With box office takings down once more, James Cameron-Wilson says that #5 Kraven the Hunter is the worst ever Marvel opening. It's a mixed bag but is often entertainingly ludicrous with Russell Crowe having fun as a Russian villain. He found the anime Lords of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim often utterly baffling but it got better as it went on, even if he never wants to see anything Lords of the Ring-related ever again. On Netflix, however, he warmed to the animated That Christmas, co-written by Richard Curtis. It's a sweet and sentimental tale aimed at the whole family that does what it says on the tin.
