Twisty turny mystery thriller about a quartet of stage magicians, who use their skills and talents to perform a trio of impressive and highly publicised crimes (robbing a bank, draining the account of corrupt individuals etc and redistributing their targets wealth), all the time being chased by both an FBI agent and a magician debunker (ummm ... two separate people, just to be clear).

It's flashy stuff, with little in the way of substance, however, and an ending you can see coming from about a 1/3rd of the way through.

Still might watch the sequel, though!

Martyr ( John Shakespeare book 1)
By Rory Clements
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️


This ingenious debut introduces John Shakespeare, Elizabethan England's most remarkable investigator, in a tale of conspiracy and murder that succeeds brilliantly as both historical fiction and crime thriller.

This is one of my favourite eras to read! I really enjoyed this book it was full of murder and intrigue in a very dark time especially if you were religious and on the wrong side. It’s definitely a book I recommend if you like historical fiction. It has some very interesting characters along the way.

Thought I figured it out halfway through. Then came the twists

Very slick and stylish psychological thriller!
Any time Edgar Wright is at the helm, you know you're in for a treat, and this film is no exception! Slick and stylish visuals, an intriguing story, and excellent acting from the leads. If you're a horror fan, you'll love it! If you're an Edgar Wright fan, you'll love it. Honestly, check it out either way. You'll be glad you did!

There some moments of The Reef that are genuinely chilling, and plenty of tension is seved to go with them. Decent performances from the cast make the whole process believable, and the filmmakers do a good job of making the ocean feel vast and terrifying, whilst weirdly claustrophobic. It does suffer somewhat from repetition - The one dude that aggressively slaps his goggled face under the ocean surface every 2 minutes to check for the shark for instance - it's a neat trick that gets old pretty quickly. Overall though, The Reef has enough going for it to make it a perfectly watchable shark thriller.
