The story is pretty good. Some of the "prep" scenes are questionable and make Rapp out to be a terrible human being rather than a cool guy. I especially have an issue with the range scene. That type of activity is very much frown upon by EVERYONE.
Movies
This movie is well received and with good reason. It was very funny and the action with it feels good. There are some very interesting visuals in this as well. I mean the scene with Bradley Cooper is way funnier than it should be.
Books
This is the book that I was so excited to read when it first came out, that I read ahead of where my mom and I stopped. Tre story, the magic, and the characters are just huge in my mind from this point forward.

I was pleasantly surprised by this movie. I had heard good things, but Glen Powell usually annoys me so I was expecting the same. However, this did really well. He is much more human and less pretty boy in this movie and I liked it.

I know people call this a 10, however it isn't there. Timothy does a great job with one major exception. He monologue in the South. Every time I watch it, I am just dragged out of the movie because it doesn't feel believable as compared to the rest of the movie.

In our first live podcast episode, we have a special guest, Amanda, who dives in with us into the Dragon Age video game series. We discuss their personal experiences with the games, the impact of choices in RPGs, and the evolution of character development and romance options throughout the series.

Will and Martin are a great paring, which is why in 2024 we got a new Bad Boys movie that I am looking forward to watching. This isn't Oscar worthy, I mean it is an early Michael Bay, but it is very enjoyable to watch. They do a great job of just working off of each other and pushing the envelope
Movies
This is a weird movie. It wasn't what I was thinking it was going to be and honestly I didn't life it. I just think movies that show grotesque events, Dennis Quid chewing life a maniac, for the sake of just being gross. It doesn't add anything to the movie, and removes from the substance
Movies
What a way to start off a movie with crappy AI video. I have never been so immediately turned off of a show or movie than I was with this pure fiction of a opening sequence. I mean White Lotus starts off with a dude holding his... "Pillar and stones" and this was more appalling.
Books
The short of this is that this book isn't for everyone. Much like his comedy, these stories can be crass and graphic, but if you keep yourself open-minded, and you don't mind a more language than Captain America has ever heard, then you can find some hysterical stories.
TV
The rest of the cast isn't bad, but I feel like their acting is a little over the top. Everything feels very dramatic when I don't think it should be. I am not mad at Olivia Williams or Emily Watson, but I just feel they are static in their actions. Their younger selves are better cast.
Books
However, I have since learned that really it is a trilogy with 2 additional books that add more but aren't considered part of the main series. Second, there is a couple year gap between the first book and this which puts them out of being teenagers and somehow that feels better.
