Those of you that love sci-fi reading either know of or should be familiar with Harry Harrison's "Stainless Steel Rat" series.
It's a futuristic Robin Hood style story with the action and intrigue of James Bond with the moral flexibility of Han Solo.
It's amazing that this has never made it to the big screen, seeing as how it has most genres covered: action, mystery, thriller, romance, science, technology, fantasy, sci-fi, politics and family.

It's easy reading, go enjoy the trip.

Thanks for reminding me of that series. I enjoyed it, too. May be time for a reread.

Taron Egerton has made quite a name for himself as the plucky Eggsy in the Kingsman franchise, but this revamp of the Robin Hood story is an absolute turd of a film. After last year’s lifeless King Arthur: Legend of the Sword, the writing really was on the wall for this overblown adventure that spectacularly achieves nothing in its running time. Can you get a refund at the cinema?

Fun, but not for long.
This is a very fun game, featuring throwbacks to the beloved 1990s Robin Williams film, which do bring a certain nostalgia.

The game itself is fun, but not as expected. As a game based on the infamous deadly board game, I'd have expected more of a challenge instead of "move back three spaces", or other generic board game instructions.

A fun game nonetheless, but can only be played a few times before it becomes repetitive.
