I saw this last night and really enjoyed it. It had a brisk pace and some clever special effects. The storyline was innovative, with an intriguing style. Bradley Cooper’s narration gave an interesting insight into the character’s mind and his performance was pretty good overall. 8.5/10

Saw this at Swiss Cottage Odeon.

I was gripped throughout the movie which is a good sign. However I did leave feeling not totally satisfied by the movie.

A pretty clever idea and Bradley Cooper was great in it!
When I found out Robert DeNiro was in this I expected him to have a larger role but all the same he presented his character well!
7/10

I watched this on Tuesday, have to say this was a cracking film, Bradley Cooper is turning into a decent leading man, highly recommended!

Well I have seen this twice now and I still think its a great film and a great concept..
Bradley Cooper has come a long way from his days as sidekick Will in Alias! :D

On second time of watching it was clear that it was Jacket Guy who killed the woman in the hotel - he killed all witnesses - like the guys in the park when he was chasing Abby Cornish. This had been a matter of debate the first time round!

Its interesting from a female perspective that they didnt make the character of Eddie that likeable. I spent some portions of the film, thinking he's a bit of a g*t. I mean who goes from being dumped by his beloved girlfriend to sleeping with his landlords wife in the same afternoon without even a twinge of residual angst or guilt when they get back together? And when he is on the Pill, in the party scenes - he comes across as that smug know it all we all love to hate at dinners and parties - the one who loves the sound of his own voice.... :roll:

Still - good movie - would recommend it! o/

I would love to see it twice. But it won't be happening in my case.... not for free, anyway... I enjoyed it much more than "Inception". Can't see any faults with the film at all! Unusual and captivating plot o/ , good acting, 8-) some effects for the big screen... I don't want much more! As I said I loved it! 10/10

I passed my Hemel tickets on to a friend for this tonight, she just called and said just over half way through the screen went funny, then the sound went, then someone came in and said the film had screwed up! However, the cinema have issued you them all with a ticket to see another film.
Preferred Cinema's now Paignton or Exeter!
