A few good moments.
This was the fourth Star Wars movie, but the first in the storyline and you can see why they didn't bother starting off with this one as it's dull generally and a drag to watch. The story fails to encapsulate you and it falls way short in entertainment. (1 more)
I watched this when it first came out and I never wanted to watch it since!
The fourth film.......erm!

Not bad
Not too bad. Felt kind of like a teen x-men story. The acting was decent and the cinematography and effects were pretty cool. Hard to say it's "great" as these types of movies are done a lot(people with powers). This was a decent take on the subject matter, though. It's also safe for the kids to watch with you on family movie night. Plenty of entertainment. Worth a watch!

Good One
This sci-fi thriller was captivating. The acting and cinematography were great. The storyline played out beautifully with a few little twists and turns. An interesting take on a technological apocalypse. Id have liked to have seen a slightly different ending, but I get it. This one is a very thought provoking movie. Nothing the kids can't watch(though they may not understand it all). Overall a great movie. Really worth a watch!

I never get tired of watching this movie. You just need to hear the first four notes of the score and you know what was going to happen.

Not usually a fan of war films but...
This was amazing, I couldn't take my eyes off the screen for the entire film. It was such a good build up with so much suspense and action involved. The cast were brilliant, one of the only reasons I agreed to watch it in the first place! But I couldn't fault this film at all. I really enjoyed it and so worth a watch.

Slow burner
Found this film on Netflix, not sure what I was expecting but it was more than what the film had to offer. It seemed to me to be a very slow burner, while the story was good I think things could have been a bit deeper with a bit more story. I'm not sure, it was worth a watch and the ending was tough to watch. But not what I expected.

Many free (with subscription) titles
Amazon has lots of exclusive titles. Not only can you watch lots for free with your Prime subscription, but there are even MORE titles available to purchase or rent. My family frequently uses the "no rush shipping" credits to watch newly released movies. By combining the two benefits, there really isn't a need for any other subscriptions.

The ONLY thing that made me feel some resemblance to liking this book, was the fact that Sunny was great in the book. That was the only thing. There is nothing else.

So 3 more books. There really shouldn't be 3 more books.

This one kinda just passed by. It was just a solid eh. Many, many surrealism sprinkles atop this one. The characters develop but don't actually, because they act the same in the next book.

Oh lord, there are still 6 more of these.

About to start something that I think is a tad idiotic .. Have you ever heard of the app TubiTv??? Well, basically its a free streaming app built into my Sony BluRay player. And I'm going to watch and review all the horror films in it... There's 700# horror films on it... So it may take me some time. Im going to try and watch 2 a day.
I started last night with the classic "Zombeavers".
