Kate (355 KP) rated Once Upon a Time - Season 1 in TV
Jan 3, 2019
Once upon a time is a mash up of all the different fairy tale characters and them living happily or not so happily together in modern life. You have all the favourite ones such as The Wicked Witch, Hook, Snow White and many others. The musical episode in one of the later series's is brilliant and will have you singing the songs. They needed to end it on a high when the last story line came to an end and some of the main characters left, but they have tried to keep it going by introducing new characters and people but didn't work, sorry stopped watching it then.

It isn’t Christmas without Elf
The majority of classic Christmas films tend to be fairly old school, but Elf is by far the best more modern Christmas film - despite now being 15 years old.
It’a absolutely hilarious, and so lovely and heart warming too. The plot is fun and entertaining, and there are some great performances from Will Ferrell and James Caan, there are some really brilliant quotes and lines in this. It’s showing it’s age a little bit now and some of the effects are a bit dodgy, but it’s still a classic festive film. It really isn’t Christmas until you watch Elf.

Good yet unnecessary adaptation of the classic animated film.
The movie did a good job of capturing the essence of the original animated film. Cast and set were able to recreate much of the fun and adventure of the original, a feat Disney is often able to do. Where the film suffers is in its foray into modern social movements seemingly for no reason, and the absence of two key voices, Gilbert Gottfried and the incomparable Robin Williams. Will Smith and Alan Tudyk are sufficient but don't come close to the former iconic role players. Overall, the film was good, yet in the grand scheme of things seemed unnecessary.
Pip pip Hooray!
As chick lit goes you could do worse than this. Basically it’s the trials and tribulations of a modern love story involving a clown called Pip and an accountant named Zac. Totally predictable but also somehow comforting like a cwtch under a warm blanket on a cold day.
In some parts you want to shake the pair of them. I cried at some parts (I know!!! Anyone who reads my reviews knows that this isn’t unknown!!!) but I did enjoy the book very much. If you wants a well written, heartwarming piece of fluff, this is the one.

Music to be listened to
So after another album drop, Eminem surprised us with another loaded playlist which includes multiple spitfire spots that'll make your jaw ache and head pound attempting to imitate, or maybe that's just me?
Music to be murdered by features some instant hits like Godzilla, farewell, stepdad & leaving Heaven - just to name a few.
Featuring several other talents including Royce da 5'9, young ma, skylar grey, Anderson .Paak & juice world (R.I.P)
This was a unique musical puzzle.
This album is clearly showing signs of old school Eminem well blended with a Modern day Marshall Mathers.

A good old fashioned murder mystery brought up to speed for the modern-day.
I listened to the audiobook read by Rory Kinnear who had a bit of an uperty sounding accent to me but it worked well for the character of the author who ends up trailing ex DI Hawthorne as he investigates a murder with mysterious circumstances. It's a cleverly written book.
The characters are on the grating side but it's embraced in the book and I think there is a lot of potential moving forward for this series to get into the details of the gruff no-nonsense Hawthorne. There's plenty to think about in this captivating mystery.
