On Sunday 26th July London Mums Magazine young and less young reporters were invited to review the new PAW Patrol: The Dino Movie, a prehistoric adventure that younger fans will love. There aren’t many better ways to spend a Sunday morning than watching the excitement on your children’s faces as they walk into a PAW Patrol premiere.
We were invited to the all-media gala screening of PAW…
London Mums Magazine contributors were invited to the UK premiere of Animal Farm on 12th July. George Orwell’s novella has been studied by generations of readers, but transforming such a complex story into an animated family film is no small task. The result is an entertaining and accessible adaptation that introduces younger audiences to Orwell’s world, even if it doesn’t quite deliver the…
I attended the multimedia screening of Spider-Man: Brand New Day with the same flutter of excitement my son gets when he spots a new Marvel Lego set. And Tom Holland could swing past my window any day of the week. Now 30, a little broader in the shoulder, and flexing some seriously grown-up biceps, he’s clearly been doing more than just eating Peters Pasta. But as I settled in with my popcorn…
There are books you admire, and then there are books that quietly shape the way you see the world. For me, The Odyssey belongs firmly in the second category. I first met Odysseus, or Ulisse, as we called him in my Italian classroom, as a teenager, and I’ve been slightly in love with the crafty old wanderer ever since. So when I heard Christopher Nolan was taking a crack at it, I felt the same…
As a mum of two superhero obsessed children, I went into Supergirl (2026) hoping for a fun family film with plenty of action and a positive role model. What I got was something a little deeper than expected and, in many ways, more rewarding.
What stood out most to me was Kara herself. She’s brave and powerful, but she isn’t perfect. She makes mistakes, struggles with difficult…
There comes a point where every franchise risks overstaying its welcome. After Toy Story 4, another sequel felt unnecessary. Yet Toy Story 5 manages to find a reason to exist.
The film explores what happens when the world changes and the things that once gave us meaning begin to disappear. While previous entries focused on being outgrown by children, this chapter widens the lens. The toys…
I sat through The Devil Wears Prada 2 with a glass of something robust and a heart full of hope. Two hours later, the glass was empty and the hope was dead. This film is a disaster. A beautifully dressed, star-studded, expensive looking disaster.
And nobody is saying it out loud. Because the first one was fine. It was original enough, fun enough, quotable enough. But this sequel? It has…
On Monday 1st of June London Mums Magazine sent a group of teenagers to review the Masters of The Universe below is what they thought of it:
Masters of the Universe is a film that balances adventure, action, and comedy in a way that makes it accessible to a wide audience. Based on the classic franchise He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, which gained popularity through the 1980s animated…
I walked into Moss & Freud expecting glossy fashion nonsense. A supermodel. A grumpy old painter. A million?pound portrait. What could possibly go wrong?
Everything. And nothing. And that is the problem.
This film is not bad in the way The Devil Wears Prada 2 is bad. It is not boring in the way most sequels are boring. No, Moss & Freud is something far more interesting. It is a film…
The Sheep Detectives premiere brought mystery, fun and family thrills to London families on 26th April, when London Mums Magazine team enjoyed a fantastic afternoon, with the event turning into much more than just a film screening. Before the movie began, children were treated to a fun-filled pre-show party with games, activities and gifts, creating a brilliant atmosphere and plenty of excitement…
