Colin Bennett’s review:
Full review to follow, let's just say it was a pleasant enough film where I liked all the characters and the performances of all the actors.
The film was somewhat overshadowed by a couple who came in late, talked loud enough for everyone to hear them(we were 6 rows back), drank alcomahol from a plastic bottle and generally annoyed the rest of audience. A staff member attempted to babysit them(the GFT generally prefer not to throw people out) by sitting in the row behind and shushing the couple every time they started talking. The couple left before the end of the film & at least one of them fell down the stairs out of the screen. Not quite sure if I channelled Carrie and did this because a little bit of me wanted them to fall for taking me out of the film a number of times. Let's just say I got a couple of disapproving looks after I started laughing(I wasn't the only one but I may hae been the loudest).
Comment?
