Elli H Burton (1288 KP) rated Atonement (2007) in Movies
Jul 3, 2021
Keira Knightley - the part is her. (2 more)
James McAvoy - he is without doubt one of the best actors of today.
Saoirse Ronan - she really made me hate her character.
Warning in full description.
First time I've ever watched this tonight. Now, even normally I cry at this kind of film but I'm 5 months pregnant.
DO NOT MAKE THIS MISTAKE- AVOID WHILST PREGNANT. I was an absolute snivelling, blubbering mess. It really does hurt your heart to watch, it's also different than most stories you'll see regarding the ending. (I hope, if you've seen it, that makes sense 😊)
Definitely a tear jerker, has its lovely moments but mostly really sad.

This isn't really something I normally read. I wasn't enthralled and I didn't "get lost" inside the book, but I did feel heartbreak, anger, disbelief, hope. I had never heard of Wilhelm or any of the other tragedies mentioned - when I hear WW2, I think of the Holocaust. It is obvious that war is a time of suffering, when horrendous actions are committed by both sides, but it's hard to remember that when your mind is taught about the opposing sides' atrocities. Reading about the things done by both Russians, their allies, and Germans broke my heart. Even if I didn't love this book, I definitely learned something new and gained more perspective.

I'm grinning like an idiot due to the end of that last chapter, not the epilogue, the chapter.
Amaranthe and Sicarius, sitting under a tree, K I S S I N G!
Ha ha! Took them long enough. So happy about that but at the same time him deciding that they wont pursue it until after they get pardoned by the emperor. That's another 4 books or so away! I love you guys!
Not forgetting the rest of the group, of course. You're all great but I think apart from Amaranthe and Sicarius that Maldynado is my favourite. I hope he gets his statue in the end!
Need to buy books 4-7 ASAP!

I won a copy of this book a year or so ago and if I'm honest, contemporary romances are not really my thing anymore. That being said, I thought the story was well thought out and well written, with just the odd spelling mistake here and there.
I've never read anything like this--it most certainly is like Groundhog Day--and it was a refreshing change but at the same time if it had taken one more reliving to make it all perfect I might have given up on it.
I was cheering our girl on as she fell for Ben throughout the weeks and I hope that they make it as a couple.

Lee (2222 KP) rated Undone - Season 1 in TV

Incredible
It's not very often I binge watch a show but from the moment I saw the trailer for this, I just had to watch it all.
It's kind of difficult to explain the show outside of what is hinted at in the trailer - Alma is seeing visions of her dead father, who is now teaching her how to time travel so that she can go back and try to prevent his death!! It's a trippy, sci-fi drama dealing with grief, trauma and mental illness, beautifully told using a rotoscoped animation style and featuring a great cast including Rosa Salazar and Bob Odenkirk. I absolutely loved it and really hope we get another season.

Ducklady (1174 KP) rated Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark (2019) in Movies
Aug 29, 2019 (Updated Aug 29, 2019)
Started off well and the actors were great
It starts off with another set of "loser club" like kids. They were a pretty decent set of actors although their characters make some questionable decisions (but dont all characters in horror). The monsters were so well-made and didn't rely heavily on CGI which was really fantastic.
The ending was very predictable and the scares got lost and folky tales got completely lost.
Now im gonna have to read the book and hope that the sarah bellows storyline was made up for the movie, as that was weird and didn't quite cut it for a background story.
