After Movie Talk

So I recently watched this movie and with this month's post only being book related I can see why a movie review in the middle of all this is going to be a little confusing. Part of the reason I'm review this is because it is based off a book. haha see I worked in the book aspect. This was a great movie. And since I have never read the book this is an unbiased opinion of this movie.

I have seen reviews for the movie now that I have seen the movie not once but twice. I do get that this movie is probably leaving out a great amount of detail when it comes to the book but what movie that's based off a book doesn't hold every detail or word written. Does it suck that this is the case? It does but what can you do. Books would be amazing as a tv series depending on the book but if it requires a movie then that's the route to go.

I did plenty of background on all of the actors and actresses in this movie and they are all new faces. Some of them have been in the limelight before but for the most part all new with only a few items under each of their belts in credits. I enjoy when a movie finds new faces. Some of our current actors and actresses would not have really fit the bill for the characters. No I know nothing about the characters written in the book but seeing characters brought to the screen I think these were perfect choices.

The story is a basic trope starting with a love triangle. The story seems to move pretty fast the run time for this movie is only 113 minutes. As I stated this story does move fairly quickly and in some instances when I watched I was a bit confused as to where we were in the story but then caught up pretty quickly. It was a matter of I looked down for a second away from the television.

This movie was wonderfully told and I'm really looking forward to the sequel. The sequel does not have a release date yet. However, I have discovered in a bit of research that the movie has already been filmed and is in post-production. I for one hope to get my hands on the book and read it soon and be able to give a comparison of the movie and the book by the end of next year. We are so close to the end of the year I don't want to put that on my plate at the moment. However, I really hope that if you haven't watched the film you watch it but remember if you've read the book forget everything you know.

The week of The Reckoning has begun. And senior students have been tasked with making the freshmen's lives pure hell as they prepare to take their fateful assessment. With the Lunar Eclipse on the horizon, Tory and Darcy have more to worry about than just passing their exams. A dark plot is unfolding and the shadows are drawing closer... My Opinion: I have to be really honest I got burned out by the time that I finished this book. I think that is because I read the first three of these in less than a week. I'm pretty sure I read these over the course of four days. By the end of this their orders have emerged. It's amazing honestly. However, the grudge that the girls h...

365 Movie

365 Days Movie Review I have to start off with saying that this movie does have English and Polish spoken throughout the movie. If that is not something you yourself think you will like this movie is not for you. This movie does have triggering themes. Please check your triggers. However, one trigger is kidnapping because our main female character is in face kidnapped. We also have mafia themes included with this as well. So let's talk about how Lara is not exactly in the best relationship to begin with. It sucks her boyfriend in my opinion is an asshole who just likes the fact that he's got some amazing arm candy. That's what it feels like he is doing because when she is trying to engage him in activity he reminds her about her 'poor' heart. Yes, she does have a heart condition but adult activities should not bother it that badly. What are you hiding Martin? Hmmm We then find them leaving for Italy the next morning. They get to the hotel and they are drinking outsi...

Two Long Years

 It's been two long years since my last post and I'd love to say that I remember this blog like it was meant to be but that would mean that I have been thinking about it every day since that last post and I just can't say that. In two years though I've read a little over a hundred books. Reading took a back seat. But since my last post was in January of 2022 I can say that it's been a rough time. What was supposed to be a breeze has not been. We've been dealing with bullying teachers. Dual enrollment. Marching Band. Bullying from peers. It's been a long two nearly three years. I'll do a short reintroduction to me in my next post. Whenever that may be. Stick with me and maybe we'll see how long I can remember to post. <3 Annie
