I've come here to help, help you decide what movie to watch this weekend. If there's two things I love it's family and good story telling, and you better saddle up and hold on tight for one thrilling ride of a family story in Let Him Go. I don't have to tell you how great Diane Lane and Kevin Costner are in it because they're always amazing, as is the supporting cast, but this the first movie I've seen from Writer/Director Thomas Bezucha and I'm now a fan. While technically listed as a 2020 release we know not much really got proper releases last year, and it's a shame this movie isn't getting proper promotion, but I'm calling this a 2021 release; my favorite of the year so far.

"I can’t help but love Giant. A lot of people don’t take Giant seriously. A lot of people like Rebel WIthout a Cause when you’re talking about a movie with James Dean and it’s okay, but I thought James Dean was practically Soupy Sales in that movie. Very over the top. Rock Hudson and Elizabeth Taylor were great in this movie. It’s a classic sweeping story, it’s got a Gone with the Wind kind of vibe, and once again, the little guy who strikes oil becomes this power mad lunatic. Then the whole way they dealt with racism and how it was at the time in Texas, with the Latino wife of Dennis Hopper and that whole thing. Great story and well acted and looked like a movie, you know?"

Mostly brilliant, some average parts

I love this series, I think the world that has been created is brilliant. I thoroughly enjoy the every growing stories and magical elements. I really feel immersed with this story.

The reason for the low rating is I think the could have been 200 odd pages shorter, I found the first 300 pages quite dull. I really dislike the language used as the voice of Rowan - so cliche, get me a bucket! When there were large sections of this story I did struggle to go, very glad that Manon was introduced. I'm also perhaps a little harsh as I was a Celaena an Chaol fan.

I will definitely be reading the next book after that ending and all the possibilities.
