Great to read the good reviews here from you guys who saw this film a while ago.

Free films for my area have been pretty thin on the ground this year - so I am really looking forward to this one. o/

I just watched this..... DISAPPOINTMENT!
I really like Justin Bartha, he's definitely the loveable-can-do-no-wrong type of guy in any film he is part of.
Catherine Zeta Jones, erm, no i'm not a fan.
I'm trying to review without spoilers so here it is.
Loose ends, scrappy story, slow to start, unbelievable age-change, and pointless friend sidekickes.
I don't understand why people had enjoyed it, only fun parts were the kids, and how fascinated the young girl was in all things 'medical'
I wouldn't bother wasting my eyes for this 2/10 (and thats 1 each for the kids)

When I used these at Greenwich to book Iron Man 2, the lady tried to turn me away saying the film has to be out for two weeks before I can use them. After informing her that there is no way I am accepting that statement, her manager confirmed that it will be possible to book it so just be weary who you deal with esp at Greenwich. They seem to do as they please and make up their own rules along the way.

Just as enjoyable the third time round, and lovely to see 5rannoch again!

However, if ever there was someone I wanted to say "zip it you twerp" to with all my heart it was tonight! Thoroughly annoying chatty couple in front, who, upon shushed by me, actually turned round and shouted at me to shut up! :mad:

8.5/10 nevertheless

Saw this in Edinburgh tonight and nice to see Biggins and her friend too. Enjoyed our catch up.

Film was not as good as I expected it to be. Bit slow but happy I saw it anyway and nice to see Art Garfunkel tho he does seem to have aged.

Always like watching Catherine Zeta Jones can't believe she always looks so young.

6.5/10 from us

Sorry Beate couldn't watch this a second time never mind a third time!! I was so looking forward to this but have to agree with Marjoreemarjora that I also found it slow in places. Only the kids made it watchable. 6/10
