Dean (6926 KP) rated Jonah Hex (2010) in Movies
Feb 17, 2018
Hmm not heard of the character before? This just seemed like a comic book western for me with a quirky supernatural element. It has a good cast and while not being a bad film, it does feel like there is something missing? It could have been a lot better. It's very short and simple and has some ok action scenes, that's about it.

A very enjoyable action film with some great SFX and a brill car chase. You really need to switch your brain off though as it is all very unbelievable. Some might see it as a Matrix wannabe, no bad thing, but it's not up to those levels. Still a good film and worth watching if you like cool, action films

A super sexy read that I enjoyed, I never read any of the previous books in the series and it didn't detract from the story. Only thing I would say is 'the bad guy' in the book was a bit of a wash out and ended up being a minor irritation. I thought he would have been more of a problem to Dena.

Well this sequel of sorts sunk without a trace. A DVD release featuring a fairly well known cast. It doesn't really have any links to the first film other than the plot is similar. Set in Hawaii as some divers are hired for more than just treasure hunting. Not bad but nothing great either, shame as I loved the first film.

A run of the mill low budget straight to DVD sequel. Considering the budget it isn't really bad but it's not good either. It borrows a lot of ideas from other films bit of a mix of Aliens, The Thing, Body snatchers. For a film that has a made for TV feel about it could have been a lot worse.

Gisell Middleton (189 KP) rated Anatomy of a Scandal in Books
Jul 12, 2018
This debut is slow and somewhat predictable. The only “twist” takes place halfway through the novel and doesn’t really make up for the sluggish pace of the story. It delves somewhat superficially into the lives and thoughts of the characters but not enough to really make us invested in them. It is not a bad novel but I had hoped for better.

My absolute favourite series at the moment! Despite the dystopian setting it is scary how real the problems portrayed can seem and how possible the world feels! This is the only time I will probably ever say this but I much prefer the TV series than the book, not to say it’s a bad book, but that the show is that’s good!
