Re: Deepwater Horizon

Thought this film had a really good story line, which was mainly from the perspective of one of the employees, being Mike Williams. The cast was strong and well acted on the whole. The actions sequences added to the suspense without overkill on the CGI side. It also seemed to remain fairly faithful ...

Re: Sing Street

A feel good movie, which has nostalgic moments from a fashion and music standpoint. There are also some half decent new songs, which keep the music backdrop moving along. The start is perhaps a bit slow, built builds well and overall is a very watchable story.

Re: Sisters (2015)

Not that great. although lots of people in the cinema were laughing out loud. There were some funny bits, but overall a disappointment, especially as Amy Poehler has been a rising star this year. Let hope here next film will be better.

Re: The Martian

For me this was a really good film. It mixed good storytelling, great acting and some funny lines, not to mention great landscapes on the big screen. I would give it 8 out of 10 and would recommend it. Even my wife who does not like Sci-Fi at all, thought it was fine, so that is as close as high ...

Re: Trainwreck

I was not expecting this to be that good, however I found the whole film engaging and very funny in parts. Well worth a watch and Amy Schumer was excellent in the lead.

Re: Spy

I used my first free tickets from this forum to see this movie and would say I have mixed views about the film. Its funny in parts, but for me Melissa McCarthy has never got back to the performance she gave in Bridesmaids, where she was hilarious in my view. Also the story line could have been ...

Re: Mad Max: Fury Road

If you are wavering on whether to see this or not, my response would be if you like the idea of a 2 hour full on assault on your senses, then this is for you. Throughout the entire film I was waiting for a break in the action, but that never really happened and the time passed very quickly. There is ...

Re: Introduce Yourself...

Hi, this site is a really great idea, especially as it aimed at movie fans and not just a generic forum offering freebies, so congratulations to whoever started this up. That said, I do like a freebie and free cinema tickets are always welcome;-) I have a pretty wide range of genres, so will watch ...
