It was mediocre, good 3D for a conversion.
Have to say, the final act hurt my head with the whole time-travel/alternate timeline-jumping stuff, are the screenwriters smart enough to have worked it out, or dumb enough not to care?

few funny jokes but not enough to forget the rather boring, linear and highly predicable plot!
I hope they stop here; at least this one will leave a better taste than MiB2.

Brolin was superb and I was very surprised when we checked IMDB to see who was playing Boris (Jermaine Clement from Flight of the Concorde!)... I was convinced it was Hugo Weaving for the entire movie!

a very generous 7/10, mostly because of Josh Brolin!

edit: was I the only thinking that TLJ does look like he is 111yo! The close-up shots were painful!

I never made it either, thanks to Overground being partly suspended. Oh well. :roll:
I must have been very lucky and got the last overground running!

I personally enjoyed it. I like Big Will and its a big summer film, leave your brains at home sort of film. 8/10
preferred locations Shepherds Bush, Westfield, Notting Hill, Central London, Wimbledon, Islington, Wandsworth thanks

I thoroughly enjoyed this! Loved Will too. Josh was brilliant.
And then saw in the credits that the young agent O was Alice Eve, as I kept thinking I recognised her.

On the way back, yes. The c**t train thought it would spend ages at each stop to regulate the c**ting service. It should have been regulated by that time of night. :mad: If I knew the c**t train would do that, I'd have f**ked off to the bus stop.

Yes that's what happened to me when I was going there. They were "regulating the service". I gave up after the train stopped for over 15 mins at Green Park 8O
