The last film you saw ( at the cinema)?

Ab Fab lets be generous 6 out of 10 but better than Demolition with Jake Gylenhall 3 out of 10. All I can say about that, it was different.

The best bit of Ab Fab was on a day a few weeks back when the temperature was over 30 degrees and it was a pleasure to sit in the air conditioned cinema.

We have the Meerkat thing so if we go Tuesday or Wednesday afternoon we both get in for £2.50 each......beat that!

I h ave now been to the cinema again. There's a new small cinema a few miles away and it has a weekly Silver Screen for over 60s showing so there was a small audience of older people. The adverts were loud but the film was the correct volume, as the noise I've heard about put me off but this was fine. I saw Me Before You and enjoyed it.

I was at the BFI (Southbank, London) recently to see the remastered film of Barry Lyndon. 3 hours no break (the original screenings in 1975/6 had an intermission! I was worried I'd get fidgety but time flew by. Good old Stanley Kubrick knew how to make a good film!

Went with GSs and another family to see the BFG. We all enjoyed it though some adults have said it's too long. The children (from 7 to 11) had no such complaint. Anyone who has been to see it will know which scene occasioned the greatest hilarity but I won't spoil it for you if you haven't. Mark Rylands was brilliant. As far as he could be from Thomas Cromwell. What a versatile actor he is. And the girl who played Sophie is very promising too. I also saw Jason Bourne the previous week with my DS1. It was good, but somewhat predictable.

BFG - took the grandchildren who loved it. A couple of days later we went to visit the Giants Causeway and the story of BFG got woven in with the story of Finn McCool, their imagination was running riot!

Yesterday I took 2 GC ages 10 and12 to see Swallows and Amazons, we all enjoyed it. There were adults there without children, possibly remembering a time when they read the book.

Penstemmon - I saw Barry Lyndon when it first came out in the mid '70s up in the west end and thought it was sublime, I still do have seen it several times since. A very beautful, underrated film, with a wonderful classical score, although I note that serious film buffs will place it among the all times greats. It's absolutely one of my all time favourites, along with first two Godfathers. All three have stood the test of time imo.

Terribull we also saw it when it first came out and agree it is a masterpiece. Some of the images are so perfect and Leonard Rossiter's dance was perfection!

THAT SCENE in BFG Annodomini is so funny! I really thought I was going to have a little accident, I was laughing so much. DGSs were hysterical. The corgis ??????

Recently I, along with my grandson, who is 12 years old, watched film Kong: Skull Island (3D) - he liked it, and I was not very interested because I love movies like The Man with Thousand Faces (by the way there is a good website putlocker.rip/ where you can watch these films online because the cinemas last year's movies do not show)))

I saw Beauty and the Beast last night and loved it!

Went to the cinema on my own last week as my cinema buddy didn't ffancy the film but it was fantastic Hidden Figures it was a cracker of a film and everyone clapped at the end of it which I thought was quite unusual
I pay £5 for a ticket and it s a lovely theatre that shows films as well as shows

Saw 'Lion' a few weeks ago and loved it, even though it could have been half an hour shorter without losing impact. I'll gladly watch it again if it comes on TV.

I saw Lion too and would thoroughly recommend it

Another big fan of Lion here, although a friend of mine criticised the second half, particularly the Rooney Mara role, which in her opinion was somewhat superfluous and artificial, possibly written in as that actress is now an A lister, Hollywood appeal I can see her point the first half set in India, particularly the wonderful little boy who played the child Saroo, such a natural, was imo better. Manchester by the Sea also very good.

We went for a week's break to Newlyn recently and to our delight found that they have a new and brilliant Art House cinema in a converted fish warehouse. Very unexpected in a small place. Two screens with four films a day, and we saw 3 films whilst we were there. One Spanish, one French "Elle" which was very sexually explicit, and Moonlight, which was ok but not sure lived up to the hype. The cinema has restaurant and bar which is open most of the day, and if you are in the area I would definitely recommend.

Jackie, yesterday. We enjoyed it, and it led to a lot of googling to remind us what happened to the various Kennedys and the other main characters. We go to the Senior Vue most weeks, whether we fancy it or not - sometimes we're pleasantly surprised by a film we wouldn't normally have chosen. A bit like the GN Book Club really!

We are going to see " Their Finest " on Monday at a free preview. There are still tickets to give away from Gransnet Local Essex if you can get to Braintree or Basildon on Monday evening.
Will review the film on the local thread next week.

I've seen the preview for this one, Pittcity, and we definitely want to see it. Essex is a tad far for us to travel though!

Saw Lion a couple of weeks ago. Great film, really enjoyed it and cried buckets. Love Dev Patel.

Bluebelle I saw Hidden Figures whilst staying with my daughter in March, a very moving film and I am so pleased that after all these years the women and their role was recognised.
I have been recommending to everyone since I saw it to try and see Hidden Figures, on my return home our local Commjnity Film night showed La La Land which for me did not have the punch that Hidden Figures did, so I wasdisappointed in it.

Lion was lovely greatly enjoyed that one
Saw 20 Century Woman and don't recommend that at all bored stiff through most of it

Hilltopgran like you thought lalaland was not worth all the hype
I ve been recommending Hidden Figures too don't think it was advertised enough I really didn't expect to find it so good Glad you liked it too

Yogi bear was the last film i saw at the cinema. I haven't saved enough to go again, last time the price for 3 adults and 1 child was £35 entrance fee with 2 drinks and 2 tubs of popcorn it was £52 and that was 6 or 7 years ago. I dread to think how much it costs now

Girl on a train.( on the silverscreen) I was disappointed from the very start. Simply because I'd read the book and in my head the scene was set on a London train line and the Houses were those big Victorian terrace houses. I always like to watch action films at the cinema I just think some films are better on a big screen. Mostly though I wait and buy the dvd when the price has come down.
