Andy K (10823 KP) rated Short Circuit (1986) in Movies

No disassemble Number 5!
I remember when I saw this movie at the theatre in 1986 when it was the 2nd half of a double feature. I don't even remember what the first movie was any more.
I love this movie beyond words. The goofy humor of the robot, his interactions with Ally Sheedy and Steve Guttenberg, and even GW Bailey playing the always bad guy.
Some of the robot's one liners were just precious! "You're mamma was a snowblower!"
Probably one of those 80s movies you had to be alive then to appreciate, but still a classic!

One of the best B movies of all time
I first saw this film as a midnight movie (back when those were a thing) when I worked at the cinema. I would pop in occasionally to check on the crowd and I was always amazed at what I saw and how much the audience was getting into it and laughing hysterically.
This is one of those films you can't explain to someone without it sounds utterly idiotic, but is just a lot of fun with some good horror thrown in.
Trust me when I say you will love it!

I was really looking forward to finally watching this film. The story sounded interesting, and I love Cillian Murphy in everything.
However, this movie was boring. I did like the story, but I think the length was what made it completely boring to me. Whenever I pick up my phone and start playing a game the first time I watch a movie, I know I'm bored. Luckily, it finally started being interesting at the end of it.
Cillian Murphy was definitely one of the better parts of the film. The ending was definitely what made me rate this as ok. It was just the build up that seemed to take forever.

I was so not ready for this ending... What can I say? Beautiful beyond words... I can't even begin to say how much I loved seeing this next step towards the new life these two are building after surviving more than any two people should. The first two books in this series were so dark and twisted yet this ending somehow made it all right and beautiful in the end. His devotion to making things right between them gripped at my heart and I was SO happy that these two could find love after all they gone through. PERFECT ending to an incredible series!!

Wow! Sylvain Neuvel has done it again! I was so excited when I was approved for this ARC because I absolutely LOVE these books and Only Human is just as magnificent as the first two. I started reading it earlier this afternoon and finished it at a little after 1am; I couldn't sleep without knowing how it ended!
I'll post a longer review closer to the release date, I need a minute to process all my thoughts on this one. Just know that it is an incredible end to an amazing trilogy!
**Many thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the ARC!! All opinions are my own.**

Great Adventure
So many people said this movie had no plot and was just an excuse to use technology to create a raging monkey. First of all the plot is great. Second you have Samuel L Jackson. Third King Kong isn't even about having the best plot. It's about the wow factor. Between the king himself and all his little surprise friends this turned into an incredibly high action adrenaline rush that I wish I'd seen at the theater. If you stop looking for every movie to have profound meaning and let yourself enjoy the fantasy element you'll absolutely love this.

An inspirational book that will help you gain that little push we all need every once in a while.
I was honestly not expecting to love this little book so much. As I first began the book, I was so iffy about it being just another self-help book and that it wouldn't really phase me. Boy, was I wrong! I got emotional. I got motivated. I got inspired. This book appeases to my feminist side. It is a wonderful inspirational poetry collection that I feel like everyone should read.

Had to check this film out a few times and each time I kept finding more and more that I loved and didn't notice the first two viewings. This film sets up the story for the next three films. Depp is fantastic, Jude Law is phenomenal, and I'd say Eddie is better this time around! Baby Nifflers is always a big plus, and I would love to see Ilvermorny in the next few films, enough of Hogwash haha! Amazing film, I'm excited for the rest of the series!
Love. I'm hosting a book giveaway on my blog, so check it out. Here is the first paragraph of my review: Happiness, when you have a chronic illness it seems like an impossible defeat. Although Lee’s book is not geared towards those of us who have chronic illness. I still learned a great many things. Even her suggestions were helpful, at least for me they were. They reminded me of some key things in my life that I would do to thank Jesus for things, to express my happiness to those around me, and even to be content in who I am in Jesus.

William Peter Blatty created an iconic novel that focuses on Regan, the eleven-year-old daughter of a movie actress residing in Washington, D.C. A small group of overwhelmed yet determined individuals must rescue Regan from her unspeakable fate, and the drama that ensues is gripping and unfailingly terrifying.
Been years since I first read this book! Still scared the life out of me. A few times I've done a Joey and put it in the freezer. I keep expecting to find my 6 year old with a spinning head and vomitting green crap. I love the writing it's a true classic horror story.
