sometimes puerile, but often v funny, the end felt a bit rushed maybe.

Got to WIQ yesterday at 6.10 to find they were cleaning the screen and to join the group of people waiting to go in. Made a joke to the person collecting the printed tickets, to find where the back of the queue was so I could join it. And he said he didn’t know and clearly didn’t get the joke too. But in all honesty I think there should be a queue formed so firstly people can walk past without squeezing past people and secondly we don’t all look like crazy people waiting to get out daily dose of free film. But any who, once getting in, just about, I headed to the back row seeing Beate had her usual seats (I was going to say Hi, but didnt want to look like a weirdo!) took a left and headed to the end of the row, but squeezing past an older man who was kinda rude tbh.

On to the film and I would say it had some funny parts, but the film wasn’t funny as I thought it was going to be. Maybe after how funny I thought Hangover was I thought it would be just as funny, but it wasn’t and I wouldn’t compare it to the Hangover or you will be disappointed. But it did have some funny parts, like the drinking of the coffee, how he goes to sleep (the gf found this part nasty) and when he going over the Godfather scene which was quite well acted. Overall a decent film and some funny parts.

8/10

And oh I saw the bouncer looking guy sitting at the back. Stuff like that is becoming more frequent at these previews.

Oh that was you! You should have said hi! Yes, that guy was rude, and when he got up to let you past he dug himself into OH who wasn't best pleased. The problem with WIQ is that you can't form an orderly queue in front of any of their screens due to the layout. I did make a joke about it to a few FMUKers. The bouncer was actually responsible for the queue disintegrating, because he went in and we followed him, thinking he was a regular guy and it was time to go in. Then we were stopped and had to retreat and the queue was never the same again. I actually moved the bouncer's stuff one seat so we could have the seats in the middle - luckily he wasn't bothered about it when he came in and sat down next to me. :shifty:

I went to a screening of this movie yesterday evening. I score it a 8/10 as it was very humorous in parts. Hilarious and entertaining!!! Time went by very quickly and it was very fast paced as well. One of the best one's for this year I would say.

We liked it too... The Hangover is funnier, but this was good, and the film did fly by quickly.

I'd say 7.5/10.
