The Reckoning by John Grisham – A Must-Read or a Miss?
John Grisham’s The Reckoning takes us on a journey through law, war, and small-town drama, but does it deliver a satisfying conclusion? In this review, I break down the key characters-war hero Pete Banning, his wife Liza, their kids, and Reverend Dexter Bell-while also exploring the book’s unexpected deep dive into World War II history, particularly the Bataan Death March.
I share my thoughts on Grisham’s storytelling, the book’s three-part structure, and what worked (and didn’t) for me. Plus, I discuss some major spoilers, including my issues with certain character choices and legal proceedings in the novel. And, of course, I cast some Hollywood stars in the roles I envisioned while reading!

In this nostalgic look back, I revisit *The Tomorrow People*, the British sci-fi series that captured my imagination as a kid.

While it starts strong with The Eye of the World-offering a unique take on the hero’s journey, complex world-building, and progressive themes for its time-the series quickly spirals into what I’d call bloat overload. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬...

Corporate Is Killing Us: Fascinating Horror Exposes Capitalism's Underbelly
Did you enjoy the movie The Sum of all Fears? That was a favorite of mine from the Jack Ryan series.
I haven’t actually seen that one; might need to give it a look. 🤔
Ah, but The Doctor never kills either. He does oh so much worse, making those he drives to those lengths to wish that he had killed them instead.
Very true! “Family Of Blood” is a fine example of that!
I've had issues of not having a spot because of persons without a placard parking in handicapped. I've called the cops to give tickets and have confronted people. I do try to make consequences for this behavior because it protects my health and others who need close parking.
Thank you for holding them accountable ❤️
Beautiful!
Thank you so much! 💕
I lost feeling in one leg.......I went to stand......I fell from my bed when trying to get up......got my little toe on other leg stuck in bed frame .....I ended up in surgery as I ripped my little toe nearly off.
Holy crap! Are you recovering okay?
@KenMcKim hi, yes thank you for asking. They sewed it back on but it is now just for show as it does not work or have any feeling in it. It is amazing how injury, causes another completely different one for you to recover from..... not something I really needed.
I hate ai videos. Even when the topic is very interesting, it's just jarring to hear the same 5 sentences regurgitated and rephrased 50 times. Super obvious that the ai got a 5 sentence long prompt and stretch it out to a 20 min video. I now click off immediately as soon as i recognize it.
I click off as soon as I recognize it as well. I think that is why I was so annoyed with this one in particular; it was good enough to fool me for almost the entire video.
Years ago I would watch a faceless video on an interesting topic, but not anymore. I hover my cursor over it, then give up if I don't see anyone.
Tts used to be easily recognizable, so you couldn't be tricked it was something else. Now with AI you can be. I hate that. It happened to me more that once where I was watching videos and after some time I realized or after looking in the comments someone pointed out it was AI. It's so annoying. I just want humans to speak, is that really too much to ask?
You have a great point, from now on I might scan the comments to see if anyone mentions that it is AI 🤔
bro your wearing a "smart" watch which is using EMF radiation to communicate and your b!tchin about AI? They already pulled the wool over your eyes. Also the blue chemical you use on your hair soaking into your skull or the LEDs damaging your eyes in the backdrop or the Stanly cup made partly out of lead metal? GTFO. My quail birds have a higher IQ
Its not the ones you notice that should worry you its the question of how many are good enough to get by you.
That's true. They both worry me 🫠
This is why I love WhatCulture because I know exactly who is talking to me on their videos because you see them and hear them. Also, they know better than to ever exclude Mass Effect from any kind of relevant list.
WhatCulture is another good one, for sure.
@@KenMcKim did you take the juice in the arm pleb?
It's complete shit, Sanderson "finishing it" was so on brand.
The wife read this book because she's obsessed with Cary Elwes (bad news for me) and she loved it. We actually saw him live for a Q&A after a viewing of Princess Bride and he seemed like one of the most delightful people ever. His ability to make people smile and laugh is effortless. Especially on the ladyfolk.
I’m glad he’s nice IRL, that’s awesome to hear. So many times, celebrities are not worth meeting.
I am a Huge Fantasy reader! I Read The Belgariad and the The Malloreon & ALL of the Christopher Tolkein Works and the Shaneria books to a point.. Even Anne McCaffrey to a point, with PERN.. But there is a turning where a LONG series of books and READING an author gets to be a Non-Game! Terry Brooks Banked Me! Shannara kept going On & On. I Got Tired of it! I have never read the Wheel of TIME.. I am sure that it is good! But I look at ALL of the books and say What a WASTE of Time! There are Soo many others out there.. Katherine Kurtz.. How many stories of the world of "Deryni" can there be? Another Big reading challenge that looks Awesome, But I do not want to get into, as it is HUGE! I only have so much time in my life to read day by day.. DUNE and the expansion WAS an Awesome thing to Read BTW!! For Me = Well worth it, as they were Very Unique!
I read up through Wishsong of Shannara, but that's as far as I got. And I think I read through ChapterHouse Dune; really like them, but it's been a minute. I might need to re-read them 🤔
This is a Much Hated movie that I can see, from posts and reviews.. I Think that it was Brilliant! The Costumes were AWESOME, as well as the the scenes! This was a WELL Done Movie! This is a Near PERFECT "EPIC", Movie! It IS Long though, as it should be. But some people Hate it and I Really do not know why. Answer to you Morgana question, about recognition.. = She is a WITCH! She can will into the mind of Author Whatever her immage that she wants! An others as well. What a BEAUTIFUL Movie that this is! BTW "First Knight" Really Sucked! Even with Sean Connery! The Armor was hiddieous and Stupid!
I don't get the hate for it either. And thanks for the solidarity regarding First Knight; such a misfire of a movie 🤦🏻
I read the novels in the late 90s and also made it to Path of Daggers and don't remember reading anything after that. I remember being overwhelmed by the number of characters but also the stereotypical way he wrote about many of the female characters. The earlier stuff I remember really enjoying.
Agreed, this series started out so strong.
Excalibur is such a great movie. Accomplished one of the greatest movie scenes in cinema history.
I truly still do love this film! What is your favorite scene?
Great review. Extra points for “moistened bink”.
Thanks, I’m glad someone caught that line 🤣
Deep dive indeed. It was a great movie. And yes, the mini series w/ HBC (who is mad) does a good job with the story. It's worth a watch. Thx for posting.
Excellent, I’m so glad you enjoyed the review! 😊 And thanks for sharing your thoughts on Merlin; so far it’s 1 viewer for watching it and 1 viewer against. I’m leaning toward watching just because of HBC🤔
Very interesting presentation. I learned a few things about this beloved rendition of the Arthurian legend. The original DVD does not have a good audio track. I presume the Blu-ray version will have a better track on it. Finally, please do not waste your precious time on Merlin. Nothing can compare to Excalibur. DAL
Thanks DAL! I'm glad you found the video worthwhile 😊 Good to hear an opinion about Merlin.
I got diagnosed with this today 😢
I’m sorry to hear that; I hope you get the best care possible 💔
I'd heard that as the end credits were rolling at the premiere, Mandy Patinkin wept with the realization he was in an enduring classic of a movie.
I’m here with you, man. I feel what you feel. I wish I had any tips at all - I’m sending you hugs.
Thanks so much 🙏
I listened to the audiobook and it was so funny, heartwarming and excellent!
This is definitely one I have thought about getting the audiobook of 🤔
I am dying from cerebral, systemic lupus and in so much pain all the time. I live in a developing country and am continously persecuted for my debilitating illness..
I am so sorry. I wish there was more empathy in this world. 💔
I love my twsbi Eco with the stub, and I just got a bottle of Shin-Kai recently. It is finding its way into many of my pens. You have good taste my friend! I have been experimenting with cheaper a5 notebooks to put in with my Rhodia planner (same paper as Clairfontaine, I believe). My recent go to stationary is the A5 Muji notebooks. They are 5 thin books for 12 bucks on Amazon, and the paper is good-almost as crisp as the Rhodia! They are even cheaper when Ruby goes to the city, so I have her grab me a few at the Muji store. At the store they have "bleed proof" notebooks that are a bit more expensive, and I love them, but I find that paper that is coated too much takes too long to dry. It's a compromise I guess. Nice video Ken. I am enjoying your recent review content.
Thanks, Greg! For me, I will always choose the heavier coatings because I love bringing out the shimmer/sheen in the inks. When I write, I always have a blotting card right there with me and will usually write a line, blot, write another line, blot, etc. It's a bit cumbersome, but worth it for me.
Some real classic Ken content :D
My hair was a weird color back then
Omg yes it's so frustrating to see this in media. Makes me wanna yell at characters to just talk to each other.
Exactly 💯
I had an on-line class on CBT for chronic pain which met once a week for eight weeks. Luckily, the class began six days after my ketamine treatment for peripheral neuropathy when I have great psychological momentum. The tools provided are generally useful, and there are many opportunities to apply what I'd learned.
That was great timing, for sure!
on this topic ... • The Sapphires is about a girl group from Australis managed by a guy brilliantly portrayed by Chris O'Dowd. • Kneecap is about an Irish hip hop group, been getting good reviews, and recently showed up on Netflix.
on this topic ... • Just watched The Holdovers which takes place during Christmas, but is more than a seasonal movie. • Rare Exports from Finland is a favorite of mine about a mining company finding something mysterious in a mountain. • Joyeux Noël is a French movie based on a Christmas event with soldiers during WWI.
Interesting 🧐 I will look into those, thank you ☺️
We watched it based off of your recommendation and enjoyed it. It's not making the yearly rotation but we'll still break it out once in a while. I'd put it in that The Ref or Bad Santa class of anti-hero Christmas movies that are nice to break up the usual sugary sweetness of White Christmas or Muppets Christmas Carol.
That's a great comparison; I haven’t watched The Ref in a loooooong minute 🤔
Thanks for your video it was great. I will try the method that worked for you.
Good luck to you, I hope you find some relief 🙏
Ngl I'm not into music movies at all but the review was interesting nonetheless. Maybe even because I wouldn't have watched the movie myself. Also it's nice that it brings you so much joy. Thank you for the video Ken :) You take care too.
Thank you, you as well ♥️
It's a great movie thyat holds up.
Diner is one of my 100 favourite films of all time, so it’s interesting to hear your take on it. I essentially agree with a lot of your observations (all the characters’ flaws) but see them as positives of the film. It probably wouldn’t be very interesting if all the characters were good, mature well-balanced, individuals. I do agree with you on Ninth Gate though 😀.
Ninth Gate 🤦🏼♂️ So glad I am not alone in my disdain for that trash fire
This film is superb. There's a reason every one of it's cast became major stars later on. And I do agree about the similarities with Beautiful Girls. But both are great and honest movies about the flaws of average men, clinging to their youth. Christ, what you call "problematic" I imagine many would call "real".
The movie is about a bunch of immature guys having trouble growing up. Which is why it’s funny. It feels more real than modern comedies, which is maybe why the characters made you feel uncomfortable. You don’t have to like the characters but you are welcome to laugh at them. But it’s not sitcom funny. The style of the film is far more real world than that. Btw this film was highly influenced by a Fellini film called I Vitelloni. Similar story about guys who can’t grow up. Maybe the first and best of its kind. 🎥
There’s a movie I feel was more compelling and told the same kind of story as Diner but better IMHO called Le Haine. That movie just gripped me from the very beginning, and the ending left me with my head in my hands thinking, “What the hell did I just watch?” but in a good way.
No shade; everyone has their own taste in films. That being said, clearly you're not from Baltimore. Barry Levinson is from Baltimore and this film is a loose reflection of his early adulthood. There are lots of interesting stories about Levinson's style of directing this movie, and for those of us from B-more, this film rings pretty true. It's also a comedy, so not to be taken too seriously; something I think you likely did. But again, not your taste which is fine. The Rotten Tomatoes scores should be an indicator that you may have missed something, however.
It is interesting to hear a perspective from Baltimore, thank you for sharing!
You are so wrong. This one of the best film ever. Everyone becomes a star. It is a very Jewish movie
I mean, everyone became a star, but that was in large part due to not only talent, but luck (like most things in life). And I feel like their career trajectories had very little to do with this particular movie other than succeeding in spite of it.
Thank you for the levied, I don't think I will be watching this movie🎥🤣
Review, don’t know what kind of autocorrect that was
Thanks, I liked this. Not the movie(s) obv.. But the review was nice. Hope you're making one about a movie you actually liked, at some point.

I have been taking care of my sick wife and eating stuffed crust pizza from Papa Murphy's. Also, it's frickin cold here. Idea for your channel.

"Hey ya hawd-on, you look like ya could use some knuckle therapy!" and don't forget to push them in the chest. This is a good fighting ice breaker. This is what the kids like these days. Make this happen.
