TV Season Favorite

"I like how fragmented Atlanta is. It just belies people's expectations of what a character is going to be and their socio-economic situations. I just feel like there's a lot of humour on the show but it's also dealing with a lot of heavy, serious stuff and race issues. I also just like how it's fragmented and artful. It feels more filmic to me than TV. I also like 'This Is America' - both the video and the song. I thought that was one of the most brilliant things. It's so hard to make comments about culture, and then also the entertainment world, as well as the rap world. That was amazing. That reflects a lot of the attitude of Atlanta, as well. It's being self-reflective"

Good sequel
I went in with high expectations because of the first movie being very great. And this one the story was good. It just had a lot of different parts going on that became a little difficult to follow and a little out of pieces that had to fit together. I would suggest the movie and I think my problem was I just had really high expectations for it and then didn't meet those high expectations the way I thought it would. And that's the only thing I would say is not great about the movie.

First entry in the unexpected and basically unwanted franchise. Still Jas a lot of good old 90s action nostalgia and a tad better than White House Down which was released that same year.

There's a lot to love about this book, however it's marred by a lack of clarity in it's execution. There are way too many "Did I miss something?" moments to allow complete enjoyment.

A political thriller surrounding an assassination attempt on an African dictator visiting the UN in New York. It can be a bit hard to follow and not a lot of action in it.

A good follow up, more of the same really although parts of the heist you have to pay a lot of attention to understand. Lacks the charm of the first but still fun.

A dark and slow paced thriller. Quite gritty and harsh at times....but just moves at such a slow pace without a great deal of action or tension. Could've been a lot better!

It was a bit of slow read, but I was able to connect with Jamie. He went through a lot in his lifetime and I like the way King wrapped up the story.
