2015 | Mystery
An ok series based on the classic Agatha Christie story. A slightly different story to the film versions. It's very atmospheric with a great location and with a very good cast. For me it was just missing a certain vibe from the film. Still prefer the Richard Attenborough film version @Ten little Indians (1974)

Creep Factor of 10
Really considering that Tim Curry isn't in the flick, it's otherwise perfectly executed. Bill Skarsgard is an incredible and convincing Pennywise. The suspense is played out better than the original. And there are moments that are actually scary. I'm excited for Chapter 2!
  
3.5 stars

Hmmm... I enjoyed this ending but at the same time it seemed to be over with too quickly. We got answers to all those questions that had arisen in the previous books and I'm glad that Isa realised that Kai was the one. <br/><br/>But I also feel like something was missing.

Basic Thriller
Stumbled across this Thriller on Amazon Prime, one of Anna Kendrick's first films. It's a pretty simple, predictable thriller as she tries to track down a missing friend. Looks really dated like it was made even earlier than 2009. Similar in some ways to @A Simple Favor (2018) but that's much better.

That bit at the end... Sydney!! What are you thinking?! Fair enough I didn't want Adrian to get with Rose in VA but I totally think YOU should get with him in this series. There were the fireworks that were missing from the other kiss you got, you stupid girl.

Straight onto book 3.
