Do you remember the Monsters?
So the final series of what has been a classic show. No wonder it won so many awards and accolades. This series has Dexter trying to balance his life along with his dark passenger. After the ending of the last series how will his relationship with Deb be effected. So it feels slightly different to the majority of the previous series formats. It's still very good although the final episode and ending was rather disappointing to an excellent show. Let's wait and see where the new series picks up.

I wanted to like this so much as I love the other 2 but its very poor in comparison. It did enough for me to watch until the end but my score also reflects on comparison to the other 2. With all the time between films a better storyline and better song could have been thought of surely? The passing onto the younger generation is something I'm in to generally; we bought into the characters in the title not just dumb female versions of them acting out excellent adventure. But if done right can blend together seamlessly. Such a shame!

Excellent Cop Thriller
Finally caught this as I missed it at the cinema, currently on Amazon Prime. It's a decent cop thriller as 2 robbers night goes from bad to worse after killing some cops during a raid. So Mahattan gets put into lock down as they are pursued through the night.
The action scenes are good and it goes at a good pace, making it quite intense. It did remind me of a couple of other Cop thrillers, so not that original. It's very well made and with a good cast make it an enjoyable ride.

David McK (3857 KP) rated Turn Coat (The Dresden Files, #11) in Books
Aug 27, 2021
Another excellent entry in Jim Butcher's Dresden Files series: better than the one before it (Small Favour), but not the best entry in the series as a whole.
This time, Dresden must uncover who has framed Warden Morgan - formerly his chief prosecutor on the White Council - and see if he can uncover the traitor within the ranks of that body.
By the end of the novel, the world (as a whole) has become a somewhat shadier place: how do you know what the right thing to do is, when there is no clear-cut right or wrong?

David McK (3857 KP) rated Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure (1989) in Movies
Mar 22, 2022 (Updated Apr 13, 2023)
Light-hearted slacker romp through history, starring a very-young Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter as the eponymous duo Bill & Ted (respectively, Winters and Reeves) who are in danger of failing their high school history assignment and so being split up forever.
Which is obviously NOT what the future society wants, based - as it is - on their music, and so sends Rufus back in time via a time travelling phone box (shades of the TARDIS, anyone?), to help them pass said history course.
Silly? Absolutely?
Fun? Yep.
Remember, folks, in their immortal words: "Be Excellent to each other"

The 60's timeframe makes for an awesome aesthetic (2 more)
Great acting
Thought I figured it out halfway through. Then came the twists
Very slick and stylish psychological thriller!
Any time Edgar Wright is at the helm, you know you're in for a treat, and this film is no exception! Slick and stylish visuals, an intriguing story, and excellent acting from the leads. If you're a horror fan, you'll love it! If you're an Edgar Wright fan, you'll love it. Honestly, check it out either way. You'll be glad you did!

excellent addition to the series
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.
This is book 4 in the Hearts and Health series, but you don't need to have read the others first, they are all stand alones.
I don't usually much care for younger main characters; end of high school, beginning of college age; probably because I'm far older than that, but while I KNEW Beau and Wade were that age, it never really sunk in, you know?? I KNEW they were 18 and 19, but they did not SEEM that age.
Wade and Beau have crushed on each other for as long as they can remember, but Wade's coming out led to disastrous consequences, and he doesn't want to admit that he's gay, not to himself, nor to anyone else. Beau, while not fully OUT, certainly aware of what and who he wants. When Beau is attacked, Wade goes all protective and the two get to really know each other.
I can't quite file this book on the warm and fuzzies shelf, like Bedside Manner, because Wade carries a lot of guilt about one thing and another BUT it is a fantastic read. Watching Wade and Beau getting to know each other properly, after being around each other for years, watching Wade deal with his demons, and watching them both fall, and fall far is excellent reading.
Wade pops up in Urgent Care, he is Trent's nephew and Wade is ANGRY at everything and everyone. We get just WHY he is so angry here and its painful reading, listening to Wade deal internally with everything, it really is.
An excellent addition to this series, and it introduces us to Dr Casper Rollins, who has his story next. I look forward to reading it.
5 not quite warm and fuzzie stars, but very nearly.
