Dull and uneventful
Well this was billed as a GoT stop gap. It might have the grand production but overall I just couldn't keep interested. Just watched the last episode today having started a couple of months ago or more. First episode aside there is little action and far too much talk of "the Gods" spirit worlds etc. When it did finally end it wasn't really a good conclusion. I won't be bothering if they do another series.

Excellent
This movie was exactly what you'd expect from a pairing of Reynolds and Jackson. Great acting, great action and hilarious comedy. The flashback scenes had me rolling! These two were great together and everyone was great in their parts, as well. It even has a couple good twists in it ans some serious beauties in Elodie Yung and Salma Hayek!(both great actresses) I definitely recommend this one to any action/comedy fans. Worth a watch!

Although I previously started the book twice and didn't manage to get into it, it was 100% worth getting through the first couple of chapters as I absolutely loved it!
The story is full of excitement, brilliant ideas and great in depth description. With there being so many characters in the story, it started off a little confusing but once into the Game of Thrones zone, I enjoyed every second of reading it!

When Mark hears a gunshot at a neighbor's house, he investigates to find two dead bodies who have been dead for more than a couple of minutes. He's certain the killer is the person with the perfect alibi. Can he prove it? Lots of twists and turns with characters who live up to their TV show persona. Another great read.

Wow, wow, wow! A friend of mine recommended this book to me, and I'm so glad I read it. It started out a bit slow for the first couple of chaters but then I found that I couldn't put it down!!
The book kept me guessing as there were a lot of plot twists. I also loved all the characters =)
And it's a zombie book, so what else could you want!?!
Definitely give this one a read!!

The characters in thisbook were likable and developed. The settings were amazing. The plot took some twists and turns. The overall flow of the book was very good. The progression of the two main characters relationship and how it connects to their family history was unique. There were a couple of times I wanted to yell at Avery for being stupid. I definately recommend this book. It would be a beach or sitting by the fireplace read.

Tries hard but doesnt deliver
I was a huge Sabrina fan, HUGE! I was so excited for this remake but it just doesnt do it for me. I didnt expect it to be so dark or for her aunts to be soooooo irritating! And whats with the random zombie cousin guy? I managed a couple if episodes and had to give up. Gutted ?

Finally, a return to the way vampires should be- monsters that go bump in the night rather than brooding romantic interests. If you like your vampires scary rather than sexy, this show is for you.
I adored the book series this show is based on, and it took me a couple of episodes to accept the changes that had been made. I hope this gets a second series and they delve deeper into the issues raised in the novels.

Great
This movie surprised me. The main actress played her part excellently. You could really feel her intense emotional turmoil throughout thr movie. The rest of the acting was decent enough but could've been better. The story line, while predictable at times, played out interestingly enough to keep you watching. The effects were done well. There were a couple disturbing scenes so it's not really for kids. Makes for a good date night thriller though. Worth a watch!
