Cinema Experience – ‘Matilda’

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

On Saturday 21st of March, I enjoyed seeing ‘Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory’ at Vue Cinema in Cardiff. On Saturday 28th of March, I enjoyed seeing my favourite Roald Dahl film adaptation – the 1996 film ‘Matilda’ – at Vue Cinema in Cardiff. Both were worthwhile! Continue reading

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

Cinemas often have limited re-releases of classic Christmas films for people to check out every year in December. Over the years, I’ve had a fair share of cinema experiences of Christmas films like ‘The Polar Express’, ‘Elf’ and the first two ‘Home Alone’ movies. Continue reading

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

For four nights over the past weekend, my Mum and I have been enjoying the last four ‘Mission: Impossible’ films directed by Christopher McQuarrie, starring Tom Cruise, at Cineworld in Cardiff. That wasn’t planned since we intended to just see two ‘M:I’ movies.

Cinema Experience – ‘Back to the Future: 40th Anniversary’

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

I seem to be doing quite a lot of ‘Back to the Future’ reviews this year! I mean, more than usual. Not that I’m complaining, since it’s been great to celebrate ‘Back to the Future’s 40th anniversary more than once. And that’s more than revisiting the film trilogy itself in 2025. Continue reading

Cinema Experience – ‘Sense and Sensibility’ (1995)

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

Last weekend, my parents and I checked out the 30th anniversary re-release of the 1995 film ‘Sense and Sensibility’ at the cinema. We had a great time checking out this film on the big screen and it’s amazing to think that it was 30 years ago that this movie was made. Continue reading

Cinema Experience – ‘The Polar Express’ (20th Anniversary)

Hello everyone! 🙂

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

It’s Christmas time! 🙂 Usually, I would say that to start off a series of four brand-new Christmas reviews per week in December, but that’s sadly not happening this year. Thankfully, I can say it to start off what I hope will be a small collection of cinema reviews. Continue reading
