A DVD is always a great present and what a better gift than a feel-good film. The Sapphires DVD (out on 4th March 2013) is brilliant and your mum will sing with joy this Mother’s Day thanks to this perfect DVD gift. It’s a great girlie movie you can watch with your girlfriends too.
Based on a true story this fun and feel-good comedy follows the dreams of four soul-sisters struggling to…
As Wreck-It Ralph storms the UK film charts we’ve got a special interview with the director, Rich Moore, and comedienne and actress, Sarah Silverman.
Q: Firstly, congratulations! Wreck-It Ralph has been nominated for an Oscar! You’re in the category ‘Animated Feature Film’. Are you planning to attend the ceremony?
RM: It’s a very strange thing. There’s nothing like an award show.
Disney’s new release, Wreck-It Ralph, follows an arcade video game villain who is tired of being over-shadowed and decides he wants to change his story. In order to do this, Ralph (voiced by the very likeable John C. Reilly) sets out to win a medal.
He leaves his own world and strides out into a new first-person shooter game, determined to become a hero. Strangely enough, all does not go as…

It’s winter which means it’s cold and frequently raining. This is the time of year when it is acceptable to grab a blanket and snuggle up on the sofa to watch a good film with the kids. It recently occurred to me that a lot of parents with children currently at primary school have not seen family films made in the 90s. Fear not, I have seen pretty much all of them and here is a list of…
Mirror Mirror, released on DVD & Blu-ray 30th July 2012 courtesy of StudioCanal UK, is the best movie about Snow White I have seen so far! Really light-hearted but also filled with action scenes, excellent actors and actresses! This movie is a real gem for both kids and parents and deserves a space in our DVD library.
One of the most beloved stories of all time gets a modern make over and…
You may or may not be aware that I love FENCING as a sport. I started practising sword fighting 2 years ago at the ‘young’ age of 40. What I love the most about this sport is that you can keep practising it until you are very old as it is not aerobic hence not hard on your heart.
It keeps you fit without even feeling the pain of exercising as your mind is too busy working out the…
London Mums’ magazine editor Monica Costa and I were lucky enough to be invited to the UK press conference for What To Expect When You’re Expecting. And it was a line up to die for: Cameron Diaz (CD), Glee‘s Matthew Morrison (MM), the gorgeous Rodrigo Scatoro (RS), Gossip Girl‘s Chace Crawford (CC) and rising star Anna Kendrick (AK). Here’s what they had to say about…
I’m sure we’re all familiar with Heidi Murkoff’s 1985 pregnancy bible. It is probably the most famous guide to pregnancy in the English-speaking world. What To Expect When You’re Expecting, and others in the same series, have sold a staggering 35 million copies worldwide. With a phenomenon like this how long could Hollywood be expected to stay away? And sure enough, in line…
Let’s hope the weather will be good this April 2012. If not, here you go a list of new DVD releases courtesy of Universal Pictures (UK) the kids will love.
Here is what my 5 year old son thinks of these new DVDs.
Rastamouse: Hot, Hot, Hot!
Rastamouse is really funny especially his Jamaican accent…. He’s the coolest mouse in the country (and he is voiced by DJ Reggie Yates).
