A Marmite Film, But We loved it!
My two daughters and I watched this on Saturday night with our expectations set on low as we'd all heard things about it that said it wouldn't be very good. Maybe that was the secret to our enjoyment, but we loved it!

It is fun and frantic, with a modern twist to the story that I adored. I thought the comedy aspects were brilliant, and the actors knocked it out of the park.

If you're looking for the movie equivalent of War and Peace then you will be disappointed. However, if you are after a fun, family movie that will make you smile and laugh then I can absolutely recommend it.

This is a Marmite Film. You will either love it or hate it. As for us, we loved it!

A must read!
It took me longer than usual to read this book purely because I didn't want it to end, so I had to keep putting it down just to savour it!
Neil Gaiman's writing style is on point in this book, it draws you right into the story. Gaiman makes you fall in love with the protagonists, and passionately hate the antagonists. He makes you question the loyalty of certain characters, and trust the ones you should have been questioning all along. Gaiman makes you feel like you are right there in London below with them.

This whole book is fantastic, the concept, the characters, the writing, the beginning; the middle; and the end. It's one of those books you never want to end, never want to put down, and could read over and over again.

It was really good. It is unfair and REALLY unclear as to how it can possibly be compared to Catwoman and the 2015 Fantastic 4. It was so much better than the critics give it. I would say, though, it's not the best comic book movie. It's more on the Ant-Man level of quality. The way Tom Hardy showed the Eddie Brock/Venom relationship was really good. Michelle Williams' Anne Wenning, Eddie's ex girlfriend, was kind of bland but was still a good character. Riz Ahmed's Carlton Drake was a REALLY good villain. They really played up the you-must-hate-him vibe. Apart from those three, the other characters were meh at the most, and wasted in ways. The humour was good and well placed. I DEFINITELY recommend seeing this. Forget what the critics say.

I'm In Love
I just wasn't expecting much from this film at all. We put it on for my little girl because she loves superheroes, and I honestly thought "here we go, some strong woman feminist statement, how cliched". Oh how wrong I was.

I was absolutely enthralled. The "wide-eyed innocence" of Gal Godot when she ventured out into the wider world could have been so overdone, but I thought she played it perfectly. Her character was one you could sympathise with and care for - so much so, I may have even shed a tear or two for her, which was something I certainly didn't expect (I kind of wanted to hate her because I expected the film to be so rubbish!).

It's definitely a film I'd happily watch again. I think I enjoyed it more than my daughter or husband!!

Errr what was it about again?
I found this to be a horrible movie and so boring. I went into it hoping it was going to be so bad it's good but it wasn't.

Firstmost I hate rap music so this was not for me. The dancing was fun but that's all there was.

I could not explain the plot to you, I didn't get it. Vanilla Ice's character was not likeable 1 bit and the other characters felt as bad. I don't even remember any of the characters names. However I do feel the female lead did the best with what she was given. The writing was pretty horrible.

Completely forgettable, wouldn't watch again. If your going to watch it for a laugh, have a few drinks with some friends.
