The amount of Jack Jack was amazing!! I love the focus on Elasti-Girl and the Incribile. The single dad aspect was so funny and I enjoyed seeing Edna Mode again and Jack Jack mimic her. (0 more)

I could’ve done without the use of the words Damn and Hell in a movie I took my 4 year old to. I also really didn’t appreciate the use of Oh my God in the movie. (0 more)

So, so good. Better than the 1st

Such a great movie!! I would absolutely pay to see this movie a second time and will pre-order this one. My little girl asked to see it again before we left the theater.

Totally agree with that little bit of language. I was pretty surprised.

Book Rating

So first off I just want to put out there that I'm deducting a star from my rating for the repeated and completely unnecessary usage of ableist slurs through out this book. There is no excuse for ret*rd to be used as almost every insult in a book, or being used multiple times on a single page. Putting that aside the book was just okay. The characters were very one note and had little to no development. The plot was predictable. It felt like someone was holding my hand down the most likely path possible. Overall I just don't think I gained anything from reading this other than some annoyance at its use of language.

Ridiculous plot (0 more)

Well....

This is the second worst Jurassic Park movie in the franchise. The plot was ludicrous. I get that you can only do so much with dinosaurs being alive in the modern world, but seriously, this movie was ridiculous. There was a tragic scene that pulled at the heartstrings, and two new characters that brought some good comedy, but overall this movie should have gone straight to Netflix. The plot "twist" (who didn't see it coming?) was so unnecessary and added nothing to the movie except to explain a single moment of decision at the end. I pray that this is the last in the franchise because honestly, they have run out of ideas.

If you enjoy psychological drama, add this to your reading list. This happens to be Sam Hepburn's debut in this genre after much success writing young adult thrillers. This is an examination of how far someone would go to create a perfect life. Juliet, a single-mum struggling to pay her bills and earn a living and Gracie, television darling and star of her own 'Cooking with Gracie'. Their paths cross and the women strike up an unlikely friendship, but things are not quite as they seem. This is a gripping narrative that keeps you guessing right up to the last chapter. Hepburn has given the reader plenty to think about, this is a bestseller for good reason.

Almost wholly inept British sci-fi B-movie. Aliens abduct a shed containing two astronomers, their secretary, an accountant, and the institute's tea lady in order to secure their help in repelling an attack on the Earth.

Starts slow, is dull in the middle, gets very silly towards the end (it's the kind of movie which seems to assume that the audience for SF films is made up of very young children and congenital idiots). Production values and special effects manage to be even worse than you'd expect, but deserves such a low score mainly because it doesn't contain a single interesting or original idea. Every bit as poor as its reputation would suggest.
