Review: Epic in 3D #epicthemovie

I remember seeing the trailer for this film when we went to watch The Croods and already making a mental bookmark that Epic would be worth watching. Thankfully my spidey senses didn’t disappoint! From the makers of RIO and Ice Age, this animated family film will be a hit with the entire family. I took [...]
