Movie Review: Demolition Man
Demolition Man was released in 1993 and was the highlight of my younger years. I recently re-watched it to see if it was as joy-joy as I remembered. Mellow Greetings! I first saw this movie when I was a wee lass of 10 years in 1993 (my father didn’t believe in movie ratings) and it…
Book Review: Polaris Rising
This is a recent review that was written for a publication (not published) and therefore the tone is more ‘professional’ – i.e. not my usual sweary style. Debut author Jessie Mihalik blasts into the scene with this fast-paced, action-packed science fiction novel that covers everything from love, honour, betrayal and dubious government politics. From the…
TV Review: Titans
The last few years have been pretty saturated by superhero fare. I’m a sucker for the epic adventure with life or death stakes story, so the superhero thing does fill that particular void. However, with twenty bajillion movies and Netflix series, it is starting to get a bit stale. How many cataclysmic, potentially world ending…
Book Review: The Slap
This is another oldie that I pulled from my archives for content. This is another I was forced to read for my undergraduate degree. Fair warning, I really, really hated this book and this review is full of swears. Tonight I am going to review The Slap by Christos Tsiolkas. This was required reading for…
Book Review: Orpheus Lost
Another oldie that I have pillaged for content. This ‘gem’ I had to read as part of my undergraduate arts degree, and boy, did I fucking hate it. But not as much as I hated The Slap. Here’s another one I had to read for my English degree. You wouldn’t know I almost qualify for…
Book Review: Bridget Jones – Mad About The Boy
This is another old review that I have pillaged for content. This was January 2014, and Bridget Jones was my Christmas read. I finally got a chance to finish the latest installment of Bridget Jones. . I’ve read a lot of other reviews and I went in preparing to loathe it. I didn’t. I honestly…
Book & Movie Review: Gone Girl
This is an older review from 2014 that I have pillaged for content. If you haven’t heard of Gone Girl, you’ve been living under a rock. I also intend on making this post about as full of spoilers as you can get, so bugger off if you’re still under the rock and are comfy there.…
Just What Are You Doing?
Hey guys and gals! If you’ve been hanging around me for a while, you know that I have been writing my opinions on stuff for quite some time, sometimes not in the most organised, legible or even polite ways. These opinions are scattered all over the place. I have a terrible habit of getting caught…
