Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2165 KP) rated The Bad Beat (Burn Notice #5) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
What Sam and Michael think is a simple job of helping out a guy hounded by loan sharks becomes much more complex when they find Russian mobsters are also after the guy. While the climax felt weak, overall the book was still good.

This is one of the saddest films I have ever seen. You can't help but like Randy and you keep rooting for him hoping his bad luck will change. It seems to for a short while which makes it all the harder when it goes downhill again. It is slow but that allows the film to "breathe" somewhat and I liked that it was not rushed.

I liked the book. It added some much needed back-story to a good movie.
What I don't understand is everyone complaining about the ending. I re-watched the movie right after I finished the book, just to see if I missed something...it ended just the same!
So...either I got a bad edition of the book...or I am just missing something glaringly obvious!

Gory, bloody mess
I wouldn't say this is a bad movie, but it focuses a lot more on the gore factor than anything else. While the lead acting to me was quite impressive, there was a lot of unanswered questions and I would have liked a bit more of a back story to it. But it was a decent film as long as you like blood!

Avoid!
Hmm Left on the shelf would be a better sub title. A very weak low budget entry in the series. No where near as good as the first and the 2nd wasn't bad for a straight to DVD sequel. It has a fair amount of gore, a couple of inventive kills and that's about it? Turn the other way and find a better slasher film.

A good cop drama about a family in the force, thrown into an awkward position when a case exposes some dirty cops from their precinct. A very enjoyable film, with a well assembled cast. Might be a little confusing at the start as to who is bad and who isn't though. It doesn't have a great deal of action but it's still a good story well told.

Even Chris Hansen wouldn't want to catch The Predator (2018) #Review
The Predator franchise hasn’t had as much bad luck as its studio stablemate the Alien. Sure they both clashed in a pair of adequate/ terrible movies but at least our favourite extra-terrestrial trophy hunter hasn’t appeared in anything as aggressively stupid as “Alien: Covenant”...until now, that is...

I really enjoyed this book. As a lover of fairy tales and mythology, it was the premise of the main character being a half Native American coyote shifter that interested me the most. Mercy being an out of the ordinary heroine having a background in history and being mechanic was something of plus. This little coyote has what it takes to run with the big bad wolves.

Ok, this nightmare cross between "Bloody Mary" and "Jumanji" was an interesting concept, I'll give it that. It played out rather boring and predictablr though. The acting wasn't too bad. The cinematography was a bit weak and the monster might have been better if he didn't speak. Overall this movie was only mildly entertaining. Something to throw on if you're bored. Otherwise, not really worth a watch.
