Don’t listen to the reviews, this is genuinely one of the best movies I’ve seen recently and a genuine surprise from M. Knight, whom I think is treated a bit unfairly. He’s produced some iffy movies but he’s hit the mark a lot and this is definitely one of them. People commented on the singing aspect but personally I didn’t mind it, the songs were generic but easy enough to enjoy. All the cast delivered spectacularly, especially John Hartnett who portrayed an amazing OCD driven serial killer. Ariel Donoghue took me by surprise as well, I’m normally a bit iffy on child actors in prominent positions but she really delivered throughout, both the wife and younger brother also gave great performances. I was initially put off this movie due to the reviews but was recommended by a mate and I so regret not watching it initially. I would definitely give this movie a go. There are some parts that are a bit odd, like peoples phones on video mode but not recording, phones held up and to the right of their faces so they’re not in the shot but overall a solid 10/10 lower budget movie. Cannot recommend it enough

This has to be the worst movie I think I’ve seen in recent times, I have never been so disappointed. There’s about 4 different plots that tie in together. Plot is hard to follow and the chemistry is lacking severely between characters. Fan of gosling and Crowe but this was just flat. Ryan does this annoying, stupid high pitched voice every few minutes that just grates the ears. Maybe this makes more sense to Americans but it makes absolutely no sense to anyone else

One of the most shallow games I have ever played. I was expecting a lot from infinity ward after their success with previous modern warfares, creating a fantastic campaign and a fun multiplayer. This game has neither. The campaign is incredibly short, and I was able to complete it in one sitting. The majority of the characters are shallow and I actively disliked playing them. The SAS missions were very good, especially the mission Clean House and the Wolf’s Den, the Embassy mission is pretty good too, however it is not an overly enjoyable experience. The story is incredibly shallow and doesn’t make a whole lot of sense in a lot of the cases, it seems rushed or unfinished. They should have made more SAS missions, or carried on with the end of Modern Warfare 3, in the middle of the Russian war. There are very few dramatic moments, no real weight behind some of the decisions you make and you lack the opportunity to truly get immersed as the almost bad guy in the game, which it is laid out to be. Story is just disappointing, and even a bit silly at times. I genuinely wonder if the developers even know what a British police car looks like never mind their equipment... multiplayer is also incredibly lacking, with the addition of the operators, I just generally dislike the idea of it. People constantly camping in corners or down hallways, or just sprinting around solo. Ended up running around, encountering an enemy, killing them and then dying only for the friendly team leader to constantly say “enemy in the market” it’s just dull, there is nothing to this and I find it ridiculous that this was sold at near £70. It’s an absolute joke of a game and it further baffles me how the game is 100 gigabyte with the lack of content in it. Definitely will not recommend this. Will have to go and play the original modern warfare to get an idea of what a good campaign is again.
