Film Friday: Jason Bourne

Jason Bourne

Directed by: Paul Greengrass

Staring: Matt Damon, Julia Stiles, Tommy Lee Jones, Alicia Vikander

The Breakdown: The most dangerous former operative of the CIA is drawn out of hiding to uncover hidden truths about his past. (From IMDB)


My Review:
First off I love Jason Bourne as a character and have been a fan of the series since film one. That being said I was thrilled when I heard that they were doing another film. This was a perfect Bourne film. It hit all the notes from the explosive car chase to the intense fight sequences. Yes it paid fan service to the Bourne fans but I wouldn't have had it any other way, Bourne is who he is and I don't want him to change one bit. Fans of the series going into this for something new will be disappointed as it is a by the books Bourne film but those just wanting to get all the things we love about Bourne then it is perfect.

Review of the Novel: The Fighting Shadows

Fighting Shadows

By: JC Steel

Rating: 5 Glasses

Now to start I will say that I have not read the first book in the series which worried me when I started it but I was quickly able to pick up and follow the story without even reading the first book. It is well put together and the world building is wonderful. It left me with many questions but what good thriller doesn't? I think it was a great blending of scifi and thriller and gave me a lot to work with when forming the characters and stories in my mind. A must read for SciFi fans

Film Friday: Star Trek Beyond

Star Trek Beyond

Directed by: Justin Lin

Staring: Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, Zoey Saldana, Karl Urban, Simon Pegg

The Breakdown: The USS Enterprise crew explores the furthest reaches of uncharted space, where they encounter a new ruthless enemy who puts them and everything the Federation stands for to the test. (From IMDB)


My Review:
I am going to start by saying that I am a fan of the original series AND a fan of the rebooted series. I think it is more than possible to love both for what they are and not try to compare them. That being said of the three of the reboot films I think this is my second favorite. I won't tell which one wins :) I really liked Jaylah and her addition I think fit in perfectly. Story wise it was well put together and executed. I think it was funnier and quirkier than the other two films and I think that was in big part to Simon Pegg being on the writing staff. I am a big fan of the actors being involved in the story writing especially when one has such an amazing talent for writing a fun story. This franchise could have gone terribly wrong and tried to make the films too serious to follow the trend of darkening the stories for drama. Star Trek is fun and lighthearted all while giving the viewer something to think about but laugh as well. This film hit is almost perfectly. I do wish that the storyline had been more developed and I was sad that they did not include Carol Marcus as the franchise goes forward. I hope that they reconsider and bring her back for the next film. The cast was perfect and the performances were on point. I think the Star Trek fans will be very happy with this new film.

Review of the Novel: Sunset Reads: William and Christina

Sunset Reads: William and Christina

By: D.C. Triana

Rating: 5 Glasses

A fun and engaging sensual read! I have a weak spot for a quick steamy read and this book was a perfect fit for my evening read. It had a good balance of intrigue and romance and didn't allow either to outshine the other. I never give away plot details sorry but I will say it was well conceived and presented and the romance fans will really enjoy this novel. I look forward to more in this series from author DC Triana.

It's Monday again, lol. I should be excited I am still on work break and I have almost got myself being productive. I have been working like crazy on getting all my promotion things together for the release of Jasmine and the promo week for James and Marie. Ugh it is frustrating filling out form after form trying to get maximum exposure. I am compiling my efforts and will report back to all of you as to the effectiveness of the campaign so you can learn from my successes and failures :)


Love you all
