Lenard (726 KP) rated Beast (2017) in Movies
Nov 30, 2020
One could view this as one of the best Goth romance movies. On a small island, a young winery guide, Moll, meets and falls for the dangerous stranger who may or may not be murdering young women on the island. It is a sexual awakening for the outsider. Moll unearths untold power and strength. Recently, I have been watching a lot of Jessie Buckley performances. I have noticed that she has a huge tic where when she speaks she upturns the right side of her lips. It is far noticeable when she plays American, like in "Fargo" and "I'm Thinking of Ending Things." But she also uses it here to twist herself as she spirals toward an inevitable clash.

Keeps Getting Better
Although I'm not the biggest fan of The Govenor even as a villian, I have a certain appreciation for his skill at lying and manipulation. In this season we find our favorite characters confronted with a whole new set of problems, trying to establish a steady homestead and learning how to live alongside neighbors. Much to say everything goes sideways and then some as war breaks out, not between the living and the dead, but between two struggling parties of survivors. This is a wonderful new twist to an already amazing, established show. My second time watching and I'm still in love with it!

What will be looked at as a poor mans Lock Stock on the surface turns out to be a great twist and turn gangster movie that does have similarities in its direction and style which is always a good thing.
The brit gangster movie has had a bit of a resurgence thanks to Guy Ritchie and Matthew Vaughan and this one stands out in what became a crowded field.
The level of violence is quite high and the list of well known actors is long in this multi layered story and what makes this one stand is the amazing performances especially from Craig and Meaney, however all involved were very good and includes an early look at Tom Hardy.

Lee KM Pallatina (951 KP) rated Jumanji: The Next Level (2019) in Movies

More and less of the same
Jumanji 2 (or 3 depending on how you look at it) continues where the previous instalment left off.
Bored of the way things are one of the teens decides to return to Jumanji....eventually followed by his friends on a rescue mission, followed by two grumpy, senile old men (Danny devito & danny glover) who's characters not only change the the pace of the movie but add a fresh batch of humour.
The movie was quite solid and was much better than I expected although felt like some plot was missing at times. But plenty of entertainment & laughs.

I honestly went back and forth on how to properly rate this book. It was a quick read, but I almost gave up in a couple spots. The beginning was frustrating, with the MC encountering and complaining about problems she obviously put herself in. Then the twists started coming, and every time I thought I had it figured out, another twist hit, down to the literal last page. Did I absolutely love it? Not really. It was fine. Wild towards the end even. I'd probably give the beginning 2/5 stars, the middle 3/5, and the ending 4/5. And that's all I feel I can say without spoilers. 🤣

The ultimate choice
A killer is loose, a killer that makes friends, loved ones, colleagues choose between life or death. The only way out is to make the decision else you both die.
DI Helen Grace is a brilliant character, dark and delicious with lots of intricate problems. I like the jump between different timelines and how they come together at the end.
The reader is kept in the dark till quite near the end and then the pace, which us already fast, ramps up another notch. I really couldnt put it down.
I may need to read some more DI Helen Grace books.
