Janice Forsyth discusses Jurassic World, plus critics Nigel Floyd and Chris Fyvie review the film along with new releases The Look of Silence and London Road.

It's film review day here on The Janice Forsyth Show and we will be discussing, 'Jurassic World' - in which visitors to the Jurassic World theme park must run for their lives when the 'genetically engineered' Indominus Rex and other dinosaurs go on a rampage! 

Film Critics, Nigel Floyd and Chris Fyvie will share their thoughts on the film and on 'The Look of Silence' - Joshua Oppenheimer's remarkable film about Indonesia's mass murders of the Sixties - a shattering voyage into the jungle of human nature. They will also discuss London Road - an impressively-mounted adaptation of a musical first staged by the UK's National Theatre (NT) which artfully merges 'verbatim theatre' into staccato-song to convey the reactions of Ipswich residents to the fact that a serial killer of prostitutes was living in their midst in late 2006.

Later in the show, legendary director John Boorman discusses the release of his new film 'Queen and Country' , and, to tie in with the DVD release of Kajaki, Janice hears from the debut feature director, Paul Katis, who offers an insight into his contemporary war film, - a portrait of a harrowing real life event in the midst of the Afghanistan conflict. 

All that and crime writer Nicola Upson discusses 'London Rain' the sixth instalment in the series she has created featuring the crime fiction author Josephine Tey.
