An interesting Sci-fi film
A very well made film with some great actors. It's interesting but the way the story pans out spoiled it for me and made it quite predictable. Seemed a lot like @2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) for my liking as well.

Amy Adams performs well on the whole - very well cast (2 more)
Some intelligent plot moves and on the whole the premise feels relatively original
Keeps you watching.
Feels a little too moralistic and utopian-wannabe in parts. (2 more)
Some plot holes, especially around the romance angle
Probably need a new spaceship designer!
Interesting premise, but cheesy in places

Ultimately, XCOM 2: War of the Chosen buries even the most tactically-sound gamer under a mountain of entertaining challenges and adds not only several hours of content to play through, but well-neigh infinite replayability as well

This is the second book I read by Kris Bryant. The first was [Jolt]. [Breakthrough] was another well written and well developed romance. I love how Kennedy is both self assured and incredibly akward. The easy banter between the two women as they become friends and more was spot on. I hope to read more books by Bryant.

I wasn't expecting much out of this film. But, I was pleasantly surprised. It was well-paced and suspenseful. Lola Kirke was great as Jill, the assistant. The score fit the film well, and it was very Los Angeles. It was sleek, and the direction was perfect for the film. I'm so glad I caught the film in theaters.

The End is a well paced zombie book. The main characters of Cate and Melody are fairly developed and fit well with the plot. I would like to find out what happens to the characters so I really would like to see a sequel.. I think the characters, especially Cate, can be developed more in future books.

Great read, I was hooked early on. I couldn't put it down, great plot and the characters were well rounded. The heroines are awesome and the male counterparts go well together. I love that they can communicate telepathically, I think Audrey and the little dragon a cute add in. I can't wait for the next book, The Awakening.
  
This was a really fast, good read for me! The characters were well developed, and the plot line kept me hooked until I reached the end. This is definitely worthy of 4 stars and two thumbs up to the author for creating a book that is sure to be a hit with all romance lovers! Well done!
