I liked the characters of Luke and Sofie and the time travel aspect, but I wish more of the time travel would have come into play. Also, I felt like the bad guys were invented on the spot by the author when she needed them. There was no real motive for why they did the things they did.

I guess what saved the book for me was that I really liked Luke and the situation he found himself in where he was caught between a rock and a hard place. (Oops! No pun intended!)

Hilarious film about a made-up sport, free from all the corporate nonsense associated with the other major sports, and one where less athletic people could play.
From the early days of the sport's creation to the tension starting to tell in the creators (one wants to keep the sport true to its roots, the other wants to capitalise on the commercial success), this hilarious film shows Trey Parker and Matt Stone in real life for once, and is their funniest live action appearances since Cannibal: The Musical.

This film has a timeless appeal, and is one of my all-time favourites.

It is a story filled with twists and turns, and some moments of real suspense - all interspersed with light humour and romance.

Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn play the main characters in the film, and have a wonderful on-screen chemistry, which makes it all the more enjoyable to watch.

Perhaps the best - and most unexpected - part of the film is its ability to keep you guessing right to the very end.

First things first, Zac Efron is great in the role of Bundy. He plays his role excellently.

I wasn't too sure about watching this movie to be honest, but I actually thought it was a very good movie.

It didn't play up very much to the whole Bundy being 'attractive' etc but did give a very good insight to how 'charming' and persuasive he was.

The ending shows a list of Bundy's known victims and shows footage of the real Bundy. He was clearly a very manipulative and dangerous person.

I highly recommend this movie

This is one of my all time favourite games and actually had a lasting impact on the gaming world as we know it, thanks to fatalities and the introduction of the age ratings.

As a kid what's not to love about this very unique fighting game, controlling what looks like real people, finding the elusive special moves and finally inputting the secret code to humiliate your opponent with a devastating fatality.
