Dean (6927 KP) rated Charlie's Farm (2014) in Movies
Sep 23, 2017
Run of the mill Slasher
I had high hopes after hearing good reviews for this. Unfortunately it's pretty standard low budget slasher stuff. For a short film it's slow to get going and then just goes through the motions to an abrupt ending. The man playing Charlie is a beast to make Kane Hodder look small. The gore effects are pretty good. Feels very similar to the Hatchet films.
Sarah (7800 KP) rated Black Mirror - Season 1 in TV
Aug 28, 2017
This first season is nearly flawless. Charlie Brooker really knows how to do dark and alternative futures. The last episode is my favourite out of the 3, it's a piece of technology I'd be intrigued to have myself. All 3 episodes are strong though, all with fantastic casts and storylines. They're all interesting takes on social media, technology and pop culture and sadly you could almost imagine these happening now.
Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2579 KP) rated Prime Time (Charlotte McNally, #1) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
TV investigative reporter Charlotte "Charlie" McNally is trying to find a great story for November sweeps. And it might have just landed in her lap with a tip from the widow of an apparent suicide. The story started rather slowly, but once it got going, I couldn't put it down.

AT (1676 KP) rated Marriage Story (2019) in Movies
Dec 21, 2019
I enjoyed Marriage Story, for as much as one can enjoy that type of situation. It was frustrating and heartbreaking, and had some funny spots thrown in. It was a raw story of a family going through a divorce. (Granted, it was a family that had access to money for bulldog legal teams, so it was both, "easy," and ugly.) Adam Driver was great in his role as Charlie.
