Erika (17789 KP) rated Pray For The Wicked by Panic! At The Disco in Music
Sep 22, 2019 (Updated Sep 22, 2019)
I honestly only listened to this album because one of my friends got us tickets from her friend that was in the string trio, performing with Panic!. The last time I had listened to Panic! was when Pretty Odd came out.
All of the songs on this album are solid, catchy, and, for the most part, feel good. Obviously, hearing the album live was, of course, superior to the recorded version.

The graphics and editing is very good and the characters are well thought out, put together and very well played by each actor (1 more)
The story line is full of adventure, heart ache (at certain points) and many amazing fight scenes.
A fun watch
I enjoyed the movie overall and loved the characters throughout the movie.

Nice ideas ok execution
Good to see Sean William Scott doing something other than a fratboy comedy. Taking on a Dexter style role in this film as he works as a social worker at a college. Distributing his own brand of justice.
Low budget and it shows at times. Despite the short run time the film does feel quite slow. Not a bad thriller but could have been much better.

Excellent screenplay from a great short story (1 more)
Thomas Jane is amazing
Just a good old fashioned ghost story
I try not to put too much stock in Netflix produced Horror Films. I Am The Pretty Thing... Was not so great, and prior King offering Gerald's Game could've been better.
But they got this one right. It was creepy as shit.
A true slow burn o a movie, it drags a little in the beginning, but the slow spiral downward in to true dread for Jane's character is felt by audience members.
A true story of a man's slow decent into insanity and desperation that makes only the most heartfelt viewer feels for poor ol' Wilf.
All in all, this is a good offering by Netflix. I hope they follow it up with something just as good.
Dread is as good as fear when it comes to the horror genre. And dread is what this makes you feel.

So far, so very good!
So far, we (my wife and i) are about to finish Season 3. We have been semi-binge-watching for about a month, but with the episodes only being 20 minutes, its refreshingly easy to get a few episodes in each night, which really helps to keep the laughs!
The characters are great, if (slightly) lacking development - although Peralta is still the wisecracking clown in S3, he has matured just a tiny bit. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but some slightly bigger changes would be good - yes Diaz is able to express some emotions, briefly; Holt is more human etc and they feel organic, but sometimes it is a bit forced.
I have really enjoyed the show, so far, and I look forward to seeing any further development - or not! - for the remaining episodes.
Well worth a watch, as a bit of lightweight humour

On the right track
All in all I thought this was a very good movie with great performances especially from Gal and Chris. I really enjoyed the comic levity Chris Pines' character gave between Gal Gadots' naive attitude at times. Also the space inbetween actions scenes I took as a direct link towards her upbringing as she got to basically enjoy herself whilst others learn to fight and then her aunt started to train her and then she started to grow into the woman she is meant to be.

Solid feel good Christmas film
I enjoyed this Christmas film. It had magic, romance and drama. The acting was good and the storyline was a nice Christmas story line.
The main character will be familiar as Bonnie from The Vampire Diaries and as good an actor as she is, she is more annoying than likeable. That is the case in this film too. It's a shame, but the mistake she makes that causes the drama, seems like something a spoilt pentulant toddler would do. You take an instant dislike to her, not that you loved her from the off though.
Overall, I liked the idea and did enjoy the movie. Everyone needs a little magic at Christmas and The Holiday Calendar provides it.

Wasn't the strongest of stories that are like this
Good but had it's down sides
The film was adequate to what other films are out there in this general style, I loved the cast and the filming was good. However the film took a while to kick in and i found myself gorming at my phone more so than watching the film. I really enjoyed some of the story and the action scenes were okay, they could have done a lot more with the film, I feel as though it wasnt thought through as much as it could have been, but overall is a good thing to watch casually if you have the time, or even put it on in the background while you're doing something else.
