Demi (22 KP) rated A Christmas Carol in Books
Apr 25, 2018
A classic
I still love this story after countless readings and about as many reboots. Few are unfamiliar with the story, which lends itself well to contemporary retellings. But I enjoy revisiting the original now and then. It's a very quick read, and one of my favorite ghost stories and tales of redemption. If Scrooge can change, who can't?

Toned down and having to open up with a new plot and antagonists, since the original fortune hunters are now all dead, this one does retread the same ground but still, it entertaining.
The costumes have become more tame, as has the overall feel, but it delivers the formula and is now becoming quite practiced at it.

Reliable and easy to use
I prefer Libby to the original overdrive app for reading and listening to my library books. Passages can now be highlighted in the ebooks on Libby. Audio is easy to navigate and bookmark. Browsing for books and audios are easy.
One downside is that the books/audios download automatically, I’d rather choose.

Good genre blender
A decent Horror, Thriller mash up as a group of kidnappers get more than they bargained for. For a low budget film the effects are OK, the story is good with a decent twist. If you don't mind something off the main stream for your horror thrills then check this out.

Fantastic Beasts: CoG Simply put, falls short of its predecessors. Revelations in the movie are just put there to make the story fit into the original source material of the Wizarding World. Outrage over the overall film and not its characters afflictions should have been forefront.
Peter G. (247 KP) rated Blade II (2002) in Movies

Prior to his run in with the law, Snipes was quite the action star and this follow up to the surprising original gives us another action packed comic book entry that kicks ass and is an exciting watch with an interesting new villain.
There is also an interesting conflict introduced into the plot that augments an aleady good storyline.

Although different to the book, it is a good, almost addicting series in its own way

Certain scenes within some of the episodes can seem quite graphic or off putting to the person watching, especially for emotional people
Chrissie-ann (78 KP) rated Jeepers Creepers III (2017) in Movies
Jun 18, 2018
Poor
This film was poor on so many levels, I usually don't mind watching low rates, low budget horror films. But this is worst than most I have seen. The original films years ago put a fear deep inside me. This one made me laugh, at how poor the acting was, how poor the effects were.

A Classic
I first read this a few years ago and I absolutely loved it. I keep meaning to read more of his books but haven’t as yet.
Everyone knows the story from the many many films that have been made over the years but to read the original story as he intended it makes for an interesting read!
