“Borne” is a work that exemplifies the notion of pick-and-choose literature; there are elements of science fiction and fantasy of course, but also flavors of thriller and love story and coming of age.
Critic- Allen Adams
Original Score- 5 out of 5

Atomic Blonde  (2017)
Atomic Blonde (2017)
2017 | Action, Mystery, Thriller
Leitch and Theron turn in a serviceable thriller with killer action sequences. At the very least Atomic Blonde can be called the best DTV action film ever made. A title that really isn’t too shabby at all.
Critic- Adrian Torres
Original Score: 70 out of 100

This is the 2nd book in Baldacci's Camel Club series. Just like the 1st it was a fast paced thriller. This time it involved a casino owner, con men, & a defense contractor. Not to mention the Library of Congress, book restoreres & librarians. Oliver Stone is on his game again, as is Baldacci. Great read!

A decent action/thriller with a few twists. You know you are always going to get a good performance out of Washington. Maybe it could have done with a bit more action, it did seem to slow down quite a bit in parts. Overall though a good entertaining film if not anything new or groundbreaking.

A great film that really draws you in and holds your attention all the way through. It has a strong cast, great location and of course awesome director. A very good thriller with a twist most should work out before the end, but it's still fun seeing it all unveil. Go see it!

This is an excellent start to one of my favorite series. It starts out much like any other myster / thriller, but it doesn't take long to realize that there's something not human creeping around the museum at night. Loved the museum setting and the science used to figure things out, however unrealistic it may be.

Diamonds are a girl’s best friends’ best friend. Ocean’s 8 (2018) #Review
Sisters are doing it for themselves, specifically Danny Ocean’s sister Debbie (Sandra Bullock), in this affably slick but lightweight heist thriller, the fourth in the modern ‘Ocean’ series and the first not to be directed by Steven Soderbergh...

A pretty good horror/thriller as some friends get trapped on a remote island with a pack of wild rabid type dogs after them. Not scary or gory but pretty good overall. If you want more blood and guts try the very bloody Wilderness, where I think they got the idea for this from!

A decent thriller along the lines of one group messing with the wrong person... And really wishing they hadn't. Been done a fair bit better a few times since this came out. Once the chaos starts though it's all a bit predictable.
One for those who like their thrillers bloody.
