Never seen it, but Veronica and I bought it for our granddaughter a while back and she very much enjoyed it

This one is a new release Michael. Much better than the first one.

Certainly a film worth buying in 4k to enjoy watching later.

I reckon by the time my boring old plain HD TV bites the dust it will be 1024k TV and my eyesight won't be good enough to tell the difference from 420p  :(


I watched a recording of The Sweeney this morning. That is so poor you can hardly tell the characters apart but I still enjoyed it.  :)

The Sweeney wasn't broadcast in colour but it was filmed in colour. Judging by the video quality in 8mm....

Despite the poor film quality got to be a better bet than reruns of Friends.

Been watching  "Jumanji the next level" for the second time this afternoon. Having a very poor memory found it rather confusing on the first viewing. The second viewing I quite enjoyed.

Came across a new series called Tales From The Loop which is quite interesting..Watched the new Call Of The Wild last evening. A favourite book from childhood along with White Fang, both by Jack London..Even though it got the full treatment, it was spoiled for me by enormous use of CGI. Preferred the 1972 version but neither was as good as the picture I saw in my mind as a boy reading them..

My wife and I watched "The Reader" last night.

Worth a look!

I'll be giving that a go sometime soon. I did try it a few days, ago but it was a duff download and kept stopping.

Far better than the first one, this one well made and good fun. Looks like there will be a third one before long.
