Matthew Krueger (10051 KP) rated Nobody's Fool (1994) in Movies
Nov 26, 2020
Family Man
When you look up "Nobodys Fool", it comes up as the 2018 one on google. So type in "Nobodys Fool 1994" to search this film. Again when you look up thanksgiving films on google this comes up. Its not really a thanksgiving movie, more of a forgiveness film, a film of forgiving, being their for your family, trying to move on from the wrong and looking forward to a new friendship with your son
The plot: Donald "Sully" Sullivan (Paul Newman) is an expert at avoiding adult responsibilities. At 60, he divides all his time between a local bar and the occasional construction job. When his estranged son, Peter (Dylan Walsh), arrives in town, bringing with him a son of his own and a sob story about his failed marriage, Sully finds himself assuming the roles of both father and grandfather. After a life of unchecked self-indulgence, he wonders if he is up to the task.
Bruce Willis reportedly agreed to a substantial pay cut to appear in the film, accepting the SAG-AFTRA scale of $1,400 per week at a time when the actor was earning roughly $15 million for his action movies.
Its a good movie.

Updates in real time regarding traffic and accidents (2 more)
Can link with Spotify
Good GPS
Really reliable!
Really good GPS! Would argue better than actual Google maps!
This GPS alerts you when you are going over speed, alerts you of any mile changes, as well as any upcoming accidents, speed cameras and police cars. So make you very wary of your surroundings even more so!
Also links with your Spotify music as well which is rather handy when the app alerts you, ad it doesn't skip part of a song, it just pauses and resumes after notifying you of any updates.

Erika (17788 KP) rated Microsoft Outlook in Apps
May 19, 2019 (Updated May 19, 2019)
So, I'm strange and don't use the email app through android for my different emails. So, I have both Outlook and Google Mail.
It's an alright app in general. The thing that takes it down to just ok is the stupid focused email folder vs the general inbox. I like when the focused email folder has the important things, like shipping confirmations and emails from family, BUT, for some unknown reason, Outlook also places weird junk emails into the folder. Because, you know, my focused inbox needs the weird spam emails in it about the keto diets and help with ED (EYE ROLL).

May 24, 2019 (Updated May 24, 2019)
This is one of the most addictive games I have played, it in the style of flappy birds but way harder.
You have to manoeuvre your flying saucer through the satellite by tapping the screen there warp hole and Shields to help you but it is still impossible to score over 20.
This fun little game is ideal to play when you have 10mins to kill, it's hard to believe that it was made by a 10year old but.
It's only available on the Google store so check it out today.

Erika (17788 KP) rated Cat Quest in Apps
Jul 24, 2018 (Updated Jul 24, 2018)
I was able to purchase this app after winning the Google Play App giveaway here on Smashbomb.
My brother saw this game on his Nintendo Switch a couple of months ago, and since he sent me the name, I'd wanted to download it. Luckily, with the giveaway win, I was able to.
Cat Quest is a fun, cute RPG, where you play as a cat that goes on quests, defeats monsters, and learns magic. It's easy to play, and to level up to get some serious questing done. Overall, I love this game, and will continue playing it every day.

AmyBee (4 KP) rated The Ladykiller (DI Kate Burrows, #1) in Books
Sep 6, 2018
I really enjoyed this, despite having pre-existing ideas about Cole's writing. The story is very gripping and Cole does not use as many over-repeated phrases as her other books, although there is still a fair bit of Cockney slang written into it. (Some of which, I was forced to google!)
The anatagonist, George Markham, is a truly chilling character. The protagonist, Kate Burrows is a tough cop who's façade is only let down by her truly pathetic infatuation with the local mafiosa, Patrick Kelly.
Overall, a good read and very unputdownable. Shame Cole doesn't write like this all the time!

Emma @ The Movies (1786 KP) rated Child's Play (2019) in Movies

Having never seen a Chucky film before I'm not sure how to take them, this was quite amusing, in a gory overkill kind of a way. I liked the modern technology aspect of the movie despite it giving me haunting memories of my own Google Home trying to scare me, and I think that will particularly appeal to more modern audiences. For the life of me though I don't understand how the Buddi doll made it through focus testing.

Great way to get morning news (3 more)
Check weather anytime
Understands a lot, even most of the mumblings of the 4 year old.
Can work as an intercom system for large homes.
We love our google- use it for everything from checking weather, to asking stumped homework questions. Also a great tool for those random useless facts you are interesting in. It will tell jokes if you ask, and even lets you ask what Santa is doing, which the kids love doing closer to Christmas.

Vast range of documentaries (1 more)
Easy to use app
Use it everyday
The content on Netflix is not bad, it has a great range of TV series and documentaries, however they seem to be slightly behind Amazon Prime and quite a lot behind Now TV in terms of movies.
The app itself is great, it's easy to use and utilising Chromecast and Google Home means I can watch Netflix on TV with only my voice or a touch of the button on the app. It's well made, more so than watching Amazon Prime as it still does not have this functionality.
