Casper (1995) 59% 4/5 EDIT “Based on the old American cartoon and comic book Casper the Friendly Ghost, the movie is a terrific mix of live action and the superb wizardry of Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Entertainment and George Lucas’s Industrial Light & Magic.” – Movies4Kids Oct 3, 2025 Full Review Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale (2025) 91% 3/5 EDIT “It may have taken two forgettable hours to get there, but if this really is a final goodbye to Downton Abbey, at least it is a warm one.” – Digital Spy Sep 4, 2025 Full Review Pee-wee's Big Adventure (1985) 78% 4/5 EDIT “It’s all completely bonkers in a way that kids will love, and a lot of the enjoyment depends on whether you love the man-child that is Pee-wee or find him squeakily irritating. Watch and decide for yourself…” – Movies4Kids Jul 28, 2025 Full Review DuckTales, the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp (1990) 66% 4/5 EDIT “Unlike many movies based on twenty-minute TV shows, this actually has a well-developed plot that speeds by.” – Movies4Kids Jul 16, 2025 Full Review Explorers (1985) 49% 3/5 EDIT “Directed by B-movie fan Joe Dante, this was a flop at the box office, perhaps because it was quite quirky and never lives up to the fun of the first hour.” – Movies4Kids Jul 8, 2025 Full Review Always (1989) 70% 3/5 EDIT “Best pal John Goodman steals the show, and Audrey Hepburn (in her last screen role) gives him a run for his money as an angelic guide, while both Hunter and Dreyfuss just manage to stave off the syrup to produce a romantic tale of everlasting love.” – Radio Times Apr 4, 2024 Full Review Six Days, Seven Nights (1998) 40% 3/5 EDIT “It's enjoyable thanks to the attractive screen presence of Heche and Ford, but director Ivan Reitman fails to capitalize on his leads' chemistry.” – Radio Times Feb 2, 2024 Full Review The Last Boy Scout (1991) 46% 3/5 EDIT “It's very similar to Shane Black's previous scripts, but the action and the fast and funny one-liners almost make the film a five-star, must-see movie in the vein of Lethal Weapon and Die Hard.” – Empire Magazine Aug 4, 2023 Full Review Dead Shot (2023) 70% 3/5 EDIT “While it makes for bleak viewing, it does boast strong performances from the cast.” – Digital Spy May 12, 2023 Full Review The Mother (2023) 43% 3/5 EDIT “Jennifer Lopez is back in her element as the Tough Chick You Wouldn’t Want To Mess With (see also Hustlers, Out Of Sight, Enough) in the slick if slightly silly Netflix action thriller The Mother.” – Digital Spy May 12, 2023 Full Review A Good Person (2023) 57% 3/5 EDIT “Writer/director Zach Braff’s well intentioned but predictable drama A Good Person is saved by another stunning screen performance from Florence Pugh.” – Digital Spy Apr 28, 2023 Full Review Peter Pan & Wendy (2023) 63% 3/5 EDIT “This isn't a movie that will thrill those who love the book or previous versions of the story. But if you're looking for an easy watch – and an hour and a half of Jude Law brilliance – it's definitely worth a try.” – Digital Spy Apr 28, 2023 Full Review Seven Kings Must Die (2023) 82% 4/5 EDIT “If you loved The Last Kingdom as a series, you’ll be very pleased with this final slice of medieval warrior life.” – Digital Spy Apr 14, 2023 Full Review Renfield (2023) 58% 3/5 EDIT “It all sounds like a pretty good movie, doesn’t it? And it would be, if more time had been spent on Renfield and Dracula’s relationship.” – Digital Spy Apr 14, 2023 Full Review Murder Mystery 2 (2023) 46% 3/5 EDIT “While we could criticise it for being a simple, untaxing piece of fluff, that's actually what recommends it. It's one of those movies where you can sit back, relax and let it wash over you – and celebrate the daftness of it all while you do.” – Digital Spy Mar 31, 2023 Full Review Everybody's Talking About Jamie (2021) 81% 3/5 EDIT “A fun film adaptation of the stage musical, Everybody’s Talking About Jamie captures the positivity, humour and sparkle that made the theatre show such a likable hit.” – Movies4Kids Jun 28, 2022 Full Review Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022) 73% 3/5 EDIT “While In The Multiverse of Madness isn’t quite a horror movie, it certainly has horror elements that may come as something of a shock to younger viewers (and their parents). ” – Movies4Kids May 5, 2022 Full Review Morbius (2022) 15% 2/5 EDIT “The action sequences are forgettable, a blur of CGI punches and jumping sequences in which Morbius leaves a trail of streamy ribbons in his wake that are supposed to show his flight but instead look like the remnants of a retired cheerleaders pom-pom.” – Movies4Kids Apr 1, 2022 Full Review I Like It Like That (1994) 89% EDIT “The film demands to be taken on its own terms as a romantic comedy. The message that Lisette can do much better on her own without the help of any of the men in her life is well argued.” – Sight & Sound Mar 2, 2022 Full Review Encanto (2021) 92% 4/5 EDIT “Feisty, funny, vulnerable and brave, Mirabel is a terrific Disney heroine, and her adventures will remind animation fans of Moana and Braves Merida, and she is just as likeable and enjoyable to watch as they both are.” – Movies4Kids Feb 11, 2022 Full Review Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021) 93% 4/5 EDIT “Tom Hollands third outing in the Spider-Man costume is the one weve all been waiting for an action-packed, well-thought out adventure that is what every comic book movie should be: fun.” – Movies4Kids Feb 11, 2022 Full Review Sing 2 (2021) 72% 3/5 EDIT “Sing 2 is not desperately original or exciting and with a running time of nearly two hours its quite long for an animated family film but kids who liked the first movie should find enough to enjoy in this follow-up...” – Movies4Kids Feb 11, 2022 Full Review Uncharted (2022) 41% 3/5 EDIT “Uncharted is a diet version of Indiana Jones that coasts by on the charisma of its star, Spider-Mans Tom Holland” – Movies4Kids Feb 11, 2022 Full Review Ron's Gone Wrong (2021) 82% 4/5 EDIT “This has familiar themes - fans of The Iron Giant, Big Hero 6 etc will notice similarities here - but it's delivered in a fresh, bright and heartfelt way that is just lovely” – Movies4Kids Oct 12, 2021 Full Review Voyagers (2021) 25% 2/5 EDIT “Colin Farrell brings some weight to the proceedings but even he can't distract from the predictable teens-gone-wild-in-space plot.” – Movies4Kids Oct 12, 2021 Full Review
