Lumos (380 KP) rated Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe in Books
Feb 16, 2018
This was such a sweet book. I couldn't put it down. I loved traveling with Ari and Dante as they discovered all the mysteries (good and bad) that life has to offer. This author did a wonderful job of letting readers fall in love with the characters at their own pace rather than shoving them in their faces with an obvious "you must like these characters".

Probably the best film of its type. I have seen a few films that were based around avoiding a huge Croc in perilous circumstances. Some had really bad effects like Crocodile, or just plain cheesey like Lake Placid 2, Blood Surf. This was more like another film called Black water. I found this more interesting though and the Crocodile looks more believable. Worth checking out.

So bad it's good!
Slither is one of those movies that i always forget about but when I finally rewatch it I enjoy it just as much as the first time.
It's over the top and gorey and a lot of over acting at it is freaking wonderful.
Plus to top it off i am always a sucker for a horror movie that uses practical effects.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2336 KP) rated The Bad Beat (Burn Notice #5) in Books

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.
Meg Dean (138 KP) rated Pacific Rim: The Official Movie Novelization in Books

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!

Dean (6927 KP) rated Wrong Turn 3: Left for Dead (2009) in Movies

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.
