SUPERMAN

Right, before I start – a couple of disclosures. Disclosure #1 I thought the film was great. Disclosure #2 I am not at all knowledgeable about DC comics, so may well have missed many of the references in the film. Like I had NO idea who Green Lantern or Mister …

JURASSIC WORLD REBIRTH

It’s been 31 years since I last saw a Jurassic Park film. At the time we were in Delhi (where, after many decades, we now live again) and went to see the just-released-in-India Hollywood film “Jurassic Park” at the cinema in Priya…the cinema is still there, although much more glam …

THE GENTLEMEN

Well, we all thoroughly enjoyed Guy Ritchie’s “The Gentlemen”. “We”, by the way, were a multi-racial party of 4: an Indian, a Singaporean, an Anglo-Indian & a Brit. And we watched the film in Bangkok, with many Thais & Chinese in the audience, and everyone seemed to laugh a heck …

Dolittle

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. What a truly underwhelming film. The cast of “Dolittle” is beyond stellar : Emma Thompson, Ralph Fiennes, Jim Broadbent, Antonio Banderas, Selena Gomez, Rami Malek, Octavia Spencer, Marion Cotillard, John Cena, Frances de la Tour…I mean, gosh, whew, yes, whew, WHAT a stunning line …

ROCKETMAN

Disclosure time. I am card carrying Elton fan. Loved him & his music for years. And I’ve always admired the way he got his life back on track, and has used his fame and fortune to help AIDS research. Plus he’s adopted 2 children. Plus he loves football. What’s not …
