British Weather

As most people will know Britain doesn’t always have the best weather. It’s normally known for rain, wind and cold days. This doesn’t mean that Britain doesn’t get hot weather because in summer it can get better. I thought I would talk about British weather today because it’s a common thing to talk about. Sometimes the weather is a boring subject, but whenever you see someone or meet someone you always talk about the weather. For example, you talk about the weather when planning things or you talk about the weather when there’s nothing else to talk about. It’s a general subject that is just easier to talk about. People complain about British weather all the time. "It's too cold". "It's too hot". The thing is unlike hot countries we don't have air conditioning or pools in our gardens. I think the weather isn't that much of a big deal it just depends what you're doing during the day because we all know that the weather can change and ruin your day in seconds. I just can't believe how great the weather has been recently, it's been hot for ages. Personally, I think that's it now because I can't wait for Autumn.

Film review: Adrift

Adrift is an incredible film, it's emotional, dramatic and a true story. I am so glad I saw this film. It's weird because I had heard of it but hadn't seen that trailer so I didn't really know what to expect. The film shows what this woman went through and in detail. The way it was filmed was great and the actors were fantastic. It was interesting to watch, but upsetting to think that someone had been through something like this.

It was released 29th of June 2018 in the UK and is a 12A. The genre is action/adventure/drama and it ran for 1 hour, 36 minutes.

An engaged couple were on a boat trip together, they were in love and didn't know what was coming. They were sailing and one day the most catastrophic hurricanes in recorded history hit them. The woman was inside the cabin and when she woke up it took all her might and bravery to survive. She was adrift for 41 days.

I would definitely see this if I was you, but maybe take a pack of tissues. I rate this a 5 out of 5 stars.

Film review: Tag

You may be thinking why do another film review, especially when this film has been out for nearly 2 weeks. Well, surprisingly, I like to write them and I go to the cinema a lot. Anyways, the film Tag came out on the 29th of June 2018 in the UK. It is 1 hour and 40 minutes long, rated 15 and is a comedy.

I wanted to go and see this film because who doesn't love a comedy? Also, because it was such a weird story line I thought it would be amusing to see what happened. It was very funny due to the genre, so it was made to be like that, but also because it's just funny to think at a group of people play tag or tig (as we called) every year and it was a true story. 

The story is about a group of men who have a game of tag every year, which has happened since they were kids. The game of tag in their words 'keeps them close'. The story is so random that I didn't believe it was true until the end where you see footage of the real people. The main characters are the 5 guys who play the game of tag, each character has a different life which you see though out which helps show why they decided to play the game. It's a bit of fun and makes life more interesting.

I really enjoyed this film, personally I think it was better than Ocean's 8 however, I give it a 4 out of 5 stars. I recommend to anyone really because it's just a laugh, obviously over the age of 15 :)

Film review: Ocean's 8

The film that I am reviewing today as you can see from the title is Ocean's 8. It was released in the UK on the 18th of June 2018 and is 1 hour and 50 minutes long. Age rating is 12A and genre is crime/action/comedy.

When I first saw the trailer I thought it looked interesting which it was. It's interesting as you get to see the crime in detail, how it's done and what each character does to make it successful. There wasn't a lot of comedy, but it didn't matter because it still was worth watching. I don't think the film has a meaning, but I don't think it's that type of film.

The plot is about a group of people who plan to steal some really expensive jewellery. Obviously there is more to it, but I don't want to want to spoil it for people who haven't seen it. The plot definitely makes sense, at first I didn't know what was going on but as the film went on it became more clear. The main characters are the 8 people in the group who steal the jewellery that's why it's called Ocean's 8. The ocean comes from the last name of the women who comes up with the plan in the first place. All characters were played very well and each character had a different personality which helps with the story line.

Overall, I really enjoyed the film and would rate it 4 out of 5 stars. I would definitely recommend to 13+ but it won't be everyone's cup of tea so check the trailer out.

Leaving school

I have officially left school. No more early mornings. 11 weeks until college. A great summer ahead of me. I can't believe that's it. So many memories from the past 5 years. I am so happy all my exams are done and now I can focus on nothing... just relax. It felt different to how I thought it would. I thought it was going to be a big deal, but thankfully not. Obviously I will miss school sometimes, mainly just my friends, but we will stay in touch. Everyone has their own opinion on school, but most people can't wait to leave. What about you? I think change is a good thing, especially never having to study Macbeth ever again. I just hope that this summer goes slower than normal, so it can be the best summer ever.
