The Comebacks We Can’t Get Enough Of
With Men In Black International hitting cinemas – and Mary Poppins Returns charming a whole new generation on Virgin Movies right now (available to rent from €4.99), we’re in a right nostalgic mood these days! In fact, there’s a whole load of beloved characters who’ve swooped back into our lives of late; here’s a bunch of our favourites!
PADDINGTON & PADDINGTON 2
Available to rent now on Virgin Movies from €2.99
The recent reboot saw Peru’s most famous export reunited with the Brown family more than 50 years since the character first surfaced – and we were charmed all over again! Still polite, personable, and with a penchant for a marmalade sandwich or ten, he hasn’t changed too much – thank goodness for that!
21 JUMP STREET & 22 JUMP STREET
Available to rent now on Virgin Movies from €2.99
This big-screen revisit centres around the terrific twosome of Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum – a far cry from the 1980s police procedural best known for handing Johnny Depp his big break! Action packed and fantastically funny, it’s everything a buddy cop movie should be – as is its sequel!
ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS – THE MOVIE
Available to rent now on Virgin Movies from €2.99
Patsy and Eddy strutted into our lives close to three decades ago, but they’re still just as outstanding – and outrageous – as ever! Proof that you’re as young as you feel, their antics picked up exactly where the source material left off, and brought their unique brand of brilliance to a whole new generation!
ROBIN HOOD
Available to rent now on Virgin Movies from €4.99
OK, so the story’s been knocking about a bit (since somewhere around the 14th century, we reckon!), but the tale of Sherwood Forest’s finest is one for every generation! The latest to don the tights is Taron Egerton – and he’s certainly out to give Hoods of yesteryear a run for their money!
MIAMI VICE
Available to rent now on Virgin Movies from €2.99
Crockett and Tubbs are icons of the screen – but this bombastic big-screen treatment brings the buzz to a whole new level! Colin Farrell and Jamie Foxx assume the roles as the stylish arm of the law in a film that’s beautifully shot and brilliantly exciting – a fitting tribute to our long-loved heroes!
