Primal

In cinemas now

Animal attack movies are often predictable affairs but when it stars a famously oddball actor, you know you will be entertained. Academy Award winner Nicolas Cage plays Frank Walsh, a hunter and collector who must stop a ghost jaguar (yes, you read that right) and an evil assassin from terrorising a cargo ship. Think of it as Life Of Pi without the life lessons but with more guns, escaped animals and shouting (from Cage). Pure escapist entertainment, in other words.
