It carries on from the first film and links in nicely! You must see the first to appreciate sone of the humour in this dark, but hilarious time- travelling comedy! (1 more)
Quite sad in places too- there’s a real story behind the humour. A dilemma the main protagonist must face when she realises she can get exactly what she wants when she is in control of her destiny!
Not a true horror in my book but I enjoyed it despite that! (0 more)
A time travelling theme with a moral dilemma!

The pure brilliance of Dead in a Week is the film never really takes the idea of an assassin being paid to kill their client too seriously and the dark humour isn’t an all-out laugh-fest, but it works on the darker side of humour.

As things go along Leslie’s attempts on William become a little harder than he first thought and he starts to doubt himself in his profession and even worse his boss, Christopher Eccleston, is also considering that it’s time that Leslie retires from the only life he knows!

Dark humour
Great characters that you can relate to
Fantastic Fun
Loved this book from start to finish. You cannot help but feel sorry for its main character, a likeable chap who cant seem to catch a break.

Get Out (2017)
2017 | Horror, Thriller
Great premise (1 more)
Welcome humour to leaven the creepiness
Final 'reveal' is a bit ridiculous given the fairly realistic vibe of the rest of the film (0 more)
Genuinely creepy film that only goes off the rails when it explains the mystery
  
Poor boring and distinct lack of humour that is implied with the title. Too many chapters revolve around the author and 'facts' that are completely dull and uninteresting that I found myself quickly flicking through to the next section.

Really enjoyed this book. Michael Marshall Smith has an excellent vision of the future, clever ideas and well written characters, with slightly dark humour ans a few twists in the plot too. A great book, well worth a read.

Great cast (0 more)
A very good Batman film with an impressive cast. Tommy Lee Jones and Jim Carrey are well suited to their roles. More comic like than the first two films and with a big injection of camp humour.

After playing it safe with one too many sequels it's nice to see Pixar has still got the magic touch with one of their best in years. Imaginative, creative and full of heart and humour. Well worth your time.

Hard to believe it was realthis is so messed up because it was real and hell, they did a good job
This was real and so messed up and the film delivered it with humour and vision. Utterly brilliant.
