Movie Rating Watch
The second of the four films based on Suzanne Collins 'Hunger Games', which picks up not that long from the end of the previous movie and sees Jennifer Lawrence's Katnissn Everdeen suffering from PTSD as a result of her victory in the 74th annual 'Hunger Games', in which she and the other tributes had to fight to the death for the amusement of the Capitol.

Sent on an anniversary tour by President Snow, she and co-winner Peeta witness revolution brewing in the District's, before they are forced back into the arena once more for a 'quarter quell', where the tributes are all picked from previous winners of the Games.

As the middle part of a trilogy, this is a little bit on the slower side, more concerned with building the world and in linking the start and the finale together. Basically, an Act 2 of 3.

Less shaky cam this time around, though, replaced with wider sweeping shots!

⭐️⭐️⭐️

The serial killer thriller that took Europe by storm.

At 11 years old, Gabriel Naumann is witness to a horrific crime. Twenty-nine years later his girlfriend is taken. Then the messages begin. 'If you want to find her, then you'll have to find me.'

Somebody knows the truth. Somebody knows what he did. And now his girlfriend will pay for it - unless he can find her in time. When you've spent decades running from your past, what do you do when it finally catches up with you?

This was an enticing cover!

I was told how gory and scary this book was and I was kinda expecting more! It was a good read but just that a good read. When I’m told to expect gore and horror then I want it to hit me in the face and this didn’t. The story was ok and well told but yea I wanted so much more!

Foreign detective's in Paris
At the time of its announcement I was very sceptical and was 50/50 upon its release.

Plot - Inspector Lee and LAPD detective James Carter travel to Paris to protect a French witness from the attacks of the Chinese triads. The two battle it out against the world's most deadly criminals.



The threequel received very mixed reviews from both critics and movie goers.
Although not the worst movie ever and was still packed with its usual high octane and action packed movie scenes and fight sequences, the plot itself felt recycled which was a shame as a new setting was a great idea but wasn't enough to carry it.

Still a fun film to watch that sits nicely with its predecessors, a forth installment is said to be in the works, so with any luck we may have some of that 90s magic back.. Even if its for one last run.
