Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016)
2016 | Action, Drama, Fantasy, Sci-Fi
Fantastic
I'd go so far as saying this is one of the best Star Wars films. It has a fantastic cast, great script and a thrilling and tense storyline. Gareth Edwards has turned a risky one off prequel into a brilliant and entertaining film. Felicity Jones is a great lead, and I think K-2S0 might be my all time favourite robot, the humour he injects into this film is spot on.

Nice character design (2 more)
Fun story
Plenty of humour for adults as well
Not quite on the same level as Toy Story and other Pixar films (0 more)
Warm & fuzzy animation
A bright, colourful animated film with some funny characters. The story is ok and there is plenty to keep the older generation amused as well. Personally for me it's not as good as @Toy Story (1995) and a few other Pixar films.

2010 | Action, Mystery
A great fun, action, bloody, Grindhouse B-Movie with an all star cast. Not heard much about this, apparently a follow up film from a short trailer from the Death Proof film. So imagine the likes of Sin City, Pulp fiction with a latin feel and tongue in cheek humour firmly in place. A pure fun, entertaining film not to be taken seriously. If you're a fan of Robert Rodriguez's films, you'll like it.

1999 | Action, Comedy
A decent action film set at the end of the Iraq war. Three soldiers learn the location of some stolen Kuwaiti gold and plan to help themselves. On their mission they encounter the harsh reality of the current state of the country.
It has a fine cast and is well made, without feeling like a hollywood blockbuster. It has the right mix of action and drama, even a bit of humour too.
  
Transformers (2007)

2007 | Action, Sci-Fi
Just what you want from a blockbuster film. Great action all the way, amazing SFX and a fair share of humour. The effects are just breathtaking, not felt like that since I watched The Matrix! It has a very simple storyline and as a fan of the toys, animated movie it would have been nice to see more of the other Transformers characters. Overall though it's a brill blockbuster that will thoroughly entertain you!!

The added humour, stunts, special effects, Loki of course and a continuation of the story. Has become one of my favorites. (0 more)
The extra comic value added made it feel a little like Guardians of the galaxy or a deadpool edge in my opinion, which for me slightly removed some of the gravity and punch of the movie. (0 more)
Good film, slightly different feel to the series.
Thoroughly decent film overall. Would watch a second time.

I LOVE this.
I got it in a Goodreads giveaway, was really looking forward to this one, and it did not disappoint.
A charming story about Pug's adventure, a fun plotline with great humour, and surrounded with wonderful illustrations.
Now to pass on to my 9 and 7 yr old as I know they will like the story, and could easily read it by themselves.
I'll be looking out for future books.

Album Rating
Solid Latino New York Hip Hop
Probably arriving a couple of years too late and on a more indie rock label, As The World Burns never really made the impact an album as good as this should have done.

This is solid Hip Hop where the MCs sound passionate, with plenty of humour, punchlines and just dope beats. Q-Unique stood out but non of the emcees are week. Just go listen to it.
