Dean (6926 KP) rated Assassination Nation (2018) in Movies

Sep 7, 2019

A bit of an odd film. It's not as cool, edgy or shocking as it thinks it is. A small town called Salem goes all Purge crazy after hackers release everyone's phone and intertnet data. The first half is pretty slow but once the town is in meltdown it becomes more interesting. A bit of social commentary on how people behave and act online in comparison to real life underlies the film. Didn't quite reach the high levels in getting it across to make it particularly memorable. You might like it if you liked the Purge but it's not as good as the first Purge film.

Book Rating

Netgalley and the publisher provided me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review
If you're looking for the grim dark n edgy that DC does to varying degrees of wellness this book is not for you.

If you want a silly romp that revels in outrageous fun and Easter eggs? This is your book!

Hiram Lodge wants to drain a swamp and build over it. Pamela finds out about this and gets Harley to join her in kidnapping Betty and Veronica.

Which would have worked out beautifully if not for Zatanna and Sabrina.

Oops!

I don't think I can properly express the joy this book brought me. It's absolutely delightful!

Merissa (12069 KP) rated Gray Moon Rising (Seasons of the Moon #4) in Books

Gray Moon Rising (Seasons of the Moon #4) by S.M. Reine

LOVED THIS SERIES!!!! Yes, they are aimed at Young Adult and No, I'm not. That did not stop my enjoyment of them one iota. This book has everything that you could wish for in the final book in a series and enough left to keep you wanting more. Luckily for me, there is more, which I'm just about to go and get!

SM Reine has kept the quality and entertainment going throughout the four books and the character development has been a wonder to read. The plot is fast-paced and edgy.

Definitely recommended to one and all, not just YAs, especially as you can now get this as a box set too.

Mercifully brief compared to the other two (1 more)

A good advert for celibacy

Once More Unto the Sex Dungeon

(Hey, I know no shame, I will admit to watching this.) Yet more underwhelming shenanigans from the crayon of E.L. James, as thinly-characterised everygirl Anastasia and mysteriously alluring ripped billionaire Christian Grey embark upon married life together.

More of the same mixture of blandly aspirational low-octane soap opera and profoundly unerotic softcore porno; difficult to say which is more boring. Scores somewhat over the second one by actually having a sort of thriller subplot, which means there are moments which approach being dramatic. Supposedly edgy and transgressive saga concludes with the most conventional image of domestic happiness imaginable; says it all really. One quite funny line: too involved to repeat here, alas.
