Dork_knight74 (881 KP) rated Shimmer Lake (2017) in Movies
Aug 2, 2018 (Updated Aug 2, 2018)
This is a Netflix original "dark comedy" crime drama. The acting was good and the cinematography was too. It's a small town crime story involving a group of people that grew up together and knew each other well. It's told in a backwards style so the events happening are shown in reverse order. The story unfolds quite well and keeps your interest the whole time. It has a few laughs and a pretty good twist to the end that isn't too predictable. I liked this movie overall. Nothing too graphic for kids either. Worth a watch!

Interesting twist on the origins (1 more)
Good stoty
Deviated quite a bit from the comic origins (1 more)
Not up to the high standard we’ve come to enjoy from Marvel shows
Hit&miss
Contains spoilers, click to show
Okay so they avoided the fact that Cloak & Dagger got powers from bad drugs... shame as it would’ve finally left the door open for Sentry.
The story itself wasn’t that bad. Quite a few good twists, a couple of bad guys you’ll love to hate (not quite to Joffery’s level).
Just didn’t have the same kick as Netflix gives its Marvel series... that said, I did enjoy it...

I couldn’t put this book down. From the first page I was captivated. Bought it to take on holiday and had finished it by the morning of the second day. Everything about this book was interesting and entertaining.
It kept you guessing about who some characters were in terms of their Norse gods but that was just part of the fun of it. Brilliant twist at the end that I didn’t see coming until just before.
Shadow’s character kept you wanting more for him, and kept you hoping things would work out in his favour. Can’t wait to pick up the sequel!

Futuristic scenario
Amazing plot with a twist
It is NOT child friendly (1 more)
Sex scenes
This tv show keeps you very intertained. It throws your emotions all over the place from being extremely happy to mad or sad in an instant. You wont want to stop watching. It is a mixture of old values being brought forth and conformity. I do not recommend people who have PTSD with rape involved because it might trigger something. The Sex scenes don't show much as well as very little nudity. Overall I do recommend this tv show.

Fun and informative
This app allows you to check how big you baby is according to fruit (everyone does fruit) animals (a little more unusual) and sweets (who doesn't want to compare their baby to sweets )
Every day an article is uploaded which relates to where you are in pregnancy.
Articles are written by a variety of people
The app also allows you to save articles, make notes and keep track of things like your weight.
It may not be the most comprehensive app out there but I’m enjoying what it has to offer.

An interesting movie with a decent twist
So we started this movie as all movies, bright eyed and bushy tailed, ready to be scared. It's not a scary movie, there are some 'woh, what the hell?' moments, but that was it. It kept your interest, and there was 1 shocking scene that I wont spoil. On the whole the movie was pretty decent, after all was said and done it's not a movie I would rewatch, but it was good for the moment.

Dirty Rotten Scoundrel
Only saw a trailer for this last week and with 2 such great lead actors in the main roles thought I'd check it. It's a decent thriller as a con and scam artist thinks he can con a woman out of her fortune.
There's a decent back story to be told about our characters that you wouldn't have guessed. Although overall the film pans out as you probably would expect it to. Enjoy it for 2 great leads in the same film, especially with McKellen in a very different role for him.

Sara Cox (1845 KP) rated Coco (2017) in Movies

What a beautifully heart wrenching film. I feel that this wasn't advertised nearly as much as other Disney films as it managed to slip under my radar. I thought the outcome of the film was going to be pretty obvious, but then bam! Twist and it's something else. Very good! I loved the colours and the stylising of the backgrounds and details. Disney Pixar have always been quite good at this I find. I did not expect the few scenes before the end and I felt like my heart was being pulled out of my chest. Just beautiful!
