Smoorgan (8 KP) rated The Greatest Showman (2017) in Movies

Catchy (3 more)
Well chosen actors
Easy to emote with
Beautifully put together.
Incredible.
I personally love The Greatest Showman. Both the Audio tracks and the film itself. I feel the story flows well, though I did have to watch it twice to be able to fully understand every detail. But again for me that’s adds to it being a great film, as you can’t just watch it once. It catches you in a somewhat emotional manner, especially if you as a viewer, feel even remotely like an outcast. And if in that case, it becomes an emotional and strongly empowering piece. Hugh Jackman plays The Greatest Showman extremely well, which helps the entire film come together. He brings a warmth and maturity to the film that I doubt many other actors could. In Conclusion.. An absolutely incredible film with perfectly chosen actors/actresses and songs/singers.

Lindsay (1717 KP) rated Max and Dax Meet in Books
Sep 13, 2019
If you or someone in your family meets someone new it can be a bit scary at first. Well this book called “Max and Dax Meet” is similar to that. For Max is nervous to meet his Aunt new member of the family. If you introduce the person or animals to the person or animal and see how things go.
Things may just turn out well for them and the animal or people being introduced. Who to say. In this book See what happen when Max meets Dax? Will they get along? Dax seem like he want to get to know Max but will it work out?
The pictures are done well. I really like that. The story is understandable. It easy to read. The pictures kind of tell the story and pleasant to look at. Good for young readers and children. It even got some lesson in the book about children and animals.

ClareR (5674 KP) rated Locke & Key, Vol. 1: Welcome to Lovecraft in Books
Apr 11, 2018
I keep telling myself not to get involved with another comic series. This book (and the next in the series) is the result of taking my children to the library to while away a wet day during the Easter holiday. I thoroughly enjoyed it, too. It dives straight in to the action from page one. Bits are rather blood thirsty, and it does bend reality (he's his fathers son, and probably fed up with being compared to him as well, but there it is!). It's all about keys and somebody, who isn't particularly nice, wanting to get their hands on them. I don't want to say anything else! All I will say, is that it's well worth giving it a chance.
Emma (519 KP) rated Lincoln in the Bardo in Books
May 28, 2019
This book was sent to me as a Christmas present by my brother. When i first started reading it, it took.me two attempts to read the first chapter to find my flow with the writing style, as it wasn't written like any book I had ever read before. It is written more like a play or a collection of thoughts by various speakers. That being said I thoroughly enjoyed it, and found it is the type of book you keep going back to. The story flows very well and at time it is so descriptive you feel the anguish Mr Lincoln must have been feeling at the time of losing his son.
David McK (3369 KP) rated Reaper Man (Discworld, #11; Death, #2) in Books
Jan 28, 2019
Death is missing, presumed ... errrr .... gone, and that leads to the sort of chaos you always get when an important public service is withdrawn.
So reads the blurb on the back of the edition I read, with this being the novel where Death himself starts to really live, to come alive, as it were, when he is forced to (temporarily) retire from his position:
'Death has to happen. Tha'ts what bein' alive is all about. You're alive, and then you're dead. It can't just stop happening.'
This is also the book to introduce the Death of Rats (SQUEEK), as well as the Auditors of reality, both of whom will go on to appear and have larger roles in later books as well.

Pretty Good
As I'm a fan of the original Hellboy movies I was skeptical to watch this one. That being said this one did a good job of entertaining. Plenty of interesting(new)characters, the performances were well done and the cinematography was too. The story, while entertaining, was a little weaker than the other movies. Mostly because I thought it was a little cheap trying to tie in Excalibur, but, overall this was still a very fun movie ti watch. I think I enjoyed the "surrounding" characters from the other movies better, these ones played their plays well. I'd recommend this indee for a family movie night(unless you don't like a little gore sprinkled in here and there). Worth a watch!
