Lots of action

Predictable in places
Binge worthy
Based over a series of 8 episodes, the drama and action packed show follows a young girl called Hanna. Raised in the woods with no outside influences, the world is suddenly thrust upon her when she becomes overly curious and breaks the rules! Expect guns, fight scenes, and teenage temper tantrums. I thought the casting was great, the dialect was so so and some parts slightly predictable. Worth a watch

For a straight to DVD film this is actually a pretty good thriller. Gere and Claire Danes give good performances about a tough subject matter. They monitor sex offenders in the community, when a teenage girl is kidnapped in the area their suspicions are raised. A bit slow at the start but the second half of the film is good cat and mouse stuff. Don't expect much of Avril Lavigne in this though, a one scene cameo is all you get from her in this.

Couple goals
Drew Barrymore and Timothy Olyphant are by far one of the best couples on tv. Joel (Olyphant) is a supportive husband to his wife that has turned into the ‘undead’ . They try to keep her need to feed ( on humans) under control with the help of their very judgey teenage daughter and the super funny, quirky boy next door. The first few shows are hard to watch but once you get past the fact that Sheila (Barrymore) is eating people it gets really good.

Hmmm really didn't get the hype about this film. It's just plain odd and weird without being that entertaining. A very over protective father keeps his 3 teenage children within the compound of the family home, knowing nothing of the outside world. They have become brainwashed by their parents into an odd existence. A few odd scenes and taboo sex scenes as well make it strange viewing at times. It gets a bit interesting towards the end, but it's a long slow watch to get there.

Pure 80s!
Two teenagers become local celebrities after an incident ends badly resulting in a shooting. The two flee the scene as they don't know what to do, but become famous in the process.
Kind of an 80s teenage version of "Thelma and Louise", this movie is highlighted by Supergirl, Helen Slater and Christian Slater (no relation) and their rambunctious attitudes. Once Billie Jean becomes famous and cuts her hair, everyone wants to be like her.
Will justice be served? Only one way to find out!

Easy reading
Who doesn't want to have a literary adventure?!
The authors humorous character is revealed within this book. Following a teenage girl the book sets up for those to follow. I began reading this when i was 12 years old and 8 years later i purchased the latest book in the series. The easy to read plot line grasps its readers and draws them into another world within the one we know. It certainly brings adventure and excitement into real life.

A game set 20 years into the zombie apocalypse. You play as Joel, an old time survivor who is given the task of taking Ellie, a seemingly normal teenage girl, across the US. With a great script, some beautiful animation and scenery and a journey showcasing many different sides of a post-apocalyptic world, you get to decide yourself whether zombies or humans make up the real threat.
