Aug 26, 2017
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

GameCritics (290 KP) rated XCOM 2: War of the Chosen in Video Games
Sep 6, 2017
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

MusicCritics (472 KP) rated Villains by Queens Of The Stone Age in Music
Sep 11, 2017
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

MusicCritics (472 KP) rated Happy Endings by Old Dominion in Music
Sep 11, 2017
The music is smarter and hotter than the lyrics on Happy Endings, though the latter have the odd genius metaphor, too. Even as an anthropological exercise in redneck seduction, this is a fascinating album — maybe not brilliant, but fascinating

Movie Critics (823 KP) rated The Martian (2015) in Movies
Aug 9, 2017
Ridley Scott has managed to take a simple story of a man thought lost in space and turn it into a heroic adventure of survival, drama and emotion. Easily within my top 3 of the year

Movie Critics (823 KP) rated Ingrid Goes West (2017) in Movies
Aug 12, 2017
Ingrid Goes West heavily explores obsession, stalker behavior, and the need to be noticed, both on social media and in real life. It also touches on the duality of online personas versus the ones we lead in real life.

Aug 12, 2017
Overall, Spicer has gathered a fantastic ensemble of actors, their chemistry leaping off the screen and making for a hugely enjoyable watch. For every Instagram persona, there’s always much more than meets the eye, and Ingrid proves exactly that.

Movie Critics (823 KP) rated The Only Living Boy In New York (2017) in Movies

The Only Living Boy In New York is well worth watching; it reveals how lies and insecurities unravel us and how truth puts us back together again—with a few scars to show we’ve truly lived.

MusicCritics (472 KP) rated Everything Now by Arcade Fire in Music
Aug 12, 2017
So view Everything Now as a glass half empty due to its inconsistency or as a glass half full of standout singles. You won’t be able to ignore it though, which, in today’s crowded musical landscape, is triumph in itself

Sep 12, 2017
The game looked like a very grim,zombie-killing game. It was actually was a ridiculously impressive and immersive strategy game.There are a few technicalities,but overall there's nothing out there that gives you such a feeling of fight-or-flight
