They try to make you sympathize with Missy
Missy does some...illegal things to David Spade that would get her sent to prison
It's almost like "Just Go With It" but worse if that's even possible
The Wrong Everything
Wow this was bad. Probably the worst Happy Madison movie I've seen and that's saying a lot. The plot itself is pretty mediocre and harmless. Most of the frustration comes from Missy's character. This character single handedly ruined the movie. I don't blame Lauren Lapkus and think she did a decent job acting wise. Missy was written to be such an unlikeable character though. I understand that's what was intended but they take it way too far. This might be free on Netflix but it's not worth the time.

Slightly ruined by the final trailer...
I'm so frustrated that this film has been spoilt by the decision to release the final trailer that pretty much showed the entire film. And not only that, this trailer was shown ahead of Infinity War for the whole world to see. Genius...

This is the main problem with this film. I think parts of it would be fairly predictable anyway, but this trailer has ruined main parts of the film that were never shown in the original trailers. That said, I do feel like some of this is a little cliched and obvious (are they really that naive they can't spot a smarmy bad guy?). But despite all this, I actually still enjoyed watching it.

There are some great scenes in this with the dinosaurs, and had they not gone for a 12A rating, they could've been truly terrifying. This also nearly made me cry on more than one occasion, and it's not often you can say that about a dinosaur film! The ending itself though was entirely unexpected and I'm glad at least they didn't spoil this in the trailer, I'm interested to see where they're going to go with this next. The only thing that confused me was the subplot around Lockwood's granddaughter, there didn't seem to be a massive point to it really even at the end. And was I the only person to see the similarities with Lost World?

If it hadn't been for the trailer, I probably would've rated this slightly higher as I actually found it pretty enjoyable.

Does anyone else hope that they bring back the original trio (Grant, Malcolm and Sattler) for the next film? I'd kill to see that.

An Elizabethan novel without royals as the main characters.
Recently, I haven't wanted to read any historical fiction novels. I feel like recently, a lot of them are either focused on royals, or on WWII. Harper Collins sent one of their promo emails at the beginning of this month, and after reading the description, I had to have it.
I really liked the main character, Mallory, made some dumb decisions, like everyone, but it was nice to see that she legitimately learned from her mistakes.
After Mallory ruined her reputation, her father seeks out the Spymaster of Elizabethan England, Sir Francis Walsingham, to give her a job. She becomes a spy, seeking out Catholics. Again, I was thankful that the Queen only appeared in person once.

Harper Collins totally got me on this one, and I was glad to read it.
