Well written with no trace of sparkly vampires, I'm sold. Kidding, it's a whole different genre.

This spy thriller was worth the read.

The characters were memorable and well developed.

The plot was solid and no holes presented themselves.

The story was well executed and it provided a nice escape.

A good film, with some good acting talent. A tale of 2 people that meet and start an affiar to escape their normal everyday lives. Although the sub plot of a child abuser being released back into their community didn't really fit in with the rest of the film.

"In the early sixties, young Tom Courtenay knows he’s got to leave soul-killing Yorkshire and escape to London, where it’s all about to happen. Awesome Julie Christie tries to help, but can Tom get it together?"

Escape from space
A fresh take on an old story.

A renegade CIA agent, the distant future and a corrupt government.

After being betrayed by his own government and sentenced to 30 years in cryogenic chamber 50 miles outside the earths atmosphere, our Agent is offered a way out...a suicide mission to the space prison and rescue the presidents daughter from a criminal rebellion that have taken control of the prison.

This to me is a 3rd part to kurt Russell's escape from series and I highly recommend it to any fans of them.

Great FX, great story, brilliant acting and some edgey twists.
