Contains spoilers, click to show

Dream
Majority of the songs are good, but I did expect more from this album..
Mixture of songs, ones like 'Gold' I absolutely love but others were a bit of a miss for me. Definitely won't make as big of an impact as 'Radioactive' or 'It's Time' but I still liked the album as a whole, usually let the album shuffle through songs while I'm working

I think this book was great !
The main characters are sweet, they have to deal with real life problems (which would be good conversation starters) and they have hearts to save all different types of animals! I would definitely recommend reading it for middle school grade kids because of the length.

This was a good film (except for the scenes I couldn't see that included a certain wrestler.)
The Transformer movies have steadily slid into convoluted messes of CGI and plot holes. So, heading into this one I didn't know what to expect. This still had the robot fighting action you expect but seemed to take a step back from the other films and focus on a well-written story. Hailee Steinfeld is good in her role. She along with the ET-esque Bumblebee carry the heart of the film and force the audience to care about the "Robots in Disguise," something earlier films in the series seemed to have forgotten about. John Cena is also decent in his role. Overall, it's a cute and fun story of loss and rising from the ashes of that loss to return to life again. In my opinion the best one in the series.

Lots of fun
I remember watching this as a child at the cinema when it was first released (I was 11), and absolutely loved it. And to be honest watching it again now, i still think it's a huge amount of fun.
This is like the antidote to Toy Story. Yes there are good toys in this, but the stars of this film are the rather nasty Commando Elite led by Chip Hazard, voiced perfectly by the wonderful Tommy Lee Jones. The idea of toys playing out real life war games against other toys (and humans) makes for such a fun and entertaining film. It's not scary but not entirely child friendly either, and is really quite funny at times. And unusually for a kids film made in the 90s, the script isn't completely terrible or cheesy. The special effects are for the most part fairly decent and the cast too (both voice and real life) are all very good. Considering this is made by Joe Dante who brought us both Gremlins films, it's no surprise really it's such a fun film and yet strangely underrated.

Dark, Disturbing and Definitely wort watching
I started watching this after finding it on Netflix after i had finished all three seasons of Narcos. At first i was a little unsure as i dont usually watch foreign TV programmes. After the first episode i was hooked and intrigued. Its a dark story about the life of Joaquin 'el chapo' guzman. It shows his life from his upbringing and how he rose to be one of the most notorious and feared narcotics traffickers in Mexico. It shows how he rose from a simple drug dealer to a drug lord and how he took control over the drug cartels of Mexico. We also see a lot of the political backdrop of Mexico and how it changed over his life and how Mexico has developed.
