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.

I loved the characters most characters, the storyline was ok. (0 more)
I didn't like the ending or the witch character I thought it ruined the story would have been better If they was facing another criminal rather than a witch (0 more)
The main characters was brilliant and had potential to be a great film but when they face a witch it ruined the film, I thought it would have been better if they raced a new criminal.

A worthy adaptation of an excellent comic
A really enjoyable, filthy, dark and funny series. Some excellent portrayals of really twisted characters and a great real world take on what would happen if superheroes were real. A number of liberties were taken (Hughie not being Scottish for one, Karl Urban's accent for another) but all in all a really brilliant TV show that ended too soon, but clearly has so much more to come.

I would like to thank NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

This book was incredible. The writing is at the same time lyrical and cinematic and absolutely breath-taking.

I was thouroughly invested in Janneke's love/hate relationship with Soren and how she dealt with the effects of her horrendous torture at the hands of a sadist.

Brilliant book.

Too much hype for not alot of action
No match on original
Contains spoilers, click to show
To say This film was hyped up is understatement. I was sos excited when it was released but I felt it was so dragged out and then about 20 mins of overall action. This is the problem as they have decided to split it up a brilliant original film to make more profit.

Brilliant
After reading the previous books in this series I started to read this with great anticipation and I was proofed right as I got completely lost in this book from page 1, I was unable to put it down.

The only downside is that there will be no Z is for, after she passed away last year her family decided Y would be the last in the series

I've used a few email apps in my time but none of them have been as easy to use as Gmail. It works just as smoothly on the app as it does online. I love the labels for organising my emails.
The search is brilliant and I can always find what I'm looking for.

Overall the app feels intuitive and is very easy to use.

Undeniable variety in the tracks provided. (0 more)
A brilliant album by the Korean supergroup, BTS. There's an added personal touch in the form of a solo song from each of the 7 members, from the heart wrenching ballad 'Awake' to the upbeat 'Mama'. The album's title track 'Blood, Sweat and Tears' is synthy dance pop with a music video worth watching. All in all, a lot is offered in this album to enjoy.
