TYLER’s THOUGHTS
In 2008, a young man and his uncle teamed up in a harrowing adventure to find a missing person in the “center of the earth”. Fast forward four years to 2012, and the same young man has apparently caught the travel bug once again. This time, he joins forces with his stepfather in an effort to locate his long lost grandfather on a mysterious and remote island off the coast of Palau. Journey 2- The Mysterious Island headlines a jam packed week of new releases with seven big titles in total. Let’s have a look at each one in more detail;
