Kristina (502 KP) rated The Redemption of Callie & Kayden (The Coincidence, #2) in Books

Dec 7, 2020

Though I'm giving The Redemption of Callie & Kayden 3 stars, I have to confess that it's a weak 3. Honestly, I debated for a long while about whether or not it should actually get a 2.5 rating. I was anxious to read another part of Callie's and Kayden's relationship, to see what awaits them in their lives. For the first half of the book, I was pretty into it, but I felt like things really slowed down around the 60% mark; I began speed reading and only slowing down when it came to the parts I was really looking forward to - which is why I decided to give 3 stars, because though I was slightly bored, I still cared enough to want to find out how everything would end (at least for this book).

Movie Rating

Clumsy, uninspired, and - let's be honest - pointless and redundant remake of the British gangster classic. Stallone is as clumpingly inarticulate as ever as a gangster seeking the truth about his brother's death; various surprisingly good actors are roped in but get virtually nothing to do. For appearance's sake Michael Caine comes back, in the not-exactly-plum role of Cliff Brumby.

The plot is mostly just the same as in the original movie, although the magnificent desolation of north-east England is replaced by somewhere nondescript and American, and bleak nihilism is gone too, as that's not what Stallone's audience wants: instead there's a dull old plot about a man out for redemption. It's all sort of watchable, but it's hard to really think of a reason why you'd want to.
