Cape Town – Disney's new princess, Moana splashes onto the big screen today. With heavyweights like The Rock (Dwayne Johnson) and Lin Manuel it's no surprise it got a 5 star rating.
There's also a Christmas movie, a local slapstick comedy and Kate Beckinsale returns to fight vampires.
Here are the 4 new films releasing in South Africa today:
Movie: Moana
Our rating: 5/5
Short review: Filled with magical characters, big musical numbers, and what I think are some of the best visuals Disney has produced, Moana really is an adventure everyone needs to see!
Movie: Underworld: Blood Wars
Our rating: 2/5
Short review: With a little less spunk than its predecessors, Underworld: Blood Wars is still pretty much what you expect from the franchise, in all its leathery goodness.
Movie: Almost Christmas
Our rating: 2/5
Short review: Almost Christmas has all the festive trimmings but it lacks the cheer and heart.
Movie: Jonathan
Our rating: 3/5
Short review: While a visually beautiful film, Jonathan might not be everyone’s cup of tea.
