Netflix is killing it
I absolutely loved this movie. It featured a great main character trying to find her place in the world. I have really enjoyed this trend I've noticed lately where young female characters find there confidence. It's a nice change from the classic handsome boy shows up and solves all the problems.
The supporting characters were also great, and helped add to the comedy of the movie. Each one was extremely unique, and they all truly added something to the story.
The only reason I am giving this movie a 9 and not a 10 is because, in a few places it was hard to tell what the actors were saying. Other than that it was great, and I would highly recommend.

interesting superpower concept (2 more)
nice back story
keeps you guessing
can be tedious with characters being very ridgid (1 more)
first few episodes seem aimless
Has potential to be great
Contains spoilers, click to show
This was an interesting show to have stumbled upon. I like the premise of 2 individuals powers being linked. There are many questions still to be answered. Unfortunately, from the first 4 or 5 episodes there is not much to keep you hooked, they seem a bit aimless, and the characters who are inexplicably linked don't really go well with each other. It pick up after that, although episode 8 seems to tie the whole story ark in a bow, leaving you in a position where yet again there is no real reason to continue watching.

I was left feeling disappointed after seeing this film. The first one was such a feel good comedy with a great storyline and this film just didn’t measure up.
It still had a fantastic cast and great songs so I think it was the storyline that was lacking for me. A lot of the film was telling Donna’s story of how she met Sam, Bill and Harry, this was nice but I didn’t feel it added anything new to the story. The present was Sophie trying to get the hotel ready for its grand opening. To be honest not much happened in this part of the story.
Overall the film was okay I just didn’t feel there was enough of a storyline.

There are many useful things on Facebook and also many useless things when an update is being done I think asking the users what they want to see or remove might an idea but keep it to minimal amount otherwise no updates would get done I understand you can please everyone but would be nice if someone tried.

Fair to Middlin'
I really wanted to love this movie. The Conjuring has been one of my favorite horror movies since its release. Sadly, this film relied on jump scares and predictable outcomes instead of the insidious creepiness that I loved in the previous movies. Although it does succeed in bridging the gaps between the two Conjurings, the storyline itself was weak and disappointing. With all the time it took to be released, I feel that a much better film could have been produced. Visually it was great. The Nun character is still as horrifying as before, but the movie glosses over the origin of the demon. I appreciated the few comedic bits, but overall this movie was a letdown.

Time to throw away the key for this franchise...
So wow we are onto the 4th film huh?
Oh its another prequel based off of the psychic woman...
This movie is lacklustre, not great on scares, adds little to the mythos other than a few more questions, and is just plain weak.
I don't really have a lot to say on this, I mean its not terrible...its watchable...the sidekicks are starting to really grate by this point...and all the best moments are essentially versions of moments from other Insidious movies.
Only watch if you are a big fan of the series!

Ok is the perfect descriptor for this film.
I have two major gripes, first of which is that around half an hour needed to be edited out. Some of the scenes were excruciatingly long, and the use of the singing over and over again was really tiresome. The second gripe is that there was nothing new or original about this film. Everything was kind of obvious from the very beginning.
Jeff Bridges acted the same as he has in films for the last 10 years, so nothing new or original there. Chris Hemsworth was nice to look at, and he was a convincing Charles Manson-esque dude. I'm also not sure as to why they'd give Jon Hamm's character an interesting story, only to discard him.

I honestly don't have much to say about this book. It is simplistic and written very basically, yet it has a certain something that endears me to read it again and continue with the series. The plight of the Westward Pioneers is something I have a great personal interest and considerable knowledge so it is nice to know that Ingalls Wilder has not elaborated and 'tweaked' too much of her life to make this more exciting. It is a true representation of the daily life of those first brave Americans who went west to find space, fame and fortune; something that was iconic of the era and this book captures that beautifully. Very much looking forward to reading the next in the series!
I bought this off Ebay a while ago, possibly even before my little girl was born. I am such a massive reader and so I think it would be amazing if my baby girl was to grow up loving books too, therefore I started early buying her lots of books. This is one of the better ones that I have shared with her, the content and the quality is great. The book is nice and sturdy with clean cut, safe corners and is bright and compact. This book allows children to learn to count whilst looking at shiny, glossy pictures filled with bright, beautiful colours. My 3 month old little girl is fascinated with this book and loves to touch and grab the pages.
