A good film, well made, based on a true story. Just a pity there isn't a little more action or tension. The subject might be a tad boring for some and the film is very slowly paced.
  

"Savage Grace reads like a gossipy thriller set in the Hamptons, but this story of the tragic Baekeland family—told through gripping interviews with some of the grandest names in New York society—is all devastatingly true."

Weak
This one was not good. The acting and cinematography was ok. The story was weak. Supposedly based on true case, this from their was slow and boring. The plot was very predictable. Not worth a watch.

I really enjoyed this book!! I liked how each chapter was a different person's story and I loved how we found out how they were all connected to each other. This was a true multi-generational novel. It was very well-written and each chapter told its own independent story. Would definitely recommend to others!!

Story is true to the show
Very cute candy crush like game
I have never liked a matching game before this one. It has a cute story, easy to use game feature, and development as you go. You use stars gotten from matching to clean up their cave and surrounding area. Funny and cute!

Amazing race footage
Great racing film
A film based on a true story of a great rivalry in the F1 championship in the late 70's. The acting is spot on and the recreation of some of the motorsport action is thrilling. A very interesting story well told by director Ron Howard.

Touchdown
A great heartfelt feel-good film based on a true story. Great performances from the lead character and Sandra Bullock adds a touch of charm to her role. Plenty of fun light-hearted moments along the way. A story that will keep your interest to the very end. Nice touch to see the photos of the real people the story is about at the credits!

True story
What started out as a feel good movie has turned into something entirely different. Some may remember the actual story, I do vaguely. Triplets separated at birth, adopted by different families and end up meeting at 19. The following story is so outrageous and hard to believe. Unfortunately, this is the world we live in. Still, a very good and intriguing movie. Not quite finished yet....
