What would you do if you suddenly found a big singing crocodile in your attic? Discover the story of Lyle Crocodile as he sings his heart out with the Primm Family across GCC cinemas from October 20th. The live-action/CGI musical comedy is based on the best-selling book series by Bernard Waber and stars Academy Award-winner Javier Bardem, Constance Wu, and Shawn Mendes. When the Primm family moves to New York City, their young son Josh struggles to adapt to his new school and new friends. All of that changes when he discovers Lyle - a singing crocodile who loves baths, caviar, and great music - living in the attic of his new home. The two become fast friends, but when Lyle's existence is threatened by their evil neighbor Mr. Grumps, the Primms must band together with Lyle's charismatic owner, Hector P. Valenti, to show the world that family can come from the most unexpected places. There's nothing wrong with a big singing crocodile with an even bigger personality. This fall's premiere night of this ultimate family film was held at Reel Cinemas Dubai Mall. In collaboration with Planet Entertainment, families were met with many surprises, including a spectacular magic show, a groovy dance performance, and a special set from ten-year-old DJ Michelle, who also delighted guests by playing a curated mix from the film's official soundtrack. Ahead of the premiere, our friend Lyle has been busy making new friends in the region. Kris Fade and his beautiful family shared a good time with him, singing the movie's theme song quite literally At the top of the world, the Burj Khalifa. Lyle is the pet we wished we all had, similarly to The Moshaya Family – Mohammad, Anas, Yusuf, and Iman, who recreated the famous bathtub scene with Lyle in the movie. Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile has been rated PG by the Motion Picture Association. Head to the nearest cinema to sing out loud with Shawn Mendes as Lyle! The family-adventure movie starring an eight-foot-tall reptile is presented by Empire International, the exclusive theatrical distributor of Sony Pictures and Columbia Pictures. PR/ Expat Media
