Disney Film Review – ‘The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea’

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

Recently, my parents and I revisited the 1989 Disney film ‘The Little Mermaid’. We enjoyed seeing that film again to commemorate my late sister Bethan. We also checked out the direct-to-video sequel to that film, ‘The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea’, which we saw on Disney+. Does the sequel match to what’s in the original film?

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

It’s time to talk about another Disney film I saw on Disney+ lately, and it happens to be the 2006 film ‘Eight Below’. I did see the trailer for ‘Eight Below’ on a Disney DVD one time – 2006’s ‘The Shaggy Dog’, in case you’re wondering – but I never got around to seeing it until now. What did I make of it?

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

I’ve seen the film ‘Free Guy’ on the big screen! This was well worth checking out and it’s my fourth cinema experience this year! ‘Free Guy’ was originally meant to come out in 2020, but because of the Covid-19 pandemic – please keep safe – the film was delayed by a year, which is a real shame. 😦 Continue reading
