Keeps you guessing
There were a lot of possibilities with this one and they didn't feel like false leads. It was really hard to figure out how it was going to end. Told from 3 points of view in present time and a month earlier.
Very good! I highly recommend this one when it comes out on June 4th!

A decent entry to the Pixar garage of films. This did feel aimed a lot more at a younger audience, where their other films have something for all ages. A good voice cast and shiny motors with some impressive animation again. I loved the "Cars" versions of Toy Story, Monsters Inc at the end when the credits roll!

What a disappointment
I was so looking forward to watching this, although reading poor reviews I still had high hopes. I was very disappointed, it was a slow burner, but a slow burner without much substance. I didn't feel connected to the characters or really care about what happened. I was so disappointed because the book was really good.

Emotional, intriguing and twisty
Well written, smooth story lines, didnt seem unrealistic or cheesy, could not put down. Literally read it in 1 day while hosting a yard sale. The plot is good and keeps you on edge of seat but makes you really feel for the characters. Now I really want to watch the show.

A very average action/thriller, more of a teenage Bourne identity. It obviously had plenty of money to be spent on it, but from the very experienced cast none of the performances were that good. It does feel like a collection of ideas from other films, but sadly doesn't do them as well. Ok if nothing else is on.

Oh, look… 4 years later and a different Robin Williams. What is the difference? Well, Matt Damon for one thing. This is perhaps the most serious of the feel good films, riding that boundary boldly and without apology. I was obsessed with this film when it hit its Oscar vibe. I wanted it to win everything, such was its impact on me, and still is. No moment in cinema is more likely to break me than “It’s not your fault“. I am not sure I have ever seen it outside of the cinema without taking a pause there… Minnie Driver made two good films, this and Grosse Point Blank. And in this she is perfectly cast. The feel good factor comes from enduring the pain and seeing it to its conclusion, as Damon rides into the gloom to chase his girl. Perhaps the most satisfying end credits of all time! Just watch him drive towards happiness…

Not just for kids!
I'm not interested in the first 2 films, but having kids I've been subjected to watch them. So when they realised the 3rd film was out, obviously we had to go and watch it instantly. But OMG how good?! From start to finish it had such an easy story line to follow. Its got so many life lessons in, such as losing a parent, people having limbs missing, forming friendships and relationships. It's got such a lovely ending. I cried. But then I love a good ending so?♀️ but honestly if you like I feel good cartoon it's worth the wTch
