Suswatibasu (1703 KP) rated Fight Club in Books

I am Jack's aching liver
An absolute classic, with the film being completely faithful to the book. Chuck Palahniuk's writing style is uber-cool, and totally macabre, describing disturbing situations in a nonchalant way. Obviously it's not the same if you know the ending already but either read it or watch it.

Witty Dialogue
Strong support cast
It is intriguing to see how the authorities would use the information they have once the Enigma has been cracked, in this classic ‘race against time’ tale.
The cast was great with the likes of Benedict Cumberbatch, Keira Knightley and Mark Strong amongst other great actors!

Shaun Collins (3 KP) rated Doctor Who: The Zygon Who Fell to Earth in Books
Jan 12, 2018
Another thoroughly enjoyable yarn that puts a fun spin on the classic Zygon tale. Works exceptionally well with the Capaldi 2 parter Zygon Invasion/Zygon Inversion. It also features the closure story ark of Lucie's Auntie Pat, who returns from last seasons Horror of Glam Rock. For a more detailed review, visit www.travelingthevortex.com

This movie still makes me smile, even though it's been kicking around for a long time. (2 more)
It's a harmless, comedy classic, with starring roles from Dan Ackroyd and Eddie Murphy.
Pork bellies!
The contrast of the rich and the poor...who then end up 'Trading Places' in a tale of sculduggery with humour!

One, two Freddy's coming for you....
My favourite of the series and a classic horror film. The 3rd was quite funny and New Nightmare was also very good in a different way, but this is still the best of the bunch.

Chelsea (449 KP) rated 1984 Nineteen Eighty-Four in Books

Classic, amazing, dystopian future story. This book still has a major impact on the world today. It gives you so much to think about. Think. Appreciate that you are allowed to think. I would have rated it higher, but I didn't like the ending. Those who have read it will know why.

This is a good classic game. There are a variety of strategies to play. I always all short in gambling if I should pick up new route cards or not. I usually try to wait until the cards I start with are complete but by then it tends to be too late.
MissCagey (2652 KP) rated Pulp Fiction (1994) in Movies
May 15, 2018
One of the best written films I have ever watched. The dialogue romps along, as does the action and the violence. As a rule I don't like violent films but Tarantino's violence is OTT rather than psychological so it becomes almost comical. This film is a cult classic and deserves this kudos.

One of Disneys finest!
Considering it came from Disney's golden age, should we be surprised this was such an amazing film? A classic coming of age story filled with love, music, and heartbreak(you know exactly which heartbreak I'm speaking of) this is one not to miss!
