An emotional rollercoaster of a movie that I watch at least once a year.
It's a story told with such measured elegance that you cannot help but get caught up in Andy's prolonged pain and suffering, then uplifting euphoria when he finally orchestrates the ultimate revenge upon his cruel captors, I do not have enough space in this review to truly do this gargantuan movie justice.

Still working my way around this app which I use on my computer. I tend to use most apps on my computer rather than my phone as they take up so much space. A lot of stuff I haven't seen yet in the film section. Book section is great, music wise a lot of bands I have not heard of. All in all a good app though

You can watch loads of different titles from anime to horror, even if you're out and about and don't have WiFi, you can Pre download them to watch later, like I did when I visited Scotland recently. (0 more)
They have taken off some of the series that I have been watching when I haven't finished then yet, although this is understandable as they only have so much space. (0 more)

I really enjoyed this book and read it in a very short space of time. It was interesting hearing the minutiae of how he performed his heists.

He was very woman obsessed though. It reads very 60's sexist but otherwise a fun read!
