Jenni (8 KP) rated Thirteen Reasons Why: (TV Tie-in) in Books
Jul 10, 2018
Read this on holiday after watching Season 1 on Netflix. As an avid reader, I usually enjoy the book more than the movie/tv show as it has more details, more story, but in this case I didn't enjoy the book as much as the show. I just didn't get the same feeling from the book. It might have been different if I'd read the book first, but I don't know what was different this time.
Dork_knight74 (881 KP) rated Extinction (2018) in Movies
Jul 30, 2018
A Netflix original starring Michael Pena and Lizzy Caplan. This movie was excellent. The cinematography, the acting, the special effects. All great. The story unfolds fairly quickly with a really fascinating twist to it that really catches you off guard. This sci-fi action thriller is intense. There's violence but this movie is ok for kids too. I highly, HIGHLY recommend it! Even if you're not a huge fan of sci-fi, you can appreciate and enjoy this film.
Dork_knight74 (881 KP) rated Hereafter (2010) in Movies
Aug 8, 2018
This movie is on Netflix right now. It's not a fast paced movie. It touches on the death and the afterlife and its affect on three peoples' lives. Each in a different way. Turned out to be pretty good although it's not my usual kind of movie. The acting was done well and the story, though slow going, kept my interest. The ending was a little predictable but it didn't matter to the overall storytelling. Worth a watch!
Dork_knight74 (881 KP) rated The Fundamentals of Caring (2016) in Movies
Aug 13, 2018
This Netflix original turned out way better than I initially thought it would be. The description doesn't do it justice. The cast did great and the film work was very good. The story moved along at a decent pace and it was full of humor and emotion. Warning - this movie might yank a few tears out of you. Especially if you're a parent. Good for the whole family, though. I highly recommend it. Really worth a watch.
Tina (8 KP) rated Deathnote (2017) in Movies
Aug 28, 2018 (Updated Aug 28, 2018)
Deathnote, a Netflix original. I would recommend however it was not what I had expected. I wanted the demon to be more scary and the ending was anticlimactic. Was not pleased with that. I liked the dark humor in it and the slight plot twist in the end. There wasn't much gore at all and that was disappointing to me. But if you're looking to get into the horror scene this is a great starter film!
Melody Womack (32 KP) rated Harlots - Season 1 in TV

An addicting Hulu original
Contains spoilers, click to show
The costumes and scenery in this show are pretty lovely. I love the storyline of 2 feuding brothels and the shenanigans of the harlots that live (and work) in them. The story is never low on action, although I do find one or two of the plots to be a bit too dramatic. But that's to be expected from a Hulu original. The show is as good as a Netflix show in my opinion.
Dork_knight74 (881 KP) rated The Raid 2 (2014) in Movies
Nov 17, 2018 (Updated Nov 17, 2018)
Intense
This Indonesian action movie on Netflix is a non-stop martial arts bloodfest. The acting was decent enough and the cinematography was done really well. The premise is simple - a raid on a drug lord's tenement building goes south fast, leaving most of the team dead and the rest simply trying to survive. If you're into gritty action flicks with plenty of gory fight scenes, this one is definitely worth a watch. (Unless you don't like subtitles).
Erika (17789 KP) rated Conversations With A Killer: The Ted Bundy Tapes in TV
Jan 29, 2019 (Updated Jan 29, 2019)
Serial killer/true crime documentaries are my favorite things to watch. I recently read The Stranger Beside Me, which is by Ann Rule, who worked with Ted Bundy, and, with the hype surrounding Zac Efron playing Bundy, it makes sense that Netflix would drop this now.
Sadly, it was boring, and offered very little, if any new information. If you don't really know a ton about Bundy, it's a good introduction to his ego and crimes.

Otway93 (580 KP) rated Marvel Unlimited Comics in Apps

Cost (1 more)
User Friendly
Excellent value if you read enough to warrant it :)
Marvel Unlimited is basically the Netflix of Marvel Comics, with almost every issue you can think of!
It is subscription based, but the cost is only $10 a month, or $69 for the year, and with over 25,000 issues available, I'm pretty sure it's worth it!
A great idea, and affordable for the average person...or those that are rapidly running out of storage space!
