Another good edition in the series, but still lacking a lot of action for the long running time. It does also, despite the length, only feel like half a film. There are some funny moments and it continues in the dark setting of the last few films. Hopefully the next part will be even better.

This was such a cute light hearted inspirational read. The aquicorns are so stinking cute I could scream. I also really appreciate the diversity in the cast and design of the characters. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a quick feel good story that they can gobble up in one sitting.

I like the art work in this graphic novel, it is quirky and reminiscent of Sergio Aragones and other cartoonists from the late 70s and early 80s. The colours are vibrant, and this interpretation flows well, obviously it is shorter than the text novel, but I feel that they have done a good job.

I loved the first one sooo much! This one was good also but I feel like it wasn't as get up and dance like, which I loved out of the first. Again the cast was great but sad they killed off Meryls character and they didn't explain anything. But her back story was kinda cool :)

@Vegemite Girl I finally got around to watching it. It was much worse than I could have imagined. Such a shame that they joy and magic of the first one could not be matched. So disappointing.

And still, Donna's dead. Boohoo. I loved her. Without Streep, is a movie even worth watching?

Perfectly poised to be the runaway feel-good hit of the summer, and it is almost impossible not to be charmed by it. A sublime slice of pure escapism, this film is the toe-tapping embodiment of joy that we all need right now.

Family feel good entertainment
Classic Eddie Murphy - don't forget to play "spot the Eddie Murphy" character. Really enjoyed the context and the characters were brilliant. The music added a new layer to the comedy and was very current.

The story was obvious. Id recommend as an easy watching family fun film

"My guilty pleasure TV show — 'SNL,' starring me," Trump told People, following his second hosting appearance on the show, in 2015. "They got great ratings. The best ratings in years. It was a terrific success. I enjoyed doing it. It was 50 percent more than Hillary [Clinton]'s show. That makes me feel good.""

Good morning, friends! Mornings are properly cool now, and the light has that low amber quality October does so well. It’s the kind of weather that makes even an ordinary Wednesday feel worth showing up for fully and with intention.

Have a Wonderful Wednesday. Take care and stay safe. 💙

I enjoyed reading a superhero story rather than the traditional graphic novel format, and feel it was quite well delivered.
The narration is a little too fan-boy for my liking and at times is quite irritating.
The plot is great and action rolls along at a good pace, with mostly good characters introduced, though they all feel a little clichéd.
I did like the premise where those with superpowers are in charge and the world does their bidding. I would love to read a prequel book where the superheroes fought and divided the world up into fiefdoms for all the most powerful, though at the same time having little on the "origin story" works out quite well in this case.

Decent Horror
A slow burner but enjoyable creature, myth Horror. In a remote rundown town in Oregon a strange creature appears to be attacking local residents. It's very nicely shot and the locations add to the feel of the film. Quite a grim, run down, poor town that has long seen better days. Combined with large areas of remote woodland and mountains adding to the isolated feel. The main story takes the form of an old folk tale about a spirit taking the form of an animal and needing to feed.
The creature effects are good along with the gory makeup effects are both good. If you after a slow burner, errie horror that's a bit different to the norm check this out.
