Uncharted, because no one knows where their going..
Uncharted is a live action take on the extremely popular video-game franchise of the same name.
Featuring a bunch of top Hollywood names both past and present, the first installment focuses on the fourth installment of the games and changes a lot of the original plot making for some very interesting possible sequels.
A lot of great action scenes and sequences and some light humour (although more humour was needed) and a straight forward plot made this a very enjoyable action adventure.
The duo of Mark whalberg as Victor sully and Tom Holland as Nathan drake is a very odd but fitting piece that seems to work naturally.
Did you know?
Mark whalberg was originally set to play Nathan drake before being bumped to play Victor sully so Tom Holland could play Nathan drake.
Nathan fillion was also poised to play Nathan drake as fans wanted it, although it didn't happen, fillion did make a short film where he played uncharted's protagonist.
(it's on YouTube).
-maybe we'll see MW play Nathan drake one day.

This isn't a bad book, none of the Discworld books Are, I just don't think it's quite as strong a story as many of the others I've read. Teppic is a great character, it was good to find out more about the assassins guild and I like the fact that it was set in the time of mummies and pyramids. My issue mainly is that the plot gets a little too bonkers and for my tastes there wasn't as much humour in this.

Good cast (2 more)
Quite funny
Something different from most Horror films
Cool original Horror film
A decent twist to the old creepy cabin in the woods genre. It led to an unusual feel to the film though, it wasn't like watching a slasher film as you know something else is going on behind the scenes. It has a fair bit of dark humour to it as well. The twist does make for a more interesting film, so at least it tried something different.

At last I've finally seen it, more out of curiosity than anything else. I'm not a fan of Hugh Grant, seems he can only play the upper class, bumbling English idiot in all his films, which becomes annoying. I can see why this is so well liked by some. It does have some quirky British humour and a witty script. However it's way too long and typically cheesy as well. Not bad but personally think there are much better Rom-coms out there.

With beautiful illustrations and interesting subject matter, this book is a win-win with curious children. and although it is quite short, it fills a child with wonder and lets them take in what they want before progressing to more challenging reading material. The urine colour section will amuse children young and old, toilet humour at its best.
I am reviewing this book for Luann Columbo, Quarto Publishing, and NetGalley who gave me a copy of their book for an honest review.

Apr 28, 2019 (Updated Apr 29, 2019)
A pretty decent black comedy/love story with a good amount of humour. Set in the swinging 60's in East London. The girls from the band All Saints star in this along side a good array of English acting talent. The girls look to rob places up town to get a better way of life for their family but get mixed up in all sorts of trouble way above their heads. An enjoyable film catch it if it's on.

A story of John Cusacs record store owning character's decent into madness as he tries to recall why his relationships are a failure.
Another fantastic comedy where it's difficult to find a weak point, all players are on form with stand out mention to Jack Black who munches through every scene he is in.
Championship records is not the place to buy music you love personally, unless you want a detailed reason why your musical taste sucks.
