The Secret Life Of Pets Opens Huge

One set of adorable animals made way for another this weekend at the US box office, as reigning champ Finding Dory was finally deposed and Illumination's The Secret Life Of Pets took its place at the top of the charts with a studio-estimated $103.1 million. Movie Review: #TheSecretLifeOfPets- The new arrival surpassed expectations and proved to be another big winner for the company which already has its Despicable Me and Minions films up and running. Plus, given the team's commitment to lower budgets (the new movie cost around $75 million, which is around half some of the competition), it's already headed to profitable territory. The second place position is a still under contention, though the estimates show The Legend Of Tarzan currently holding on with $20.6 million, ahead of Dory in third on $20.3 million. Pixar and Disney are still happy with the film though, since it's now the animation house's top grossing film and has passed Captain America: Civ

Movie Review: #ThePurgeElectionYear

The Purge Election Year feasts on the flesh of a bloody good political thriller. Review by Matt Cummings As the nation once again prepares for Purge Night, its “New Founding Fathers of America” are not a happy bunch: there is growing concern that the one-night-a-year bloodfest has been targeting the poor in an effort to keep the costs of welfare and other programs down. Moreover, a new challenge has arisen in the form of Purge survivor Sen. Charlie Roan (Elizabeth Mitchell), who leads a group demanding an end to the event. Desiring to see her growing influence eliminated, the NFFA institutes a new rule: all citizens (including government officials) are now able to be hunted on Purge Night. As dark forces conspire against her, Roan has an ace up her sleeve: her bodyguard/head of security Leo Barnes (Frank Grillo), who has relocated from Los Angeles after surviving two years prior. Together with a collection of anti-Purge patriots, Leo and Charlie battle the NFFA and Pur
