Sam (228 KP) rated Chilling Adventures of Sabrina - Part One in TV

Playful Characters (2 more)
Wonderful Casting
Dark Imagery
Horrorifically Wonderful
I absolutely loved this. As someone who grew up watching Sabrina the Teenage Witch this was a beautifully darker twist to the story. They seemed to truly master the darker side of witchcraft and combine it with the true whimsical nature that comes with the original storyline. I couldn't look away and the season finale only left me wanting more as a anxiously wait in anticipation for the next season.

Good Sfx (1 more)
Good cast
Another Disney classic gets the live action treatment. The story is fairly different to the original as it would not work as a live action film on the whole. There are a few homages to some of the classic scenes of the animated version. The SFX are good but everything else is just your standard family film. Lost a bit of the Disney magic in the update.
Auburn (57 KP) rated The Broken Ones (The Malediction Trilogy, #0.6) in Books
Apr 10, 2019
I absolutely fell in love with the original trilogy and couldn't wait to get my hands on the prequel. I am not disappointed.
This gave the reader another glimpse into the world of the trolls and what came to pass before the beloved trilogy and the epic story that followed. The pages are filled with love and a glimpse behind the mask of Marc.
If you loved the trilogy you will not be disappointed by this!

The live action Kim Possible (2019) ends up more two-dimensional than the animated original
There’s none of the wit of the cartoon in the writing or characterisation and it falls awkwardly between trying to introduce the property to a new audience while honouring the source material. In doing so, it rewrites the origins of several characters, eliminates others and presents a story that undermines its title character in favour of a new one...

Original Story
How can 3 women living completely different lives in at the opposite sides of the world impact so much each other destiny?
The braid is a story about strength and endurance, 3 women who fight for a better life for themselves and the people they love. They all strife to free themselves from prejudice, demeaning laws and the worst enemy we all have, ourselves. Moving and inspiring, I read it all in one go.

Excellent Disney family fun
For anyone expecting a reason for this film, there isn't one other than the essence of cinema itself. Entertainment.
Went with my 2 boys 9,11 and came out with happy faces. Having watched the original I can understand the negativity this movie may receive but for kids watching this the first time it's pure Disney magic.
Ticked all the right boxes and frankly couldn't ask for more from a movie.

Red Otter (340 KP) rated Mystic Vale: Vale of the Wild in Tabletop Games
May 30, 2019
Vale of the Wild adds new mechanics to the Mystic Vale game, enabling new and novel strategies. It adds leaders, which can focus your game and give you a boost in the slow early game. It also adds cards that care about corruption, either by having as few cards in your field as possible, or as many red symbols as possible for extra points. It adds variety to the lone original strategy of as many green symbols as possible

Paul (106 KP) rated Dead to Me in TV

Class comedy drama
What could be a boring story regarding a womans life after her husbands death gets spun on its head. Christina Applegate and the rest of the cast put their acting capabilities to the full with this biting story about grieving, loss and redemption.
The twists come thick and fast without being contrived. Give it ago it feels fresh for such a well treaded subject.

Some original parts (3 more)
Funniest Star Wars movie yet
Mark Hamill and Daisy Ridley are superb
Visually stunning
Didn't answer a lot of important questions (4 more)
Some stupid and pointless parts (one in particular)
Can't take Kylo Ren seriously as a villain (not evil enough)
Didn't leave you feeling that the next episode would blow you away
Made me think Disney have just cashed in and are ignoring what made Star Wars great under George Lucas!
