Groundhog Day
Phil who’s played by Bill Murray is a smug and selfish weatherman who has no choice but to live through the same day over and over again until he learns the value of caring about others. Though on the whole a lighthearted comedy, this movie also deals with depression, and Phil undertakes a series of suicide attempts. Characters drink at bars, and in a scene in which three characters are shown getting drunk in a bowling alley, one of the characters attempts to drive a car while clearly drunk. Which again emphasises how wrong it is to drink and drive.

I agree that it is a much deeper film than it first appears or than I remember it being. It doesn't just teach being a nicer person, it explores what makes a person that way in the first place.

Ok. I am completely biased towards this movie because I grew up on it. I know that this movie has problems as far as it's historical accuracy and some of its historical references. But I can't help just loving this film. It's such a fun, lighthearted adventure that is wonderful to watch and extremely enjoyable! I love the characters in this film and all of their quirky attitudes. Besides that, none of the side-characters feel like they were wasted opportunities! I think that this movie did a phenomenal job and accepted that it was going to be a dorky, fun, action-adventure film.

Good production
The game is afoot
A decent fun adventure as the younger sister of the famous detective goes in search of their Mother. This obviously has quite a big budget and features a talented cast. Millie Bobby Brown, of @Stranger Things is fun to watch in this. Quite lighthearted and only a 12 rating suggests the target audience is young adults. This isn't taxing on the old grey cells and doesn't have a great deal of mystery to it. However it held my interest. If you enjoy the Sherlock character then you should find this an enjoyable watch.

Ok whodunit comedy
I love a whodunit murder mystery film, serious or comedy. So I was excited when I heard about this Netflix film just a couple of days before it was released. I'm not a big Sandler fan but he has done some funny films. He had good chemistry with Aniston in @Just Go with It (2011) and they work together well in this as well. It was OK especially if you are a fan of the genre. The only down side really most of the best bits are in the trailer. Overall a fun lighthearted comedy with a fair share of funny moments.
  
Lighthearted, great banter, with recaps of murders that the hosts have researched and retell in their own unique personality. Kindness, crime, foul language and lots of laughs. (0 more)
Everything is great about this one. (0 more)
Hysterical, and a little eerie.
Two true friends with a passion for true crime take an oftentimes hysterical, but also sad and somber look at murder cases over the centuries. It's a great, quick, lightweight fix for folks who enjoyed Dirty John, Wrongful Conviction, and This American Life. It's light on the editing, and high on the community connection. They also poke at things that are creepy and while not all the murders have resolution, there's always something interesting and nothing that'll give you nightmares.

Book Rating
This book is a good lighthearted read. It is a complete story, however it is the first in quite a long series so there are still quite a few unanswered storylines at the end of the book.

The character development is slow, and some characters we don’t see enough of. I got the first 3 books as a bundle, so I think that is part of why I read this series as I’m not sure just one book would have got me hooked.

I did enjoy this book and getting to know Lucy and uncover the secrets as Amaris. I recommend this book if you are looking for an easy fun read.
