Cracking movie
I'm not usually one for any kind of musicals, but this one was recommended by a work mate. Loved every joyous moment, Hugh Jackmans voice is surprisingly good and the songs are definitely catchy and some rather annoyingly so lol.
Its a definite feel good, rise up movie. Thoroughly recommend it *****

Strong female lead
I wasn't expecting to like this film as I'm not really into action movies, but I actually enjoyed it. The CGI was on point and the action scenes were really good.
The storyline was predictable but very good nonetheless, i did feel it ended with many questions unanswered though so i do hope there's a sequel to wrap everything up.

This book speaks straight from your souls. One of the books where you feel like having a chat with a good friend and agree about how life works. Absolute brilliant in a funny way which makes you think about your own behaviour as well

Take a stupid and obnoxious MC, add in a bunch of unlikeable characters, mix with a plot that could have been good and what do you get? A dumb 186 page book that goes nowhere interesting. I honestly feel stupider having read this. O_o

A decent idea but not done to it's full potential. A cross between Heathers with Hostel, without being as gory. Good message though, you start off cheering for one side but then feel sorry for those held captive. Not bad for a low budget horror.

John Candy was such a natural funny man and we still miss his particular comedy approach and this movie is no exception, a feel good movie movie for the whole family that never gets old, the golf club scene especially.. a favourite of mine.

Absolutely adored this book. Such a feel good romance with quirky humour to boot. Made me smile and really root for the cowboy. Made me cross my fingers that charlie would see sense. It was a book I really got into and couldn't put down.

A bit above the normal standard for Statham's last few action films, which are all a bit the same. This has a good high tempo of action and filmed in away you feel right in the midst of the action. Overall better than expected.

A huge epic of a film. Does the story justice and Skull island has never looked so good. The SFX are inspiring, Kong never looked so real. It has a great adventure feel to it, just a pity the first 40mins is a bit slow.

I love the Orphans series. It's amazing how a story can be so good and so involved even though it's not splattered with text. It has just enough for a great story, while it doesn't ever feel overwhelming. Volume four has some insane moments.
