Rose (201 KP) rated Get Out (2017) in Movies

Get Out (2017)
Get Out (2017)
2017 | Horror, Thriller
It's daunting to write a review for this movie without giving away any spoilers, but here we go:

I had heard quite a bit of hype regarding this movie and it was well-deserving of it.
Many scenes were eerie without having to try, whether through camera placing/lingering or through catching something off to the side that you weren't quite sure you saw. Especially those oddly silent or dialogue-less scenes that made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.


I definitely recommend if you want to watch something that's a little bit different from what you expect and with a Stepford Wives edge.

This is a good album. It snuckup on me one day during a long drive, and I ended up listening to all of it.
While it does miss a certain WOW factor most of the songs are very good. The sound mostly blends current dance and pop music with a pop sound that reminds me a little more of 90s pop.
Some stand out tracks would be Recovery (which I can't stop listening to) and Top of the World, which is actually a bit off the beaten path when compared to the other songs on the album.
All in all it kept me listening.

To be honest with you not sure whether this is the one I use but the picture does look like it, I have had a Logitech keyboard for my ipad for several years as being a typist I find it so much easier than the onscreen one. It does make the ipad heavier and attaches via a magnet. The only slight snag is now (I have had it for least five years) is that the keys stand up slightly like a computer keyboard and dirt and crumbs have got under the keys and certain ones are now sticking, but they have changed the format and the new one is flatter.

This is the first book by this author that I've read and it definitely wont be the last. This book will keep you reading long into the night. This book can be read as a stand alone, I haven't read any other in this series but I'll definitely be going back to read them. The characters are really well written and you just end up falling in love with them as you read. This is an exciting book to read. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.
Highly recommended

App Rating
Some unique (Netflix Originals) programming, some classic TV shows and movies too. (2 more)
'My List' allows you to save shows and films to watch at a later stage.
Netflix are open to people sharing their accounts with others (within reason)
User interface is poor and sometimes you spend more time trying to find something to watch than you do actually watching something. (2 more)
A lot of the stand-up comedy is aimed at the USA audience which needs to be addressed as quite frankly the majority of them are just not funny!
Not on the same level as Sky when it comes to blockbuster movies.

Max Holman has just been released from prison when he gets the news that his estranged son, a police officer, has been murdered. When the official story doesn't add up, Max begins poking around. But is he in over his head?

Another of Crais' stand alone novels, I found this one rather disappointing. The plot was a little too obvious. And, as a completely personal issue, the language also bothered me. On the other hand, the characters were great and compelled me further into the story.
