When five friends inadvertently cause a deadly car accident, they cover up their involvement and make a pact to keep it a secret rather than face the consequences.

A year later, their past comes back to haunt them and they’re forced to confront a horrifying truth: someone knows what they did last summer…and is hell-bent on revenge.

As one by one the friends are stalked by a killer, they discover this has happened before, and they turn to two survivors of the legendary Southport Massacre of 1997 for help.

Starring Madelyn Cline, Chase Sui Wonders, Jonah Hauer-King, Tyriq Withers, Sarah Pidgeon, Billy Campbell, Gabbriette Bechtel, Austin Nichols with Freddie Prinze Jr., and Jennifer Love Hewitt.

Visually there are a large number of arresting moments where the spectacle lives up to the modern standard of sensory overload. The human (and fish) element however struggles slightly to keep pace. It was always going to be a big ask to add anything new to a story so well-known.

The musical numbers do help at times to lift things and it’s great to have movie songs with real live memorable choruses and not just verse after verse after verse. This is aided by the strong singing voice of Halle Bailey who plays the titular character Ariel.

The mesmerising amount of visual information in the underwater scenes makes those moments the film’s most vibrant element. Save some money on an aquarium and just loop those scenes on the telly. The film is fairly family friendly but the main conflagration at the conclusion is intense and puts an entertaining coda on the spectacle that is The Little Mermaid.

The youngest of King Triton’s daughters and the most defiant, Ariel longs to find out more about the world beyond the sea and, while visiting the surface, falls for the dashing Prince Eric.

While mermaids are forbidden from interacting with humans, Ariel must follow her heart. She makes a deal with the evil sea witch, Ursula, which gives her a chance to experience life on land but ultimately places her life – and her father’s crown – in jeopardy.

The film stars singer and actress Halle Bailey (“grown-ish”) as Ariel; Jonah Hauer-King (“A Dog’s Way Home”) as Eric; Tony Award® winner Daveed Diggs (“Hamilton”) as the voice of Sebastian; Awkwafina (“Raya and the Last Dragon”) as the voice of Scuttle; Jacob Tremblay (“Luca”) as the voice of Flounder; Noma Dumezweni (“Mary Poppins Returns”) as The Queen; Art Malik (“Homeland”) as Sir Grimsby; with Oscar® winner Javier Bardem (“No Country for Old Men”) as King Triton; and two-time Academy Award® nominee Melissa McCarthy (“Can You Ever Forgive Me?” “Bridesmaids”) as Ursula.

Disney’s The Little Mermaid is coming to cinemas May 2023!

The girl in question is Agnes (Pauline Etienne), the headstrong daughter of the school’s new French teacher played by Denis Ménochet (Inglourious Basterds). As the budding romance between Agnes and Winchester progresses, it soon runs off the rails. From this point on things lunge towards the slap stick before it finishes with serious intent.

The film successfully mixes humour with a number of worthwhile life lessons. It’s all filtered through that established British schoolboy sensibility and this keeps things quirky and the end squarely in that old battler tradition.

Through circumstance Bella (the dog) has to leave town to avoid running afoul of the local dog catcher (John Cassini) and ends up hundreds of miles from home. This leads to a long journey back where Bella learns about life on the road and befriends a baby cougar amongst other adventures.

She lives through numerous perils as she is hunted by a pack of wild dogs and trying to survive in the wilderness. The film also makes a number of worthwhile comments along the way on topics as diverse as the homeless and military veterans and their difficulty returning to normal life after service.

Try as it might, A Dog’s Way Home tries for epic but ends up a bit average. It’s too by the numbers and also suffers from a less than convincing close. It does however have a lot of cute animal moments and a storyline that does illicit a tear or two of emotional response.
