Jennifer Connelly
Creepy Dark Crystal-esque Nostalgia with an Alice in Bowie-land feel.
I'm not going to say this film is great, it's actually just ok, but like Patrick Swayze, Jennifer Connelly seems to make everything a little bit better. My adolescent self will tell you much much better. The puppet work is fantastic, and of course it is with Jim Henson at the helm. Most people don't know this but it was a commercial flop. But since then has become a cult favorite, which is where it should be.

The multiple endings
Communism is just a red-herring.
This movie holds up after multiple viewings. The cast is fantastic, and the movie was completely zany. I always watch the film with all 3 endings, and I can't pick a favorite. This film definitely borrows a lot from 'And Then There Were None' by Agatha Christie, but it's definitely not a bad thing. Madeline Kahn was my favorite in this film, because all of her lines were perfectly delivered.
This is one movie that never needs to be remade.

The GREATEST show
This was a movie that seemed to come out of absolutely nowhere, but swept the whole world - myself included. I love the beating, human heart at the core of everything this movie is, along with the fantastic, passionate cast and wonderful musical numbers.
I work in a movie theatre, and this movie was still selling out in June, having come out at the end of December the previous year. THAT many people can't be wrong - I certainly don't think they are.

Not for the faint hearted but it is incredible how much suspense can be wrapped up in these few pages. It’s drawn to really captivate you and make you care about every person in one way or another. The battles they ensue and the cleverness in the plot makes this such an amazing read that I hope it is a long standing series as it deserves it!
I wouldn’t start this series until a lot more are realised as I’m addicted and they are not released quick enough!

This book was fantastic. I loved the plot. I loved the new characters. And I loved the new relationships formed with previous characters.
Delilah and Kell, I want to end up together. I didn't even acknowledge that I wanted this until the very end when I saw how much they cared about each other.
I loved the development of Rhy as a character as well.
Surprisingly enough, this book was superior to the first.
Towards the end, I could not put this book down for the life of me.

fantastic short read
This is the first book in this set but the sixth book in this series. This is a mafia story. This is a quick, hot and steamy, easy to read book which you will read in one sitting. This book has a cliffhanger ending so be warned, you will need part two as soon as you've finished this book. Amazing well written characters. I can't wait to read part two in this set.
Highly recommended short read

A great read for any football fan
I see Jimmy Case as a bit of an unsung hero and this book lifts the lid on what was a glittering career. From non league to Liverpool, from Brighton to Southampton and then Bournemouth, its all here. With funny anecdotes and recollections this is a fantastic read from start to finish. Having the reputation as a hard man was only the tip of the iceberg. Jimmy Case was undoubtedly one of the best midfielders of his day.

fantastic second book in this series
This is the second book in this amazing trilogy. The story continues in this book from the first one. Same amazing characters with such intense chemistry between them. This book is filled with action, sex, angst and twists and turns. The story unfolds more in this book, sucking you in and keeping you reading long into the night. I can't wait to read the final part in this trilogy.

bone chilling
Contains spoilers, click to show
okay so let me start by saying i love a good scare and this mostly fit the bill as such there was good story telling and developing as well the plot moved right along my only complaint is the fact the villan stole kids souls thats scary and sadly all too relavent to people today and the movie is about 30 minutes longer then needed to be but aside from that it was fantastic
