Huh - instead of giving the popcorn to us - we survived on a handful of croissants all day! Just back from our movie marathon - 4 films straight after the other, don't know where to start!

Stamina, Beate and OH, you have stamina!

The cats were really cute. For some reason, both of them were intrigued by the smell of my hand moisturiser.

I went to the screening with my bf and a friend, and all of us liked the film. (it's a film with cats...obviously, I would like it) Not as funny as Shrek 1 imo, but better than the latest Shrek installments. 8/10

Still enjoyable on a second viewing but doesn't hold up too well on a whole. The plot is such complete nonsense- the inclusion of Jack & Jill serves no actual purpose.

Kitten Puss is still incredibly adorable, though. *meow*
102 Different free films seen in 2010 plus 2 repeat viewings and a few tv show screenings... not too shabby. Thanks to everyone for their contributions here.

There was lots of low key kids activity before hand and everyone was very pleasant. I was tempted to have my face painted but to be honest this would have been quite disturbing for the kids to see.

Really enjoyed the film. The 3D was ok but at least it was all pretty bright. Loved Antonio Banderas as Puss in Boots. The pacing was fine and there were no real dull moments to the film. The film looked great. It was a lovely film and a great way to kick start a Saturday.

7.5/10
Might have been a bit disturbing for the face painter seeing an Adult queuing up for painting. reminds me of queueing to get a penguin balloon (unsucessfully)
preferred locations Shepherds Bush, Westfield, Notting Hill, Central London, Wimbledon, Islington, Wandsworth thanks
