MissCagey (2652 KP) rated The Paperboy (2012) in Movies
Dec 4, 2017
Can you really know someone after writing a few letters? This was an interesting film based on a true story of a woman who believed she had found her true love. the fact he was in prison for murder did not faze her and she was determined to have him released. She contacts two writers to investigate his case to try and get him freed. I really wanted to find out whether he was innocent or not and the twists and turns keep you gripped throughout. Very compelling.
Book Divas (227 KP) rated Water Under the Bridge (The Water Trilogy #1) in Books
Dec 12, 2017
This author's unique and creative writing style took me a few chapters to get use to it and in to it as it is narrated in first person but once I fell in there, I was completely held captive by the story line and the characters. This is not your typical, everyday romance, and this was honestly an intriguing and thrilling read.

Shaun Collins (3 KP) rated Lethbridge-Stewart: Times Squared (#8) in Books
Jan 12, 2018
Another enthralling entry into the Lethbridge-Stewart line, once the action starts it doesn't let up. Cross exhibits a nice handle on writing action scenes and at times channels Stephen King with creepy images of rats surging up from flooded New York subway lines. The plot is a little standard for what we've come to expect from the Great Intelligence, but it's still handled well. Our band of heroes all have moments of awesome, and it's an all-around solid book. Full (spoiler filled) reviews available at www.travelingthevortex.com
Shaun Collins (3 KP) rated Doctor Who: The Eleventh Doctor, Volume 5: The One in Books
Jan 12, 2018
Things have plateaued a bit in this second volume of the Eleventh Doctor series 2 comics. The yarn is still enjoyable, and the writing still compelling, but whereas the first five issues really kickstarted things, this middle section suffers from simply being the middle section. The first two are great, the third is good, the last two seem like padding to stretch the story out for the full season. Here's hoping the resolution to come is as good as the set up was, in which case I may have to edit my ranking...
Bird (1704 KP) rated Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975) in Movies
May 4, 2017
You can watch it 20 times (I have) and still find new gems of comedy genius (5 more)
The writing, quite unsurprisingly, is brutally intelligent
It manages to tickle your ribs at every opportunity
If you don't normally like Python, you can just remember bits of dialogue and sound like the master of wit in front of your friends.
Roger the shrubber, the Black Knight, coconuts, French insults and African Swallows. It's all in there!
Will distort your view of Arthurian legend forever
Makes Ben Hur Look Like An Epic!

as with season 1 - This show doesn't need a long review - it's too perfect. Too funny. Too clever. the chemistry between James Spader and William Shatner as Alan and Denny respectively draws you in and makes you wish they were your buddies, that you could hang out with them on the penthouse office balcony, talking philosophically about life with a cigar in one hand and a fine scotch whiskey in the other. The cast is superb and the writing brilliant...Thank you David E Kelly et al.
