Timings all depend on what time the film starts and ends, then you have to get the tube back to Blackfriars or Charing Cross

Wouldn't it be easier and cheaper to just p*y for a cinema ticket where you are. I dont think
It's worth the hassle.

I know it makes it special but travelling time and cost of ticket makes it not worthwhile.

If you drive you will have a parking problem, especially if you don't know your way around. And your poor friend will miss out on the free cocktails. If you have the time, you and a friend could get the megabus down on thursday, spend the night at a cheap hotel and then travel back the next day by megabus for about the same price as 2 train fares. That way you would be having a proper break in London and get to see some of the sights. The Tune hotel, Westminster have rooms for £45 for that night. It is a 'no frills place but it is clean and comfortable and has everything you need in a very small room.
