The Nut Job review

First question: hasn't this movie been done before?! Whilst watching the 3D animation by Canadian director Peter Leponitis, I couldn't shake the fact that The Nut Job bares an uncanny resemblance in storyline to 2006's Over The Hedge.

Cute little animals with huge cartoon eyes and even bigger teeth on a seemingly impossible mission to get food for the winter? The leader of the gang of woodland creatures is trying to redeem himself to the rest of the group? Oh, it's about a racoon, a squirrel, a dog and some other not-so-important animals? And they're all voiced by actors who really shouldn't be associating themselves with such twaddle? Yeah, they're definitely the same movie.

How To Train Your Dragon 2 review

[*Warning* Watching this film may cause obsession with all things dragon and result in crippling disappointment that there is a) no such existing thing and b) you do not, and cannot, in fact, ever ride one.]

When How To Train Your Dragon came out in 2010, no-one would have expected that it would become one of the most well-loved animations of the last decade, but it almost instantaneously became a fan favourite after children (and adults) everywhere fell in love with the movie's heart-felt charm and witty wonder.

The Lego Movie review: Everything is awesome!

Nostalgic, funny with a little bit of heart, would be the perfect, albeit simple, way to sum up The Lego Movie. With truly amazing animation and top-notch voice acting, this film shouldn't be stereotyped as a film that only children will love - adults will certainly enjoy it too! For a toy that has been around for over 60 years, it inevitably had a vastly varying age group to try and impress, and it's safe to say The Lego Movie will disappoint only a [very picky] few.
