Amazing Story and Gameplay
Combines amazing storytelling with amazing gameplay. I loved everything about this game because they got it right. They created a great world with fantastic characters. Just running around doing side quests showed how beautiful the various areas in the game are. It is so much fun to play and I love that there was so much diversity in the game and that it showed strong, smart women in leading roles.

Not everything about The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part (2019) is awesome but, as the movie itself is at pains to point out, that's okay too.
The metatextual flourish that crowned the first movie becomes something of a distracting liability this time around, as you find yourself constantly trying to read the ongoing adventures for their real-world subtext. Thankfully it’s pretty artfully done with the developments of Bricksburg’s population neatly mimicking the early teenage obsessions of darkness and angst in storytelling...

Hmmm, not sure how to explain this one. Feels a bit hit or miss in the storytelling as parts of the story bored me. The story just dragged on and on. With the whole door of one night conquests and then all of a sudden with the mom getting sick. This title became one of my few did not finish at some points, really hard to read as I found the main mc really winy. The only good part was what happened at the end.

Great Gameplay
Superb Storytelling
Challenging Choices
Above and Below perfected, Ryan Laukat is a genius...
I admit that I love exploration games, going into and delving into the great unknown. And the stories created and tension of if you have enough to defeat on coming challenges, yet you still have to work around the rest of the world and keep your engine going. You have to keep up with everything and keep balanced. If you like Above and Below this one is better and slightly different, but both are amazing games.

Fun piece of cinema
I had heard about this film from other and the internet, so I spent some Best Buy reward Bucks and gave it a shot.

Certainly interesting and fun storytelling with a lot of Hunger Games thrown in. Nothing like a bunch of teenagers trying to kill each other on a deserted island to keep me entertained for two hours.


Not too much of a point, but if you are just looking for amusing entertainment, you can certainly do a lot worse than this.
