Brilliant. This film never ages and retains a relevance today with austerity and the "attack" on the most vulnerable within society. (0 more)

Brilliant
Brilliant read took a couple of chapters to get going, and does go back and forth (past and present). It is not as happy as the films. There are twists along the way, you won't see beauty and the beast in the same way again a must for disney fans.

This is my second book by Anne Stuart and I really like their darkness. They're romance but with guys who appear to be the bad guys but who in the end, you end up liking/falling for. It's brilliant. She's brilliant.

I can't wait to read more--if not all--of Anne's other books :)

A little farfetched of a story to follow.. A meteor crashing to earth and it gets split in half... (0 more)
Brilliant! Utterly brilliant!
So I admire the writers and directors for this movie almost as much as the actors and actresses. Despite absolutely remarkable performances the storyline for me was a little bit of a long shot. The whole plotline of splitting a meteor in half with a bomb and it perfectly going either side of the earth. I mean come on!

That being said, the performances from actors like Bruce Willis, ving rhames and Ben Affleck all brought this film to life.

As for the soundtrack, it went down in history almost straight away as one of the greatest power ballads to date.
