The footage is brutal and often hard to watch (the executions are horrifying and the indoctrination of children is plain sinister). The film excels at portraying the danger the reporters face and the value of the information they get out of the country.
Critic- Jorge Ignacio Castillo
Original Score: 4 out of 5

I am only putting my Condense Review.
I asked the author to review is book. For I do enjoy Children books even at my age. I will tell you that it a quick read and a great read. I understood the concept of it and it almost had my eyes in tears. I said almost at the end of the book. It is heartfelt. I do really believe this.

1979 | Drama
An ok film made slightly more exceptional due to the performances of the leading actors. I still don't believe it was Oscar material though but maybe in the 70's it was deemed more hard-hitting as it was virtually unheard of that mothers just upped and left their children behind? I have no facts to back that up it's just conjecture. I can't say the film is particularly memorable though.

We have had Netflix for a few years and everyone from my children ages 2 and 6 as well as myself and my partner love it. There is always something to watch from Peppa Pig to Homeland. They have programmes that I haven’t watched for years and love to dip into again and again as well as new original content.

OK Here is my crew. Lucy (brown), Lily (white) and Luigi (black). They are the loves of my life. I spend so much time with them on walks (while Pokemoning), lounging and sleeping (of course).

They are a constant source of entertainment and love for me.

Hard to pick just a few photos when my phone has hundreds (and none of my human children)

Can't wait to see yours!

King is the master of phantasmagorical horror and his sales verify his number one place amongst authors of the genre. This is the story of a group of youngsters who each have an encounter with Pennywise the Clown, an evil, malevolent being that feeds on the fears of children. Their friendship pact brings them together thirty years later to confront their demons and end their battle with ‘IT’. A great read.

Really good film, a great family movie
I recently went to see the spiderman movie and it was an incredibly good film. This film is suitable for all ages although it does get a little sad in places so if your children get upset easily I'd probably give it a miss. The soundtrack is really good. Would definitely recommend this to anyone whose interest in superhero films.
  
Stranger Things
Stranger Things
2016 | Sci-Fi
I find the show extraordinarily original. The storyline is suspenseful and keeps you on your toes. The acting is superb, especially for the number of young children staring in it. I've always been a pretty big fan of the horror genre and find that each episode, especially getting into season 2, got more and more terrifying and violent. I can't wait to see where the show goes next.
  
Cargo (2017)
Cargo (2017)
2017 | Drama, Horror, Thriller
The story begins with a couple and their baby trying to survive in a post apocalyptic world. The father is left injured and in search of someone to care for his baby after he's gone. A deeply emotional story about the lengths a parent will go to to protect their children. Detailing the horrors of not only monsters but the people who are just as bad, if not worse.

Didn't keep the attention of two very young kids (0 more)
I can remember watching Barney when I was little but this movie was one that even I did not like much. I tried watching it with my own children here recently and found that they didn't like it either. I am not sure why but unlike the tv show this movie just can't seem to hold their attention.
