Movies With Mum

In their final outing for the year, mum and son head out to watch Little Women on Boxing Day. Seeing an adaptation of Louisa May Alcott's classic story feels like a Christmas tradition, but how does Greta Gerwig and Saoirse Ronan's take on the material compare to earlier renditions? Does it still have that festive touch? And will there be a festive ice cream flavour on hand? Due to

In a special festive two-sons edition of MWM, we head off to our local world of cine to watch the third Jumanji movie. Or is it the fourth? Or the second? In any case, the whole cast returns from the surprise hit of 2017 with Danny DeVito and Danny Glover as elderly and permanently bewildered hangers-on. Can lightning strike twice? Will Gary have a different ice cream flavour? Foll

Mum and Son prepare for the holiday season with this nostalgic trip back into an 80s festive classic: Gremlins! It's got everything a mum would want in a Christmas movie: a small town in the snow, a young couple taking their first steps towards romance... and slimy green monsters going on a murderous rampage! Will mum enjoy this 4K restoration of the 35 year-old movie? Will it stan

Mum likes a cosy drawing room murder mystery, so Son dutifully takes her to see 'Knives Out' – director Rian Johnson's homage to the star-studded Agatha Christie adaptations of the seventies... and perhaps his opportunity to get back on solid ground after his lacklustre Star Wars movie. Will Mum guess who did it in the first ten minutes? Will German Chocolate Cake flavour be back

Christmas in November?! Mum and son venture out for Emma Thompson's festive rom-com 'Last Christmas' to see if Emilia Clarke can bring the seasonal cheer when she's not roasting innocent children with dragon breath. Will this Wham-fuelled tale of love in the aisles of a year-round Christmas novelty shop warm our cockles and roast our chestnuts, or will it leave us frosty and Scroog

Mum and Son return to the relative safety of their local world of cine, only to find themselves in the middle of a war in the middle of the Pacific. Will a British rapper with a chewing gum fetish be able to single-handedly scupper the Japanese invasion of America's west coast with the help of Patrick Wilson's intelligence and Woody Harrelson's heroic leadership? And will there be

Inspired by the intrepid adventures of balloonist Felicity Jones and meteorologist Eddie Redmayne, Mum and Son venture where they've never gone before: to an IMAX screening in their non-regular cinema. Will they enjoy this turn-of-the-century adventure into the dizzying heights of the upper atmosphere? Will this new unexplored cinema have ice cream? Find out!

Mum and Son brave blustery winds to revisit the Overlook Hotel with Mike Flanagan as their guide. Yes, it's Doctor Sleep – an adaptation of Stephen King's sequel to The Shining, which dares to take on the task of sequel-izing Stanley Kubrick's cinematic vision while also satisfying the author. No mean feat, but if anyone can do it, the director behind The Haunting of Hill House a

The Terminator franchise has returned from the past to terrify the future, with the welcome return of Linda Hamilton as Sarah Connor and Arnold Schwarzenegger still promising to be back despite having 72 candles on his last birthday cake. But is it any good? Mum and Son explore the latest action offering from James Cameron... and the ice cream counter... so you don't have to!

Mum and son take a break from the heavy hitting dramas, action spectaculars and horrors to check the latest Aardman claymation comedy, Shaun the Sheep: Farmageddon, before the cinema is flooded with children. Apologies for the heavy rain noise! The heavens really opened during this one...
