How To Make A Killing Review

     Have you ever wondered w hat happens when you are the disowned grandson of a dynasty worth billions? How To Make A Killing , directed by John Patton Ford, explores this exact question. From the early trailers it was clear How to Make a Killing was going to be unique, particularly in terms of genre. The film is a fantastic combination of thriller and comedy. This hybrid genre makes How to Make a Killing appealing to a wide variety of audiences, it's not too dark nor is it too comedic it is a perfect balance between the two. But is it a thrilling ride or does it fall flat? Read on for my full review. Glen Powell is at his most charming as he takes on the lead role: Becket Redfellow. Powell's charisma oozes on screen, in what might be one of his best performances. The film starts when Beckets mother Mary (Nell Williams) falls pregnant at age sixteen, is disowned by her father Whitelaw (Ed Harris) and leaves behind her privileged lifestyle rising Becket as a single mothe...

Disney Summer Watchlist

It's finally SUMMER!! Today is the hottest day in the UK so far, it's actually over 30c which is amazing because most of the time England is cloudy, rainy or cold and most of the time summer only lasts for like a week. Now if you have followed me for a while you will know I like a movie watchlist, so I have created a Summer watchlist for you all and guess what? All the films on the list are Disney ones. I am a massive Disney fan, and nothing makes me think of summer more than some of the films on my list. 

Last summer I went to Disneyland Paris (you can read about my trip here). When the sun and Disney magic combine, I truly think Disneyland is one of the most brilliant places on earth - summer for me is about happiness and Disney in the sun is one of my happy places. So that is what inspired me to write this list. Now I have included a mix here such as animated classics: A Bugs Life and The Little Mermaid. Summer themed original Disney Chanel Movies Camp Rock and High School Musical 2 which take me back to when I was at school and would spend all summer in the garden and watching movies. I also included Pirates of the Caribbean for those of us who dream of spending our summers on a white sand beach and fighting pirates. I spent a summer in America working at a summer camp and The Parent Trap brings back all my camp memories (Chestnut Till I Die!!!). I have included The Lion King - now it's up to you which version you can watch, the 1994 classic or the live-action 2019 version (out in UK cinemas 19/07/19), I will be watching both. (So keep an eye out for my review). 

As it's summer and summer is all about relaxing and enjoying being outside there is no timescale to this watchlist - just watch and cross off at your own pace. Make sure you save the list, print it, give it a share and let me know which movie you are watching first!!

Thank you for reading - Let me know in the comments what movies make you think of summer xx 


Also, this year I am attending my first outdoor movie screening at Leeds Castle! I am so excited and cannot wait to share my experience with you all xx
