Quick Movie Review – ‘Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again’

SPOILERS ALERT!!!

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

And I have seen…‘Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again’!

(laughs) So…yeah! Why? Why?! Simply, just why? Why was this movie made? Did it have to be made? There was no reason to. I mean, yes it’s supposed to celebrate 10 years of the first ‘Mamma Mia!’ movie. But did that justify for a sequel to get made here? Why was this movie made? Why? Just why?! Continue reading

Quick Theatre Review – ‘Fiddler on the Roof’ (Everyman Theatre Company)

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

As my parents and I saw the Everyman Theatre Company production of ‘Dad’s Army’ at the Open Air Theatre Festival in Sophia Gardens, Cardiff, it seemed fair to see the stage production of ‘Fiddler on the Roof’. We saw this stage production last Friday in the evening and we definitely had a good time. Continue reading

Quick Movie Review – ‘La La Land’

la_la_land_film

Hello everyone! 🙂

I’ve now seen the movie ‘La La Land’ at the cinema this year for January 2017! I greatly enjoyed seeing this film! It’s a modern-day movie musical, but has the classic flavour of some of the movie musical hits from the 1930s, 40s, 50s and 60s! It’s a movie that has jazz music and lots of colour in it!
