    The Black Cauldron

    ★★★½

    Very early on I commented 'wow, this really sounds like Ghostbusters!' and sure enough the score is by the great Elmer Bernstein! My wife and I really enjoyed this movie. Definitely more 'peril' and disturbing imagery than your usual Disney movie. My wife commented that the story is very similar to the A Court Of Thorns and Roses which she is currently reading and seems very popular right now. I think this is underated and a bit of an overlooked…

    Grosse Pointe Blank

    ★★★½

    Must have missed this one back in the 90s. Very enjoyable tongue in cheek rom-com with Tarantino-esque twist to it. Hyper violent in places, quirky and sweet in others. Really enjoyed it. Worth a watch certainly.

    ★★★★

    Really really enjoyed this. Some absolutely magical moments with so many legends in one room. Fantastic documentary. The part with Michael Jackson singing solo when he first arrives at the studio (and is the only artist there) is just spellbinding. Highly recommend this. Part of music history that is well worth your time.

    The Hateful Eight

    ★★★★

    The tension builds! Very slowly at first. To the point where some people may stop watching it. But stick with it! I am a sucker for movies where people are stuck in a room. Makes for amazing character development and must have a strong script to work effectively. This has all that and some great performances from those involved. Top film.
