‘What if It’s The Sword in the Stone?’ – The Kid Who Would Be King Review
What happens when you mix together the old and the new? What happens when you mix myth and legend with real world modern reality? What happens if you tell an ordinary boy that he was a long-lost king?
‘Just When I Thought I’d Seen Everything’ – Dumbo Review
If there is one fact that simply cannot be denied it is that Disney is a money-making machine. Whether they are making the most of the Marvel Franchise or bringing out a tonne of merchandise with every movie release, this is a company that certainly knows how to make money and other recent years they…
‘I Think Nick Fury Just Hijacked Our Summer Vacation’ – Spiderman: Far From Home Review
There are some pretty big movie franchises out there in the world, and perhaps one of the biggest is anything connected to Marvel. I’ll be honest here and say that I am not the biggest fan of superhero movies. I can never quite get into the stories, especially when they start overlapping into other movies,…
‘People Don’t Pay To See Reginald Dwight! They Pay To See Elton John!’ – Rocketman Review

‘I didn’t know love had an expiration date’ – Letters to Juliet (2010) review
A romantic comedy set in sun soaked Italy, featuring some of the stereotypes of the genre and some great actors, with the story of Romeo and Juliet as the backdrop. Sounds cheesy, almost too cheesy, but that’s ‘Letter’s to Juliet’ in a nutshell. Sunny cheesy romantic escapism. You don’t have to think too hard with…
A Game For Those Who Seek To Find : Jumanji – Welcome To The Jungle Review
All the way back in 1995, the original Jumanji film was released and became a favourite of many. I’ll be honest and admit that I didn’t actually watch it until a couple of years ago but when I did, I could easily see why so many people like it. It’s magical, colourful, full of action…
‘Or Are You Someone Out There Who is A Little Bit Like Me?’ – Frozen 2 Review
It’s hard to believe that it’s been six years since Disney’s Frozen first hit the big screen and started something big. Merchandise was everywhere and ‘Let It Go’ was every child’s favourite song to belt out at the top of their lungs. And now, watch out, because just in time for Christmas, Frozen Fever is…
