Book Rating
Classic tale of seduction, jealousy and revenge
Having watched and read various versions of this classic story, it was about time to read the original. Hands down, nothing beats this version - a far worse outcome than some of the other depictions. A definite cautionary tale of the consequences of the games that people play with each other.

Book Rating
This book isn't for everyone. He doesn’t write anything that’s warm and fuzzy. He doesn’t even bother attempting to provide an “unreliable” narrator in order to pull his punches– he flat out gives you the worst of the worst.

Lackluster final act (0 more)
The game gets so many things right, from the player’s relationship with Captain Rhodes to the interactivity with the environment, that I’m willing to overlook its disappointing finale.

Great cast (0 more)
Seen it all before, nothing original (2 more)
Not that many fight scenes
Dialogue was hard to make out at times
Rocky this ain't!
A very average boxing film that follows the plot lines of many others. I expected better considering the cast and Director, unfortunately this left me disappointed. Check out @Creed (2015) instead.
  
The Flash  - Season 3
The Flash - Season 3
2016 | Action
In the end, The Flash Season Three is a study in wasted potential and playing to the strengths that built the show, as opposed to pushing the story, characters and actors in new and interesting directions.

Instead of dwelling on what isn’t said on the record, she chooses to use her experiences to find the strength to move on. And so we get the most authentic Kesha album yet, and it’s a triumph

Rainbow by Kesha
2017 | Pop
Rainbow is also a transmutation of Kesha’s own persona — the dollar sign now revealed for the profanity it always was. We began to see this Kesha, a lady of sorrow and of joy, on the gorgeous, show-stopping, melancholy
Critic: Rowan Savage
Original Score : 80 out of 100

2016 | Drama, Mystery, Sci-Fi
Amy Adams performs well on the whole - very well cast (2 more)
Some intelligent plot moves and on the whole the premise feels relatively original
Keeps you watching.
Feels a little too moralistic and utopian-wannabe in parts. (2 more)
Some plot holes, especially around the romance angle
Probably need a new spaceship designer!
Interesting premise, but cheesy in places
  
XCOM 2: War of the Chosen
XCOM 2: War of the Chosen
2017 | Strategy
Ultimately, XCOM 2: War of the Chosen buries even the most tactically-sound gamer under a mountain of entertaining challenges and adds not only several hours of content to play through, but well-neigh infinite replayability as well
Critic- John Jacques
Original Score: 90 out of 100

Villains by Queens Of The Stone Age
Villains by Queens Of The Stone Age
2017 | Rock
Although you can’t fault the band’s ambition, these more grandiose moments do veer into self-indulgence, sometimes resembling a jam session that’s got out of hand. But a lack of self-editing is the only real flaw on an album

Original Score: 8 out of 10
