Decent Crime Thriller
Another team up between Mark Wahlberg and director Peter Berg. Although not as good as the previous films they did together including @Mile 22 (2018) and @Patriots Day (2016) it is still fairly entertaining with some action scenes. A former cop who is now an ex-con investigates the murder of two cops he knew. It's not got as much humour as I thought it would have but the story was good enough to keep you interested.

Moth to a Flame
The Mothman Prophecies- Supernatural thriller focusing on a journalist whose wife experienced a strange moth-like vision immediately before she was killed in a car accident. Two years later, driving to an interview, he suddenly finds himself hundreds of miles out of his way in the remote town of Point Pleasant, where there has been a proliferation of `mothman' sightings. His research concludes that the visions are omens of disaster.

Richard Gere is really good in it.

Highly recorded it.

Life After Death
After.Life- is a decent horror thriller. I have pros and cons of this film.

Pros:
Liam Nesson
Christina Ricci
The Plot/story
The suspense

Cons:
Just Long
Not Really Scary
Not Really horrorfying
Just forgetable

The plot: After a horrific car crash, a young teacher awakes on a mortuary slab. The funeral director convinces her she is not alive but transitioning into the spirit world. Is he telling the truth?

Like i said its decent but forgetable.

Unsettling Thriller
What a tense read!! From the moment the situation becomes apparent a creeping feeling of unease is ever-present, I did not relax while reading this book.

When faced with the unimaginable horror of discovering their child was swapped at birth Pete and Maddie have to question everything, while dealing with a new family so suddenly entangled in theirs.

I loved the growing tension and unease I felt reading this book.

Many thanks to NetGalley, the author, and publisher for the copy of this book.

"I still think this may be the most nerve-racking film I’ve ever seen. It blows away modern action thrillers, doing so much more with so much less. No big effects, no CGI. Just a few desperate men, a few old trucks, a bumpy old road, and tons of explosives. Add in a political consciousness that was sharp enough it was censored out of early U.S. cuts, and a sense of irony that raises this beyond “entertainment,” and you have a thriller unlike anything before or since."
