Game Of Thrones  - Season 5
Game Of Thrones - Season 5
2015 | Sci-Fi
Every episode is loaded with shocking events. This season doesn’t feel like much happens for the first six episodes or so. The last three episodes kicked it up, but I wish that the action and shocking events had been spread out a bit more.
Critic- JP Roscoe
Original Score: 8.5 out of 10

I am giving a slightly generous three star rating because the more poignant and heartfelt beats of the film are the ones that truly won my heart. These are the elements in movies this year that are celebrating the hearts and strength of women everywhere.

A wonderful adaptation.
The series is filled with with the same magic as the source material. You have a loveable cast that deal with real issues in relatable way. My only issues are with the last three or so episodes which is why the review gets an 8 out of 10.

Three Seasons of a Good Premise
This fish-out-of-water adventure buddy cop dramedy was an amazing show for its time. Paul Gross is note-perfect as the seemingly naĂŻeve Mountie in Chicago, and the soundtrack stands the test of time as a throwback to a pre-9-11 world.

After?
As someone who read the After series, I feel like the movie could've been better. Scenes moved through too quick and one of the main characters Hardin Scott was portrayed as a nice, kind guy in the movie. Overall I feel like After would be better as a Netflix series which would comprise of three seasons, one for each book.

I am so happy that there is finally a story arc about these girls. I feel that the females from Batman get no attention at all, so it was refreshing. The story is nothing to complicated and everything you would expect, but I still enjoyed reading it. It was nice to get close and person with the three and learn more about them.

There's no doubt that there's been a recent high level of hype around this game. To be frank, it went completely under my radar, and I didn't know it even existed until very recently. Nonetheless, I was sold almost immediately. Here is my review after three plays.

This novella collection contains three Christmas themed mysteries starring the author's regular series characters. As a fan of the first two, I loved their stories. Leslie's left me a little cold, but I do intend to give her series a try soon.

When a mysterious unseen foe kidnaps a cat and then one of the twins, the three Grace kids start to discover the strange secret of their new home. A strong plot and good character development kept me turning the pages of this novella.
