Early gung ho Keanu movie that is not ageing well at all, the premise is a clever twist on the usual disaster movies and Dennis Hopper is always great at playing his usual antagonistic role.
Sandra Bullock rounds off the cast with Jeff Daniel's in very much a supporting role.. a non essential 80s flick.

Representation goes higher, further, faster!
Contains spoilers, click to show
Captain Marvel wasn't the best Marvel movie to date, but was one of the better ones. Brie Larson was fantastic as Carol Danvers. She very well portrayed a woman who was told to suppress her emotions her entire life to fit within a patriarchal society. The big twist being that she didn't have to prove anything to the men in her life to be the strong powerful woman that she is. Probably does more for representation of women than WonderWoman. The Skrull also teach us that we cannot demonize sentients before understanding them. Excelltent! 9/10

Good storyline, good twist, mediocre cgi
So, as much as I loved watching this film and found myself enthralled into the story behind it. I found the visual effects somewhat lacking. Not reaching a high enough expectation for this kind of movie.
A movie based preliminarily around virtual reality the visual effects should be muh better and it is let down by this. That being said, the twists in the story and the way the characters are brought together. Brought this was very intuitive and clever. It showed good dynamic and gave the watcher someone to root for.

LitRPG done right, with an interesting twist
LitRPG is a hard genre to break out into. That being said, Travis Bagwell has done an EXCELLENT job creating believable characters in a fascinating world. Personally, I felt that this was a great twist on the usual LitRPG--because the main character, Jason, discovers that villains aren't all what they seem.

I love a musical, and a I love a non-predictable plot twist. Thank you Emma for being such an amazing actress playing an aspiring amazing actress and thank you Mr. Gosling for just being a beautiful specimen. Neither of them have stellar voices, but what the lacked in lungs, they made up for in timing, comedy, and chemistry.

A great read for young adults!!
While this may drag in some places for adults, this is a great book for young adults. It’s very popular in our high school library. The students love following a modern day twist to the original Wizard of Oz. So popular we have a hard time keeping it on the shelf.

You are dead you go home
A very sad look into a group of kids who think imaginary war is really that fun to play. The movie shows us what influance movies,tv,hstory all play in a kids mind and how they can take that information and really twist it. Sometimes friendship means nothing when war is declared.
