Based on the hugely successful animated TV series <em>Dora the Explorer<\/em>, this spectacular live-action adventure grossed over $120m at the global box office as the 62nd biggest film of last year. In this feature-length film, Dora has grown up in the jungle with her explorer parents, but now she faces a new challenge unlike any she\u2019s survived before: high school! After a sudden, dangerous turn of events, Dora soon finds herself back on familiar ground as she and her best friend, Boots the monkey, must lead Diego, a mysterious jungle dweller, and a group of kids from her school on a perilous trek through the jungle to rescue her parents and uncover the truth behind the legend of the lost city of gold.<\/p>\n<h3>Good Boys<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/zPXqwAGmX04\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>After being invited to his first kissing party, 12-year-old Max (Jacob Tremblay) is panicking because he doesn\u2019t know how to kiss.

Williams) decide to use Max\u2019s dad\u2019s drone \u2013 which Max is forbidden to touch \u2013 to spy (they think) on a teenage couple making out next door. But when things go ridiculously wrong, the drone is destroyed. Desperate to replace it before Max\u2019s dad (Will Forte) gets home, the boys skip school and set off on an odyssey of epically bad decisions involving some accidentally stolen drugs, frat-house paintball, and running from both the cops and terrifying teenage girls. Produced by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, this\u00a016LSDV rated movie is an adults-only kind of adventure.<\/p>\n<h3>Dumplin<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/u1cdJA6jxtA\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Willowdean (&#8216;Dumplin&#8217;), the plus-size teenage daughter of a former beauty queen, signs up for her mom&#8217;s Miss Teen Bluebonnet pageant as a protest that escalates when other contestants follow in her footsteps, revolutionising the pageant and their small Texas town.
