A Sub-par Film
I didn't love it and I didn't hate it. While the story had potential it wasn't executed as well as it could of been and a few times I got a bit lost. It needed more explanation in the beginning, that would have made the concept of 'jumping' easier to understand. In conclusion, it was alright if you have nothing else to watch.

Ever felt like you're doing the same thing over and over again, but can't remember when? Yeah, that's this movie. You don't even get time to blink, it's simply straight into action, again and again. Surprisingly, you don't feel like the repetition is getting old. A fast paced, thrilling ride, right to the very end. Plus it's Stephen Amell's cousin so he's very easy on the eyes :p Not bad for an Netflix Original.

2017 | Action/Adventure
With just ten minutes to go I was convinced What Remains of Edith Finch was going to be one of the very best games this year.I’m still absolutely enamoured of its characters,setting,atmosphere,attention to detail,and the great bulk of its narrative.

It May Be Dawn, But The Sun Shines For This Film
I loved this film as much as the first and falls in the rare category of sequel as good as the original,
All the way through the story, if the apes and humans just spoke to each other and were honest. Everything would have ended nicely and quicker

Hilarious
Deadpool was rather unexpected to me. I had no spend much time reading any of the original comics but I do appreciate a decent superhero movie from time to time. I laughed nearly nonstop. The humor is rather dark and self deprecating but I enjoy that humor.

Never boring, either there are intense action scenes or they are cracking jokes. Absolutely worth a watch, it's close to perfect.

Switch version is the best one yet
Musical stages are an absolute treat
Lack of new content is a bit disappointing (0 more)
Rayman Legends is a masterful platformer that excels in almost every way. It’s stunningly crafted levels, adorable visuals and excellent music all leave a deep, lasting impression.

There is talk of a remake/reboot of one of my all-time favorite movies, The Last Starfighter. The original writer had held the rights for a long time I guess and even said no to Steven Spielberg at one point.

Now it sounds like it might happen from the writer of Rogue One. They are messing with my childhood here, so not sure how I feel about it.

Good selection of series and films. (2 more)
Good for original shows.
Good for keeping up to date on the latest releases.
Doesn't always have the full film series which can make it hard to watch some things. (2 more)
Doesn't have enough of an anime section for me, needs to add more.
A series doesn't always have a trailer which means you sometimes have to watch it to find out you don't like it and feel like it's a waste of time.

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.

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.
