AT THE MOVIES #894   OUT OF THE COMFORT ZONE AGAIN

 

Simon Morris reviews three films he wouldn’t necessarily have gone to by choice – a light-hearted road movie from Iran, a French couple who bonded over their love of volcanoes, and a film about Superman’s dog.   He really likes two of them…

 

 

Fire of Love remembers French celebrity volcanologist couple Katia and Maurice Krafft.   Their passion for volcanoes is only matched by their love of each other.   Directed by Sara Dosa (Tricky Dick and the Man in Black) and narrated by Miranda July (Me and you and everyone we know).

 

Hit the road is a family road movie from Iran - the mishaps when a family tries to get the oldest boy a ticket to a better world – and yes it is a comedy!  With breakout star 8-year-old  Rayan Sarlak.

 

 

And DC League of Super-Pets wonders what would happen if Superman’s best friend was a dog called Krypto.   With the voices of Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart and Jemaine Clement as Aquaman.
