Odeon Point Square
Here are some top picks for what to watch this week:
The Grinch
Dr Seuss’ Christmas classic returns to the big screen in this is new animated adaption. The oddly heartwarming tale of the green meanie trying to sabotage Christmas is a must see this December.
Aquaman
DC’s latest hero to hit the big screen is Aquaman. The highly anticipated action epic starring Jason Momoa and Patrick Wilson will be sure to wow all the family.
Mary Poppins Returns
Emily Blunt will be taking up Julie Andrew’s classic role as Mary Poppins when Mary Poppins Returns hits the cinema. This sequel to the family classic should shape up to be ‘practically perfect in every way’.
Fantastic Beasts: the Crimes of Grindelwald
Dive back in to J. K. Rowling’s Wizarding World with Fantastic Beasts: the Crimes of Grindelwald. This followup to 2016’s Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is sure to be a magical experience for all.
Creed II
Michael B Jordan and Sylvester Stallone step into the ring to deliver knock-out performances in the eighth instalment in the Rocky franchise. This must be on the radar of any sporting fans this season.
