ODEON LEICESTER, not sure if it applies to all of tonight's screenings

Unfortunately due to circumstances beyond our control the screening of The Proposal originally scheduled to take place this evening will now take place on Sunday 12th July.

Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.

If you require any further help please contact Luke on help@seefilmfirst.com

OK well we had no problems seeing the Proposal in Cardiff last night. For those of you rescheduled, if you can go I would try as it was great fun. The whole cinema was in stitches for 90% of the film. It is definately worth seeing.

never been to a free showing before and just wanted to ask about the start time. It says on the email no admittance after film starts but are there any trailers? if the film starts at 6.30 and i get there for around 6.25/6.30 would i still be able to get in? i am gonna rush after work to get there but am worried going to get there just in time. Also if you have the email are you guarenteed the tickets? they wouldnt send out more than they have room for right? thanks

Recently, some screenings have been showing trailers but not at all cinemas. It seems to be hit and miss. Some cinemas do allow you in if you are a few minutes late; my friend and I have been allowed in late but again it seems to be at the cinemas discretion.

And I hate to tell you this but See Film First/Tell Ten do issue more tickets than seats available but it is rare that the screenings are full, it depends on the film and other factors I suppose. I went to see Pulbic Enemies and that was full so much so that stragglers were split up to sit in single seats. The next screening was Bruno where we expected it to be over subscribed. Some screenings were almost full whilst others like Liverpool, were fairly empty. It's the luck of the draw I'm afraid.

Great thank you, the emails say bring id but do they ever actually ask for id? If the email was in my name im guessing my bf cant get the tickets first before i get there?

It is rare that you are asked for ID. It generally happens at the blockbuster films like Bruno but is rare.

You don't get issued with tickets at the box office. Take the printout to where you show your tickets normally and they take the printout from you and direct you to the screenroom showing the preview.
