Charlie (37 KP) rated Stranger Things in TV

Fun characters and great acting (1 more)
Interesting plot
One of my favourite shows
This show is always an instant watch when each season comes out. I did start watching it for the story but now it's mainly the characters. It knows how to mix tension and horror with awkward teenager moments as well as tell an interesting mystery.
My only complaint is that the second and third seasons aren't as strong as the first, some beats are missed but even then, it's still an awesome show.

Looks like meat's back on the menu boys
I love Lord of the rings for many reasons. It has great characters, tension and story. It has beautiful descriptions that help your imagination bloom. It has whole new languages. It has everything you need in a classic fantasy. The only drawback is the that it ends after a long read and you wish it continue. Overall it is one of the best fantasy books I've ever read and it set the tone for many since then. Top job Tolkien.

Absolutely gripping and a great start to what I imagine is going to be an excellent new detective series and with a narrator that absolutely nailed it!
Excellent story, gripping plot, brilliant characters, perfect setting, a pace that is spot on with oodles of tension and a narrator that only adds to the suspense.
Definitely recommended and I very much look forward to following this series and thank you to Bookouture Audio and NetGalley for enabling me to listen to and share my thoughts of The Girls on Chalk Hill.

This was a frustrating, yet very enjoyable read. I kept asking myself why on Earth these women were going on such a technical walk on their own. But let’s face it - this was all a huge part of the tension. Would they survive? I mean, everything is against them: from their lack of experience, to the weather.
I really think they should have stuck to their original plan of a beach holiday.
But boy did I enjoy this! The twists and turns made for an addictive, unputdownable read!

Andy K (10823 KP) rated Revenge of the Creature (1955) in Movies
Sep 22, 2019
I'm seeing some Spielbergisms in these movies so far as it seems like he must've used some ideas or themes when starting out like in Jaws. Once you show the monster, it's hard to put jack back in the box.
Unlike the original film, you see too much of the creature right away to build tension or think of him as menacing. This time around different scientists go back to the lagoon and capture the creature and bring him back to civilization. His new home is a large public aquarium where he instantly becomes the new star attraction. While chained to the tank floor he wows the spectators, defends himself against the nosy scientists and attempts escape. This sequence also felt like the 3rd act of The Lost World where the dinosaurs made it to land and terrorized the suburbs.
He eventually escapes and follows the main scientist and his girlfriend whilst they try and have a romantic time out to sea together. The last half of the film feels like you are watching From Here To Eternity with an occasional creature showing up every once in a while.
The tension just wasn't there in this one. A disappointment,
