Mary Poppins (1964)

I had possibly seen this film many years ago, however when I watched it on DVD I knew most of what was going to happen but could not remember the ending, possibly due to the fact that this film is a true classic and has been around for years I think everybody will have seen parts if not all of this film.

This film hails from the classic musical era and has some classic songs including a word that I will not attempt to spell but now even appears in the dictionary this shows the impact of the film. I think that if you have not seen it then you should endeavour to give it a go, there is a feel good element and a few good laugh scenes.

A 5 star masterpiece of filming and a must see for all the family.

Despicable Me (2010)

DVD - 10th April 2011

I got this DVD for my birthday after going to see the film in the cinema when it came out. Since I saw the first trailer for this film I knew I would love it, it is really pitched at my level which says a lot about my mental age. I enjoyed this film on DVD just as much as I did in the cinema.

Steve Carell and Russell Brand star in this film as the voices of Gru and Dr Nefario and i am not a fan of either of them, don't dislike them just do not look forward to their films. However in this they are bot fantastic, Dr Nefario is so different to Russell Brand you do not know it is him, so do not let the stars put you off seeing this film.

The laughs keep coming and the bad guy turned good story has been fairly well used recently but the minions and Steve Carell's portrayal of Gru with the girls bringing their own charm this is a must see film in my opinion.

This gets my 5 star seal of awesome it is great film for all the family and should be enjoyed on a regular basis.
