Pokémon: Detective Pikachu written by Dan Hernandez and Benji Samit is one hell of a film. I was first to judge the film before the first trailer had even landed. As far as video game movie adaptations go, most send me into bouts of depression. There really hasn’t been one good video game adaptation movie,…
Two weeks ago we gave you a sneak peek inside the Alton Towers Dungeon and a look at the Stargazing Pods.Today we bring you our Alton Towers Dungeon review. Back to the Movies were once again invited back to the park on the first day of the 2019 season to experience the final instalment of the dungeon attraction….
I can’t remember the last time I went to a circus, I must have been very, very young and I can’t for the life of me think of a reason why I haven’t been since. As fate would have it driving past Newcastle-Under-Lyme on a journey home one night I saw a huge big top…
This week Alton Towers invited me down to be one of the first people in the world to experience the new Alton Towers Dungeon. A journey through the dark and morbid history of Staffordshire. Guests will be taken through a variety of sequences such as being sentenced by the Bishop of Stafford, surviving the plague,…

From such attractions as Cbeebies Land packed full of child-friendly rides to the adrenaline-fuelled rides for grown-ups and older children alike.

Nineteen years later, filmmaker M Night Shyamalan has finally closed his Unbreakable trilogy. Sam Jackson and Bruce Willis do not skip a beat, re-entering their seminal early 00s characters while James McAvoy expands upon his already career-high performance as The Horde. Shyamalan’s final entry to the journey of David Dunn, Elijah Price, and Kevin Wendell…
A bit too long-winded but still quite entertaining and definitely constructed with considerable narrative skill and cinematic style, Bad Times at the El Royale is a stylish neo-noir mystery that benefits from a great soundtrack, terrific production design (Marin Whist), and slick cinematography (Seamus McGarvey), with strong performances from a cool ensemble. The less you…
John Huston’s The Man Who Would be King is a cinematic feat. It is a remarkable fable, tracking two con men as well as adventures who trek deep into a dangerous land with the design of ruling a region where white men have not set foot since Alexander the Great. The film encompasses engrossing performances,…
Juliet, Naked is the sort of traditional and appealing romantic comedy that has been entertaining audiences for years. We’ve seen the formula before and we roughly know the ultimate outcome; it’s the journey of getting there that has to be unique enough to make it all worthwhile, and that’s why this movie succeeds. Directed by…

It’s that time of year again where Winter Wonderland returns to Stoke-On-Trent. A little slice of Christmas in the heart of Hanley with an ice rink, fairground rides and a fully licensed bar to sit down, relax and soak up the atmosphere. I just wanted to say a huge thank you to Winter Wonderland for…
There’s no denying the technical skill that filmmaker Ari Aster possesses, but I wish I enjoyed Hereditary more than I did overall. Toni Collette was BONKERS AWESOME – she could retire TODAY and go out on an extremely high note and if she’s not bestowed with an Oscar nomination, well, that’ll be a crime. She…
“I wasn’t always Michael Caine. I was born Maurice Joseph Micklewhite,” tells Michael Caine as he recalls his early life in 1960s London. His mother was a housekeeper and father a fish butcher, a trade that Caine was supposed to follow into, but he didn’t because he can’t stand the smell of fish. My Generation,…
