Yeah I might do that, just say I forgot to print my ticket. Hopefully it works. Especially if I come right before it starts when they already know that X number of people haven't showed up.

If you do have any other preview printouts, you could try pretending to search amongst them, or maybe show them to prove that you are a regular? Or perhaps Celini is thinking there might be another member at your cinema with a +1 spare?

Saw Drive this week. Dont like overly violent films so hated this one and I thought it was boring too! There was popcorn on the seats, that is the first time we've ever found that. Is this a usual thing?
Has anyone else seen this and not liked it as it seems that lots of people were really looking forward to it.
Oh yes, and the cinema was only approx 60% full.

Speechless! That was awesome. What a powerful film. A real slow-burner but then explosive amounts of violence. Have just come out from seeing it and to say that I feel strange is an understatement. Wasn't sure whether I wanted to cry or be sick. Realised it was because I had been so engrossed in the movie that the jump back to reality was taking longer than usual - quiet sunny Sunday streets.

Has to be one of the best movies this year for me. Definitely not everyone's cup of tea though.

Brilliant!

Great cinematography. Great soundtrack. Amazing realism.

Easy 10/10.

Woooow talk about tension! I forgot to breathe a handful of times!

I don't know what is it about this movie, as I did not think the acting nor the directing individually were spectacular... but put them together and it's terrific!

It just ruined my weekend though, my stupid fat grin has gone and my mood is somewhere between dark grey and pitch black.

Definitely the best movie in a long time for me; 9.5/10

(Should have been 10, but people chuckling and gasping @Clapham PH really bothered me, and i hated the foul-breathed guy seating behind me!)
