Jeremy King (346 KP) rated Batman and Harley Quinn (2017) in Movies

Aug 8, 2019

When i watched this i was stuck on a runway for 1.5hours waiting to take off, so that might influence my rating.

I grew up with the batman cartoon and well this is not your tv cartoon batman. A lot of adult themes going on in here. So you might want to take a peak at it before letting the little ones watch it. It is ment for older teens and adults.

What I like about this is how it is empowering for a female character. Harley Quinn might be a loose cannon but this shows she does not need Batman, Nightwing or the Joker. She is her own stand alone kick ass character and she does not need to be a sidekick.

If you like batman you might want to check it out or leave it but if you are a fan of Harley Quinn i say it is a must to see.

Lauren (4 KP) rated The Murder of Roger Ackroyd (Hercule Poirot #4) in Books

Storyline (1 more)

Suspense

I would rate this book up there alongside 'And then there were none', as one of the best Christie book I've read. The storyline was the classic who-dun-it you would expect from the Author but where a couple of the other books in the stand alone, or Marple Catalogue can fall short towards the end and leave you feeling a little dissatisfied, this shines. It makes it into many '100 best books' or 'books to read before you die' lists and quite rightly so.
If you enjoy the crime/suspense genre and maybe coming to Christie fresh faced and wanting the best she has to offer, then I would recommend this as a great start. It might not be the first in the Poirot collection but you can get away with reading out of order. I'm jealous of everyone coming to this without knowing the plot and who gets to relish the twists and turns that come.
