Mind of Mine - Zayn Malik

Posted 12:53pm Sunday 24th April 2016 by Millicent Lovelock

When Zayn started releasing singles post-One Direction I was worried that it was going to take him an album and a bit to get into the swing of things. I wasn’t overly impressed by ‘Pillowtalk’, although it is a catchy tune I don’t think it is all that cohesive, and Read more...

Posted 12:58pm Sunday 24th April 2016 by James Tregonning

Rating: A- Don’t Starve was originally released for PC in 2013, and was pretty successful, getting a PS4 port the next year. It’s a survival game in which you, a scientist named Wilson, have meddled with powers beyond your ken and have been sucked into an unknown world, where you have Read more...

Hunt for the Wilderpeople

Posted 12:28pm Sunday 17th April 2016 by Jessica Thompson

Rating: A+ I never used to be a fan of New Zealand films, though I could see their value, they seemed to follow their own rules that I didn’t understand (seeming a bit too small budget for my liking), until I saw Hunt for the Wilderpeople.  Directed and written by the glorious Taika Read more...

Kung Fu Panda III

Posted 12:33pm Sunday 17th April 2016 by Lisa Blakie

Rating: B For whatever reason the original Kung Fu Panda was quite an obsession for me.  When it was released in 2008 one of my Mum’s friends had lent us some illegal copies of new release films to cure our boredom over weekends. When I saw Kung Fu Panda for the first time, Read more...

The Lion King

Posted 12:35pm Sunday 17th April 2016 by Samuel Rillstone

Rating: A+ Disney's The Lion King brought a whole new generation into the world of heart-crushing, soul destroying feelings over a death in an animated movie. Mufasa’s death (I would say spoiler alert but I mean, c’mon) to me is one of the most emotionally heart-wrenching pieces Read more...

Sleepless in Seattle

Posted 12:42pm Sunday 17th April 2016 by Nita Sullivan

Rating: A- I last rewatched this epic 1993 romance on Easter weekend, when TV2 was running old movies all day for the public holidays, and to be honest, it was as good as when I watched it the first time.  90s movie romance power couple Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks are the two leads in Read more...

How to be Both

Posted 12:58pm Sunday 17th April 2016 by Hayleigh Clarkson

This is an incredible novel full of wit, sarcasm, and characters that are a touch arrogant and temperamental. Ali Smith’s How To Be Both has won the 2014 Costa Novel of the Year award, the 2015 Women’s Prize for Fiction award and was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize in 2014. It is a Read more...

Batman v Superman

Posted 12:38pm Sunday 10th April 2016 by Nita Sullivan

Rating: D Ok, so, Batman v Superman was just terrible. During the exhausting 2hr 31m runtime, the film follows the plight of both an unpopular Superman and ageing Batman as they initially battle each other, and then combine forces to take down a villainous Lex Luthor. To be honest, I walked out Read more...
