Not my favourite
It's been a while since I saw this film, but one of the most important things I came away with after watching this film was how forgettable it was. It was no way in the league of other renowned Pixar films such as Monsters Inc or Toy Story, and it was too far fetched and a little silly in comparison to the other films.
While I enjoy mythology, and it's a great way for young people to explore other cultures, I don't think it's for adults as such.

Good idea, bad execution
I remember watching this when it first came out at the cinema and thinking it was actually not too bad, and very gruesome and horrific. Watching it again recently, it doesn't actually come across that well. It's a very good idea, but I think the whole plot is spoilt by the boys holiday theme which is overdone. And some of the acting is terrible, which really loses the sense of terror and suspense. The gore too is underwhelming, after having seen the Saw films etc, Hostel comes across as far too tame.

Enjoyable Read
I really enjoyed this. It was different, exciting and freaky. The characters were great and it had enough violence to keep me entertained :-) Great book. Personally I would have picked Stalker as the love interest because he's so similar to Deuce and they just 'fit' for me. If I had any faults I would say that it isn't suitable for young adults, as it is very violent and hints on themes that aren't really suitable for that age group. I've just finished the second one and loved it! Bring on the Horde :) So far a great trilogy.

Phenomenal
This is not my first book by Kevin Hearne, but it isby far my favorite. The world-building is comprehensive and flawless, the characters are relatable and fully actualized. The best part is that he is teaching the art of good story-telling while he tells one hell of a good story. The narrator for the audible book made it even better! I was so engrossed that I literally screamed in frustration when it was over and I realized I was going to have to wait for the next book to know what happens to Abhi and the others.

This is a very good enjoyable , but simple film, even for a action film the plot couldn't be more straight forward. Yes this is far more violent, bloody and gory than the previous three. Done very realistically as well similar to the scenes on the beach in saving private ryan. A brutal bloody film and entertaining as a modern day action film. Despite his years Stallone's character is believable in this and he doesn't over do any stunts, action unlike some of the other Rambo films. Well worth seeing if you have seen the others or not.

Unexpectedly good
Ok I wasn't sure I was going to like it. The beginning didn't endear me to the characters, and seemed a bit too far fetched even for a fantasy novel. However I kept reading and found myself not wanting to put it down. The author writes in a rich descriptive poetic style, very beautiful at times and when it's not, it's mildly funny and a little crude.
It certainly does not lack depth in any of the characters, which was what concerned me at the beginning. The plot is skilfully woven together and left me wanting more.

This is the fifth book in this series by this author. This book will have you laughing, crying and wanting more with every page you read. I loved everything about this book, this is my favourite so far in this series. This book has romance, suspense and a touching story line. I really loved the characters, they were really well written. This is the perfect single parent romance story. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.

I as saying it is alright - I have only just started playing it though, The main character is a small mouse which is quite cute but and here is the big but, you have to collect stars to carry out quests in order to carry on with the story just like many others, in this case the maximum level of stars you can obtain per level is 3 but so far the minimum number of stars neeed to fulfill a task is 7, so work that out. Will see how it progresses before I get too bored.

Brilliant Story (2 more)
Great Acting
Proper Kick Ass
That's how you do a superhero movie!
I've always known Wonder Women as a huge icon in the DC franchise however with limited spotlight in over the last 20 years she was kinda off my radar - until I saw this! The movie is fantastic, It's got a great story (believable) and just the right amount of superhero action to appreciate what they are capable of. Gal and the team did a superb job and I can even go as far to say it is probably one if my all time favourite superhero movies. Loved it
