Kaylin (39 KP) rated Beauty and the Beast (2017) in Movies
Apr 22, 2017
Beautiful sets and stunning visuals (1 more)
Songs taken straight from the original
Some of the songs seemed to drag on longer than necessary (1 more)
The acting ranges from over-the-top to dreadfully underwhelming
Doesn't quite live up to the original
Beauty and the Beast isn't, by any means, a bad movie. It's faithful to it's source material, while adding a new twist on some things. The problem is that it will never be as good as the original and it tries it's best to be better. At least it answered one of my questions from the original: why would a prince not be able to read?
Chris Hooker (419 KP) rated War Stories: New Military Science Fiction in Books
Jan 12, 2018
As a military fiction fan and a sci fi fan this was the best of both worlds in one. I loved how most of the stories were from either a LBGT perspective or a female one. Also the various views of war from authors(and in a lot of cases) soldiers from not only different branches but different countries. There were one or two stories that were very difficult to read because their wordiness caused them to be pretentious and drag on(one in particular). Over all though I would recommend this book and would like to see some authors turn the short stories into full length books.
Alison Pink (7 KP) rated Lolita in Books
Jan 15, 2018
I find myself at a loss on what to say about this book. At times I was throughly engrossed in the story and fascinated by what made Humbert do the things he did. I often found myself wondering why Lolita didn't seek out an escape much sooner. Then there were points where I was utterly bored, where nothing really happened and the story just seemed to drag on and on with no end in sight.
With all that being said the book was okay. Not one of the best ever writen as many argue though and not one I will likely ever pick up again.

Skye (14 KP) rated The Cuckoo's Calling in Books

A good detective mystery.
The Cuckoo's Calling is a great first book in the Cormoran Strike series. I greatly enjoyed the mystery and putting together the clues. The book was a little long winded and dragged in areas with quite a few red herrings. However, book and it's mystery are good enough to keep you hooked throught the parts that drag. This book is definately for those who love a good detective mystery, but not so much for those who like thrillers. I personally will be reading the following books in the series based on this debute.
Kimmic (814 KP) rated Captain Marvel (2019) in Movies
Apr 12, 2019
Meh...
It was ok... but there was a large section of the beginning and middle that were dragged out. In my opinion they could have easily made the film an hour or more shorter OR they would have chucked the important parts of this (which show the links - no spoilers) into another film... not sure that it needed to be dragged across 2 hours.
That sounds bad I know, I didn't HATE it by any means... the end was good, flowed well and didn't drag, just a shame about the rest is all.
Apologies if any super fan is offended by this, but it is only my opinion.

Bren (4 KP) rated A Very Fatal Murder in Podcasts
Jun 2, 2018
Short and Satirical
I really enjoyed this podcast from the Onion. In this, we are listening to "OPR" which styled itself very much like something you would hear on NPR, complete with a fake pledge break about halfway through. I found it by mistake when I looking for a new True Crime podcast to listen to. I was glad I did. The satirical tones were pretty good, and while I generally believe you can't take satire too far, this did have some gags that were a bit much or seemed to drag on to me. Overall, it was well done and very much worth a listen!

Colors of Immortality by J.M. Muller
Four Stars
This is my first story by this author and I was not disappointed. It was unique and captivating. The story gives you a new twist. The main character Daniel is an average teen going through more than he should. You feel how relatable his character is. Just a teen with the worst kind of luck. I enjoyed the story and how the author unfolded the story. It didn’t drag or jump around confusing the reader. The details the author paint with words gave you the feeling that you were right there experiencing the same thing in that moment.
