bond role for Arnie. This has something for everyone.

        Best book I read 2017!    
    
                    This is my favorite book of 2017 and one of my overall favorite books of all time! Gerald Durrell quickly became one of my favorite authors with his extremely witty exchanges of his family and such a unique perspective of his time in Corfu. Just a brilliant book!
