Fargo for the 21st Century
Was expecting this to be the usual type of revenge thriller that neeson seems to do on a regular basis nowadays but this particular movie came with some very dark comedy moments that made it sort of feel like a fargo for the 21st century.

An ok film mostly but the story itself does tend to drift away from it's original opening event midway through the film and it seems the local cops are always 2 steps behind the villains.

The way the film let's the viewer know who was just killed off was pretty inventive i thought.

Great serial killer novel! Gotta love The Crazies!
This was a difficult book to put down. It has a great mix of features that makes an intense story; deep character development, detailed world building (but not too detailed because, you know, imagination), interesting backstories, mysteries, horror, a little (very little) humor, psychologically thrilling and it sticks with you for a time after the last page. This is the type of novel to read when you are sick of the typical happy-go-lucky, boy-meets-girl romance and you're looking for something dark but not too dark. On a darkness scale between Christian Grey and Black Sabbath, I'd give this a solid M. Night Shyamalan. (Whatever that means)

A great psychological thriller
From all the hype and bits I heard about the film I wasn't sure it would be one I would like that much. I finally gave it ago and I did really enjoy it. It's nothing like what I expected really. Although about a ballerina in Swan Lake there are many deep layers to the meaning of the film. Quite dark, disturbing at times and raunchy as well, many will be surprised at what they see. A great performance from Natalie Portman as the perfection driven dancer who has problems coping with what is expected of her. A great psychological thriller with some surreal scenes. If you thought you'd skip it, think again!
