Sadly, this is not the Scream movie to revive the franchise. Quite the opposite. Scream was the first horror/ slasher movie I ever watched and to see it going this way is disappointing. Too many cliches, too many plot holes, too many unanswered questions, and too many attempts to try and draw it back to the original just to make it appear as a Scream movie. Disappointing.

Assassin's Creed: Valhalla
(2020 Video Game)
A good concept lacking in execution
16 December 2020
I have been waiting for this game all year and I'm sorry to say I'm very disappointed with it. It almost feels as though it's release was very rushed. The game is full of a lot of "nearly" moments. It nearly meets expectations with various features but falls short. Sadly, the combat is not great. Very clunky fighting. I was a huge fan of AC Odyssey and had high hopes for this game. Sadly it falls short.
The worst thing is that there are so many things in this game (raids, battles...) that are so promising but certain things take away from it. The audio during battles is not great. When raiding a village, you expect to hear loud metal clashing, shouting from panicked civilians and war cries. However, the audio during battle scenes is very underwhelming, which detracts from the concept of raiding.
Overall, this was a "nearly" game. With such great concepts and things to do, it "nearly" achieved them, but fell short.
White House Down
(2013)
Not what I was expecting, but enjoyable
8 September 2020
I went into this thinking it was going to be a full on action movie. It wasn't as action fuelled as I thought it was going to be. A good action movie, especially ones with terrorists, makes you fear the perpetrators. I just wanted to laugh at the bad guys. Not very realistic in the sense that the way the White House was captured was extremely unrealistic. Enjoyable movie but not amazing.
Secret Obsession
(2019)
Good concept, butchered in execution
15 August 2020
Plot: 6/10
Casting: 5/10
Acting: 4/10
Execution: 3/10
Good idea for a movie but the end product just wasn't there. Certain parts seemed very scripted. The movie wasn't very grabbing. Ran out of stamina about halfway through. Unexplained or unnecessary things happened in the movie that added no substance. Honestly, wouldn't recommend. If you're thinking of watching this movie because you're in the mood for a thriller, looks elsewhere.

Keep Watching

I struggled to Keep Watching
2 August 2020
Consisting of some relatively well known actors, I thought this movie would be good. Honestly I wanted to turn it off multiple times throughout the movie. Had to force myself to finish. Maybe that's the plot behind the movie? Viewers struggle to Keep Watching. Very unsatisfying ending. This movie lacks substance. We don't get enough about character backstory or motive.
Amityville: The Awakening
(2017)
Very much a 5 out of 10
30 July 2020
Not the best horror movie out there but it was enjoyable. Don't go into this movie with high expectations, you will be disappointed. Acting was pretty good but I think character substance needed a bit more development. Overall, not a bad movie. Wouldn't watch it again in a hurry but no regrets in watching it.

Slasher Bread and Butter
29 July 2020
If you're looking for a groundbreaking horror movie to watch, this isn't for you. No real substance to the storyline. Very cliche. Group of kids go to a secluded house in the woods and... well... you know the rest. If you want to watch a classic slasher style movie full of gore and unnecessary nudity, this is the movie for you.
Assassin's Creed: Odyssey
(2018 Video Game)
Very good
19 June 2020
I started playing this game having not played any of the Assasins Creed games. I am loving this game! So much to do in this game that it's impossible to see myself getting bored of it. I play on PS4 and I am very happy with the gameplay experience. My only issue with the game is the "sluggish" horse riding mechanics. However, with that said, Red Dead Redemption set horse riding mechanics to a whole new level. Bearing this all in mind, this game is a solid 8-8.5 out of 10.
