Films to watch on NOW TV, Disney+ and Amazon Prime Video this weekend, by jameskingmovies
August 14, 2020 - 10:46 BST James King It’s a spectacular week on the small screen, with eye-popping new adventures from Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham plus Hugh Jackman’s musical extravaganza The Greatest Showman. Prepare to be wowed.
The plot, of course, is less important than the fun on-screen and THE NEXT LEVEL has entertainment in droves. This is a packed two hours of weird creatures and wonderful landscapes - from ostriches to monkeys, from mountains to dunes - all played at a breathless pace. No wonder kids love it. And if its gags you want then the little and large chemistry between Hart and Johnson is even more chucklesome than in the last film.
Why was THE GREATEST SHOWMAN such a hit? So many reasons. The songs by La La Land’s Pasek & Paul are instant earworms and the visuals by director Michael Gracey are electrifying. The performances too - especially from Hugh and Michelle Williams - are full of charisma. Perhaps ultimately though it’s the film’s celebration of inclusivity and togetherness that really sticks in your head. Maybe Barnum wasn’t like that in real life but ‘real-life’ is the last thing this wants to be.
