I should mention that whilst I gave Wonder Woman a perfect score...it is not a perfect film. It's just something that takes you through so many emotions and has a strong message behind it all, not just about women being strong and independent etc. It's all about fighting for what you believe in, facing fears head on and overcoming them if especially if you are fighting for something that you are passionate about, or something you truly believe in.

This film has its fault but personally they were overlooked because the rest of the film made up for it in my opinion. I don't expect others to score it as generously as I have.

An Important Read
I am not sure how I feel about the ending. Not because it's ambiguous in what happened to our narrator, but the impersonal feel of the weird lecture hall explanation of everything in the end. Discussing it without feeling. I generally dislike this view of history and think it's important to have emotions connected to the actions of the past. I do understand that the shockingly clinical look for the last ten or so pages is a stark contrast to the emotional mix we felt while listening to Offred tell the story. Also, if they had to go clinical in the end, I would have liked a few more questions answered.

this is a fantastic book and I think I've just gone through a lot of different emotions reading this book. the ending made me cry which rarely happens. like the first book the subjects are hard hitting but done in a sensitive way. I was hooked from page one and couldn't put the book down. this book was just as good as the first and I couldn't wait to start the third. the author writes the book from both points of view which works beautifully. all the characters and the story line are well written, each contains the right amount of details to make this a fantastic book

Perfect balance of humour, action and emotion (0 more)
Several potential plot holes (1 more)
One bad error
End of the era
So to date I have seen this six times, pretty much done the cinema checklist, bring seen it in 2D, 3D,4DX and IMAX. It still never fails to get the emotions running at one scene for me.

It's it perfect? No, there are potential plot holes, and one very noticeable continuity error, however given for a film running 3 hours, you don't notice it pass at all.

I maybe bits as I have been a comic book geek for too many years, and even a bad Marvel movie is still pretty good, this though, a whole new level

This wasn't a bad book.. not really my thing and some spots seemed a bit odd for me but overall I enjoyed the mystery and murder to it.. I enjoyed seeing how the politics played into the mystery of this story. I am not a bit political person so that might have been part of my not being as into it as I normally would be.. however the murder mystery part of it kept me interested and invested. the writing did have some amazing feelings and emotions.. I felt with duncan on his daughters death... I felt his confusion and fear and pain. I am glad i got to review this one

This story was very well done. The characters made me like them.. I laughed several times while reading this and it kept me interested enough that I had to keep reading and miss sleep so that I could finish it. I loved that it wasn't an easy love. It had a lot of complex emotions involved in this. The sadness from Brett devastated me.. and then when he started feeling and had no idea what to do with it. JT was just adorable and amazing. He understood.. he accepted. and he made Brett become who he needed to be. They had a rough go but got it together. I really enjoyed this

The story of young Veda Sultanfuss (Chlumsky) who is coming of age during the summer goes through a ton of mixed feelings and emotions with her friend Thomas (Caulkin) in this coming of age story. Harry Sultenfuss (Aykryod) owns and runs a funeral parlor and is still morning his wife finds a new love interest in Shelly (Curtis) and Shelly has try try to win over Veda and try to act like her mom. This a true family story and one to not watch alone.



This movie has one of the saddest endings of all time and I can't watch it with out balling my eyes each and every time.

I really enjoyed this book. It about life and it cycle as though Flowers. There are alots of lesson though out the book though followers. It teaches us that we must move on and keep going. Hulda had lost most of her family and she wondered why she did. Her children died before see did. That must be tough to do.

This books teaches you lesson though the way Hulda did it though her garden. It book that really hit home with your emotions. I suggest that you have a few tissues on hand or you may be wipe your eyes while reading. It was heartfelt in some parts in this book. To me it a must read.
