Brilliant SFX
Live action GTA
A real blast of a film with so much going on. I saw a trailer a long way back and thought it could be fun, but didn't expect such a blockbuster film.
It's a real mix of Ready Player One meets the The Truman Show. A non playable Character in a game suddenly becomes alive and decides to make his own decisions after encountering a player in the game.
The film is funny and will be especially fun for those who do play video games. Feeling like a real life version of a GTA game. The SFX to recreate so much crazy video game action in real life is great.
Definitely an enjoyable film worth seeing at the cinema and one I can imagine watching multiple times in future.

Oh wow!

I thought the first in the series was good but this is brilliant!

It takes one second and three little words to throw Lila Dayne into the abyss that she's been circling for two years.....

Winter Austin has created something that is gripping, emotional and immersive. Hush, My Darling has everything it should have and more to hook you and keep you guessing throughout.
    I had my suspicions........and second guessed myself......I started to think I was wrong.......that three other characters, potentially, were the one hunting Lila, that's how well Winter played me with her twisting tapestry of a story. I'm sad to say I doubted someone I really shouldn't have thanks to a few paragraphs......little details that tried to trick me.

I can't wait for the next installment of this cracking series, I need more!!

A Marmite Film, But We loved it!
My two daughters and I watched this on Saturday night with our expectations set on low as we'd all heard things about it that said it wouldn't be very good. Maybe that was the secret to our enjoyment, but we loved it!

It is fun and frantic, with a modern twist to the story that I adored. I thought the comedy aspects were brilliant, and the actors knocked it out of the park.

If you're looking for the movie equivalent of War and Peace then you will be disappointed. However, if you are after a fun, family movie that will make you smile and laugh then I can absolutely recommend it.

This is a Marmite Film. You will either love it or hate it. As for us, we loved it!

The rest were good to ok the other book that stood out was Faded Glory by David Essex it was from a box subscription and I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it!

My DNF were high this month I just couldn’t get on with them I’ve never not finished that many in a month!

I’m half way through The Empire of the Vampires which is absolutely brilliant but that will be on Mays list!
