From Christmas Presents To a Killer Called Joe: DVD Picks of the Week

What a selection we have for you this week! We've got an unusual slasher film, a heart-breaking drama, a comedy about parenthood and a Matthew McConaughey movie that isn't a chick flick. And that's not to mention the festive film we're recommending for your whole family...

Crying

Snuggling up with the little ones

Arthur Christmas (G) – It’s never too early for a bit of festive fun! In this animated movie, Santa’s youngest son has to rescue the day by making sure a forgotten present gets delivered in time for Christmas morning.

Laughing

What to Expect When You’re Expecting (12A) – In this comedy drama, five intertwined couples experience the many highs and lows of parenthood. Starring Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Lopez and Elizabeth Banks.

Being glued to the edge of your seat
