Very predictable twist and ending (2 more)
Not a great deal of Shark scenes
Noticeable poor script
Lacking bite
I thought I'd give this a go as I quite like Shark films. This was a disappointment, every jump scene you can see coming a mile away. The apparent twist is sign posted early on. One that will mainly annoy the majority I think given the reaction in the cinema. @The Shallows (2016) was a much better Shark thriller.

Blair Waste Product
Possibly the worst film I have ever seen.
If you are thinking of watching this film try this instead:
Buy a tin of paint.
Pour it on the floor.
Watch it dry.
A lot more intersting and a hell of a lot less irritating.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2379 KP) rated Last Writes (A Jaine Austen Mystery, #2) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Jaine is sure her ship has come in when her friend gets her a job writing a spec script for a sitcom. However, when the star is killed, Jaine finds her dream job turned into a nightmare. The book is very funny and the mystery is great. Plus it introduces the sub-plot involving Jaine's parents.

Great political film
If even half of this film is true, what a remarkable move by John McCain picking Sarah Palin as his running mate in the 2008 US Presidential election.
The performances all around were amazing and the script is really the star. I don't usually like to bring up my political views, so I will just say the political tension and drama in this film make it worth watching on their own.

Jaws in aisle 3
I had heard about this a while back as it was made in 2012. Expecting it to be a very bad low budget B movie. It's not as bad as Sharknado thankfully. It still suffers from some bad acting, script and dodgy CGI. If you don't mind the silly low budget, bargain bin films you might find this OK. You're not missing much if you don't take the bait...

Sis holmes
I love millie brown on stranger things I know she can act. But the script felt like enola should carry the show and just forget about sherlock holmes. Henry cavill played a good sherlock for a short time. I didn't feel like it was equal. Enola felt like sherlock didn't understand didn't give him a chance

Best story of the season boxset for dalek story this one is very dark in tone dealing In death and canballlism but it works the humor it gives davros a chance to shine make more of the villain of the piece font get wrong dakeks are still there doing what they do best but this more about davros and less about them. Brilliant script great cast great direction everything about it perfect
