 My Review:
Seeing The Titan on Netflix I thought that I would check it out as it was a sci-fi/thriller and new to 2018. This film was how I expected it to be and I was rather glad to have watched it.

The Titan is about a group of people who go through experiments in order to lower their oxygen levels and get them ready to go to the planet Titan in order to see if there is a chance that the human race could live outside of Earth. However the experiment is not what it seems.

I thought that this film was rather interesting and showed how to enhance human evolution in order to better the human race but also showed the side effects and how dangerous that it can be. By also keeping the families of the people close the audience was able to see how the family felt while their loved one was going through the experiment and how much the character was going through and changing from the beginning to the end. I thought by keeping some of the experiment a little secret till near the end of the movie it made the film more interesting and kept a little twist for the end of the movie. The casting for The Titan was also really well done and made me connect more with the characters due to casting which made the audience care for the characters. I also thought that having the very ending with the only person who survived the experiments having went to Titan showed how it was possible for making human evolution happen faster.

This movie however didn't go really into how they made the injections to make human evolution go faster and how more than only a couple of the people went on with the experiment. Also with the surgery when the person's skin went extremely different and paler it didn't explain how this happened.

I did think that this movie was good overall and a film I would see again. I would recommend this film to those looking for a sci-fi movie and one to do with human evolution.

My Rating: 4/5

Not remembering it made me feel like this was a new movie to me and I did keep me watching all of the way through easily. I like that this film showed how the device in which they discover is able to make people stronger and able to make them younger as well. By also having this device able to reattach body parts it makes the audience worried about how they will get rid o

Moon Over Soho - Ben Aaronovitch (book review) *contains spoilers*

Book: Moon Over Soho Author: Ben Aaronovitch Genre: Crime, Fantasy, Mystery Published By: Gollancz Published Year: 2011 My Review: Having my colleague let me borrow the second book in the Peter Grant series I was looking forward to see how they would progress from the first book and what supernatural beings that they would have to defeat now. Moon Over Soho  is about jazz musicians who end up dying not long after coming off of the stage and seeming healthy at the time. Feeling that something is wrong they call in Peter Grant to help with the investigation and discover that something supernatural was going on. While this is happening there is a new threat arriving called The Faceless One who is also a wizard but no-one remembers what they look like. Will Peter be able to stop the threats facing London? Personally, I liked this book a lot more than the first book as it was already established also there was more supernatural beings introduced and to worry about in London th
