    “Risen” is the epic Biblical story of the Resurrection, as told through the eyes of a non-believer.

    :( ALAN RICKMAN's last appearance on screen :(

    Helen Mirren, Aaron Paul, Alan Rickman and Barkhad Abdi star in EYE IN THE SKY a contemporary international thriller set in the world of counter-intelligence and remote warfare.

    London-based military intelligence officer Colonel Katherine Powell (Helen Mirren) is remotely commanding a top secret drone operation to capture a group of dangerous terrorists from their safe-house in Nairobi, Kenya. The mission suddenly escalates from a “capture” to a “kill” operation as Powell realizes that the terrorists are about to embark on a deadly suicide mission. From his base in Nevada, American drone pilot Steve Watts (Aaron Paul) is poised to destroy the safe-house when a nine year old girl enters the kill zone just outside the walls of the house. With unforeseen collateral damage now entering the equation, the impossible decision of when to strike gets passed up the “kill chain” of politicians and lawyers as the seconds tick down.

    Hi All, I have a question which I am hoping someone will be able to answer.

    I have been using seefilmsfirst for awhile and seen some great films but I have noticed that the number of films has reduced and when they do come up you have to ve really quick.

    Anyway I was considering joining the times+ in order to get more tickets, is it worth it as it is not cheap? Are tickets any easier to get hold of? I am based near Birmingham so there are a number of cinemas I can go to.

    Any comments and advice would be great, thanks :)

    The Times are doing an offer £12 for 12 weeks.

    Its a fairly cheap way of figuring out whether or not to go down the full subscription route. Its very important to read the T&C's especially if you want to cancel. I believe you have to do so at least 2 weeks before your offer period runs out.

    Excluding special offers (if you can get one for a long term subscripton) the Times+ starts at £6 per week for the full week access ... (£312 per annum)

    You could go for just the weekdays at £4 or just the Sunday edition at £2,
    although all these come with NO GUARANTEES regards what films will be shown :(

    So UNLESS you actually want to read the news content provided by this publication ....

    why wouldn't you just go for a Cineworld subscription at £16.90 a month? (£202.80 per annum)

    You can then see as many films that any Cineworld (you can get to) screens in the entire month or year as many times a day or week that you have spare time to do so.

    Go 4 times a week and each film will have cost you less than £1 each.
    See 2 films on each visit and they're under 50p :D

    Got an identical twin ?
    Both of you could use the same card :rotfl:

    I think the Code Only thread posts today re Telegraph Subscriber screenings are "heads up" that these offers will become available, not that you can actually complete a request online yet. If any Telegraph Subscriber has managed to book either or both, please advise what available route you used.
