21 Bridges (2019)
2019 | Crime, Drama, Thriller
Much of the storyline is a bit fuzzy throughout the entire film, with some exceptions. Specifically the final third of the movie. But what makes 21 Bridges special is the acting. Chadwick Boseman shows he truly has high quality acting chops without relying on heavy CGI and an extensive supporting cast. JK Simmons also shows up in a role that suits his style quite nicely. Great fight scenes make this movie a very worthy action flick that you should grab a bucket of popcorn and enjoy.

"Motörhead on the other hand are very much included in that heavy metal thing. My tribute to Lemmy would be that he was genuine, through and through. He never posed behind any manner of falsehood. He was exactly what he stood for: a rock & roller through and through. 

I once heard it said that he caught one of his sons, he caught his youngster extolling the virtues of speed. And Lemmy said: ""Naw, don't get too much behind speed. What you want is weed!”"

Stranger things were a good retro feel your without it being heavy in it but it also had a good strong story. Nancy wheeler character having the love triangle felt confusing and didn't need. The boys group are funny landing the jokes. Jim hopper is a good sheriff and wanting to protect the female protagonist. But in the second season felt juggling too many individual stories on character. Too much

Book Rating
heavy on the emotions!
Independent reviewer for GRR, I was gifted my copy of this book.

This is book 3 in the Unexpected Love series, and I have not read books one or two. I want to, but you don't need to read them.

Jordan and Miles connect via an online group for plant dads. Their connection quickly grows but Jordan suffers from clinical depression and Miles is a ten hour drive away. When Jordan needs him, Miles jumps on a plane. But what will Jordan do when Miles needs him??

I liked this, I liked it a LOT. I did struggle though, at points and let me tell you why. Someone very VERY close to me suffers from depression, almost as bad as Jordan. And when he was spiraling, and we get it all? I could see them, and how they suffered. It's clear the author has either first hand experience, or has done a massive amount of research to get all the intricacies of clinicla depression and how it manifests itself for different people.

I loved that Miles made Jordan see how much his group of friends cares about him. He didn't see it, not really. And they do care, deeply for Jordan and indeed Miles, once Miles is in that group.

For me, the steam and smex play second fiddle to the emotion that comes out this book. Given Jordan's diagnosis and Miles' struggling, it's heavy, HEAVY on the emotion and I really did love that.

I liked finding out about the guys from books one and two, they play a part here. And just what is going on with Vince, the bouncer at the bar where Jordan works?? His book is next and I'm jumping straight in!

4 very VERY good stars
