Dance, magic, dance
Its one of those movies that you love as a child and when you come back to it as an adult you realise how messed up it is haha. I love singing along to the songs, but the orange hairy puppets still freak me out. David Bowie is fantastic as the goblin king if you order all the child marriage/kidnap and turn baby into a goblin thing. Overall, fun movie and a timeless classic.

This is a dark tale of kidnap and torture that starts with the victim's escape but goes on to build into a disturbing thriller.
I liked the darkness but the story style wasn't for me. Too often we had cliff-hanger endings to characters POV "chapters" for them to take too long resolve I felt strung along.
If you enjoy a dark thriller give this ago.
Thanks to NetGalley the author and published for the ARC

Who wouldn't want a dad with a particular set of skills like Liam Neeson has.
This film moves at a great pace and is brilliant in its execution of what is simply a kidnap and rescue, its similar to John Wick for fight and weapon ballet but not as elegant.
Cant speak for the many unnecessary sequels but this one was a gem when it arrived on the scene, he will find you and he WILL kill you!

Follow up to 2019s 'Murder Mystery's, with this one seemingly just slipping in with not much in the way of publicity.
It's also a bit of a misnomer this time around - it should really be called 'Kidnap Mystery's - with the Spitzes (who have now quite their jobs and set up a detective agency) caught up in investigating the kidnapping from their own wedding of a returning figure from the 1st movie.
Which, if you've seen, you know what to expect from this.

Tear jerker
The movie over all was enjoyable in that " oh my gosh, people suck" kind of way. The whole movie I was just enraptured, the only thing that I found confusing at all was the time line. The movie is constantly switching the time line on you through out the entire movie and I found that to be confusing at times. I loved it, other than the fact I couldn't sleep because I was worried someone was going to kidnap my imaginary child"

Oh man I missed you bradfords <33333333333 A reread for me again I've reread this series repeatedly I think Book 1 will always be my favourite but this one was hilarious still, they're all just so good!!!!!!!!
I like the accident prone Necie and cute little Duncan and the infamous kidnapping .. which I mean <spoiler> did he technically kidnap her for the wedding, or was it kidnapping her to decide he wanted to marry her, because I don't think he actually kidnapped her for the wedding, are they DOOMED!!!!!!!!!! </spoiler>
I may just continue rereading all the rest now.............
