2016 has been a great year for animated movies so far, with great movies from the big studios Of Disney, Pixar and DreamWorks in the form of Zootopia, Finding Dory (which opens today!) and King Fu Panda 3. We’ve also got a lot of upcoming releases to look forward to, like Moana, The Secret Life of Pets and now Storks, the …

Five new movies open in South Africa today, with the emphasis for the most part being on secret identities, crime and action. Captain America: The Winter Soldier: Screening 2D, 3D and 3D IMAX is the latest Marvel Comics movie and the second solo Captain America flick.
