At least we got 2 free tickets so we can catch it when it come out :D
Or maybe you can catch it at another free screening and use the vouchers for something else.

There were actually a few empty seats in the first screen. I managed to find places for OH and I after they had declared it full and were directing people upstairs to the other screen.
I think they probably didn't bother filling up all the empty spaces because they had so many extra people that they had decided to open up another screen.

I got into Greenwich O2 at 6:30pm when they'd open a second screen, which was eventually about 95% full when the film started at around 6:55pm.

Worth the wait, although typically hollywood, I laughed out loud in several places and it was definitely better than expected. I certainly sympathised with the men/staff members in the film, as I've certainly fantasized about getting rid of managers in the past (or is it current? ;) )! Got any more advice Jamie?

8/10

akh43 were you next to me on the back row?
Hi Diane65 - Yes I was sat on the back row with my friend, I can't believe we were sat next to each other and still have not met - I really enjoyed the film too, quite packed for the Lowry.
I was sat behind the lady with the lie back seat and your friend was next to my daughter, I now know who you are so will say hi next time.

Will look out for you too, there are a few 'relaxer' seats at lowry, I picked one on a previous screening, surprised they dont fix these broken seats.

Did the woman with mobile in the aisle distract you too :nono: dont know why some people come to the pictues and then spend half the film on their phones especially with such a good film !!

Incidentally, Charlie Day and Jason Sudeikis played pals in "Going the Distance" as well: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1322312/
They were a million times funnier in this though.
