Dad’s Army review
Why, just why? That was the question I was asking having sat through Dad’s Army: The Movie. I may be in the minority for my generation to have not only seen but loved the original version of Dad’s Army with Arthur Lowe and John Le Mesurier and will still watch the repeats on a Saturday … Continue reading Dad’s Army review
Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation review
It's great news for film fans when a franchise's fifth installment is it's strongest. Some Mission Impossible purists might disagree with me, but I am convinced that Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation is the best outing yet. Not bad for a franchise that started in 1996.

It is always risky making a film, where … Continue reading The Martian review

Inside Out review
Animated movies seem to be taking over, they're everywhere! The latest to take the Box Office by storm is Disney Pixar’s Inside Out. Perfectly summed up by its tagline, “a major emotion picture”, the films main characters are Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear and Disgust.

Ted 2 review
Has Seth McFarlane lost his magic touch? This is the question audiences are asking themselves as they leave the cinema after watching Ted 2! 2012 was McFarlane's year, Family Guy was as strong and as popular as ever and he had successfully made the transition to the big screen with Ted, the surprising comedic hit about … Continue reading Ted 2 review
