Dumb and Dumber To
3.5/5
Starring: Jim Carrey, Jeff Daniels, Rob Riggle, Kathleen Turner
15A
There is one thing that left me completely flabbergasted even before I'd watched an inch of footage from this sequel, and that's the fact that the original is 20 years old. Sorrry, but where did those two decades go? Not very far if you're names are Lloyd Christmas and Harry Dunne.
The beauty of this concept is that you could dip into any time in the lives of these two dumb dudes and nothing will have changed because, well, there's simply no enlightening these guys. The original film was part of a multi-movie launch pad that made Jim Carrey one of Hollywood's biggest breakout stars of the 1990s, while Jeff Daniels had already made a huge impression almost a decade earlier in Woody Allen's Purple Rose of Cairo.

Annie
2.5/5
Starring: Jamie Foxx, Rose Byrne, Cameron Diaz, Quvenzhane Wallis, Bobby Cannavale

Night At The Museum: Secret Of The Tomb
1.5/5
Starring: Ben Stiller, Robin Williams, Owen Wilson, Dan Stevens, Ben Kingsley, Ricky Gervais, Steve Coogan
PG
In Night at the Museum:Secret Of The Tomb, Ben Stiller once again plays Larry the security guard who is effectively custodian of the lives of his lively exhibits. As the movie begins, his night at the museum in New York goes horribly wrong. In the middle of a meticulously-choreographed routine, the exhibits refuse to do as instructed. All mayhem breaks loose as the characters wreak havoc and generally upset the celebs who are in attendance.
It transpires that the museum's magic tablet - found during an exhibition in Egypt decades ago – is corroding. This means that the very thing that causes the exhibit characters to come to life is threatened.
In search of a solution, Larry travels to .......
