They reckon this film will be the most watched by Dads at the cinema this year - so are you going to see it?

We are going on Wednesday next week - can't wait!

What did you guys think?

I was a little underwhelmed by the experience. It wasn't necessarily a bad film, but it certainly wasn't the 'classic' that the PR machine had promised.

It looked amazing though!

I disagree - thought the story was terrific and the special effects were amazing - I really enjoyed it

Absolutely loved it. It is by far, one of the best Bond films ever. It's very dark, dramatic and the photography is superb. I really loved the strong characters and M gets lots of screen time. It's no wonder that it's now the biggest U.K. film of all time and it only took 40 days to break that record!

N.D.

They reckon that the new Les Mis is the best British film ever and will clean up at the oscars - bet it doesn't do as well at the box office

It probably won't due to the musical nature. Cultured films just cannot out perform mainstream ones, in terms of revenue.
Les Mis will indeed do well and as far as I am aware, there is no competition for it in the musical category (but could be wrong). It will do well by default but hopefully more so, by own it's own qualities.

The movie is good however, there just isn't as much action as I hoped there would be!

Where's the gadgets on the Aston Martins???

Quite disappointed by that but loved the story!

Thought Les Mis was an outstanding film, brilliant.

Only weak performance was Russell Crowe - his voice was not good enough and thought his acting was not up to his usual standard.

Anne Hathaway was magnificent.

I absolutely loved Les Mis. I hadn't seen the musical, so the story was new to me and I thought it was great. All performances were first class, the songs were fantastic and the story just broke my heart (more than once!) I left the cinema emotionally drained but in a good way. If it doesn't get Best Picture at the Oscars, I will be fuming!

N.D.
