Matt Purser (3 KP) rated Mary Poppins Returns (2018) in Movies

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

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.

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!

Lilyn G - Sci-Fi & Scary (91 KP) rated Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp in Apps
Feb 3, 2018
I liked it, but I didn't love it.
I had had the original Animal Crossing game once upon a time, and vaguely remembered liking it, so I decided to give this one a try. Pocket Camp was fun for a while, but very swiftly settled into monotonous and just couldn't keep my attention. There's only so far cute characters and arranging your campsite can carry you before you start needing a little bit of something else going on.

Wide variety to choose from
Netflix originals
Netflix has saved me from boredom.
I have had Netflix for quite a while and wouldn't change to another provider.
I love their original shows and films and would pay just to watch Netflix originals.
It has saved me from many nights of boredom and I practically lived off Netflix when I was too ill to work.

Interactive on DVD
Innovative Horror Film
A great little known Horror. It's slow to start but bare with it, very violent and will make you jump. A bit like a Big Brother show with a twist. It's a very good film and interactive on DVD. Something very innovative in that you can change camera angles for some scenes and change the audio channel to hear a different feed. Makes you feel like an online watcher.
Cynthia Armistead (17 KP) rated Demon Seed (Good Will Ghost Hunting, #1) in Books
Mar 1, 2018
Not the first time I've encountered this take ("demons" are just powerful beings in charge of a particular reality who have been labeled "evil" by beings from a competing reality whose PR has fared better in modern times) but I can't remember the last time it was pushed quite this heavily. I would probably advise most Christians, particularly Baptists, to give this one a pass.
Don't worry, you aren't exactly missing any deathless prose or original plotting, anyway.

Sarah Chapman (7 KP) rated Strangers: Prey at Night (2018) in Movies
Mar 10, 2018
At many points this movie feels like a Lifetime original movie. The characters consistently make decisions that are beyond stupid, stupidity that can't be reasoned away by the "in-the-moment" fear of the situation. It's like they have no sense of self preservation. They run around screaming out for others when there are bad guys actively looking for them, and don't shoot the person that is trying to kill them when they have them at gunpoint.
