There was just too much going on in this for me. I never got into the romance between Jack and D and there were so many characters introduced.

Perfection. Long movie, but wish it was longer. Wish there were more deleted scenes. When i watched this movie, there was still no information that fans were getting Hobbit movies, so this really felt like an end to a very captivating journey. I literally felt empty. Throughout the movies, i felt like i was right there, with our favorite characters, on a journey. There were tears and there were smiles. Beautiful scenery where it all was filmed was mesmerizing. And i'm sure that the ending made everyone cry. I wish this journey didn't end, it was too good.

I went into this movie, just hoping it'd make me laugh... I laughed once. Maybe I'm just not a Kate McKinnon fan, but her character was annoying, and there was little to no depth there. I was also not buying into the fact that McKinnon and Kunis' characters were 30 years old, at first I thought it was a joke, but it wasn't. Overall, it was a bloated mess that went on for way too long. At least Sam Heughan was there for eye candy.

Pretty good.
I've always been interested in these kind of documentarys and the chilling fact that they are true. I enjoyed this one also and the way they told the story was great, but I found there was something lacking and I drifted away a few times. There was too much hype leading up to it and it disappointed because of that.

I really enjoyed this but was not too keen on the ending in all honesty. Felt like a full stop where there should have been another chapter!

I have NO IDEA as to why I thought this YA book may be different from all of the other recent ones I've read, and subsequently sworn off.
There was way too much about race in this, it was so distracting. The main character, vanilla-boring January's physical appearance was mentioned at least every few pages. It's just bizarre to me, this book needed an edit.
The description promises a fantasy, well, there was a lot of fantasy that was talked about, but none that I saw. Show me, don't tell me.
Then, there was the introduction of a story within a story. I stopped reading, then thought to myself, wow, this is pretty crappy, but I'll keep on. After ten minutes, I officially returned the digital copy to the library.
This book was not magical, it was boring, and there was too much exposition. I am NEVER reading another YA book, unless it's a Star Wars one. I've learned my lesson, yet again.

Watched Tuesday it was everything I was expecting from Jordan peele the right amount of suspension won't give away too many spoilers but it was brilliant start to finish up there with us and get out
  
Huh...i thought I'd enjoy this more. It dragged in places and I definitely felt like I was reading something that was written in the nineties. It wasn't modern enough for me romance wise. I like my rough and ready, dirty talking guys and my kick arse gals but other than the occasional scene, it wasn't there.

It had a good premise but it fell short for me. It was too long, too. I get bored by long books.
