No Comments »Johnny English Strikes Again, but I wish he wouldn’t. The original Johnny English was average, and I couldn’t stomach more than 20 minutes of Johnny English Reborn, so god knows why we’re getting another one of these. They’re clearly released so far apart that no-one’s actually clamouring for one. In ‘Johnny English 3‘, a a […]
Paddington 2: This Time It’s Personal… no, that was Jaws IV: The Revenge, but both feature individuals who are little alien in their respective environments because they’re getting hassled by ‘the man’.

Just accept it. Okay, the first one in 2014 was quite funny, but it didn’t need a sequel. However, money talks, so the bear from darkest Peru is back. Voiced by Ben Whishaw, Paddington is now happily settled with the Brown family in Windsor Gardens, where he has become a […]
I Want My Wife Back is what Ben Miller‘s character, Murray, is after since, up until a certain point, he’s the only one unaware of any problems with his marrage as he’s too wrapped up in his work. And so stars a ’70s/’80s-style sitcom full of gentle humour based on misunderstandings, including very light cringe […]
