Not bad
This movie had some good acting(and some mediocre) but the cinematography was good and the story, overall, hit the mark for creepy. This lady played the part of humiliated high schooler turned psycho pretty well. The story unfolded well. A little slow at first but rolled along at a good pace pretty quickly and smoothly. These kids, however, missed so many red flags with this woman. Naivety at it's finest. The ending was a little weak but at least they didn't go the typical "leave it open for a sequel" way Hollywood seems to love doing so much. Some partial nudity but otherwise nothing to graphic for younger viewers, though probably not for too young of viewers. Anyway, for you adults this one is worth a watch.

Funny moments!
Different and engaging!
I really enjoy black mirror. I like the dystopian feel to the episodes, and the realistic moments that come with that. So when I heard about Bandersnatch, I knew I had to watch it (play it?).

I love choose your own adventure stories and games, so bringing that to a movie was such an interesting idea.

The system was very smooth and didn't lag. It was wonderful and drew me in.

I see some people complaining about it being repetitive.. .but it's a choose your own adventure story, so that kind of goes with it. You need to replay it to get the different endings, and if you mess up, you get sent back. That's part of the joy, in my opinion.

I love period films, but I'm not sure this one was up to snuff. I saw the trailer and was immediately interesting. I'm all about historical girl power, when it's legitimate.
The main character, Lakshmibai, was obviously the best part of the film. The story was interesting, but ultimately the acting was sub-standard, excluding the main character.
Devika Bhise, who played Lakshmibai, had the best performance. Though, I found it interesting that she wasn't top billed. It actually bothered me, and I just had to look up who she was on IMDB: she's the 6th actor listed, despite being the lead character. There's something up with that...
Anyway, I would only recommend this if you're very, very interested in the story. I'll probably find a book on the Warrior Queen of Jhansi.

A real page turner
From the beginning of the book you are hooked. Such a warm well wrote book by julia romp telling the tale of life living with an autistic son . Her thoughts and feeling about the lack of communication and love she desperately wants.
Then one day ben a stray cat turns up on the doorstep and there whole world changes.
The story goes through some magical moments where you are left smiling and you dont want to put the book down.
One day while they are on holiday ben goes missing. The story runs through the whole heartache and mystery surrounding the missing cat.
You will find the ending adorable though.
Hope you enjoy the book just as much as I did

Or will she decide that this enchantment is not within her grasp?
