No sparkle but a lot of stars
For a film that I have heard literally nothing about this little film with a big name is a hidden treasure, based on a true story of gloria graham's later live and her love affair with fellow actor 30 years her junior (peter turner) played by Annette Benning and Jamie Bell ,it's just a nice little film that probably would have worked better as a stage play

Plenty of action scenes
Tons of action
A decent revenge action type of film. It's doesn't beat around the bush, it's quite brutal at times, throw in some fast cars, a quirky hitman, a downbeat cop, you know what to expect from this and it delivers it. It has quite a good supporting cast with a fair few familiar faces, plenty of shoot-outs, fights and the odd car chase or two. A very enjoyable film for your action needs.

A good romp with some tense atmospherics.
A great premise with some stunning CGI. Some of the scenes feel a bit forced as they have borrowed alot from other xenomorph/horror films.
Ryan Reynolds plays Ryan Reynolds with his quirky and snappy sarcasm carrying through.
Jake Gylenhall was a favourite of mine as he generally brings another character to the table.
All in all a enjoyable flick with lashings of aliens and enough tension to keep you interested.

Deceptively fabulous feminist book
This quaint, quirky mystery novel has so many themes intertwined in a logical fashion that I'm considering it to be near perfect.
With magical realism as a major part of this tale, I was initially apprehensive to what conclusion could be achieved without drifting off on a tangent. However, it came together revealing its true purpose, that of the women who at the beginning seemed meek and mild, but actually were at the heart of the plot. Well written.
