No idea what the story’s about, beyond a tween genius criminal mastermind who has to rescue his dad. It all looks quite complicated, and in our house our books of choice are Captain Underpants, particularly the Turbo Toilet 2000. BUT! Dame Judi Dench with elf ears piloting a spaceship is five stars all on its… The Artemis Fowl trailer is here, criminally late Read More
Frozen II trailer: the past is not what it seems
“We had always feared Elsa’s powers were too much for this world. Now we must hope they are enough”. Frozen is going big this time, with Elsa on a journey north “across the enchanted land and into the unknown”. And she’s suitably dressed, as I’m from the north and I can confirm no one ever… Frozen II trailer: the past is not what it seems Read More
Dumbo (2D) 2.5 stars
Never let a mother hear you call her baby ugly. Like elephants, we never forget. Poor Dumbo (though at this point he’s just known as Baby Jumbo) is a disappointment when he’s born, looks-wise. Maximilian Medici, owner-ringmaster of the Medici Brothers Circus, is expecting the little elephant to make him a fortune, but those enormous… Dumbo (2D) Read More
CABOOM! Canada’s greatest stuntman rides into the new Toy Story 4 trailer
*** Read my 4.5/5 review of Toy Story 4 now *** Say hello to KEANU REEVES, I mean Duke Caboom, Canada’s greatest stuntman – and he’s everything you could want from a stuntman, only he can’t actually do the stunts that feature in his commercials. He certainly looks the part though, with a handlebar moustache… CABOOM! Canada’s greatest stuntman rides into the new Toy Story 4 trailer Read More
There’s a new Aladdin trailer and I’m dyeing
UPDATE 12 March 2019: New trailer for Aladdin! Check it out below. I don’t care what anyone else thinks, I like it. And if no one else goes to see it at least I can sit in the cinema in glorious solitude, singing “A WHOLE NEW WORRRLLLLDDDDDDD…” without worrying about scaring anyone else there. The… There’s a new Aladdin trailer and I’m dyeing Read More
The Florida Project 4 stars
The Florida Project (the name comes from the Disney corporation’s name for Disney World while it was in development) is a gorgeous and glorious, fun and funny child’s eye view of life in the shadow of the Magic Kingdom, its darker side never shirked from but presented as a simple matter of fact. 6 year… The Florida Project Read More
Coco 4 stars
Coco is an extraordinary feast for the eyes, and rather a delight for the ears too. It’s a deliciously colourful experience, from the prettily embroidered dresses of the women in 12 year old Miguel’s family; to the glowing candles and orange marigolds filling the graveyard on the Day Of The Dead; to the Land Of… Coco Read More

Beauty And The Beast (2D) 3.5 stars
“Think of the one place you’ve always wanted to see” says the Beast to Belle, as he shows her a magic book of the world in his incredible library – and off they go to plague-ridden Paris, which wouldn’t be my choice for a free holiday of a lifetime with a gazillionaire prince, especially an ugly one, but there you… Beauty And The Beast (2D) Read More
Beauty And The Beast: Belle Is A Belter
Disney’s upcoming live action version of Beauty And The Beast is out next month and has got incredible social media buzz behind it. I was never into cartoons as a child and didn’t watch Disney movies. So I tend not to have the “OMG they’ve changed it too much” or “OMG it’s just a word for word remake” reactions that… Beauty And The Beast: Belle Is A Belter Read More
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story 4 stars
OK despite the website title (cautionspoilers), and my name (Sarah Spoilers), I am going to give you a warning – POTENTIAL SPOILERS! I’m not aiming to, but sometimes I get carried away and I know just how into Star Wars people are, simply from the number of people on social media who disappeared for a week until they could… Rogue One: A Star Wars Story Read More
Moana 4 stars
Moana sounds like a hyper realistic British TV spin-off about a barmaid from world’s most depressing soap “Eastenders” doesn’t it, but no – it’s Mo-Anna (though the Anna bit is pronounced in that weird Anna-from-Frozen way which sounds like Ah-Nah and leaves us Brits going “It’s short A followed by Na you fools!”) Moana is… Moana Read More
