Moustache Lockdown Streaming Survival Guide Part 19 | Coming 2 America

As the lifting of the lockdown looks to be on the horizon - I said "looks to be", I didn't say "is" - it's time to return to a place we haven't been to in 30 years. That's right, in what could be one of the last entries in our Moustache Lockdown Streaming Survival Guide, we are going back to Zamunda! There's still time to check out our Lockdown Streaming Survival Guide in its entirety, which you can find by clicking here . It has been thirty years since Prince Akeem (Eddie Murphy) journeyed to America in search of his true love, and in that time he and Princess Lisa (Shari Headley) have raised three beautiful daughters. But under Zamundan law only a man can ascend the throne, and with the threat of war with the neighbouring Nextdoria looming, Akeem finds himself under pressure from the ailing King Jaffe (James Earl Jones) to produce a male heir. So when Baba the witch doctor (Arsenio Hall) has a vision of an illegitimate son living in Queens, Ake

Sneakers | Average Guy Movie Review

Martin Bishop (Robert Redford) leads a group of specialists - including a former CIA officer (Sidney Poitier), a conspiracy theorist/electronics technician (Dan Aykroyd), a young genius (River Phoenix) and a blind phone phreak/sound expert (David Strathairn) - that test the security of banks and other secure facilities.

Their only way out is to find the person who really wants the device, and prevent them from using it. Sneakers may feel a little dated (OK very dated), but that thankfully hasn't affected it's entertainment value.

Something that was done to prevent audiences thinking this was a movie for kids. Even today it's still a lot of fun, thanks mostly to some quirky casting. These guys all have

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story Official Trailer 2

The final trailer for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story has landed (watch it below), and what an epic trailer it is! Last year Episode 7 made for a very Merry Christmas indeed and it looks like Disney will deliver the same with Rogue One this year. I'm not going to go on and on, I want you to watch the trailer. But Star Wars looks to be returning to the glory of its heyday, and what a story to do it with. After almost 40 years we will finally see how Princess Lea got hold of the Death Star plans. Clearly a lot of hard work and dedication have been put in to this project and I look forward to seeing the final result. If Rogue One is a success, will we get to see (and I'm paraphrasing here) many Bothans die to bring us the plans for Death Star 2? A little morbid I know but what the hell. Until then enjoy Rogue One's Trailer 2 and get excited for its release in December. Let us know what you think of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story by leaving a comment below or find us on
