Movie Review: Me Before You (2016) *Spoiler Free*

Me Before You is not quite your average romantic drama given that the leading man is a quadriplegic. Which is only unusual in that there aren't too many films, if any, that spring to mind, where either leading character is completely dependant on others just to get through their day. Based on the book of the same name by Jojo Moyes. Me Before You sees former cafe waitress, Lou Clark (Emilia Clarke) hired to look after Will Traynor (Sam Claflin), who used to have the ultimate carefree and successful life before an unfortunate accident that left him a quadriplegic.

The Nice Guys  movie from writer/director Shane Black is a laugh out loud, comedy, crime, action drama that showcases its two leads, Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling not exactly against type but perhaps a little left of centre from what you might expect of them. Both play private detectives who are initially working opposite sides of the same case (kind of) but eventually come together as things become more complex.

Book Review: Amazing Fantastic Incredible: A Marvelous Memoir - Stan Lee

I feel like I should review Stan Lee's graphic novel, Amazing Fantastic Incredible: A Marvelous Memoir , with a couple of comic book pages rather than a wordy blog post... if only I had the time! Stan Lee is creator and co-creator of some of the most identifiable comic book characters on the planet and has probably had as much influence on the world (or even arguably more) through comic books and movies than Steve Jobs .
