Crazy plot
One of the most original horror films in years
I had heard weird and wonderful things about this film, thus expecting something totally different to the norm. You can figure out early on the general feel of the film.... But in the final third it racks up the craziness! Some plot lines did remind me of some other films. The ending could have been drawn out a bit longer as well. I throughly enjoyed it. Good to see Daniel Kayuula in something mainstream, having seen him in some UK TV series in the past. One to watch.

Just like all the other books in the series, this was one was just as good, actually better than the previous one. I cannot believe that Joe betrayed Lindsey like that, even if it was for the good of the country. How does he expect her to forgive him for that when she's not even sure she knows who he is anymore?It was crazy but oh so good and I can't wait for the next book to find out if there able to move on from this or if that was the end of Lindsey and Joe forever
Whatchareadin (174 KP) rated The Same River Twice in Books
May 10, 2018
I decided to read this book, at the suggestion of someone else that this was a page-turner. I love a good page-turner. Well, they were right, I was certainly turning the pages, but only to find out if anything interesting was going to happen. Or to find out if the action was going to continue. It seemed as if the author kept building up different scenes only to have them fizzle out. Girl gets snatched up by crazy goons and then they just let her go... I was expecting more from this book, but it just wasn't there.

Bonkers
Let's be honest, a Studio Ghibli film is never going to bad and is most usually going to be a little bit weird and wonderful. Well Ponyo is about as wacky and bonkers as you can get for a storyline, and you spend most of this film wondering what on earth you're watching. Which isn't a bad thing, it's just a bit surreal.
The animation side is wonderful as always and it's a heartwarming story, albeit a bit crazy. I wouldn't say it's one of my favourite Studio Ghibli films, but its still a fun family entertaining animation.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2346 KP) rated Revenge for Old Times' Sake: A Tracy Eaton Mystery in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Tracy Eaton is shocked when her normally straight laced husband punches his boss. But when the boss shows up the next morning floating in their swimming pool, Tracy must get to work keeping her husband from getting framed for murder. This book is full on craziness, and so much fun. But the mystery behind the fun is very well thought out. If you don't want zany, don't even consider it. But if you enjoy wild and crazy, this series is for you.

Kristy H (1252 KP) rated With or Without You in Books
Feb 13, 2018
One of those books I wanted to really love going in, because there just isn't much lesbian fiction out there, and what is out there, well most of it really isn't that good. This book was actually pretty well-written and quite compelling -- I blew through it about 2 or 3 days -- though I was a bit dejected that the main (lesbian) character was a murderer (don't worry, that's not a spoiler). If it's a not cheesy lesbian romance, us gays must be murderers and crazy people. Still, the tale was interesting and quite beautiful, at times, in a weird, melancholy way.
BobbiesDustyPages (1259 KP) rated Alice (The Chronicles of Alice #1) in Books
Mar 24, 2018
Christina Henry really did create a truly twisted version of Wonderland in Alice and I really loved her take on the characters I've enjoyed since I was just a small child they were dark and crazy and I only wish she would have explored each character a little more.
My favorite character by far was het take in The Caterpillar I would love to read a book just in him his whole part was just so dark and twisted.
The plot while familiar had a lot of great twists though some of it got a bit repetitive at times for me.

Shark Tank takes some of the richest entrepreneurs known and they sit in judgement over peoples business and product ideas.
Joe Bloggs from the street presents his idea in hope a shark will invest.
Some of the biggest products of the time got a big break on Shark Tank.
It is fiercely compelling to watch people sell their passion projects. Once you start you can’t stop. I binged three season on Netflix in a matter of weeks.

One for the action junkies
A very good Netflix original action film with Chris Hemsworth as a mercenary on a mission. Very simple plot of rescuing a kidnapped son of a drug lord and trying to get out of the city alive.
This does have some amazing long action scenes and shootouts up there with the best of them. If you enjoyed @John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum (2019) or @6 Underground (2019) then you'll know what to expect. Sit back and soak up the crazy action scenes.
