Thumper
Thumper
2017 | Action/Adventure
By the end of Thumper, the speed is insane, the music wild and oppressive, and the feeling of just barely holding on to a beast that wants to send you flying so it can gnaw your bones is disturbingly strong.
Critic- James Cunningham
Original Score: 4 out of 5

Profit Over People: Neoliberalism & Global Order
Profit Over People: Neoliberalism & Global Order

Depressing, important but unstructured
As a general Chomsky fan, his arguments are always important and well rounded. However, this book felt very unstructured and more like a long rant. He switched from one country to another making it difficult to follow his original message and it ends up being a jumble of disputes. I've definitely read better of his works.
  
Pyre
Pyre
2017 | Role-Playing
I could easily see this being the type of game some people will adore and obsess over, while others will struggle to finish. If what I've described piques your curiosity and you're a sucker for well-written characters, this is likely worth a go.

Pyre
2017 | Role-Playing
“Pyre” demonstrates that video game designers may have much to gain by exploring the costs of achievement and the rewards of failure.
  
Lust For Life by Lana Del Rey
Lust For Life by Lana Del Rey
2017 | Alternative, Indie, Rock
While many of the song titles and clumsy references may have a discerning music fan scoffing at Del Rey’s predictability, there remains an admirably unflinching quality to this record (even if it is five tracks too long)
Critic- Harriet Gibsone
Original Score: 4 out of 5

The Last Tycoon
The Last Tycoon
2017 | Drama
This new Tycoon, by Amazon Studios and Tri-Star Television, is a winner on all counts. For admirers of Fitzgerald’s book – not to mention those who think “they don’t make them like they used to” – this show is a must-see.
Critic - Michael Troyan
Original Score: 4 out of 5

Midnight, Texas
Midnight, Texas
2017 | Drama, Fantasy, Mystery
You have to approach "Midnight, Texas" with caution, but if you're the kind of viewer who can let a bit of fantastical fun drive a quasi-dramatic narrative , then you're in for a treat.

Something different
Bit of a strange film a Western with a horror twist. It has a good cast and witty dialogue but some how felt rather low budget. The main problem is the film could easily be cut by about 30 minutes. It's very slow at the start and middle section. At least it's original.

Moving story
A great and very original film based on a Stephen King story. Also directed by the same director as @The Shawshank Redemption (1994). Also set within a Prison as a guard tells his story of working on Death row and the inmates he came across.
  
Home Again (2017)
Home Again (2017)
2017 | Comedy, Drama, Romance
Home Again isn't worth getting worked up over. It's not particularly good, is completely tone deaf, and makes no sense at all. But chances are you'll forget about it long before you see Witherspoon again in something much better.
Critic- Travis Hopson
Original Score: 2.5 out of 5
