Lauren Louise Reynolds (45 KP) rated The Hobbit in Books

Nice writing style (1 more)
Love bilbo
Massive battle, hardly know anything that happened (1 more)
About 20+ characters I couldn't keep track of
Not my kinda thing
I read due to the hype, probably shouldn't have.
Don't get me wrong I loved the writing style and songs throughout and if course bilbo.
But sooo many characters, then there's this battle but you just get a quick briefing of it. Didn't care for any other characters either. Though I felt sorry for the ponies.

Rachel Maria Berney (114 KP) rated Zombieland (2009) in Movies

A different zombie film
I just watched this for a second time and I still think it's a pretty good zombie film. Good actors and a guest appearance by Bill Murray.
It's not your typical zombie film, there is a definite lack of zombies and a focus on the personal and relationships during the apocalypse, with humour. It does make a nice change.
My favourite quote I sthat we've gone from "mad cow, mad human, mad zombie"

David McK (3372 KP) rated Wolverine: Origin II in Books
Jan 30, 2019
Poor old Wolvie: he never seems to catch a break.
Early 20th-century (pre WW1) set story about James Hewlitt, the man who would become Wolverine who -as this starts - is living wild in the woods.
When his family of wolves is slaughterd by a bear, however, and when he then kills said bear, this sets in motion a chain of events that sees Wolverine being hunted, eventually captured, put on show and experimented upon ...
Nice art, so-so story.

Dean (6925 KP) rated Demons Never Die (2011) in Movies
Dec 24, 2018
Good to see the English having a go at a slasher film.....but why does it always have to be so low budget. Tulisa makes a 5min appearance, so not sure why on the cover of the DVD....bit of a marketing ploy there. Interesting take on the idea but the plot just twists in totally random directions at times. It was a nice surprise to see some of it filmed in and around Hammersmith in London where I used to live!
Sarah Betts (103 KP) rated Trouble on the Books (Castle Bookshop Mystery #1) in Books
Dec 31, 2019
I received this copy of Trouble on the Books from Netgalley and the publisher.
This was a very cool mystery. Shelby works at a bookstore in a castle. The only real beef I have with this book is that there's not a whole lot about the castle.
More castle, please!
So a not very nice person is killed and poor Shelby discovers the body.
The characters are great. I really enjoyed Edie.
There's also a really intriguing b plot involving Shelby's mom.

New take
Darker but intriquing
Totally different take on much loved characters from Sabrina the Teenage Witch. Strangely enough, this version seems more realistic to me than the original. Plus it addresses issues that have developed since the first "nice" version. Love it so far. Sometimes the acting is not so great and the lighting can be dark which, while fitting, does make it hard to see what's going on.

Nice playing pieces
Could be better
I bought this for my son because I used to love playing it when I was younger and he kept asking to play the adult monopoly with us.
However I was disappointed to find out they have simplified the currency far too much. They only use 1s.
If they'd stuck to 1s, 5s, 10s and 20s like I used to have it would have a far more educational side to it.

Tiffany Webb (57 KP) rated Peanut in Apps
Jan 23, 2020
Peaceful place to meet mummy friends!
Peanut is a fantastic app to use of your a mum looking to meet other mums to hang out with, chat too and arrange play dates! It's perfect for seeking advice from other parents when your struggling a little and just a nice stress buster with a little bit reassurance from other mums in the same position as you are.
Erika (17788 KP) rated The Most Dangerous Animal of All in TV
Mar 14, 2020
Crime documentaries are, by far, my favorite programs to watch. Last week Hulu released FX on Hulu, and this was the first non-fiction show from FX.
It's a nice, tight, four episode series about a guy who tracked down his birth mother, and subsequently his father, who he believes is the Zodiac Killer. It was completely engaging, and the evidence was compelling.
To avoid spoilers, I have to stop there. It's well worth the watch and I highly recommend it.

Kate (355 KP) rated Love Wedding Repeat (2020) in Movies

Not as funny as you think it is going to be.
Saw this listed onNetflix as one to watch and apparently it rated number 3 in the list - how??. Watched the trailer and thought this might be a nice film to giggle along too to help pass the time, don't think I giggled once although my mouth might have twitched. Yes the story line was alright and this could happen at any wedding, an hour later I have probably forgotten most of it.
