“I can’t believe they kissed!” said my 7 year old sorrowfully, after watching this trailer. And he’s their target audience. Yes the gang are back and this time it’s all about family. Bea, played by Rose Byrne (“that’s Emma Watson” the 7 year old movie expert said confidently to me) and Thomas McGregor (Domnhall Gleeson),… Our favourite bunny is in a stew in the Peter Rabbit 2 trailer Read More
“What’s up Doc?” Morbius teaser-trailer released
“How far are we allowed to go, to fix something that’s broken?” asks Dr Michael Morbius of his mentor, played by Jared Harris. “Until the remedy is worse than the disease”, he replies. Jared Leto is the Marvel villain, in the longest teaser trailer I’ve ever seen. It’s a welcome change from some of the blink-and-you-miss-it… “What’s up Doc?” Morbius teaser-trailer released Read More
NEW international trailer for superhero movie BLOODSHOT turns Vin Diesel into the ultimate weapon
Vin Diesel is soldier Ray Garrison – brought back from the dead, enhanced with nanotechnology.

First trailer: True History of the Kelly Gang
Bush-ranger and outlaw Ned Kelly has apparently had more biographies written about him than any Australian – this film is “rousingly adapted” from Australian writer Peter Carey’s novel of the same name, which was published in 2000 (and won the Booker Prize). The film premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) last year, and… First trailer: True History of the Kelly Gang Read More

Gretel And Hansel: final trailer has a demon in the kitchen
An even grimmer version of Grimms’ fairy tale. This trailer terrified me, and I love baking. There’s also a new poster: Heres the synopsis: “A long time ago in a distant fairy tale countryside, a young girl leads her little brother into a dark wood in desperate search of food and work, only to stumble… Gretel And Hansel: final trailer has a demon in the kitchen Read More
A Quiet Place Part 2: the first trailer!
This time the Abbott family (what’s left of them, anyway) go looking for more survivors, and they aren’t that friendly: “The people that are left [ominous pause] are not the kind of people worth saving”. It won’t just be your nerves jangling as you watch the first proper trailer for A Quiet Place: Part II… A Quiet Place Part 2: the first trailer! Read More

Time runs out on 17 July 2020: trailer for Christopher Nolan’s TENET released
“Welcome to the afterlife…” Want to know what this is about? Me too! Tenet means a principle on which a belief or theory is based, and the trailer implies this is around John David Washington’s character, who appears to be a spy and appears to refuse to give up details of his colleagues, which appears… Time runs out on 17 July 2020: trailer for Christopher Nolan’s TENET released Read More
Frozen 2 4 stars
Water may have memory, as Olaf believes (no doubt to the delight of homeopaths everywhere) but since turning 45, I don’t. I can barely recall Frozen, despite seeing it in the cinema more than once with my children. Still, I’m going to stick my neck out and say that this sequel, six years on, is something… Frozen 2 Read More
Judy & Punch 4 stars
Brazen, bouncy and hugely entertaining, this is part fairytale and part Punch and Judy origins story – and like many fairytales it has become sanitised in its journey to what we know as a Punch and Judy show today. Our modern Mr Punch, by now fading even as a children’s entertainment, is *only* a wife… Judy & Punch Read More
Little Monsters (London Film Festival 2019) 3 stars
Little Monsters is a great advert for teacher excellence, if not much of a recruiting tool – as multi-talented kindergarten teacher Miss Caroline has to save her class of small charges as they face down an attempted zombie apocalypse. I say attempted; it does feel a little half-hearted, as the world’s slowest undead hordes stagger round… Little Monsters (London Film Festival 2019) Read More
