Surprise Halloween treat
This looked OK from the trailer so gave it a go without expecting much. It was better than expected with a good mix of scares, creepiness and some funny moments. It had a feeling similar to @Final Destination (2000) and @Lights Out (2016) as people using a death predictor app try to cheat their fate. Well worth checking out this Halloween.

Genuinely Bizarre in the Best Way
I came into this movie with no idea what to expect and boy was it an interesting one! The characters, the plot, the special effects...I have never seen such an interesting movie! Seriously! It starts out in the grungy 1800s, and ends up in this fantastical sci-fi fantasy that just took my breath away. I highly recommend to any fantasy or sci-fi lover, an epic film.

One of the weaker Bond films
A very good action film continuing right on from Casino Royale. Plenty of action, chases and explosions. Has a certain Bourne Trilogy feel to a lot of the stunts and fights. The Bond films now are more gritty, raw without the tongue in cheek humour of the past films. One for all out action entertainment but not the best story for a Bond film.

Apr 30, 2018
A decent little English comedy about an aging hitman who lives his life by strict rules and discipline. This all goes out the window when he can't kill his latest target a young con-artist and is aided by a young runaway in trying to protect her. It has quite a few funny moments and some very British humour in this black comedy. A great cast raise the standard and it has a certain charm about it.

A great crime thriller with a a good cast. For a change for a Guy Ritchie gangster film this isn't about East end gangsters in London and there is no humour in this. It makes a nice change and the story is very good. The plot gets a bit twisted and can be hard to follow at times. However it's one of the better gangster films I've seen in a long while. Slick and stylish with some great twists.

well what can I say, wow. this is such a fantastic story. I absolutely loved the characters and the story was fantastic, I just couldn't put it down till the last page then I was left wanting more. this book had a fab mix of humour, steamy scenes and romance. this book had me laughing to myself in many parts. this book is a defiant must read.

So Quill discovers his Father is in gfact this alien being called Ego...quite appropriate. Its all part of a plan to remake the universe in his own image.
While the film has a few good moments (baby Groot, Yandu, Rocket all have stand out scenes) it's ultimately a run of the mill, by the numbers comic book movie. Yes it's pretty, yes it's got a big budget, no I didn't enjoy it.

Funny, Silly and Enjoyable
This is a laugh-out-loud film, with lots of slapstick, physical comedy, toilet humour and silly jokes.
There's nothing high-brow or thought-provoking about Men in Black, but the contrast of Will Smith's relaxed persona with Tommy Lee-Jones's straight-laced, deadpan character makes for a great partnership.
Men in Black doesn't try to be something it isn't; it's just a fun movie with some heartwarming moments and lots of laughs.
