    I loved it! Was fully expecting it to be crap because the third one was, but I really enjoyed it.

    got there super early yday to see the movie and there was just no need as the screening was never full! Although why oh why the lady had to bring her 3yr old along to see this movie and then sit next to me I don't understand! Ruined the movie for alot of people with her screams until they eventually left half way! Wasn't expecting it to be in 3D either which was a nice suprise! :)

    Look forward to the next one! :)

    Which movie? I thought Win Win was rated R so not for 3yr olds? What age can see Win Win?

    I agree, nice surprise but needless use of 3D yet again

    Yeah the 3D didn't add much to the movie as wasn't used very much either! Was my first 3D movie in a regular cinema so i'm glad I didn't pay for the privilege of seeing it as would have been disappointed!

    It was Pirates of the Caribbean - 12A so clearly not suitable for a 3year old! don't know if any 3yr old could have sat still and quietly for that long regardless of the movie!

    Was pretty bad - the screaming, the kicking me as they tried to break free of their mother force breastfeeding them to try and get them to be quiet! Was on the verge of saying something before someone else got in first!

    that happened in the screening of transformers and harry potter, two and three year olds ruining it for everyone else. I never even considered bringing my child to such films it is unfair and will give them bad dreams for a long time, at least if they are going to go to films take them to child centred cartoons as they have such short attention spans anyway and it is just not right.

    Not good of the cinema for letting her in either. Could you not have complained to them afterwards? Hard to know when to say something, but I'm glad more people do as I am always too nervous to.

    I complained once after a very noisy episode with children watching a chic flick which was classified 12 or 15 suchlike and they told me it was parents choice and the certificate said children couldn't be on their own but could be accompanied and then gave me the "you should be grateful to be here for free anyway" look. Let's hope in a few years time the tables are turned. :mad:
