A strong cast of newer actors lead this reasonably entertaining heist movie that starts off very well and a good element of intrigue, however the more complex it tries to become the more plot holes start to creep in and runs out of steam well before the end credits, shame as it had potential.

I <3 Courtney
This album is incredible. Courtney is a master of both complicated lyrics and simple singing. Her deadpan vocals just chime with me on every level. Sometimes, I feel this album can loose steam around halfway through, but its nothing I can't forgive with such incredible starting tracks. A real forerunner in the world of female lead alternative.

Spies! Spies everywhere!
Playing Codenames is like a stationary Charades. You need to identify your spy team to your team mate, without revealing too much, and before your enemy can identify their agents.
It's easy enough to look at the 25 cards, can pick a single, blindingly-obvious link to several cards.... but are they the cards you need to identify, and will your team mate understand?
By using single code words, and the amount of cards it refers to, it can be a simple game; however it can also be fiendishly difficult and it great fun.
We have played this a few times, and most of the guesses/clues have been for 2 or 3 cards - so "Engine, 3" could refer to parts of an engine, or items with an engine; however, if might be too a stretch if one of the cards is "STEAM", and there are also "MOTOR", "AUTOMOBILE", and "AIRCRAFT". So do I mean things WITH an engine? Things which move? A steam engine is much older than the others, perhaps it's not that; but STEAM ENGINE fits so well, hut I only have 3 choices...
The best single round was my wife and I - "Treasure 5", for the win. After a few minutes, all 5 had been identified, and we won. But dont tell anyone.... there are spies everywhere
