Took a while, but once the connnections were spotted it was easy to solve. Nice grid with good crossovers.

Please correct the 'Bulllseye'. The typo had me looking for other misspellings as a link.

Thanks Malcontent, I didn't see that third L when I submitted it.
Time to book in at the opticians again...

Nicely done - Cobra had me scratching my head - I couldn’t get past films and that group are all films Cobra with Arnie, Cocktail with cruise, Bullseye with Michael Caine and Rampage with Dwayne Johnson - pushing fiendish as a result …. But stuck to hard :) bit frustrating that a full group has two full connections kept it off a 5 star

Nice grid... 👍

I see your point now, Neil, but just "films" would be a bit of a loose connection, especially with a more specific group of them in the same grid. Cobra was Stallone, btw. ;)

I'd never heard of "criminal damage" as a distinct term. Did some googling and it looks like a British usage. Ah well.

that was a nice grid

I got so lost with all the Room cruise films, but once I got the male animals.

Good wall
