Audience favourite villains-turned-good-guys are back in the animated sequel The Bad Guys 2. The slick animal crew reunite for another wild, high-stakes heist, but this time with bolder moves. Featuring a star-studded voice cast including Sam Rockwell, Awkwafina, Craig Robinson and Marc Maron, this is a fun adventure cinema outing for the whole family. On at cinemas, 3D, D-BOX and 4DX.
The reboot of slapstick gold movie The Naked Gun reintroduces the beloved bumbling detective Frank Drebin Jnr, portrayed by Liam Neeson, following in the footsteps of his father. On a mission to prevent the police department closing down, he must solve a murder case, forcing him to deploy all his special skills. Also starring Pamela Anderson, Paul Walter Hauser and more, and on at cinemas and D-BOX. Its absurd and over-the-top, but a highly enjoyable ridiculous fest.
