I enjoyed the film. Missed some of the jokes, because of laughing at previous ones. Jude Law does comedy very well. Looking forward to see the majority of the cast on Graham Norton Show this week.

Had tickets but too unwell to attend, gutted. Only on offer at my venue tonight which isn't unusual since there hasn't been a single screening there since January!

I enjoyed this much more than I thought I would! Melissa McCarthy wasn't in your face as much as usual and Jason Statham was very funny as the idiot agent. But my God, how thin is Rose Byrne? Lots of good gags while not in your face crude (much).

I could have done without the many latecomers though (until 55 mins in!) and our stupid rustling and chatting neighbours, including the two fuckwits arriving half-way through, who sat down in different rows then proceeded to pass snacks back and forth!

7/10

this was fun. i think it took a little to warm me up but there were many belly laughs from me by the end.

quite pleased there are so many screening now. think i will even go and see it again. i really needed to see something I enjoyed after the atrocious san andreas.

8.5 / 10

Really enjoyed, didn't think I would as I had images of throw mamma from the train in my head due to some of the posters. Statham was hilarious. Thought Jude law was going to end with British accent as his American ws awful, he's definately not improving with age!
LOL moments a plenty 8.5/10 for me.

Unexpectedly loved this. Some great gags, fast pace, neat script. Statham brilliant playing up to his image. Can't understand why people persist in leaving as credits roll; the credits had good sight gags and after them there was a good outtake. 9/10

My OH and I saw this film yesterday at Cineworld Wood Green. There was a problem with the projection of the film, so the first few minutes weren't shown. Even though the audience was shouting and asking to re-start the film, the projectionist decided not to. :noo:

This film was better than expected and really funny. Stay for the credits roll and the post-credits scene, if you haven't seen it yet. 8.5/10

Saw this at a completely full Reading Showcase - not a seat to spare. Loved it, excellent cast and very amusing 8/10

I thought this was so funny! I liked all the characters.

The O2 was full, but so many people turning up throughout the film!

Nice to see Beate and OH in our very noisy and fidgety corner!!
