Erika (17789 KP) rated Making A Murderer - Season 2 in TV
Oct 27, 2018 (Updated Oct 27, 2018)
Well, I was super pumped for the 2nd part of Making a Murderer. But, lightening did not strike twice. Perhaps it was because there was almost always news about what was going on with the cases against Dassey and Avery. The only interesting part was the new theories and evidence in the case. I didn't like that Avery turned against his lawyers, it seemed a bit petty. But, I guess if you're spending life in prison, you'd cycle through blaming everyone around you. This felt like a 10 hour long, not very interesting episode of Dateline. Ok is the best word to describe it.
A gripping read, but domestic violence, child abuse, incest, adultery, suicide, abduction, murder.... it did put you through the wringer a bit!
I felt it wasn't wrapped up as well as it could have been - some things left me feeling unsatisfied. A few inconsistencies - for example a character badly sprains or possibly breaks an ankle. This is a hindrance while it needs to be, but a few hours later it seems to be OK again.
If Olivia knew what she knew about her husband all along, I can't see why she didn't use it to her advantage earlier?
Gripping while it lasted, but I don't think I could read it again.

Andrew Kennedy (199 KP) rated Escape Room (2017) in Movies

Skeet Ulrich
Did you know there is three films called Escape Room?
I have seen two of them, both from 2017 and both very bad.
This particular one is the worst one of the two. Four friends partake of the titular game only to find they are trapped in a life or death situation.
The only notable performances come from Skeet Ulrich as the escape room owner and Sean Young (god knows what she is doing here) as a seller.
The rest of the cast are instantly forgettable and the acting very sub par which isn't helped by a silly plot device.
One to only watch once.

LeftSideCut (3776 KP) rated Fast Five (2011) in Movies
Jun 1, 2021
It's finally happened...I think....I think I...like these movies
All joking aside, Fast Five is a well paced, and well executed action film. The humble street racing elements of the first few movies have been pretty much dropped at this point. There's a bit where Vin Diesel and his crew are taking down a whole army of bad guys with military grade weapons, and I just found myself thinking "how the fuck did we get here" and you know what? I'm not even mad.
Also, Diesel shouting "THIS IS BRAZIL" right in Dwayne Johnson's inexplicably sweaty bald face is next level unintentionally hilarious and I love it.

Anarchy ( Hove Trilogy 2)
By jaymin Eve and Leia Stone
⭐️⭐️⭐️
Did Charlie Bennett ever tell you that vampires are evil spawn? Well they are!
She's had just about enough of them and when the unthinkable happens, she decides it might just be time to use her blood as a weapon against them.
It's time for a little anarchy.
It was a decent read and we found out a lot more about Charlie. I was a little disappointed in parts and I can’t pinpoint what but something was annoying me about the whole situation. But still a few good reveals ready for book 3.

Welcome 2 Jumanji
I’ll keep this short. Jumanji 2 wasn’t needed. It was enjoyable, but not necessary. It had its moments, after they got into the game, and it was surprisingly funny, but it still wasn’t needed.
Look out for the Robin Williams tribute, it’s a blink and you’ll miss kinda thing. Just turn your brain off and enjoy it for what it is, which is more of a Nickelodeon movie than a Jumanji movie. Basically, it’s what I expected “Legends of The Hidden Temple” to be like.
All of that being said, I did enjoy it, so I’m rating it rather high. If you loved the old Jumanji, there’s enough nostalgia that you’ll love this one, but not so much that it shoves it down your throat either.
