An Adventure awaits
A tail of adventure and intrigue awaits. You follow a story of a journey that leads you far from the only place you have ever known. It is a tale of wonder and sorrow. It starts off slow but really picks up. It has a wonderful ending and shows the true meaning of friendship and loyalty. If you have never read this I would highly recommend it.

Dull and uneventful
Well this was billed as a GoT stop gap. It might have the grand production but overall I just couldn't keep interested. Just watched the last episode today having started a couple of months ago or more. First episode aside there is little action and far too much talk of "the Gods" spirit worlds etc. When it did finally end it wasn't really a good conclusion. I won't be bothering if they do another series.

I want my 2 hours back
Where do I start with this movie? If you've seen the trailer, you've seen the entire movie. The story was ridiculously underdeveloped, the characters were boring at best, it was far too predictable, and there were crucial things that needed to be explained that weren't. Don't waste your time with this garbage heap.

This was picked for my book club, I really really tried my hardest to enjoy reading it, but for all my best efforts I had to give up. I aren't a great lover of non fiction books anyway unless it is something I really enjoy learning about. But the way he has written it was far too textbookish for me and I found it too hard to keep my concentration on it.

Only the greatest batman since Adam West!! And Jack's inner Romero was better than anything since. This movie is the reason my autistic son loves batman. (0 more)
I'm batman
Keaton was phenomenal in this film. The eccentricity of Bruce Wayne came so naturally to him. And Jack Nicholson as the Joker was spot on. And let's not forget the far too brief appearance of the late, great Jack Pallance. All in all, a perfect page to screen adaptation.

Interesting Character's
Makes you want to read the series!
I was told about the Sword of Truth books from a colleague after mentioning I was searching for a new fantasy series to read. I read this one first and it got me hooked. I loved this book and the maim Character's.
I did find after the 5th book that I started to get bored. But this book is by far the best of the series.

I enjoyed reading this book immensely! It is crazy what one will do for the ones they love. Sarah J. Maas did an amazing job showing just how far one would be willing go to save the one who holds their heart. It was just an amazing read, and I can't seem to get it off my mind. 'A Court of Thorns and Roses' has forever left a mark on my heart is really all I can say.

Game-play is addictive and challenging
Free DLC so far from EA/Dice has only made game better
The whole 'Microtransactions' saga was unfounded and people who jumped on the bandwagon should actually play the game first before judging.
Lags too often during peak times (3 more)
Online Matchmaking takes too long (especially Heroes vs. Villains mode)
Not enough characters/maps (yet)

Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp
Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp
Games
I liked it, but I didn't love it.
I had had the original Animal Crossing game once upon a time, and vaguely remembered liking it, so I decided to give this one a try. Pocket Camp was fun for a while, but very swiftly settled into monotonous and just couldn't keep my attention. There's only so far cute characters and arranging your campsite can carry you before you start needing a little bit of something else going on.

It the best of the new Bond movies
By far, my favorite of the modern Bond movies. Armed with a license to kill, Secret Agent James Bond sets out on his first mission as 007, and must defeat a private banker to terrorists in a high stakes game of poker at Casino Royale, Montenegro, but things are not what they seem.
