Disclosure Day: Classic Steven Spielberg with ET-like aliens meet Indianna Jones adventure. A tale of the good guys spilling the beans on decades of government cover-ups to finally reveal that we are not alone. Entertaining - yes. Believable - why the hell not?! ****
The Odyssey: A blockbuster that's every bit enthralling as they say. Choose the biggest screen possible to enjoy a romp through mythology with some modern-day "war, what is it good for?" angst thrown in. *****
Michael: I skipped this for weeks for the movie's failure to address Michael Jackson's... creepier side. But everyone raved, so I went. It's good. It finishes when Jackson finally freed himself from his father's tyranny, which probably explains a lot about his life. The last 15 minutes are pretty much just a concert, but his nephew Jaafar is a spitting image.***
Toy Story 5: Wonderful escapism with the smart humour that has kept this franchise playing for years. This time the toys, including a balding, pot-bellied Woody, are battling against the dumbing down of playtime as screens replace imagination. Poignant and pertinent, giving parents a great opportunity to have timely conversations with their kids. *****
