Larva Island (2018)
Hilarious old school family fun
The humour isn't PC these days. Mild violence in the form of the characters slapping each other (Laurel and Hardy used to do that and I loved them as a kid), lots of burping and farting... this was the norm for boys humour when I was young. This might not be for everyone but I love it and my 4 year old is addicted. There's another show called Larva which is based in a city but this series is the best. I hope there are more seasons to come.
Bird Box (2018)
Excellent if you ignore the hype
There was a lot of hype around this movie when it was released. Tends to happen a lot in the media now. It was said this was a terrifying horror movie and many people have poured scorn on that.
It depends on your point of view of course. I didn't think it was terrifying but don't know a film that is (discounting watching Salem's lot as a 13 yr old). If you don't have any sort of expectation going into the movie and discount the ever present hype that surrounds movies these days you might like it. I thought the story was excellent. There were a few plot holes which isn't unusual but I thought it was a solid movie and a gripping story. I particularly liked the young actors that played the children. They were totally believable and made the movie for me. The cast was solid. I really enjoyed this movie and my only regret is that I hadn't read the book.
