The Boogeyman is back
Carrying on from the same night as the 2018 film, much as Halloween 2 did. There are a lot of ties to the first two original Halloween films. This features characters, and some of the same actors who were kids in the first two films. Along with some flashback scenes set in '78. It's a nice touch.
There isn't a great deal of depth to the story as such but Michael is one lethal killing machine. The scene when faced with a whole fire crew is pure carnage. A little sub plot of the town coming together as a mob to tackle Michael was a bit silly. By the end you know Michael is pure evil and sets up for Halloween Ends next year.

Another solid Joe Wright film. Gary Oldman did an amazing job as Churchill, the ultimate spin doctor. It was a good year to bring this film out, since Dunkirk came out a few months earlier. The movie did a good job, building the tension between the various political figures, and the war. It was also nice to see Ben Mendelsohn not play a villain.

Will get stuck
This song will get stuck in your head. It is reminiscent of the Bone Thugz and Harmony "Crossroads" song. The radio plays it so much that one finds one's self humming it throughout the day.

It is a really catchy song and Khalid can definitely sing but it in my opinion is just a fad that will soon blow away.
  
A fun pair of stories set with the Ninth Doctor, Rose and Jack. The first may be the best Slitheen story told to date, and that's saying something about the reviled monsters from Raxacoricofallapatorius. The second has some nice moments with a future Micky not wanting to deal with No. 9, in a misfire about Rose gaining superpowers. For our full review... http://travelingthevortex.com/?p=8201

Sometimes life isn't quite what you expected. A novel about finding yourself and finding true love.
This is a nice little debut novel about Sophie, a young woman who is torn between her love for her boyfriend and her growing feelings for her best friends sister. Set in Scotland, this novel is tragic, romantic, gripping and sad.

Although the book was easy to read, found it a bit unbelievable at times considering it is claiming to be a true story. I have to wonder if the author embellished the story a bit. Hard to believe that so many thing went wrong and then worked themselves out perfectly during his journey. The story was still nice and did find myself engaged throughout.

I'm really confused as to why this movie was even made. The CGI was bad, the accents were all over the place, and the costumes looked like they were from a middle school play. Every time Jesus was on screen, all I could think about was Xerxes from 300. The 2 is only because Jack Huston and Toby Kebbell are nice to look at.

A simple and short action film that pacts a big punch. It doesn't disappoint when it comes to the action watching giant robots and alien creatures have a scrap in a major city. Would have been nice to see a few more robot designs and more alien screen time. If you liked the first one you'll enjoy this.

Love the Giveaways addition. One thing I would like to see is the ability to link to a specific giveaway. For those of us who are giving items away, it would be nice to share the link around our other social media accounts. Currently (unless I'm missing something) you can only link to the Giveaway page itself, but not to a single giveaway item.
