Super quick book and movie review

I know, I know! I'm so lame right now...life is just kinda jacked up and I feel like all I do is talk about it so I've had very little desire to blog about it.

Let's see...a little normalcy has returned so I did finish a book and squeeze a movie in this past week.

The book is really old. I recently finished Firestarter by Stephen King.
Review: Good to great classic King. Read it, you'll like it. I believe there is a movie starring Drew Barrymore as the little girl.

The movie is Harry Potter 6.
Review: You can definitely tell it's the transition story in the series, so in that respect, it's just like the book. I thought the scene transitions were kind of crappy though. I just felt like it jumped from part to part...and it was still 2 1/2 hours. Don't get me wrong, it was a very enjoyable 2 1/2 hours. The hormones of the now grown characters provide a lot of laughs. I felt like they skimped out on the Tom Riddle memories though. I guess they chose to keep us more in the present and only show the vital memories to help us understand the two part finale we have to look forward to. Go see it. It won't be a waste of your money.

The end. Sorry, lame, I know.
