Erika (17788 KP) rated Artemis in Books

I have to say, I was really disappointed in this book. I was expecting something great, but, I really just wanted to stop reading halfway through. All I could think about while reading was how much money I could get from half price books when I go to sell it in a few days.
The lead character, Jazz, was just annoying and unlikable. The dialogue was weak and the characters were one-dimensional. I think my expectations were way too high, because I loved The Martian. Overall, I wish I could get the hours of my life back.

Great two player adaptation
My wife and I like this game for its smaller table footprint, speedy turn play and the play time is not extensive. This game is about creating your own ancient civilization. There are multiple paths to victory, and it is important that you think out your goal based on the cards laid before you and observing what your opponent is doing. You can achieve victory through military might, having a strong economy to get lots of money, or just building the best buildings and getting your wonders made.

A fun thriller, though formulaic.
I've always been enchanted by the idea of escape rooms. Always wanted to do one, just never had the chance. Ironically enough, this movie only enhanced my desire to do one. A very likeable and familiar cast serves their purpose through the twist and turns of a thriller that follows the now formulaic nature of the genre. Everyone gets a mysterious invite, enticed by money, and chaos ensues. Film flies by with a great mix of mystery, suspense, and action. An enjoyable time. Got to try one of these rooms soon.

Man where do I start this film had so much to offer yet it was so appalling!!!
Nicolas Cage's acting is the really poor and the script,dialogue and locations aren't any better.
this movie had a budget of 3 million pound and God knows when I spent the money because they didn't spend it make this film.
If you looking for a film on Netflix and come across this one don't be fooled by the write up or the trailer, I would keep looking for a better film because this films sucks.

I have shopped on wish on several occasions. One thing I do love is if you are unhappy with a product or you do not receive your product with will refund your money. I have received a few good items. Most of it is low quality. The jewelry is mostly fake and flakes and looks terrible after wearing it a couple times. The makeup is a hit or miss and the clothing is not true to size. Shipping takes several weeks to several months. Overall okay. Just remember you get what you pay for

Jul 1, 2018 (Updated Jul 1, 2018)
I loved the film, the storyline was good, it just didn't wow me like the first one did. It seemed to me that it was trying to hard to beat Jurassic World. Bryce Dallas Howard, excels herself in it, but she is maybe not the beat person for it. It felt like she was trying to hard to keep up with Chris Pratt & everyone else.
I hope they do a 3rd and final one, and don't be money grabbing idiots and try and drain it. It would be nice to see how Blue ended up.

In all honesty, I use Netflix more than I use direct TV. When I look for new movies or shows to watch I always get on netflix. It's affordable and easy to use. My money isn't wasted on Netflix. A good selection of movies and shows are available for download but for a short limited time which I love and hate because if I'm traveling I don't want to worry that I now have to Uninstall and reinstall. But otherwise best app I use!

Not very good
Contains spoilers, click to show
This movie uses the fact that it is intended for a younger audience to ignore major plot holes and problems. The teenage characters make some very questionable decisions in the movie, and are rewarded for it in the end. The "bad" kids in the movie don't face any consequences for leaving another teenager injured and stranded in the desert. While the "good"kid steal money from an ATM, but thats apparently okay because the robot dog hacked it. That's just the start of the problems I found in this movie, but maybe a kid would enjoy it.

Two hours of my life I'm never getting back
I really like old westerns, so I had high hopes for this movie. Needless to say it was a let down. You would think that with a two hour runtime they would manage to include some entertaining content unfortunately that was not the case. The movie was just boring from start to finish. The beginning fails to get the viewer engaged, and the ending was anticlimactic to the point that it was painful. Save your money and skip this movie. You're better off rewatching a classic western than setting through this trash.
