Ok follow up
A follow up to @Murder Mystery (2019) that doesn't seem to have had much publicity. Just popped up on Top picks this week.
Much the same formula as before our detective couple are invited to a wedding on a remote island, perfect setting for a murder or not?
Didn't really make great use of the remote island setting and less of a Murder Mystery this time round with more action. Still very fun scenes nearly all with the main couple on screen. Maybe not as lavish as the first but still a fun film.

This is the first in the series of vitality and what a first it is!


It seems like a true love story with lots of twists. I do not want to say too much as I don't want to give anything away, I was hooked when I first started reading and really didn't want to put it down. I honestly can't wait till the second instalment even though my head feels mushed right now!


There are some rather dark moments and an absolute whirlwind of emotion.


I recommend reading it. I thought it was brilliant.

Predictable
Very Basic, but still Enjoyable Enough
You know, I actually enjoyed this film. Yes it’s predictable and doesn’t do anything that hasn’t been done before. AND it feels like a typical Liam Neeson film. Not to mention the one dimensional bad guys.

But I can’t help but love Liam Neeson. And I’m a sucker for those “older man helps kid” storylines. I find the film heartwarming and it somehow struck a cord with me. Plus it wasn’t too long so it didn’t feel like it dragged on. Not an amazing movie by any means, but I found myself fairly engaged.

Quick to play, 15-25 min
Tough Choices
Want to play again immediately
plays up to 8 players
Pairs well with wine
Small box, you can take it out and about, to wineries maybe
You can learn about all different kinds of wines
Client cards make it different each time
A great, easy to play game about wine and how it ages
It's a fantastic game you can play with people who don't play a lot of games, but if you are a person who plays games, this feels like a modern classic like For Sale, but a much better theme.

insignificant
#antmanandthewasp feels like a step backwards for our tiny #hero, this time instead of feeling bigger & better what we are left with is a film which is simply just ok. I loved #antman it was a refreshing & unique entry to the already overcrowded & overdone #superhero gene. Now we have the inevitable #sequel & im sad to say that i really didnt care for it i at all. Not only does it lack genuine excitement but the entire #film feels draw out & underwhelming too. Ant man 2 really bored me & for a superhero film thats not good. Action is sparse with everything noticeably feeling strangely lower budget this time. The cgi is bad, locations are drab & visually dull, set pieces are incredibly forgettable & fights lack excitement/thrill. This would all be fine if the film held my attention elsewhere but the plot & story are just as bad here. There's no sense of urgency at all & the stakes just dont seem very high, this isnt helped by some really out of place/silly characters & a conatant lack of seriousness throughout. I get that the film needs to be fun but when the #humour is this cringe & its getting in the way/effecting the scenes that need to have an #emotional punch then im sorry but it just makes me just lose empathy for all the characters. This also means theres no tension at all & the films so wrapped up in constantly explaining to us whats going on/happening that it ends up making you realise your watching a movie instead of being immersed in its law. Acting is a mixed bag #michaeldouglas & #michellefifer are clearly trying here but almost everyone else looks like they are going through the motions to get paid. Over all Ant man 2 is one big piece of exposition & filler that i cant recommend going to see. Its dull, forgettable, over simplistic & so stuffed full of unnecesary padding that its lost what made the first one so fun. A film that we just really didnt need where even the #stanlee #cameo feels overlong. #odeonlimitless #odeon #ant #silly #funny #mcu #marvel #disney #friyay #filmbuff #filmcritic #paulrudd #wasp #insect #comic #comicon #filmreview #hope #film
