Inside Amy Schumer Review

Amy Schumer …. What can I say? She is incredibly crude but piss yourself laughing funny.

While not everyone will agree and not everyone will like her provocative sense of humour, I love it. Inside Amy Schumer had me in stitches from the first sketch to the ending credits. It is no wonder it is an Emmy Award winning comedy show.

Amy looks like the sweet, wholesome girl next door but she will definitely put that assumption to bed very quickly. She is joined by several well-known actors and comedians in this cracker TV series – Jerry Seinfeld, Paul Giamatti, Dennis Quaid, Jeff Goldblum, Kathy Najimy, Justin Long, Amber Tamblyn and many more.

Roadshow Synopsis –

Season 1: Inside Amy Schumer is the new series featuring Schumer’s provocative and hilariously wicked mind, as she explores topics revolving around sex, relationships, and the general clusterf*ck that is life through a series of scripted vignettes, stand-up comedy, and man-on-the-street interviews.

Season 2: The unapologetic Amy Schumer returns with another witty-gritty season, digging deep into gender stereotypes, erectile dysfunction and finger blasting, with cameos from A-listers Zach Braff, Paul Giamatti, Janeane Garafalo, and more.

Released: 28/10/2015 * RRP $34.95

2x WINNERS!!

Magic Mike XXL Review + Giveaway

By 22 Comments

Magic Mike XXL

You’ve seen Magic Mike and have waited for the new release of Magic Mike XXL with anticipation. Will it live up to the hype of the original or will it be a let down?

I will be honest; I didn’t race out to see the first Magic Mike like my girlfriends did. I waited for it to hit DVD, or maybe it was when it was screened on TV, I’m not sure. Either way, I had a feeling I wasn’t going to be entranced by it like my friends were.

Surprisingly, I loved it! It was great how they introduced each of the characters and how it was more than just stripping.

Magic Mike XXL review

Now let’s talk about Magic Mike XXL. While I still enjoyed this movie, I feel like the first one was better. Magic Mike XXL was more gyrating against each other than anything else, in my opinion. There was still a story behind it but it wasn’t as entertaining as the previous film. Even though I don’t rate it as highly as Magic Mike, it was definitely still enjoyable and a movie I would watch again.

The cast doesn’t disappoint either! Even though Matthew McConaughey is no longer seen, the film is full of popular faces. You will find – Channing Tatum, Matt Bomer, Joe Manganiello, Amber Heard, Andie McDowell, Elizabeth Banks and Jada Pinkett Smith.

Roadshow Synopsis – Picking up the story three years after Mike bowed out of the stripper life at the top of his game, Magic Mike XXL finds the remaining Kings of Tampa likewise ready to throw in the towel. But they want to do it their way: burning down the house in one last blow-out performance in Myrtle Beach, and with legendary headliner Magic Mike sharing the spotlight with them. On the road to their final show, with whistle stops in Jacksonville and Savannah to renew old acquaintances and make new friends, Mike and the guys learn some new moves and shake off the past in surprising ways.

Released: 21/10/2015 * RRP $39.95 * Rating: MA15+

Prize Includes: 1x Magic Mike XXL DVD. RRP $39.95.

October ABC Kids DVD Giveaway

By 28 Comments

ABC Kids DVD Giveaway

October has seen some great DVD releases for kids from ABC. We have been enjoying two shows in particular; The Furchester Hotel and Boj: Boj & The Booms.

What are they about?

 

The Furchester Hotel

The Furchester Hotel is a series for 3-6 year olds set in an ‘almost’ world-class hotel run by a close-knit family of cheerfully chaotic monsters. (My daughter likes to refer to them all as Elmo or monkeys). The series, which is designed to encourage creative problem-solving, introduces brand new characters and also welcomes the beloved Elmo and Cookie Monster from Sesame Street.

As guests arrive at the hotel, they are greeted by monster owner Funella Furchester, her loving husband, Furgus Fuzz, and their daughter, the unflappable Phoebe Furcheste-Fuzz. Elmo, Phoebe’s cousin and Cookie Monster join the Furchester family at the hotel. Completing the ensemble is Isabel, a furry bell monster – guests won’t get any attention until she dings to announce their arrival!

Released: 7th October 2015 * Demographic: Preschool * RRP: $14.95

Boj: Boj & The Booms

When Boj the bilby pops up in Giggly Park to play with his new buddies he brings all his fun Boj-ey ways with him! Boj loves to help his friends and neighbours with brilliant Boj-a-boom ideas to make stuff from other stuff. In the title episodes, Boj and his buddies form a pop band. When Rupa and Mia walk out due to musical differences Boj needs a Boj-a-boom idea for something they can all play together.

Entourage The Movie – Review

By Leave a Comment

Entourage The Movie

I will admit, I never watched Entourage when it was on TV. For some reason it never appealed to me. That and the fact I never really knew what the show was about, beyond some famous guy and his entourage.

So when I put the Entourage The Movie into the DVD player, I didn’t really know what to expect. I had no idea whether I would even know what was going on as I had never seen the series. I must say, I was pleasantly surprised.


The star packed cast creates a comedy that has been highly anticipated, especially after the success of the TV series. Reuniting the show’s original cast and introducing some extra Hollywood favourites, Entourage is back in action!

As years have passed, so have their ambitions for life but this doesn’t make them any less exciting. Vincent Chase (Adrian Grenier) amicably ends his marriage after 9 days and believes that he rushed into it because he is looking for something more meaningful in life. This is when he realises he wants to not only act but also produce his next film. Not thrilled on the idea, his super agent-turned-studio head, Ari Gold (Jeremy Piven) reluctantly agrees. The team goes over their $100 million budget which forces them to navigate the cut throat world of Hollywood.

With a sex tape, pro fighter, failing career, baby daddy’s, billionaire rednecks and of course the making of this film; the long-time friends have adventures galore.

I can honestly say I really enjoyed this movie! What I was expecting and what I watched was two completely different things. The movie makes me want to bulk watch the TV series!

Cast includes: Kevin Connolly, Adrian Grenier, Kevin Dillon, Jerry Ferrara, Jeremy Piven, Haley Joel Osment, Ronda Rousey, Emily Ratajkowski, Billy Bob Thornton, Piers Morgan, Jon Favreau, Pharrell Williams, Liam Neeson, Kelsey Grammer, Mark Wahlberg, David Spade, Jessica Alba and many more!

Released: 16 September 2015 * Rated: MA

The Wiggles: Emma! & Giggle and Hoot DVD Giveaway

By 22 Comments

ABC Kids have something to suit every child and their interest. For my daughter, it is The Wiggles, Emma. My boys never had an interest in The Wiggles at all so it has taken me time to get my head around hearing their songs played regularly around the house.

Emma, the yellow Wiggle is by far her favourite. Poppet loves how she dances, sings, has gorgeous outfits and there are bows a plenty. Emma has become extremely popular among little girls; which is great that she now has her own DVD being released September 2nd 2015, The Wiggles: Emma! Other recent releases can be found here: ABC Kids Dvds.

B2 loved Giggle and Hoot more than anything else (well Chuggington was a close second) and besides a few extra characters joining the Giggle and Hoot team, it is exactly the same. Full of great energy and love.
