LeftSideCut (3778 KP) rated Honey Boy (2019) in Movies
Nov 17, 2020
Written by Shia LaBeouf and based on parts of his childhood and his relationship with his father, Honey Boy is brimming with raw emotion. It flicks from heartwarming to traumatic with a finger snap, and captures the turbulence of this haphazard upbringing in a hugely effective manner.
LaBeouf also stars, and takes on the role of his father, so this movie is also a sort of therapy, splayed out right in front of us. It feels personal.
The rest of the cast are fantastic - Noah Jupe, Lucas Hedges, and FKA Twigs in particular - Everyone just knocks it out the park.
Honey Boy also boasts a multitude of beautiful shots. Alma Har'el has done a wonderful job of bringing this story to fruition.
Shia LaBeouf has really come into his own in recent years, and between this and The Peanut Butter Falcon, he is.further proving why he is one the best acting talents around at the moment. Wonderful stuff!
Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2196 KP) rated Murder on the Beach in Books
May 28, 2021
Each story in this collection averaged 40 minutes for me to read, so there is plenty of content in the book. While some of the authors have written about their series sleuths, all of the stories can be read on their own, which was good because I was only familiar with one set of characters before I started the collection. All the stories feature strong characters and fun mysteries in addition to the variety of beach settings. Whether you take this book along to read at the beach or read it at home while dreaming of being at the beach, you’ll enjoy it.
