Fast paced thriller
Dwayne Johnson is released from prison for his part in a bank robbery and immediately goes on a mission to track down and kill his brother's murderers. However, someone is also trying to track and kill him too.
What follows is a series of encounters between Johnson and his targets and Johnson and his would-be killer with some cops trying to keep up with it all. It moves along at pace and keeps your interest right up until the twist at the end which I did not see coming.

Slick, intelligent thriller with a lot of twists
It's been a while since I've a genuinely coherent thriller. The characters are fabulous, two guys, one secretly in love with the other, just attempting to find and understand the disappearance of two boys. There is twist after twist, but while there is zero character development, the plot is enough to keep listening. It's slightly different to the current theme of 'neurotic woman finds killer' story. It is also very witty in places and extremely dark. A thoroughly enjoyable listen.

The Past Catches Up With Us All
Return to Arkane's Dishonored universe and play either as an older Emily, who grown up into a killer assassin, or as her father Corvo, now older and more weather beaten. The gameplay is similar to the first game, but new powers and abilities have been added to the player's arsenal. The story expands out of Dunwall and into Victorian Europe, where certain targets must be brought down for Emily to retake her rightful place on the throne.

Superb stalk and slash with Savini effects
Tonight's viewing is this little gem from the 80s. Standard stalk and slash who dunnit with a very predictable killer but it's the work of gore wizard Tom Savini that's the real star here and what separates it from the other many slasher films made during the 80s and 90s. He gives us so many amazing death scenes with effects that hold up 37 whole years since release. A must watch for slasher fans and gore hounds!

Well written (1 more)
A mix of humour
Sharp, witty and thrilling
I'm a little late at getting round to watching this, having heard very good reviews about it. It's a great premise a serial killer working in the Miami police dept who targets other killers. It's very witty as well and largely has a darkly comic side to it. The story running through the series though plays out like a top selling thriller novel. It's a great mix that works very well. If you missed it check it out.

Amazing from start to end.
Contains spoilers, click to show
I love this game for the beginning and couldn't stop playing until I completed it. I was shocked to discover the true killer behind her father's death and was satisfied with everything.
When the game ended with her sacrificing herself to save the world I almost cried but was so glad she didn't actually die and took over her family business. I just hope she would do a few more adventures and that the series wouldn't end there.
