There is some last-minute availability on Sky so it doesn't hurt checking if you are still after tickets!

Re: Due Date
One of the funniest and most enjoyable films I've seen for a long time. Robert Downey Jr and Zach Galifianakis brought the film to life, and they really excelled together in their unconventional partnership. Jamie Foxx was also first rate, but I was surprised at the brevity of his screen time.
A highly recommended 9 out of 10 from me for this.

Re: Due Date
Just got back from seeing this. I only watched the trailer last night and was creased up by the end of that. It was really funny. I have not seen Zach Galifianakis in a film before (no, I have not seen The Hangover) and loved him. I had a few giggles to myself during the film as someone I know reminds me a lot of Robert Downey Jr and the way he was dressed in the film and his mannerisms were exactly like the person I know (who funnily enough is also called Peter). I have got tickets for Tuesday at Vue just in case I couldn't go tonight. Should I see it again?
Loved some of the scenery and the soundtrack too.
Message to Tilly, camera trickery, I reckon!!

Re: Due Date
Brilliantly funny, and reminded me of the Fokkers/something about Mary type films, where it is shocking you and you barely catch your breath between gags. Yes, some bits are slow, and the whole thing is not believable, but this had slapstick, cringe-worthy scenes and some really funny lines.
How on earth did they manage to keep their faces straight when filming this? Bet the outtakes for this are even more hilarious! RDJr can be very mischievous...
Shall I go again on Tuesday? Maybe... I'll certainly watch it again sometime. One of the funniest comedies for a while.

Re: Due Date
Loved The Hangover, but thought this just wasn't funny and judging by lack of laughs in the cinema not many others did either.

Re: Due Date
Just watched this, lots of laughs in our Cinema and I would say its more of an updated planes,trains with adult humour and several laugh out load moments.
Re: Due Date
Saw this film at Southend tonight and thought it was really funny. Judging by the amount of laughing at Southend cinema, most other people watching also found it funny. Amazingly, the hour and a half went really quickly, considering that the plot basically revolved around a journey taken by a trio of two men and a French bulldog, which resulted in changing perceptions. Brilliant casting, even the dog was funny! 9/10 from me.
