It has gotten too political. (0 more)
I have a love/hate relationship with Facebook, I love the videos and random funny stuff that people post. As well as being able to keep up with family and friends I can't visit as much as I'd like to. But all the political ranting and name-calling is getting so old I sometimes find it hard to even look at the app on my phone.

Gameplay
Good, but not exactly original.
A well made but dull addition to the Tomb Raider franchise.

The game itself is well made, but it has lost the charm of the original games. The game, like the first in the prequel trilogy, boasts its "free-roam" option, which doesn't really add much to the game or the story.

There's also very little in the way of tomb raiding, with tombs being fun challenges reminiscent of the original puzzles, but feeling like little more than an afterthought as something they should probably put in.

The Vamps - Night and Day album review
This album, being the third album created by British boyband - The Vamps, is such an amazing album with relaxing music as well as amazing upbeat tunes to enjoy. If you're looking for new pop music, this album is highly reccomended to you, especially to teenagers.

"I’m a huge fan of Nagisa Oshima, and Empire of Passion and Violence at Noon are two of my favorites of his that Criterion has released. They give a good example of both his shifting stylistic capabilities as well as his consistently provocative and trenchant thematic tendencies. While both these films deal with elements of sexual obsession, predation, and social hegemony, on the surface they are totally distinct, Empire being a gorgeous, classically styled ghost story and Violence at Noon being a fractured, modernist New Wave masterpiece."

Essential for film fans
Well for a big film fan this is essential really. Whether it's film reviews, building a watch list, doing your own ratings or lists, as well as researching films and actors this is the main app for you. Glad they are adding more TV programmes and started to add video games as well. The more like this list is great as well.
The only minor downside is the pop up ads and not being able to edit your own custom lists on the app, you need the desktop site for that? Otherwise it's perfect.

Modern Retro TV
I loved this retelling of the Who Wants To Be A Millionaire coughing scandal, the acting was superb, Sheen did a fantastic job as Tarrant. The story is well told without ultimately giving you an answer. It has an amazing retro feel and I thought I remember this so clearly but when you look back so much if forgotten. Well done ITV for also being able to have a bit of a laugh at themselves!

Average Slasher
Available on Amazon Prime at present. Starts fairly well as some partying on campus gets a bit out of hand. After this though the films trundles along in first gear and takes quite a well to get to the first kill.
Tries to be more modern with the use of text messages and phone displays being shown on screen. Overall though it barely gets going before it's all over. One more for Slasher fans.
