Erika (17789 KP) rated Thoroughbreds (2017) in Movies

Gosh, I wanted this to be so much better than it was. One of the main reasons I wanted to see it was because it was one of Anton Yelchin's last movies. The music was definitely killer, and so was the fashion. Olivia Cook and Anya Taylor-Joy were great together. It was entertaining overall, I just had unrealistic expectations. RIP Anton <3

The women of the Women's Murder Club must come together when seemingly random killings begin to show the target is policemen and their families. There were a couple of plot points that seemed a bit cliche, but I really did enjoy this book.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2627 KP) rated Artifacts (Faye Longchamp, #1) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Missing students and an unexpected skull at a dig sight kick off this archaeology themed mystery series. The characters are good, but there were too many plot threads early on and it felt like it took a while to really come together.

This was exactly like the novel. I am so happy with this graphic novel! The artwork is amazing. The scenes that made me cry in the book were so excellent. I loved the relationships between the characters. Seeing them all together again made my heart hurt, but it was a good kind of hurt. So much love for these books!

Mar 9, 2018
Lady Georgiana has been ask to host a visiting princess. But trouble seems to follow them wherever they go. And that's before the body shows up. This book is part comedy and part mystery and I thought they were mixed together perfectly.

Interesting concept (1 more)
Interesting writing style
Unique
The style this book is written in is so interesting. A mixture of video logs, files, images, and chat logs work together to draw the reader in - as if they were actually reading a file of evidence. Fast paced and dramatic! The emotion of the moment is seen very well through text effects and style.

same humor as the first one (1 more)
keeping all the same characters
Not as good, but still good
If the first one was meta, this movie is ultra meta. Not as good as the first Boondock Saints but still a fantastic film. I really loved the way that they threaded several of the plot lines together. It was truly an enjoyable film.

I feel like this should have been funnier considering who the leads are. Don't get me wrong, Aniston and Sandler are great together, and there are some truly funny moments, but I wanted to be able to laugh more than I actually did. The actual "murder mystery" was just intriguing enough to keep it going. Overall a bit disappointing, but not terrible.

I was pleasantly surprised by this series and hope to see a continuation of it. It was constantly intense and unexpected. Even in the moments of supposed calm, there is a palpable tension in every action taken by the characters. The way it follows the different characters on their journey through the horror and how their stories link together was really interesting.
