Saw this last week at one of the preview screenings and really enjoyed it. This film came across as very endearing and easy to relate to. It was also quirky with the dance scene and splitscreen to show expectation vs. reality and unpredictable in that the ending didnt follow suit of the traditional rom-com happy ending. And as many have mentioned before, it had a great soundtrack - I particularly liked the karaoke scene with JGL singing here comes your man hehe. Thumbs up from me too o/

And sure enough, they put a code out this morning for the film tonight. It is being screened in a few different locations, so maybe those who missed out will get tickets.

A lot of the Cineworlds that are listed in the magazine are missing from the list now that the code is out. 14 screenings now instead of 23 :confused:

The person that was complaining on the Total Film forum was after Milton Keynes (originally listed but not now) so will probably not be very happy about it.

We saw the preview to '500 Days of Summer' last week, and I really enjoyed it. Thought it was a unique romantic comedy and would watch it again! A big thumbs up from me too o/

I'm now looking forward to the next film that is due to come out on Total Film. Hopefully they will update the website soon enough!

It's been ages since I've watched a romantic comedy and not been disappointed. Part of it was the role reversal, part was the great acting, part fantastic direction.

So far it's the only free preview film that I've seen that I would watch again.

I saw this movie a week ago and to be honest didn't expect much but was pleasantly surprised! It is very unique, quite funny and overall just a lovely film. Totally worth p*ying for!
