Lol. I forgot, you've just got soooooo many screenings to go to in Sheffield. Would be interested to see if you feel differently second time round.

Well that's enough for me not to listen to your recommendations either , we all slowly work out who's taste we're most similar to and follow their recommendations for things.

and yes no mindless violence in Like Crazy so not it's the film for you. :p

I didn't like Drive for those reasons. And no, I did not avoid Like Crazy for that reason. I'm just not really interested in people who can't be together for visa reasons or what not.

I didn't think you listen to anybody's recommendation . :rolleyes: I thought you go to everything you want to see regardless of what people see (and seeing as Sheffield hardly appears on the map for screenings).

Yes but because sheffield is off the map I have to p*y for screenings and use vouchers. So yes I do read what people say about a film and follow the people who I know have similar taste. But yes most free films I go see and decide for myself apart form when they clash like with Haywire/J edgar last week then I watch the trailer to decide.

this was my first 'free movie'. i kinda lost the will to live half way through this movie! 8-)
something positive....hmmmm.. good shots, well shot film, well made.
negative...the two main characters were not the brightest bulbs in the store shall we say.
thinking that over-shooting her USA student visa would not come back to bite her-duuuh- thought she was supposed to be studying in the USA..not International Immigration Law thats for sure! annoying selfish and self indulgent characters...
oh yes, having an affair always makes things better! so, she wasnt studying 'Healthy Relationship Managment' either then!?!?

but, very aware that a free ticket is not to be moned at and i am grateful for it. love stories are generally not my thing...still worth a wqatch though...if all your paint is already dry! 8-)

Haha. I wouldn't go so far as to say that I LIKED Trespass! Just didn't totally hate it. Drive on the otherhand is AMAZING! Have I mentioned that before? Lol. DVD is out next week. Such a powerful film for me.

Like Crazy is a RomCom without the Com. Not a whole lot of Rom either to be fair. Very little substance. Next to no character development. Even the girlies are dissing this so not great as a chick-flick either. No conclusive ending.....unless........Like Crazy 2? NooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOO!
