Saw this last night with a couple of mates. Weird movie, I was wondering how it was going to end because it never quite started . It was just a few random scenes which were thrown together to stretch it out into a movie. Maybe there was an underlying message but I'm just not sophisticated enough to see it. :doh:
Agree there were a few funnies but also a few bits which just didn't make sense & didn't seem to fit.
Not one for the blokes I would say.

I thought it took a while to get going but I and the friend with me enjoyed it. It's a quirky, gentle Brit movie. However the whole audience laughed out loud about five times at the funny bits, so quite entertaining. I'd say it's not one for the blokes but there were quite a few in the audience and they did much of the laughing - perhaps the free tickets had put them in a good mood!?:)
Are we all saying "Enn-Ra-Ha!" while driving now, or is that just me? :rotfl:

Have just happened upon this thread. Is there an initial thread for the codes/links to apply for tickets & whether your local cinema participates in the offer at all?

IGNORE have just seen the sticky!

Thanks

As I finished posting my last post here just before 6pm I got an email from Time Out telling me that I won two tickets for In Bruges for tonight at 6:30!!!

Rush rush rush, dropped what I was doing, called my DH and we met in the Greenwich Odeon, where there were a total of two more people for the screening (another 4 came in later).

Apparently Time Out just emailed the winners of the tickets at the last minute, goodness knows why.

Both DH and I loved the film, even if violent and sad, the funny bits were soooo funny and the un-pc-ness was truly refreshing.

Yes, I know of someone else who got a winning email an hour before and couldn't make it, I got the rejection email very late too, I think it's a scandal, no wonder the cinemas were empty if they play games like that. Not very impressed with Time Out at the moment. If I had got an email that late, no way would I have been able to make it.

less than 10 people in a London screening?! that must be almost unheard of!!

I got a winning email from Time Out for In Bruges today too. Far too late for me to do anything about it. Is it worth bothering with Time Out, if the notifications arrive too late to take up the tickets?

It is unusual and the first time it happened, so it is worth investigating what went wrong.

i went to see in bruge last week and seriously i was sat next to the most un emotive person EVER! She didnt laugh ONCE! then moaned that my friend and i had been wispering about the movie when we watched it lol - sorry but tell somebody who cares at least we enjoyed it. I agree the end was a bit much for me though.
