Heart Wrenching Feels
I cannot put into words how much I loved and hated this movie. The cast is absolutely amazing. The graphics are amazing. If my father were still alive he would have had his mind blown by this flick. The only negative thing I can say about this movie is that it broke my heart into a thousand little pieces. I loathe cliffhangers and waiting for the second part of this movie is going to be murder.

A sweeping adventure that pulls you in and keeps you on the edge of your seat through each page. The world building is phenomenal and the characters are mysterious and compelling in their own rights. Lovers of fantasy and adventure will enjoy the new world Vickers has built.
My only downside is at some points it feels drawn out and you wish to just jump back to the action. Take heart that it does get easier and one just has to stick through the slower pieces.

Amazing!
It has everything you could want. Romance, history, fantasy, drama and as the series continues suspense. I can not out it down when I read it. I blew through the series in a week. I can't wait to see how the tv show will come out. This is a must read if you like romance books. It got me in the feels as much as a Nicholas sparks book but different. The character development through out is amazing as well. She is a great writer.

Entertaining Sci-Fi film
A really good film that feels low budget but with blockbuster SFX. I didn't realise at first from the trailers it was a hand-held cam, POV film and this is handled very well with the kids abilities! Really good effects as they become stronger with their powers. Only downside the film is far too short at 77mins, the end felt kinda rushed and obvious as well. Still a very enjoyable film though, while it lasts.
Awix (3310 KP) rated The Vampire Lovers (1970) in Movies
Feb 17, 2018 (Updated Feb 17, 2018)
Provocative-at-the-time Hammer exploitation movie; Ingrid Pitt's first starring role for the company. Voluptuous vampire Carmilla (Pitt) preys upon aristocratic young women in fairy-tale Mitteleuropa.
Much stronger on gratuitous nudity and heavily implied lesbianism than on narrative coherency; good supporting cast of British character actors is very much put in the shade by a powerful, charismatic performance from Ingrid Pitt. All feels a bit tame by modern standards, but good enough production values and acting to keep it credible and mildly interesting.

I loved this book. I've only read one other from this series and it was quite some time ago but I fell straight back into the story and it's as if I'd never left (Yes that is the proper use for 'it's' Thank you Cole) I love that Cole is a stickler for the correct use for words and how he makes Sasha write her feels down in the journal. I'm just going to have to read the rest of the series again now

There are roles that feel like they were written for the actor. The main character feels like he was written for Matt Damon. I did read the book first and it was easy to picture Matt Damon as a witty braniac botanist. Probably because at the end of the day that's just who he is.
This movie is about a man's surviving, not only the untamed dessert wasteland that makes Mars, but also the crippling aloness of being the only human for hundreds of thousands of miles.

Joe Julians (221 KP) rated Deadpool 2 (2018) in Movies

Full review here:
When it's on form, Deadpool 2 is stronger than the original and some of its laughs are considerably funnier. But it feels a tad too muddled in places. It's as if the film has so much it wants to do that it loses some focus and doesn't quite end up being as satisfying as the debut. Still a great time though and this does have perhaps the greatest mid-credits sequence ever seen in a movie.

Kind of forgettable
Alicia Vikander is perfectly cast as Lara Croft, but doesn't have much to do in this very predictable, nothing new story. Feels like The Mummy movies, kind of boring in some parts and the 3rd act is a big let down.
Maybe they tried to play this one a little less on the CGI which is great, but still has to be interesting.
Hopefully, they will still make another on of these but make it more interesting.
