Movie Rating Watch

Yet another Keira Knightley costume drama about well-brought-up people grappling with their repressed emotions. This one is set in post-war Germany where KK is an army wife reunited with her officer husband (Jason Clarke doing an English accent), but she ends up knocking off the German widower (Alexander Skarsgard) whose house they have commandeered.

Decent production values but the performances aren't good enough to lift a story which feels trite, hackneyed and inconsequential. No sense of passion or danger, hard to care about anyone or anything in the movie; it's just incredibly dull and predictable.

Not a great game by modern standards

This game has flaws, but it's a very simple game that was a lot of fun in it's time. I recently found a copy at a flea market and grabbed it for the memories... That said I still haven't pulled it out to play it. I'd be interested to see if it's still the same fun I had when I was a kid. Or if it just doesn't hold up. my guess is both.

Cody Cook (8 KP) rated Superman: Grounded, Vol. 2 in Books

Jun 29, 2018

Some reviewers said that this second volume of the Grounded story (which JMS was less directly involved with) was much better than the first. I disagree. Volume 2 is less consistent and seems unsure of what story it wants to tell, perhaps because of fan backlash over earlier issues in this story arc (contained in Volume 1) that focused more heavily on Superman getting back in touch with his core values by underplaying his powers to connect with regular people.

This collection is good, but the former was more provocative, morally challenging, and even inspiring at times.

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.
