Movie Critics (823 KP) rated Life (2017) in Movies
Jun 20, 2017
It’s probably best to keep any expectations low, because despite its flaws, the film proves to be more satisfying and gripping than it seems on the surface. Life is appropriately more tense than it is funny

Gripping story
A powerful thriller
One of my favourites. This is a very well made, intelligent thriller as a man goes on the run accused of the murder of his wife. The two lead actors on opposite sides are what make this film so interesting.

Amazing
Brilliant horror/fantasy/thriller.
Cast works well, story is gripping. Love all the references to my childhood! Demigoron actually made me jump!
Very much tapped into Stephen King’s realms with the story & progression

Normally, some novels start out slow and get better and more engaging from there. Unfortunately, with this book, it went the other way around. While the beginning was thrilling and gripping, the plot became progressively more disjointed and the dialogue was soap opera-like. The premise, however, is relevant and interesting.

Twist after twist in this gripping thriller
There have been a few spoilers out there comparing this book to a certain film which unfortunately ruins the ending for some who make the connection. As a result I was aware of the major plot twist from the beginning. That being said, Sebastian Fitzek's thriller is gripping, as we're unable to separate psychosis from reality. A well known psychiatrist has taken some time off to grieve his missing daughter. Out of no where a mysterious woman named Anna Glass turns up on this remote island getaway. But is she trustworthy?
The ending has a twist on top of the climax which leaves you spiralling. An eerie but good mystery.

Rickey A. Mossow Jr. (689 KP) rated Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile (2019) in Movies

Surprisingly good. Thank you Netflix and Zac Efron.
This wasn't something that was on my list to watch, but my wife is a fan of anything Ted Bundy, so I obliged. From the moment the film begins, you are immediately engulfed in the amazingly twisted love story of Bundy and Liz. The movie is incredibly paced and enthralling. Efron is his normal charismatic self, but surprisingly gripping and believable in the serial killer role. He beautifully parallels the real life man he portrays. The film also does a great job of splicing in actual police photos and TV footage, leading to the gripping final act. To say the least, I was pleasantly surprised.
Daniel Boyd (1066 KP) rated American Crime Story Season 1: The People v. O.J. Simpson in TV

Performances are all brilliant (1 more)
The script is great
Gripping TV
This retelling of one of the most high profile American crime investigations in recent history is well acted, well written and gripping throughout. Everyone puts in a great performance, from Cuba Gooding Jr as O.J, David Schwimmer as Robert Kardashian and Sterling K Brown and Sarah Paulson as the prosecuting lawyers.
Whether you think that O.J did what he was accused of is left up to you, but that honestly doesn't really matter here as the show focuses more on the mentality of the main players involved in the case.
If you are a fan of high quality courtroom dramas, then this show is perfect for you.
