It really does affect you (especially if you have a small child!) (2 more)
The 'dilemma' is plausible, if very frustrating to watch
The mechanics of the dilemma play out in a way that has you utterly engaged
Plot holes all over the place, and seemingly irrelevant scenes (3 more)
The terrible decision making of the lead role and lack of urgency at times is unrealistic
Is that a Land Rover Discovery in disguise?
This movie will stress you out!
Utterly desperate and stressful to watch, although strangely compelling

quite predictable
A good super hero movie, but not too gripping
I love DC, which unfortunately makes this movie a difficult one to watch. It was a nice movie, but did not give the character any real justice. The story is not well formed, and sort of seem like it was just thrown together. Overall it is a fun movie to watch, but probably best to have it as a movie in the background to enjoy it.

Contains spoilers, click to show
Wanted to watch this for a while and glad I had it on my to watch list, also glad I watched it in the daylight. It is more of a suspense horror and there isn't too much gore (it is only rated 15). You do guess that the daughter is involved quite early on but she does give a good performance in trying to convince you otherwise. Quite creepy and it will make me think twice if I see a teacup with a teaspoon in it.

Entertaining
While searching through a list of "horror" movies to watch I came upon this interesting title. It turned out better than expected. Plenty of creepy imagery and characters it was quite entertaining. With the old school feel of it the cinematography and acting were very well done. The story- while a little predictable- proved to flow smoothly without being cumbersome or difficult to keep up with and entertained quite thoroughly. If you're into old style "ghostly" thrillers you will enjoy this one. Worth a watch!

No development
Standard Dwayne Movie
Some time has passed since I watched this movie but I can remember that I enjoyed it but also didn't.
It is a standard Dwayne Johnson movie, full of action but lacks depth to the story and characters.
Most of the plot you can see coming a mile away but if you want a simple easy to watch movie for a night on the sofa then I would recommend this.

Must watch mockumentary
I've probably seen Best in Show a dozen times or more my parents used to watch it non-stop when I was younger and now that I'm older I guess I still can't get enough of it.
It really is one of the best mockumentaries out there it's absolutely hilarious the plot is simple but amazing the cast is perfect each character is just so outrageous on their own that when you put them together it really just is Best in Show.

More arty than your typical roman storyline (1 more)
Interesting view of early Britain from the romans perspective
Easy storyline, strong themes of family honour and loyalty.
Thought this would be quite a dull story but turned out to be quite interesting. Its quite a relaxed watch and toes the line between the romans and the early britons perspective of history.
Has strong themes of family honour and loyalty. A decent film but not one I would probably watch again.

I created a video explaining my slow decent into hating this series, book by book, for your viewing pleasure:
I kinda liked how this one ended. A horribly nice death for a character who was kinda silly and pointless anyway. Their whole arc felt jarring, at even at the end, when we know their single character trait they've been given, it felt really strange for the character to act the way they did.
Huuuuuuuh... 4 more books...

This is the book that broke the camels back. I started to hate this series from here on. If book 5 got your hopes up for something special, prepare for them to be ground into the mud. It's the same damn book. They all are. He just changes the amount of surrealism sprinkles he uses for each book.
