Holiday Viewing

So, it's that time again...that's right folks, school holidays are back. Yikes! I feel like they just ended and I can't believe they're here again! Never fear though, there are some great kids films out at the moment, so if you need an hour or so of mind numbing entertainment, or if it's raining or something think about going to check some of these out. 

I have yet to see any of them other than CINDERELLA, so I can't truly comment on whether they are great or not, but they do look like fun and I am planning to go and catch them over the holidays with some little people in tow. 

Here's a list of what's showing at my local cinema this holidays that will be good for the little and maybe not so little ones!


CINDERELLA - G 105mins
A live action re-telling of my favourite fairytale starring Lily James, Richard Madden, Cate Blanchett and Helena Bonham Carter

The Sun Theatre in Yarraville is doing a Prince and Princess Day on Wednesday the 1st of April at 11am and 1pm. Click here for more details



SHAUN THE SHEEP - G 85mins
When Shaun's mischief inadvertently leads to the Farmer being taken away from the farm, Shaun, Bitzer and the flock have to go into the big city to rescue him, setting the stage for an epic adventure. 





THE SPONGEBOB MOVIE: SPONGE OUT OF WATER - PG 93mins
During a fight between Krusty Krab and Plankton, the secret Krabby Patty formula disappears and all of Bikini Bottom goes into a terrible apocalypse, blaming Spongebob and Plankton. Spongebob and his nemesis Plankton team up with the help of a time machine and go back in time to discover a diabolical above water Pirate has the formula and they set about getting it back. 





THE BOOK OF LIFE - PG 95mins
A vibrant fantasy-adventure, tells the legend of Manolo, a conflicted hero and dreamer off on an epic quest through magical, mythical and wondrous worlds in order to rescue his one true love and defend his village. 





TINKERBELL AND THE LEGEND OF THE NEVERBEAST - G 76mins
An animal fairy named Fawn believes you can't judge a book by its cover, or an animal by its fangs, so she befriends a huge and mysterious creature known as the NeverBeast. While Tink and co. aren't so sure about this scary addition to Pixie Hollow, the Scout Fairies set out to capture the monster before he destroys their home. Fawn must take a leap of faith if she hopes to rally the girls to save the NeverBeast. 






HOME - PG 94mins
A loveable misfit named Oh is from another planet and on the run. He forms an unlikely friendship with an adventurous girl named Tip who is on a quest of her own. Through a series of comic adventures with Tip, Oh comes to understand that being different and making mistakes is all part of being human. And while he changes her planet and she changes his world, they discover the true meaning of the word HOME. 



NB: Aside from CINDERELLA this is the film I am most excited about for this school holidays! I'm going to see this even if I don't have any little people to take along with me! 


And for those slightly older kids, opening this Thursday is the highly anticipated FURIOUS 7 with midnight screenings happening at the Sun Theatre 12:01am Thursday morning (click here to book). And for the really keen beans, you can catch FAST & FURIOUS 6 just before it on Wednesday night at 9:15pm (click here to book). 



Well, that's all from me folks! There's enough in there to keep you and your little ones occupied for a good couple of days! I'll update you as I get to see them on whether or not they're worth forking out a small fortune for, but I do thoroughly recommend CINDERELLA and I am very excited about HOME, so maybe that can be your starting point!

  1. Thanks for that! Takes the brain work out of having to research. You might have to drag Aquila along to Home with you! And maybe I'll come along too :)

    1. No worries! I love watching trailers, so it's a good time for me sussing them all out! Was planning a Thursday or Friday trip with Aquila to check it out if you don't go before that!
