A great comedy series that ended before it became too overdone. The visuals and use of music really fits well and adds to the programme I love cricket is going though my head as I wrote this. Really good characters from the core group to the demons who could forget the crack fox. I've watched it a million times and will still seek out episodes to rewatch.
Toni Lynn Donald (1997 KP) rated Soul (2020) in Movies
Aug 2, 2021 (Updated Aug 2, 2021)
I was really looking forward to watching this because it has some good voices in it( Jamie Fox, Tina Fey and Phylicia Rashad) but I was disappointed. I saw it when it first came out on Disney + so I really don't remember a lot about it, just that it was confusing at the end and a bit boring. I did like Jamie Fox's character and his Mother ( Phylicia Rashad) but other than that the story was too out there for me.

The Directing is terrible,
Unintelligible action.
The technology of the animation is purely what keeps this at a 2. Everything else is atrocious.
If you took a bad MTV music video and made a fight sequence where you didn't know who was who, this is the movie attached to it. And then they made more of this garbage. I'm just really glad michael bay made these movies instead of destroying other great Intellectual properties.

Slow Pacing
Smart Men Don't Get Married
Bone Tomhawk- is a decent western horror action film. The cast is really good, its just slow, the pacing is slow, sometimes nothing intresting happens, but it does get intresting here ansmd there.
The plot: In the Old West, a sheriff (Kurt Russell), his deputy (Richard Jenkins), a gunslinger (Matthew Fox),and a cowboy (Patrick Wilson) embark on a mission to rescue three people from a savage group of cave dwellers.
Its okay.

Cyn Armistead (14 KP) rated Mirror, Mirror (includes In Death, #37.5) in Books

The J.D. Robb story, "Taken In Death," was enjoyable - a nice thing, since it's the reason I bought the anthology. In it, Dallas takes on a kidnapper in a rebelling of Hansel and Gretel. I skipped the stupid coin story by Mary Blayney. I read one of her coin stories once and it was just too clichéd and predictable for me to ever put myself through that again. I do wonder, though, if she ever writes anything else? I went ahead and read "Beauty, Sleeping" by Elaine Fox, to see if the rest if the book would be worth reading.. While Fox's piece was okay, it was more romance than anything else. It had a supernatural twist, and it was a reworking of Sleeping Beauty, but in the end it was a romance. And to be honest, I just didn't trust the editors any more at that point. They chose Blayney and then the Fox piece, and one Robb story didn't outweigh them. I suppose if I'm ever truly hard up for something to read, I might try the other two stories in the book - but I would probably read one of the many free novels available before then.
Movie Metropolis (309 KP) rated X-Men: First Class (2011) in Movies
Jun 10, 2019
After Kingsman: The Secret Service director Matthew Vaughn left X-Men: The Last Stand because of its rushed production schedule, Fox decided to bring him back to direct this reboot of the series. Things worked well overall, though the introduction of James McAvoy as Professor X did draw some criticism. Michael Fassbender’s role as young Magneto went down very well but fans still missed the original actors. The film was nicely paced but without a compelling villain, the overall script suffered.

Clare Parrott (294 KP) rated Marrying the Rancher in Books
Mar 5, 2018
Tandy Graham leaves the army to to look after her son, Scott on the Arizona ranch she inherited after the death of her father. Life becomes quite hostile from the other ranchers after biologist Wyatt returns to track the wolves he released a few years previous.
This is the first book I've read from Roz Denny Fox and would certainly read more from this author. Marrying the rancher is a slow building clean romance with a hit of suspense and fans of Mills and Boon Cherish will love it.

Mar 9, 2018
FBI Agent O'Hare and wanted criminal Fox must team up to recover a stolen Chinese artifact and return it unnoticed before an international incident occurs.
The plot was quite fun and twisted in some unexpected ways. Plenty of tense moments hoping our heroes could pull off the impossible. The characters are still on the shallow side, but this book is fun, fun, fun!
NOTE: I was sent an ARC in exchange for my honest review.

The music
Just finished watching it's good family movie is as good as some of the other Pixar movies yes. It's a shame it couldn't be shown at the cinema instead of Disney + would have liked to have seen the movie on the big screen but never mind. Anyway one of the best parts of the movie is the music the sound of jazz not normally a jazz fan but it felt so good to listen too. Overall brilliant movie highly recommend the movie
