Hope Lost

Hope Lost is a regular horror film that builds its storyline around forced prostitution. It was not bad but if you want to watch a film on this subject that is more horrifying and certainly would make more of an impact than I recommend Lilya4ever.

Plush is a mediocre film but I like Emily Browning so I watched it and despite falling asleep at places I have rewound and managed to finish it. 

Matters of The Heart (2015)

Matters of The Heart turned to be a washed out lame effort. But I like Patrick Wilson (which is very strange to me, that I do) and watched it for his sake.

Dünyanın En Güzel Kokusu

Dünyanın En Güzel Kokusu çok ilgimi çeken bir film değildi ama Tuba Ünsal'ı severim. Hem Dvdigi'de hazır karşımda durunca bir deneyeyim dedim. Fena değildi ama çok çok güzel de değildi. Bence en büyük problem ses konusunda yaşanıyordu. Oyuncuların artikülasyonu yeterli olmadığı gibi konuşmalar duyulmuyor ve anlaşılmıyordu. Konusunda da pek aman aman bir şey yoktu. Tabi ben bir ağla bir ağla SPOILER   kızacağızın öleceğini aklıma bile getirmemiştim doğrusu. Çok üzüldüm ama ne bileyim Aşk Tesadüleri Sever'de olduğu gibi komalık olmadım sadece normal boyuttla bir ağlama oldu. Neyse karşınıza çıkarsa bir göz atın ama izlememekle çok bir şey kaybetmiş sayılmazsınız bence. 

Pulp Fiction

Pulp Fiction is a classic as far as I'm concerned and I never get tired of it no matter how many times I have watched it. 

Perdido Street Station

Perdido Street Station This novel made me to face the dilemna readers face from time to time. I didn't like it but I felt like I couldn't stop listening to it.

First off this is not a bad novel. It has a nicely done AU, interesting and different characters and many action. However I was unable to have that special bond one makes with the book. On paper this sounds like something I'd love but that connection was not there.

Apt comparisons were made likening it to novels of Charles Dickens but I love Dickens however Perdido Street Station did not work for me at all.

I do respect the writer and the novel so I kept on and on and on and finally last night I was able to finish it. It felt a weight has lifted off my shoulders.

I suggest first read some of it and see whether this is for you before purchasing it.

The reader's performance was very good btw. This just was not my thing. It is not you Mr. Miéville, it's me.

Furious 7

Furious 7 is a lot of fun with impossible stunts and action. The thing is I kind of fell asleep during and had to rewind but got really emotional in the end and I think that was a great tribute to Paul Walker. I was in tears, getting emotional. Rest in peace Mr. Walker.
