It's Grim Up North
Biographical drama about the artist Lowry (he of matchstalk this-and-that fame); based on a stage play and it really does show. Middle-aged clerk Lowry works by day, tends to his clinging, unsympathetic mother in the evenings, and paints at night. Not entirely unlike a variation on Steptoe and Son, only without any jokes.

Well-played, naturally, and well-staged, naturally, but the scenes of the two of them in a small room together, with her crushing his dreams and obsessed with petty social concerns, quickly become repetitive: the brief sequences with Lowry articulating his thoughts on his art, occasionally recreating his paintings, are much more interesting. Watchable but a bit dull; doesn't really do Lowry's art justice.

This will my last review until next Monday- September 2nd. Im taking a little break. So no reviews all of this coming week.

Ready or Not will make you questoning things, the end expectally will make you questioning things. I wont go into spoilers.

The plot: Grace couldn't be happier after she marries the man of her dreams at his family's luxurious estate. There's just one catch -- she must now hide from midnight until dawn while her new in-laws hunt her with guns, crossbows and other weapons.

Its a mixture of clue, the hateful eight, game night, escape room, cube and the saw franchise.

I would wait for it to come out on dvd, their is no rush to see it.

I struggled with this review. This was one of my most anticipated books of the year and I just did not love it as I expected. However, the hype I built up for myself was probably a disservice to the book and in the end plays apart in my disappointment.

Overall, the book was an enjoyable read and I would still recommend it. The middle took a weird turn for me and never seemed to come back from that. I didn't like the ending although it does leave room for drawing your own conclusions. I also believe that some of the characters although your suppose to believe they are resourceful, cunning, smart seemed to believe things that they were told at face value and never investigated further. The writing was definitely able to pull me in and the story was entertaining enough to finish.
