Tries to do too much (0 more)
Cold Pursuit avoids the tropes that have defined the Liam Neeson action genre, and as a result, the film feels like a refreshing change of pace, if only because its different.

"I love this band, mostly because I love singers with a Scottish accent. I think the lyrics are so special. 'Please, put down your guns, lower your weapons . . . I declare a change of heart.' I like that they are still a little secret. Maybe not for long . . . "

"I change this all the time. The film I feel comfortable saying because I’ve seen it so many times is The Godfather, particularly the second part. I like everything about it, especially the soundtrack. The composer is one of my heroes and the acting is great"

"Haldeman drew on his Vietnam service to tell a story about soldiers who return to Earth after every deployment to find decades then centuries have passed. As a result, culture, sexual mores and even language change, leaving the veterans adrift. By turns melancholy, brilliant and visionary."

Best Star Wars film of them all!
Let's be fair bit has possibly the most iconic line of any film ever, the villan really is properly a villan for a change, there's massive explosions, lightsaber duels, immense family problems and 2 droids with very limited IQs!

This is one of those films that I believe is better than the book (not a Gaiman fan). I liked the casting, for the most part, and the pacing. I liked it, but I've never rewatched it. Maybe my opinion will change when I view it again.

While I found this book enjoyable to read, there were a few aspects of it that irritates me throughout.
1) I couldn't understand why Hitler was unable to change himself ever so slightly to mix in with modern society. It was clear he understood the world has changed so why couldn't he make the effort to change with it?
2) Would Germany really be so accepting of a Hitler 'impersonator'? I have the feeling that no, they would not!

Other than these two points I enjoyed the book, and by this I don't mean I found Hitler and his atrocious crimes funny, this book is clearly a piss take...
