Tobin Bell recommended The Descent (2005) in Movies (curated)

"The Descent, which was the film about the women spelunkers who go down into a cave. What I liked about that was the fact that you spent the first half hour of the film developing the characters. You cared about the people. By the time they went into the cave, you were involved. I thought that was very smart, and I loved that a horror film didn’t go right to the scares but made you care about the characters and their relationships with one another. The Descent was very well made, I thought, on a relatively low budget."

Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Inhale, Exhale in Books

This started off quite good, then the love triangle aspect was introduced and I loved Grant, he was a hot geek, while Christian came across as some sort of loser boyfriend who occasionally had a nicer, softer, side.

Then it progressed some in the triangledom of relationships and I got a little giddy... And then it all started to go downhill for me from after the sex.

The storyline just got a little too ridiculous for me, and I started skipping pages, just skimming others...

Therefore I'm afraid it's getting a two star. Not for me at all, sorry.

Haven't Seen Another Like It

I wouldnt say it was love at first sight but once the show gets going I couldn't bring myself to look away. It takes one or two episodes to really start up as the show starts to establish the multiple relationships and backstory for each of the characters. However once it gets started it's hard to look away, from the growingly good music throughout the show to the development clearly outlined throughout all of the characters, brings together for a wonderful show.

Too much pressure on the romance

The first books were wonderful, like a YA night circus. However as the story progressed everything revolved around romamce, some of these 'relationships' were bordering abusive and controlling, but because everyone loves a rouge, we were supposed to forgive it. A great concept, fates trapped in cards, a carnival game that could grant your every desire, kingdoms in peril, but the story should have focused more on the sisters relationship, rather than the romance side.
