Hysterical
This series is brilliant. The mysteries generally are not very deep. But the characters will keep you howling. Stephanie is a bounty hunter, for whom nothing every goes right. She is surrounded by a hilarious cast of characters. My favorite is her pistol packing grandma who goes to funeral as the highlight if her social scene. Fast paced and funny, this is a great series.

Fantastic
I'd go so far as saying this is one of the best Star Wars films. It has a fantastic cast, great script and a thrilling and tense storyline. Gareth Edwards has turned a risky one off prequel into a brilliant and entertaining film. Felicity Jones is a great lead, and I think K-2S0 might be my all time favourite robot, the humour he injects into this film is spot on.

Cast
Brilliant
This is one of my all time favourite films, which is also based on a story by my favourite author. Frank Darabont does a great job directing such a fantastic cast, and the story itself is so interesting albeit a little sad towards the end. Character development is one of Stephen King's strengths, and it really shows in this adaptation. This is one of those films that never gets old.

Totally agree, literally one of my favourite movies, and true to the original Stephen King book. I have it on DVD ?

Brilliant Political Thrillar
This book should be one of the greats, it is very addictive once you get into it. I read the trilogy in about a week. Lisbeth Salander is a character that you fall in love with and empathise a great deal with. Her trials through out the book are heart breaking and you feel free once she has over come them. Even when she get revenge, although it is pretty gruesome.

Finally, a full on action film that offers a completely fresh outlook on how things should be done!

Halle Berry is as brilliant as always and I’m glad to see that she wasn’t offered just any storyline - it’s basically a chase movie but oh so much more - it’s completely nerve wracking and will keep you on the edge of your seat right through to the credits.

Really clever and totally refreshing - a highly recommended watch.

this is the first book in the series and what a start. I loved every page and couldn't put it down. this book is a hot steamy read but does have a cliff hanger ending. the author has a fantastic way with words which make you feel your actually in Paris. brilliant characters and fab story line. will definitely be getting the next one.

Heartbreaking
Really, really excellent show, so emotional and such a rollercoaster. The twists were brilliant, and the decent through near-madness, and the depths of despair were heartbreaking.

I cant think of one element of the show which was disappointing, the revelations were extremely well presented and the reveals were excellent.

There was no detail which was overlooked, which I can remember. Even the reveals were visible but hidden, if that makes sense!

Good but not brilliant
While its still doctor who, as a fan myself i think the fact it is ouerly set in america is quite a let down and the fact that overall paul mcgann was techipnically the longest running doctor but has barely had 3 hours pf actual screen time is the biggest let down, the stpey isnt all that amazing but for doctor who fans it is a mist see.Will

Not usually a fan of war films but...
This was amazing, I couldn't take my eyes off the screen for the entire film. It was such a good build up with so much suspense and action involved. The cast were brilliant, one of the only reasons I agreed to watch it in the first place! But I couldn't fault this film at all. I really enjoyed it and so worth a watch.
