Fun Friday: Nightmare in Paradise

This film starts off fast paced. After going to sleep on their first night on their 10th anniversary trip away, yes, what is going on?


Liz (AnnaLynne McCord) is back home, so the ‘Paradise’ aspect was short lived so far. Maybe this film could be called by another title.


From going at a fast pace this has slowed down a lot and it seems to be far longer than the story actually needs it to be so far. I still have no idea what is going on or why. Yes, a ‘Set up’ but why? This is intriguing.


It is sad to hear about being in prison being beneficial to Liz’s cellmate. At first I judged that Liz could be in for a rough time but this just goes to show that sometimes you and I just get it plain wrong.


This film, sadly, high-lights ‘Do we really know someone?’ The flashbacks of the trip are a good idea but it does seem all drawn out. Yes, either Andrew (Philip Boyd) is still alive or the owner of the ‘Dental records’ are not who Andrew said he is. This film does make me think that there are two sides to every story. It is not looking good.


Wow, go for it and I cannot believe it could be that easy. What about handcuffs in pain or not. Ok I am glad the plan worked but it is borderline unbelievable.


So back in ‘Paradise’ where does she start? I wouldn’t have a clue so, to me, it shows some well worked out script writing. It all hinges on the Dental records and enemies. I think also there may be one or two twists still to come and yes, we would all like to see the ‘Right’ people in prison.


The pace of this film has quickened and it is good in the script that a ‘Stay at home mother of two’ is clearly out of her comfort zone. It shows what people can be capable of in extreme circumstances.


Yes, twist one, I really don’t like how ‘Money talks’ it somehow mostly all comes down to money. However, against the love of her life I can see how money is worthless in comparison.


Well I didn’t see that twist coming, now why? it doesn’t make sense why risk another 10 years or more? Luckily after a tense moment it is all good.


It is heart-warming that Liz is ‘Paying it forward’ no, she doesn’t have to but that is the whole point of doing a good thing. Liz’s idea is a lovely, great and insightful idea, putting her new unexpected insider, in more ways than one, knowledge to good use.


Thank you for reading

Fun Friday Kids Lovejoy

  I thought the same. So, where is she? If Lovejoy (Ian McShane) says ‘He will get one’ I suppose he will. I suppose, I would say, it depends on what you paid for a painting a nice ‘Fake’ at a fake price is fine, but if you pay a genuine price tag, then you could be out of pocket/at a loss. A mother is a mother so that covers all. A chain is forming. I am glad he was ‘Word perfect’ With a compliment to Lovejoy, not that ‘Old’ then. All these rhetorical questions. These are amusing to hear. ‘George?’ so funny. A coincidence, the same outfit, oh dear. Sweet.  Oh, for the best, Ibelieve. ‘Closed’. That is good. Oh that, well at least the deal was done.

Fun Friday Love Knots Lovejoy

  It is nice to hear about the history of a collectible antique as we very rarely get to know where or why things are as they are. I really feel for Jane (Phyllis Logan) and it is sad that Alex (Pavel Douglas) is saying all the wrong things. Also I agree he should be around more for her to ask. That was good timing. I do feel for Jane it is horrible to watch. Just as Tinker (Dudley Sutton) was talking about travelling in his dreams . i thought of the film Chitty Chitty Bang Bang where Grandpa Potts (Lionel Jeffries) did most of his travelling through daydreaming and all of sudden Tinker spots a character in the auction room called Potts (Tony Caunter). This is a completely surprising coincidence. Now we hear Tinker talk about the interesting messages left and things are getting heated in the auction room. I don’t like that he stopped bidding either, it is disappointing to watch. That is a big dog. So funny poor Lovejoy (Ian McShane) sit down. That is one spoilt dog and that is an u...

Fun Friday Eric Of Arabia Lovejoy

  It is an eye opener and quite true, can something be classed as original when parts have been replaced due to wear and tear?. This part reminded me of the TV program Only Fools And Horses with David Jason. Where the character Trigger (Roger Lloyd Pack) was going to get an award for having the same broom whilst working. This would have been fine if he hadn’t revealed that the broom had had so many new heads and so many new handles. Lovejoy’s (Ian McShane) take on this is not quite so amusing but works for the episode. This bike business is now getting amusingly action packed and cringingly dubbed. What a find. Very useful.  Not the music again. Fascinating stuff. Thank you for reading Sandra
