    The blurb usually says half an hour b4 film is due to start and It's rare for cinema to allow entrance much earlier altho' that does depend on the individual cinema.
    I'm presuming your film is due to start @ 10.30am? I wud suggest get there for 10am especially if you have young children as they cud get bored standing around.

    I have just managed to secure 8 tickets for a showing on Sunday...will the cinema allow me and 7 kids in on two tickets in my name?

    FYI the 7 kids aren't all mine!!! :A

    i'd guess so, no where does it say you can only get 2 tickets. you could always ring the cinema or pop in and find out just to be on the safe side... i wouldnt fancy trying to calm 7 kids down at the cinema if they get told they cant go in :rotfl::rotfl:

    I went to see rebound last night with a girly mate, we both thoroughly enjoyed it. some very funny moments, some touching moments and a down right feel good movie! defs recommend it for all to go see :) mrs zeta = !!!!!!!! :-D

    Went to see Karate Kid this morning with 13yo. Thought it might just be the old one revamped but it was equally as good and Jaden Smith and Jackie Chan were great. Really enjoyed the film - hope all the others who go to see it do too. Only comment - from my 13yo (!) she thought that the PG rating was a bit too generous and it should have been 12A.

    I have tickets for Karate Kid Thursday, not used SFF tickets before for the cinema, how does it work when you arrive, do you need to get there really early, do they over allocate? Am taking the kids don't want them to be disappointed if we can't get in.

    Talking of kids, I am taking my 6 & 7 year after watching and your comments about the rating do you think its suitable?

    Thanks!!

    Don't arrive any later than the showing time and all you need is your printed e-ticket - all done. I went to see KK at 11am this morning and arrived at 11:06 with 3 friends only to be turned away with "sorry the screening is full plus it has already started" - fking knobheads. To answer your questions - YES they do overallocate. There are also some clever/dodgy people like me that can obtain tickets EVEN when they unavailable, thus taking up sneaky seats. Get in the auditorium at least 30 mins before the movie starts and you'll be fine,
