Charlie Day
Del Toro's worst
Guillermo Del Toro is a fantastic director, but he really does himself a disservice with this film. It's an interesting story idea and the effects are pretty decent, it's just a shame the acting and script are awful. Charlie Day is beyond irritating in every scene he's in, and even Idris Elba doesn't come off well.

A lovely little short story that follows Timothy Flowers who turns 21 on the day this is set on. Timothy is minding his own business when a man, Charlie, starts to talk to him and offers him a day’s paid work. Timothy is unsure but decides to help Charlie out.
What follows is a story about their day and makes you want to read more when it’s finished. It was heartwarming and although Timothy is different from most normal 21 year olds, Charlie doesn’t treat him that way at all.
I would definitely recommend it! I just wish it was a little longer!

Charlie is surprised when James Delacorte asks for his help cataloging his private library since the two hardly know each other. But James fears that someone is stealing his rare books. Returning from his lunch break his first day on the job, Charlie finds James dead. Who killed him? Are there really missing library books?
I let too much time pass before I got back to this series, but I was thrilled to see Charlie and his cat Diesel again. They are great main characters, and I liked how Charlie and several relationships around him grew in this book. The mystery was a bit slow to get started, but once it did, the tension was strong and the ending was great.

Charlie Goes to School is a story based on a true story. It is about a little boy that has some special needs. The book focuses on what Charlie can rather than what he can not do. This is a good book for children and parents alike. An to show that being different is okay. They may look and do things a bit differently.
This book goes through the adventures that Charlie does to go to school. It shows and tells us how he goes about his day at school. It shows the help and friends he does have at school and in town. Some of his favorite things he likes to do and classes. The pictures are done well.
I love reading about different children and learning what they can do with their abilities, whether they are physical or mental. This book can teach children and parents that having someone with special needs can teach and inspire others how they do things.
This little boy is an inspiration and a charmer, just being himself, and his family accepts him for being him. If you love him and do what is best for him, that is all that matters. Charlie seems like he been happy and is learning to do some adventures of his own. This series is called “Adventures with Charlie” Charlie Goes to School. Charlie seems to join the fun of trying new things. What fun will you do on a school bus and at school?

Tissues definitely needed
Contains spoilers, click to show
The story follows 17 year old Katie as she battles with a life threatening illness Xeroderma pigmentosum. XP means she can not be exposed to sunlight or it can be fatal.
Growing up, Katie falls in love with a boy called Charlie who would pass by her house every day and one day whilst playing a song at the train station they finally meet face to face and hit off straight away.
The story revolves around teenage love whilst battling this disease, but after staying out with Charlie until early hours in the morning and becoming exposed to the slightest bit of sunlight, Katie's health begins to deteriorate until she eventually passes away.
As a lover of romantic movies I really enjoyed this movie. Cried like a baby at the end though, so I definitely recommend being prepared with tissues at the ready.
