Any films you have been to see that you were disappointed with?

Dunkirk and The Shape of water, hours out of my life I will never get back.

The new David Copperfield actually switched it off.

Yes Dunkirk was a huge disappointment, agree.

Les Miserables yawn, Nomadland depressing.

When we were courting, we went to see ‘The Battle Of Britain’.
I found it boring, didn’t know which side was which.

DH was disappointed when we went to see ‘The King And I’, he didn’t realise it was a musical, because it had Yul Bruner in it he assumed it would be a western or an action film!

La La Land, I just didn't understand it at all
The Joker, wtf was it about
There are bound to be loads

Cats. Dreadful, but I nearly fell off my seat as I went to sleep, I just thought it very weird and boring, would have left but my friends stuck it out but thought the same.

Oh yes La La Land and Cats. Awful.

Watched "The Shape of Water" on TV. Dreadful - so glad didn't go to cinema to see it. Switched off before the end. Can't understand why it got awards. Am in the minority here , I expect , but also didn't like "The Greatest Showman" although DD and DGD loved it !

My daughter loved the greatest showman but I didn't like him he is not a very nice man

Another vote for LaLaLand. We walked out and went to the pub.

Also Cats. I did hang on to the end of that but, looking back it should have been the pub again??

Oh yes La La Land and Cats. Awful.

The last 10 minutes of LaLaLand were good but that didn’t mean that the rest of it wasn’t awful. It wasn’t worth the wait. Thankfully we saw it on dvd. I loved The Revenant. One of those films that I’m glad I saw at the cinema for the sheer scale of it. Uncle Boonmee who can recall his previous lives (I knew what we we’d let ourselves in for when the first 20 minutes of the film just showed a water buffalo standing in a field) was awful as was The Headless Woman. I lost faith in Mark Kermodes judgement after that.

Have you listened to You’re Dead to Me about Barnum on BBC Sounds?

Definitely LaLa Land must be one of the most over hyped films ever. I didn't like The Revenant, and in spite of liking Daniel Day Lewis as an actor I found both Lincoln and There Will be Blood, very ponderous and dull.

I'm sure there will be others I've forgotten that I'll agree with.

Of course like most I haven't been to the cinema for quite a while now. Do remember the last film we saw before lockdown was 1917 which I thought was very good.

Loved hunger games 1 and 2, number 3 was the biggest load of rubbish, very disappointed.

It is dissappointing when film number 2 or 3 is a flop. I wish they wouldn't revisit.

Loved Hunger Games 1 but not so much the other two. I’d seen Jennifer Lawrence in Winters Bone and thought at the time that she was a star in the making. She was so perfect for the role of Katniss.

La la land walked out didn’t get it?

No

Peterloo - Manchester is my city. My grannie talked about Peterloo, such a significant part of our history. An absolutely awful film.

The Life of Pi - I was so bored.

Chariots of Fire, just didn’t get it.

Settled down to watch Lala Land on television, what a load of absolute rubbish, turned it off.
Love The Greatest Showman though, we all enjoyed it, and have watched it lots of times.

I tried to watch LaLa Land during a long-haul flight and couldn't follow it. I fell asleep and didn't feel I'd missed much.
