Russ Troutt (291 KP) rated Venom (2018) in Movies
Jul 2, 2019
Like a small dog that an old lady would sneak into a hospital, Venom had plenty of bark leading up to its release but not much bite. I love Tom Hardy, he's one of my favorite actors in the business right now, but even he couldn't save this movie. I feel like they did a great job with Tom Hardy and the Venom character itself, I dug it and got some good laughs out of it. For me though, the story they were stuck in was the real parasite. This is one of those movies I'm sure many will enjoy and many will hate. I always hope everyone enjoys every movie they watch though, no matter my opinion. The voice in my head says to wrap this rambling up so we can go eat, so let me finish with this. Here's to dreaming of a world where one day humans, with all of our opinions and differences, can peacefully intertwine and be symbiotic.
Russ Troutt (291 KP) rated Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019) in Movies
Jul 26, 2019
Once upon a time there was this amazingly talented writer and director from Tennessee that created pure cinema magic every time he put pen to paper, finger to keyboard, eye to camera. That time was and is now and his name is Quentin Tarantino. His ninth and newest film Once Upon a Time in Hollywood has as many stars as one might see spread across the night sky lighting up the Hollywood Hills, actually that light might just be from the spotlights at the newest dirty movie premiere. Every actor delivers what one might say is some of the greatest acting they've seen in their whole life. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is more tasteful than a can of Wolf's Tooth dog food, as crisp and refreshing as an Old Chattanooga beer, and as smooth as a Red Apple unfiltered cigarette with a drag that you want to keep pulling from and never want to end.
An Epic Tale
A great story filled with characters from myth, legend and story books. After the detour in Salty Dog, Sea Breeze takes Quinn back to her original Objective to Find Jack and Stop him and if she can, Rescue him.
She meets up with a true hodgepodge of great characters and sails off on her mission.
On a personal note I think this is Cameron's best novel to date. I appreciate a book that takes the time to not only tell a story... but make me feel what the characters are feeling.
I really cant wait to get my hands on the next book and see what happens next!

Florida, hurricane season! When dad wasn’t answering his phone, Hayley’s sister pleaded for her to go and check on him.
Hayley drove to her old family home to find dad unconscious in the crawl space underneath the building. But he was not alone! Alligators from the local alligator farm (as an English person, I don’t understand this concept) has managed to access this sub level and were causing some trouble!
Water levels were beginning to rise, and their time was running out! What follows is a loop of escape and then more gator run ins.
I expected a little more from this film, but as a fan of shoddy animal related, creature feature horrors, whilst it didn’t wow me, it was not boring! I had issues with how unrealistic they were acting dispute their injuries. The gators were mostly realistic. And the acting wasn’t awful. It was just a very middle of the range film.

Enjoyable coming of age book by Stephen King
A mid-range Stephen King book. Not exactly a horror if that is what you are looking for but a good read none the less.
Devin Jones takes a summer job at Joyland but it turns out to be so much more than what he was expecting. He discovers that he enjoys "Wearing The Fur" or in other words the big dog mascot costume that all employees rotate through, and that he is good at it. Like many amusement parks, Joyland has its own resident fortune teller and ghost, both of which Devin is skeptical about, to begin with, but takes an interest in any way.
I highly recommend this to all Stephen King fans, especially those who like his earlier work.

Fantastic for the price
I gave this a go as my wife was looking for something that she could listen to when she was walking the dog. When it came I was amazed by just how many functions it has. Aside from the mp3 and video capabilities, it also has photos, ebooks, pedometer, fm radio, stop watch, alarm and lots more. I was a little perturbed to find that I could not Bluetooth songs to it, only connect it by Bluetooth to headphones. It comes with all the necessary cables and instruction. It also comes with a strap on armband so you can easily slip the mp3 player into it, which makes it ideal for those people who want to jog or run whilst listening to music. A great item for a great price (£34.99 on Amazon)

Super Sonic Speed: Chill Dog
Sonic The Hedgehog- i wanted to see this film so badly in theaters and didnt. Now after two months, i finally got a chance to see it and what did i think? It was really good. I liked the comedy, the action, sonic himself, the jokes were funny and Jim Carrey.
The plot: The world needed a hero -- it got a hedgehog. Powered with incredible speed, Sonic embraces his new home on Earth -- until he accidentally knocks out the power grid, sparking the attention of uncool evil genius Dr. Robotnik. Now, it's supervillain vs. supersonic in an all-out race across the globe to stop Robotnik from using Sonic's unique power to achieve world domination.
It is a good movie based off of a video game, now thats hard to believe, cause movies baded off of a video game usually suck. This one though is really good.
