Office Space crossed with Battle Royale
So it's obvious where this film has drawn it's inspiration from, and I think it may have gone a little too far with the Battle Royale similarities.

Still, it was nowhere near as bad as I expected. Yes it was mostly predictable, but it was brilliantly bloody and gory and still managed to raise a few laughs. The ending wasn't great, but it was still fairly enjoyable and it was refreshing to see a film not even attempting to push the 2 hour barrier and drag on for far too long like most tend to do now.

If your not watching you are seriously missing out.
Game of Thrones is one of those few shows that seriously lives up to all the hype, while it can drag on a bit at times which is to be expected when you have so many main characters, not all of which you like or care about you do get an amazing story that while massive is really fun to watch.

For me, the standout for the show is the costumes they are all so breathtakingly designed and unique to the shows world I could watch this show just to watch the costumes.

Beautiful writing
Drags slightly in places (0 more)
I loved the writing in this book, it's the first Val McDermid book I've read and it won't be my last.

The character creation and development in the first part of the book as really engaging. I was fully pulled in Scotland in the late 1970s and into the group of friends as their relationship altered as events affected them.

I did fell it started to drag a bit in the second part but really picked up pace for the end and would recommend for anyone wanting a character driven crime thriller.

Classic Billy Wilder comedy farce, starring Marilyn Monroe, Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis (doing his Carey Grant impersonation), with the latter two playing down on their luck musicians who witness a mafia murder during the Prohibition Era of the 1920s and hatch a plan to escape Chicago by joining an all-girl band (enter Monroe) in drag in order to escape.

Full of sizzling one liners/repartee such as:

"Water Polo? Isn't that awfully dangerous? "
"I'll say. I had two horses drown under me..."

(I think it was 2)

and who can forger the final line of the film ("nobody's perfect")!
