The ambiguous ending (3 more)
Easter Eggs
Acting was top notch; especially Sissy Spacek who needs to win an Emmy for this role
The Gordy side story. So darkly funny!
Why doesn’t everyone just move away?!
Lots of plot holes and WTF is going on moments. I was riveted through the whole thing, but it feels a lot like they were trying to do too much and the show really suffered for it.

About what you expect
I must admit I did enjoy this. Unfortunately for game adaptation it is what you expect, cheesy dialogue, masses of action and Dwayne Johnson doing what he does best. But making a film out of a basic button bashing game is a tall order and it was well done. Touching funny and kept the kids entertained. If you want a film with plenty of action watch this.
Caitlin Ann Cherniak (85 KP) rated Limericks Haiku and Other Short Poems in Books
Oct 21, 2018
I won this book in a Kindle giveaway, and I'm mixed when it comes to this book. There are a bunch of beautiful and funny short poems in here, but then there are a few that are either repetitive or made me ask, "Why does this exist?" I'm still gonna keep this book, so I can share it with friends, but I'm probably not gonna read this over and over again.
Dean (6927 KP) rated Rumor Has It (2005) in Movies

An average run of the mill rom-com/drama has some funny bits and gets more serious to the end. Starting to like Jennifer Aniston a lot more in films. She was great in friends but has done far too many rom-coms now that they just kinda all blur into one. An ok watch if you're in the mood. Although some strange plot decisions don't add up?!

I had the advantage of not having read this book, so I was able to go into the series with completely fresh eyes, and I enjoyed it very much. David Tennant is a terrific demon. Michael Sheen has some truly funny moments. I could have used more Jon Hamm. "I'm the archangel fucking Gabriel" was one of my favorite lines of the entire series. Overall a fun show!
Eilidh G Clark (177 KP) rated Angela's Ashes (Frank McCourt, #1) in Books

Funny and sad
Super. This novel is written with a first person childhood narration. Whilst this is problematic with regards to the authenticity of McCourts memory, you can not criticise him for his portrayal of childhood innocence. The novel is fantastic, great visual images, told from a convincing narrator, covering topics such as religion, poverty, alcoholism, hunger, death and growing up. I just loved it.

Odd disturbing film
A strange film with not much of a plot or explanation as to what is going on, although some might like this more because of that. It's a very gritty, raw, rather bleak film as a couple of psycho's decide to play some not so funny games with a family in a holiday home. You just need to watch a comedy after to lift your mood!
Reagan Elizabeth Grainger (288 KP) rated Greg Davies: You Magnificent Beast in TV
Nov 16, 2019
Classic Greg
The poster of him in the lake for this tour is amazing on it's own. If you enjoyed Greg on taskmater and you haven't watched his stand up this is a good place to start. The material was all new at the time and not things he had shared on talk shows or other programmes.

Songs that stick with you and have you humming them for days (3 more)
Humour, some awesome one liners
Emotional depth and even some good role modelling for men showing emotion
Loveable characterisation
Funny and deeply emotional
A very worthy sequel, which is difficult when the first was such a big hit. Had some darker moments than the first but so emotionally rich and visually beautiful.
