King Of The Jungle 1933

Starring: Buster Crabbe

A small boy grows up with lions; he is captured with them and sold to an American circus.

A pre-Tarzan movie but similar in many ways. Crabbe is spot on and I have to say that the effects with the animals, for its time, are amazing. All in all, a really well made film and still to this day, entertaining.         8/10

Tea For Two 1950

Starring: Doris Day

A nearly bankrupt financier promises his niece 25,000 dollars for her new musical show if she can say no to every question for twenty-four hours.

A watched this as a tribute to the marvelous Doris Day who died this week. Happy song and dance movie with loads of great tap routines, one up a staircase my personal highlight.    6/10

Twins 1988

Starring: Arnold Schwarzenegger

A 36 year old man, bred in a genetic experiment as the perfect man, discovers that he has a less than perfect twin brother.

A well known movie which is actually quite amusing in places, mainly down to Arnie's lovely portrayal. The whole idea actually kind of works and the movie is oddly moving in places.  7/10
