One of the first films for the kiddies (and hopefully us adults) in 2014 is the re-emergence of classic animated sitcom The Adventures Of Rocky and Bullwinkle spinoff characters, MR. PEABODY & SHERMAN. The duo land their very own film in a time-travelling adventure in which the genius pooch adopts a small child, only to see him grow up and cause chaos in the time/space continuum.
Mr. Peabody, the most accomplished dog in the world, and his mischievous boy Sherman, use their time machine—the Wabac—to go on the most outrageous adventures known to man or dog. But when Sherman takes the Wabac out for a joyride to impress his friend Penny, they accidently rip a hole in the universe, wreaking havoc on the most important events in world history. Before they forever alter the past, present and future, Mr. Peabody must come to their rescue, ultimately facing the most daunting challenge of any era: figuring out how to be a parent. Together, the time-traveling trio will make their mark on history.
MR. PEABODY & SHERMAN is directed by Rob Minkoff and features the voices of Ty Burrell, Max Charles, Stephen Colbert, Ellie Kemper, Ariel Winter, Allison Janney, Stephen Tobolowsky, Mel Brooks, Leslie Mann, Dennis Haysbert and Stanley Tucci. It’s released 7th February 2014 here in the UK and a month later on March 7th in the US.

Craig was our great north east correspondent, proving that it’s so ‘grim up north’ that losing yourself in a world of film is a foregone prerequisite. He has been studying the best (and often worst) of both classic and modern cinema at the University of Life for as long as he can remember. Craig’s favorite films include THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION, JFK, GOODFELLAS, SCARFACE, and most of John Carpenter’s early work, particularly THE THING and HALLOWEEN.
