Funny and Heartwarming
This movie follows the story of a couple who wants to adopt a child. They end up welcoming 3 children into their home one of which is a teenager.
This movie did a great job of showing what it is like to adopt a child, while still being light hearted and funny. It does have some serious moments that help you get invested in the family. Overall it is a great comedy that might encourage people to consider adoption.

Fuzzy completeness
I couldn’t be more gutted that this series is over. Has anyone else finished wanting more, more, more? I loved this third instalment for the curve balls of life and how Lara Jean and Peter dealt or didn’t deal with them. The dynamic between these two isn’t utopian, it’s real and how I love them for that. I think they will be a favourite couple forever for me. There really isn’t much more to say than that.

Another bit of history that everyone should know about, this film does live up to its name and it is about the women behind the space war at NASA and how they helped immensely with the work but went unrecognised until recently because they were women and coloured. Worth watching and you might learn a lot, quite funny in places although it is not a comedy but a serious film. Have seen a couple of times and would quite happily watch again.

Creepy
This little gem surprised me. The description doesn't do it justice. The acting was great and the cinematography was really well done. This woman and her daughters move into and old house left by a relative. Soon they are attacked by some strange, very creepy men and end up in a fight for their lives. There's a couple twists/turns that make the story more interesting. Try to keep up. Plenty of "creep factor'. This one is definitely worth a watch!

Fascinating
A great all round series as a couple of FBI agents interview violent offenders around the US to try and understand their psyche.
If you like crime dramas, or programmes that look at the psychology of serial killers you'll enjoy this. The acting is very good and it feels well made all round. Some of the later episodes seem to go a little off track from the start. But overall it's a very good series on an interesting subject.

Very good film, I have watched it a couple of times. I think it is supposed to be slightly in the future but it could actually be present day because it is based about living your life on social media and posting everything and I mean everything and the company that runs the software like Facebook. It is alarming real life as it shows how quick someone can be found via social media and it is a scary thought. Certainly thought provoking.

Is it good or very good
Contains spoilers, click to show
It does make you watch without doing something else such as knitting, I put the needles down and concentrated on the film. It does keep your attention because there are lots of twists, just as you think the plot is nearly over, off it goes on another tangent. Would I watch it again, probably not, only because I now the ending and all the twists and turns. Good way to spend a couple of hours.

Not funny (1 more)
Very loose idea for a plot
Very poor 80's style teen comedy
This definitely tries to capture the vibe of films like Ferris Bueller's day off and Risky Business to name a couple. It fails badly though. Despite quite an ensemble cast most only have a few scenes or cameo roles. It's just not that funny and goes from one odd scene to the next. There are better more recent teen comedies than this around.
AT (1676 KP) rated Yona of the Dawn, Vol. 10 in Books
Feb 20, 2020
The story is finally taking baby steps in a forward direction again. It had seemed like it was at a standstill for the last couple of volumes. Volume 10 focuses on Tae-Jun, his awe of Yona, and his need to please her even though his king would not approve. This character is probably the dumbest, most clueless character in the series. He is, at least in the series, so far. So that brought some necessary lightness and humor to the story.
