Such a pleasant surprise to see Jolie starring in a movie again. Jolie and the fact that I’m generally partial to productions about first responders is the reason I’m watching.

The trailer for the long awaited sequel I’d almost forgotten about, Maleficent – Mistress Of Evil just landed.

Starring Angelina Jolie, Michelle Pfeiffer, Ed Skrein and Elle Fanning; director Joachim Rønning’s movie will further explore the complex relationship between Maleficent and Aurora, as they face new threats to the magical land of the Moors.

I’m certainly happy to see Jolie on the big screen again. And as my favourite evil queen of all things.

Can’t wait for the visuals, and to watch the dynamic between Maleficent and Pfeiffer’s Queen Ingrith.

Juno Temple, Kae Alexander, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Harris Dickinson, Teresa Mahoney, Imelda Staunton, Lesley Manville and Sam Riley aslo star.

Maleficent – Mistress Of Evil Release Dates: October 18th, 2019 (US & UK)…

Directed by Nora Twomey, The Breadwinner is about a headstrong young girl in Afghanistan who disguises herself as a boy in order to provide for her family. Saara Chaudry, Laara Sadiq and Shaista Latif star.

Something about the look and feel of this animation reminds me of the kinds of stories and children’s books I used to read as an eight-year-old. Therefore, I simply must watch.

The Breadwinner Release Dates: November 17th, 2017 (US)…

First They Killed My Father – A Daughter of Cambodia Remembers is the latest from director Angelina Jolie.

Starring Sareum Srey Moch, Phoeung Kompheak and Sveng Socheata, the film tells the story of Cambodian author and human rights activist Loung Ung and the horrors she suffered under the rule of the deadly Khmer Rouge.

This is one of my favourite trailers of 2017 so far. The absence of dialogue and all that we don’t yet see makes the imagery that much more chilling. I wonder how this will compare to the child soldier story of Cary Joji Fukunaga’s  Beasts Of No Nation (2015).

I have no doubt that this will be moving and inspiring, in a way that’s similiar to Jolie’s last biography, Unbroken (2014)

First They Killed My Father – A Daughter Of Cambodia Remembers Release Dates: September 15th, 2017 (US)…

KUNG FU PANDA 3 (2016): For The Overwhelming Cuteness…

I’m certain that most people, especially children will find Kung Fu Panda 3 very entertaining indeed.

Directed by Alessandro Carloni and Jennifer Yuh Nelson, Kung Fu Panda 3 has a lovely message about fulfilling your destiny, doing the right thing, family, friendship,  etc, which is beautiful. Nevertheless, I, for one, watched Kung Fu Panda 3 mainly for the humour. The story is good, too, but the cuteness of the animals was another big draw – and on that basis, the movie fully delivered.

Bryan Cranston’s Li voice and the ‘egg laying out of fear’ joke/sequence are definite highlights.

Watch it for the reasons above and because it’s truly good and fun.

Jack Black, Dustin Hoffman, Angelina Jolie, J.K. Simmons Seth Rogen, Jackie Chan and Lucy Liu are among the the key cast.

Happy Film Loving,
