Erika (17788 KP) rated Dracula Untold (2014) in Movies
Jul 1, 2018
When I first saw the previews for this movie, I was sold. I like different takes on Dracula, and I thought the backstory they built was really cool. I was kind of sad when it didn't do well, and it'll probably never get a sequel. I loved Luke Evans as Dracula, and if Universal had decided not to can Dark Universe, I'd have hoped they'd have opted to bring him back.

Wow
Not your typical exorcism movie. The acting and cinematography were phenomenal. The storyline unfolded beautifully and intensely in this supernatural thriller. The twists were a bit predictable and the end, of course, left it open for a sequel, but none of that took away from the entertainment value. If you enjoy possession stories you'll enjoy this one. It approaches possession and exorcism from a very interesting perspective/angle. REALLY worth a watch!

It could have been so much better
When I watched the first installment of the Divergent series I thought wow this is awesome. Then Insurgent came and it was victim to the sequel curse. When i saw Allegent was coming out I thought for sure they must have learned their lesson.
Nope.
A shame because the actors are fab but their talent is wasted in this.
Wouldn't recommend wasting time watching this.

Deborah (162 KP) rated Jane Austen Out of the Blue in Books
Dec 21, 2018
Even now I've finished it, I'm not entirely sure what to make of this one. It's a sequel of sorts to Sanditon, but includes other Austen characters and even the shade of the author herself, following her death. Nothing happens as you might expect and there's not really a very strong narrative drive through it. On one level I think it serves as a disection of the novel as a literary form. Strange.
JUMPCUT ONLINE (77 KP) rated The Secret Life of Pets 2 (2019) in Movies
Jun 30, 2019
It’s a strong sequel and, at times, even better than the original thanks to the welcome variety in story and a certain miser Ford and his Raiders of the Lost Bark. Will we get a third? Probably not, but for a welcome celebration of these box-office smashing pets and what they bring for their target audience, it's harmless fun.

I loved the book, but the movie was disappointing.
I hated the fact that they used an amazing book and its plot, to create a 2-hour worth of advertisement for all video games analogy. If you are in the gaming industry and want to advertise your product, get in touch with the producer, because they might make a sequel.

David McK (3372 KP) rated The Legend of Zorro (2005) in Movies
Feb 6, 2021
Antonio Banderas' second outing as the masked Mexican vigilante Zorro (well, third if you count Puss in Boots from 'Shrek 2!'), in a sequel that lacks the strong theme of revenge that runs through the earlier outing.
I also have to say, I found myself flinching when the film introduced Zorro's kid as a main character - never a good sign - although, thankfully, that subplot never overtakes the main strand of the story.

Tom Turner (388 KP) rated The High Lord (Black Magician Trilogy, #3) in Books

I wish you could give a half start on Goodreads, as I don't feel this book is perfect. My main criticism is on the romance side, there were a number of these in this book, and a felt while it wasn't quite instalove, it was close by. But apart from that this book was definitely the best in the trilogy. I'll be interested to read the sequel trilogy to see if it further improves

Ok
While this one was a little better than the first one, it was still just ok. Thse acting was good. The cinematography was better than before and the storyline was similar, though played out a little better. The ending was a little weak(though typical of Hollywood). Leaving things open for a sequel, of course. If you enjoyed the first one you'll enjoy this one. It's entertaining enough. Worth a watch.
