    no, its not, wasn't shown at a single cinema near me for free. Not that wouldn't have cost more in petrol parking than just buying tickets at my local.

    I actually fell asleep during this film - I had been walking all over London all day though.

    The parts I saw looked ok.

    Sounds a bit like my experience with Bolt i couldn't stay awake i think it had to be the most boring kids film apart from Wall E which was another boring one where all 3 of us in a row were near to snoring.

  • :o Hi,

    I am quite new to this so sorry I sound stupid. I have been trying to get one of these free cinema tickets and everytime I add the code and chose the cinema, there is a message saying that the screening is full, asking me to try next time... my question is... is there a "magic" time/day to try as I do not seem to be lucky with this.

    Thank you very much.

    thought owen wilson and Jennifer aniston were really good

    Bridgend Odeon was packed out
    and grrrrr people arriving late,up to 15/20 mins after the start trying to find seats

    very annoying and disruptive!

    Rushed twice to my computer in the last 2 days, thinking there was a new code, only to find comments rather than codes. Arrrrrrrrgh!
