Lots of reviews for and against in the press.
Queues around the block to get a ticket nr us!
Anyone seen it yet?

My AC saw it this morning and gave it 5 stars, they say that Joaquin Phoenix's performance is 'genius'.

I've heard it's brilliant but very, very dark with some walking out, all too much I gather and yes mixed reviews, The Sunday Times critic only gave it two stars. I'd quite like to see it, but I hate gratuitous violence, so am wondering if it's for me. One of my friends is going to see it this week, I'll let her report back to me.

Oh dearhmm I said I'd go and see it with Mr. S. as we went to see Downton Abbey and I'm beginning to wonder if I'll be able so sit through it.

Like you TerriBull I hate gratuitous violence.

It's not a film I'd go and see.

Not sure those who aren't keen on gratuitous violence will like this.

I'm looking forward to seeing it but I'll wait until its on Sky
