My Bloody Valentine 3-D (2009)
My Bloody Valentine 3-D (2009)
2009 | Horror, Mystery
A pretty average slasher film and definitely based around the 3-D, it uses as many scenes as it can for this effect. I only saw it on DVD but you can just tell what scenes, effects were done for the 3-D parts. Very bloody and gory in places, with a slight twist if you can call it that. Overall pretty good but no doubt more fun in 3-D mode.

I must admit that I didn't think this book would be better than The Forest of Hands and Teeth, but it was so much better!! It starts out even more slow than the first book and takes longer than the first book to get going, but once it does, it's so so good!! I love the plot twist in this concerning Gabry. I am definitely looking forward to the next book in the series =)

As an avid reader of novels I've found myself persistently let down with YA novels and I thought the same of Divergent before I had even read it. I got a sample and downloaded the book and finished it in under ten hours. Couldn't put it down. Very good YA novel and an interesting twist on a dystopia. Don't think I will be judging a book by its cover any time soon again

Emma
Peculiarly alright
I did kinda get over hyped for this book which was probably why I didn't enjoy it as much as I could have.
Didn't expect the Wight thing, we needed more Olive. Emma annoyed me mostly. I did genuinely get a little creeped out by the hallowgasts.
Photos are a unique touch and I thoroughly enjoyed seeing them.
Probably won't read the others though.

I can remember being absolutely shocked and disturbed at this film when I first watched it. I did not see the twist coming at all. It doesn’t have the same impact now obviously but it is still a great film. This would’ve been a ten if there had been a clear motive for his retribution on Mills but I feel that part was hazy, that’s the only bit that spoilt it for me.

clever story, good action (0 more)
Nice twist on the usual action films
A film about a smart mouthed defence lawyer whose wife and daughter are murdered. Its a revenge thriller with a difference. Instead of shouting his mouth off Antonia Banderas vows to remain silent until the killer or killers are brought to justice. No army training or previous fighting experience, just a lawyer wanting revenge. A good supporting cast makes this well worth a watch.

Very good book, makes you want to keep on reading, quite atmospheric and draws the reader into the storyline. The author is also good in making the twist at the end unexpected, although you have an inkling something else is going on and the story starts to go in that direction, the actual culprit is not suspected until the end. If you like old fashioned fairy stories then this is a book for you.

Take any Marvel hero and put him into a romance book and what do you get? A perfect escapist evening with a dark, brooding hero and a woman who has a mind and is not afraid to use it. I loved the twist this book has and it is the first of them that I have read, even though it is the second book in the series. Thoroughly enjoyable and definitely recommended.

Started slow

First half hour is slow but hang in there, This is a Jason Bourne type movie with a neat twist. Its not just a doppelganger its Will Smith in his youthful years. He looks like he just danced off the set of Fresh Prince.
Snore factor 3/10 hang in there its worth it!

I love this musical so much! The songs are well written and well produced. It’s amazing the way they’ve put such a modern twist on a musical based on historical events. I have to say that I prefer the more upbeat songs on the album and usually skip “Heart of Stone” and “I don’t need your love”, but they are still fantastic songs. I can’t wait to go and see the musical next week!
