Suswatibasu (1703 KP) rated Force of Nature in Books

Slow burner, slightly disappointing
As a fan of Jane Harper's debut novel @The Dry, this definitely felt like a sub-par sequel. Detective Aaron Falks returns with another case in the Australian wilderness, this time following the disappearance of a woman who went on a work retreat in the outback but never came back.
Four of the women who went with her all have motives to want to see her gone, so Falks attempts to understand what secrets she may have had about them.
The story, as described, felt underwhelming even though I appreciate the straightforward simplicity of Harper's writing. There is no massive conspiracy similar to the first but it may have lacked too much in this instance.

Good dystopian future regarding population crisis (2 more)
Good storyline
Good cast

I watch and read a lot of dystopian future. Many are about the population crisis. This has used an idea that has already been seen to be used in China and expanded on the idea and the possibilities of its enforcement worldwide. Obviously the likelihood of gm crops causing multiple births is a little farfetched but the way that the scenarios are dealt with really drew me in. And who doesn't like a good government conspiracy?
It would have been nicer to get the know each of the girls a little bit longer so you could link a face/personality to a name, but I suppose that was also the point if it.

Huh. I thought the story had ended.
Maybe A will hook up with Gossip Girl and they'll take on corrupt politicians?
***STOP! HERE THERE BE SPOILERS***
Now, that I've read the book. Am I the only one that kinda thinks with all the A shenanigans, the girls would never, ever keep a secret as long as they lived?
Seriously, some chick who looks like Ali (sort of) shows up in Jamaica and NONE of them think to send a pic in anonymously to a tabloid site? The conspiracy theorists are legion and somebody would have dug up something on Tabitha.
Also, it took a freaking year for the body to wash up? I find that pretty suspicious.
Poor Hanna. She's always been my favorite.

I actually like this movie.

Even though hitman is a movie based off of a video game. I liked this movie. I thought timothy olyphant was a great choice for hitman.
The plot: Raised from childhood by the mysterious Diana organisation, Agent 47 is the perfect killer, but when he is dispatched to kill the Russian president, 47 discovers that his employers have betrayed him. Taking prostitute and possible witness Nika with him, the enigmatic assassin flees from both Interpol and the Russian secret service as he fights to uncover the root of the conspiracy.
To me hitman is a good movie, even though its a movie based off of a video game.
Its still a good movie unlike the 2015 film.

This movie excist
Unlike the 2007 film which to me was really good and underrated. This movie sucks, i forgot that this movie came out. This movie was really bad.

Its confusing, the plot makes no sense and overall anethor bad movie based off of a video game.
Watch the 2007 movie intstead of this one.

A fantastic re-imagining
A return to a zombie infested Racoon city, following characters Leon Kennedy, a rookie cop who's first day on the force turns into a literal Nightmare & Claire Redfield who's seeking her older brother Chris (more on him later).
After a Virus is unleashed, Racoon city becomes a dark, monster filled, blood soaked Nightmarish place, where Leon & Claire must survive in order to uncover an evil conspiracy & save the City from an undead Extinction.
Great in game mechanics and nice character redesigns recreated in a dark toned game has pumped new life into a struggling franchise with more to come.
New voice work has been well received and it's not hard to see why.
