Entertainment Editor (1988 KP) rated Tigris & Euphrates in Tabletop Games
Mar 7, 2018
The best edition of one of the best, must-own board games in the world.
Tigris & Euphrates is one of my favourite games of the last twenty years, and a true classic of the modern boardgame era. Looking at the BGG rankings again, I find it an affront that it is not in the top-20 like it once used to be. Its current edition is the best that has ever been published. This is a must-buy; that's just it.

This is a well written and sweet coming out book. The uncertainty of knowing who you are in an world that you know is not kind and accepting is captured by Archer. Eve lays low figuring just get to college and life can begin for her. The she is talked into trying a new GLBT dating app. The worst that can happen in social media does but then the best. It definately was a cute book and I really wish there were more books like this when I was a teenager.

Couldn't connect with characters
50 Shades Repeat
I tried so hard to like this book, but all I kept thinking was that I have read it before! My eye-rolls were constant and I felt nothing throughout the entire book. I wasn't upset when characters were upset, I didn't feel joy when characters were happy. I typically enjoy books that fall into this genre; however, this book missed the mark for me. I will probably still read the next book just to see if my opinion changes on the series.

Get Low
From a young age I was more into action adventures than anything, I remember great memories of NFSU2 also many arguments haha, taking in all comers and rarely losing (big head 😁) there was nothing like the feeling that ran through me during the opening, that is until the the game started, stunning graphics, an epic playlist, thrilling race's and a really enjoyable story thrown in.
NFSU2 is without a shadow of a doubt one of my all time favourite games.

Not my favourite Xmen movie.
Jean Grey wasn't my favourite Xmen anyway while she is overshadowed by the greatness that is Wolverine and Professor X. But this movie didn't make me like her any more. Granted, it didn't make me dislike her more but I just thought her character wasn't fully realised within the film. Whether that was the actors fault or the director I don't know. Thank goodness it lies in a separate timeline to some of the other Xmen films because I will not be watching this again.

Enjoyable
First series was not too bad but won't set the world on fire. It's a hard one to review because it just lacked that something but I don't know what that something is. Will I watch series two? Yes probably, I feel it's going to get better as the characters develop. I think on some of the scenes I should be on the edge of my seat like I was with GOT et al but I wasn't. Let's hope it grows, it has the capacity to do so.
Erika (17789 KP) rated Aggretsuko- Season 1 in TV
Jan 21, 2019 (Updated Jan 21, 2019)
I wish this show had been around when I totally worked a terrible office job, but alas, it wasn't. Retsuko vents her anger by singing metal karaoke, and raging. I totally felt her rage, and wish I would have had an outlet like that. I can't wait until there are more episodes this year.
My only complaint, which is towards Netflix, is that the dub and the subtitles did not match at times, and sometimes, the characters were having different conversations. Dude, Netflix, just match the dub and subs.

Great story
Must watch TV
A truly binge worthy TV programme that will whizz by at just 8 episodes long. I had heard many good reviews for this and highly rated by TV critics as well. It has a very good gripping storyline that will hook you in. As slowly more is revealed over time and in flashbacks why an apparently random act of violence has a lot more to it. Great acting from the leads as well. If you like crime thrillers then check this out!

Not as good as the others
After saving the President twice before you would think that Mike Banning would have a not been one of the first people suspected of organising a hit on the Potus, but that is the conclusion arrived at on circumstantial evidence...
Pretty standard action film fare, quite predictable and not as good as Olympus and London but still worth a watch if you are an action movie fan or a fan of the series...
Or just like hearing Morgan Freeman speak...

Andrew Koltuniuk (767 KP) rated Do the Right Thing (1989) in Movies
Apr 21, 2020
This was my first Spike Lee film. And while I struggled with this film, I really like him as a director. He has a great way of making the film seem so real and bold. I think that Do the Right Thing has a lot of very interesting things to say about the American Culture and makes a lot of good points, it was just very hard for me to relate to any of the characters in this film. I really appreciate the time and the effort that Spike put into this though.
