David McK (3801 KP) rated Playing with Fire (Skulduggery Pleasant, #2) in Books
Nov 9, 2025
Hmmmm ... I'm unsure what to feel about this one.
The second in Derek Landy's 'Skulduggery Pleasant' series (after Skulduggery Pleasant), this - for large part - feels juvenile, very much aimed towards a younger audience.
And then we get short, sudden shocks of pure body horror, enough to give (I imagine) the more sensitive young reader nightmares.
So, if it was a movie, large parts PG, maybe, with certain other sections more like an 18.
Anyway, knowing that (and with that in mind), it's enjoyable enough, continuing on the story of Skulduggery Pleasant and Valkyrie Cain that was started in the previous novel, with plenty of plot threads left hanging open for the sequels.

Blazing Minds (92 KP) rated Bill & Ted Face the Music (2020) in Movies
Oct 29, 2021 (Updated Nov 3, 2021)
I remember seeing Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure back in the cinemas in 1989, it was a most excellent movie packed with time-travelling laughs and some brilliant music, now years after their Bogus Journey they are back to Face The Music and this time they bring their family with them.
The film does seem to start of fairly slow before it finds its footing to bring us not only what feels like how the original movies felt, but also gives us that nostalgic feel of those days of crazy films that were purely for the entertainment value to make us laugh and Bill & Ted Face the Music certainly had me laughing and laughing a lot.

Independent Reviewer for Archaeolibrarian - I Dig Good Books!
This is the second instalment in the Ash and Blue series and I found it thrilling. There has been a lot of research gone into this book and it has a very easy flow to read. You can feel the emotions that the characters are going through and the conflict that Ryan feels with some of the decisions he has to make.
It definitely captured me from the first page and I couldn't wait to find out what was going on.
I'm not sure if there will be another one but I would certainly like to see one

LeftSideCut (3776 KP) rated We Summon the Darkness (2019) in Movies
Jul 6, 2022
We Summon the Darkness goes all in with its comedy-horror angle, and manages to fall short in every aspect. There are multiple scenes of extended dialogue that seemingly never end. Not necessarily a problem, but it's dialogue that goes nowhere, is painfully boring, and feels heavily improvised by a group of actors who don't really care. It's mind boggling how much this happens throughout the runtime. When things eventually kick off, it's still boring. When Johnny Knoxville finally turns up, it's boring. When the insufferable characters start to die, it's boring. Its low on scares, set pieces, and humour, making We Summon the Darkness a gigantic (half-arsed) swing and a miss.
