The time has come.
It's been fun! Well... most of it has. When we started this little blog, it was a way of passing the time during the initial lockdown. And we never thought that we would have reviewed over 75 films.
As a brief summary:
Jess|Sam
Favourite: Train to Busan (2016) |Favourite: Warrior (2011)
Most Surprised By: Death of Stalin (2017) | Most Surprised By: Train to Busan (2016) Guilty Pleasure: White Chicks (2004) |Guilty Pleasure: Sword of Trust (2019)
Worst: Spenser Confidential (2020) | Worst: Birds of Prey (2020)
While I (Sam) do believe that we both definitely improved, it was trickier than I initially thought it would be. First off was finding a voice, opposed to the chaotic ramblings of our earlier reviews. Then it was trying to be objective, which I gave up in favour of gut feeling. But overall, it was an interesting, frustrating and fun journey.
And we would not have continued if it wasn't for a select group of people that supported us throughout this little adventure. Thank you to my Uncle Martin, my dad and my mum. The views, comments and conversations were often a highlight of my day in such crazy times.
And so, with heavy hearts, it comes time to say goodbye. Thank you for going on this journey with us.
From,
Sam and Jess x
Thanks, Dad. I was surprised at how big of a commitment it felt at times! Plus the pressure that comes with it. (You know me, there’s no point in doing anything unless I’m going to worry about it!) Both of us appreciate the support. Love, Sam and Jess x
Well done for having stuck with it and providing us with many good reads. I’m truly sorry to see it go but I appreciate that it was a big commitment. Like my older brother, I really enjoyed both of your writing styles. And if you ever fancy doing any more you know you have a loyal audience who will be waiting! Love, Dad xxx
Thanks, Uncle Martin. You’re incredibly kind. We’ve both really appreciated the support you’ve given us and this blog. Take care. Love, Sam and Jess x
It's a true magnum opus. Not only has it been extremely entertaining, enjoyable, funny and informative, but I've loved your individual writing styles. Well done to both of you, it's been a blast. Take care and thank you. Love Uncle Martin xx
