Dork_knight74 (881 KP) rated Emelie (2016) in Movies
Aug 8, 2018
This drama/ thriller on Netflix(not exclusive) want too bad. The cinematography and acting were just ok, but the story was creepy enough to keep your interest. It's a "crazy babysitter" movie. I don't give the ending away but it definitely would make you double think who you leave your kids with in a night out. The kids were cute sings did pretty well for their ages. The main character(babysitter) definitely played the "creepy" part well, too. This one isn't the greatest film you'll see but it's worth a watch.
AT (1676 KP) rated Laon Book 1 in Books
Sep 16, 2018 (Updated Sep 16, 2018)
When I initially flipped through Laon at the library, I thought it would be a much different story. I'm still glad that I read it, but the majority of book 1 was more on the "cute" side than I expected. It did change courses toward the end of book 1, when the action started happening. So, I am glad that I gave it a try. It's still worth a read since it goes fairly quickly. I look forward to reading book 2, since the story has gotten a bit darker and more complex!
AT (1676 KP) rated Assaasination Classroom Vol. 2 in Books
Sep 17, 2018 (Updated Sep 17, 2018)
Volume 2 of Assassination Classroom continues the oddball storyline of a misfit class of students that are trying to assassinate their teacher. The book covers are colorful and cute, but the series is not for young readers. In book 2, we are introduced to a new teacher character, who happens to be a professional assassin. This lady needs to try her hand at the assassination as well as get used to teaching kids in a classroom setting. The class also gets to head out on a class trip to Koyoto. More fun to come...
Caffeinated Fae (464 KP) rated The Best Damn Answers to Life's Hardest Questions: A Flowchart Book in Books
Oct 3, 2018
A little too judgy for me.
I really wanted to like this book. It look quirky, cute, and absolutely adorable. Unfortunately, this did not meet my expectations. I felt that this book was just too judgy for me. I get what Tess Koman was trying to do, but I was bored with it by the fifth page. The illustrations were okay, and at times I did crack a slight smile. All in all, I was not impressed.

Melody Womack (32 KP) rated Dr Seuss' The Lorax (2012) in Movies

One of my all time favorites!
Contains spoilers, click to show
I have always loved the original Lorax book and movie (which was essentially just an animated reading of the book, ) so I was really excited when this version was released. I like Ted's story even though he was just a nameless boy in the books. The silliness of the story made it Catchy for children, which I feel helped get the message across. The animation was fun and the songs were super catchy. I've watched this movie at least 50 times.
The Marinated Meeple (1853 KP) rated Dice Town in Tabletop Games

Good 5 player game (2 more)
Roll, select, roll what’s left, select mechanic is nice
Bad luck has choices
Can get screwed early and often. Just like in life (1 more)
Almost nothing stays yours.
Good light dice game. Best with more.
This was a cute game. Feels like an auction game as players are simultaneously selecting a dice and going after a certain outcome. But if more than one person is going for it. It will probably cost more. Is it worth it? I enjoyed my play. I’d play again but I’m not sprinting to play again.

Two Dimensional Characters (1 more)
Mediocre Script
Wasn't Bad, Wasn't Good
The story itself was very good, a very cute tale about a woman getting her son back from kidnappers, all taking placein the forest with wolves on the prowl. Although the story was decent the execution was terrible.
With a mediocre script and characters that brought nothing more than face value acting ruined this film.
I'll admit the scenes were executed with beautifully made scenery and anglings but thua was lost to the two dimensional execution of the actual storyline.

Plumbobmummy (3910 KP) rated Dumbo (2019) in Movies
Jan 2, 2020
I was not a big fan of the original as a child much preferring other Disney classics but I did enjoy this. I disagree with others, I think Dumbo is a film that was In need of an update. I though visually it was fantastic and the elephants were amazing. Dumbo was very cute. I liked the characters but found the plot a little dull at times and drawn out. This is much much longer than the original. My children found it hard to sit through it all.
