The Adventures of Tintin (2011)

Brilliant film, even better in 3D...

[30 October 2011]

As you may know Tin Tin is a very old character and there has been books and TV programs made about his great adventures by his inventor Hergé. This new film has been voted the best animated film and once you've seen this film you'll know why. The film is well paced out and there's never a dull moment in this film. The 3D in this film is spectacular and it's well worth seeing this film in 3D if you can. The film is around 1 hour 47 minutes long and in this time Steven Spielberg manages to squash in a good few adventures into one in this film. This makes it much more exciting and you really get to know how Tin Tin and Captain Haddock were in the old days. As a projectionist, I've seen this film about 6 times now and I still don't get bored watching it. Absolutely brilliant film, I really recommend going to see this film as soon as you can. Hope the review helps your thoughts on the film. Thanks for reading, I'll be making more reviews on the films that I see at my cinema so you can get the latest thoughts from me on the films. Thanks again BPH projectionist

Johnny English Reborn (2011)

Great film and a great laugh...

[8/10 · 16 October 2011]

I found this film very funny and interesting, there's never a boring part in this film. This film sees the return of the infamous Johnny English on another mission that you just know he's going to ruin. Although this film is a brilliant watch and keeps you chuckling all the way through, it is not as good as the first Johnny English film. This is usually the case these days with films, the first one is always the best. The film is not too long and has a good story telling pace, not too fast so that you cant keep track of what's happening and not too slow so that you feel like going to sleep. This films in the middle, just right :) If you haven't already seen this film then I recommend that you go and see it as soon as possible. As a projectionist, I've seen this film about 7 times already :) and I still laugh at the funny scenes in the film. If you like all that top secret MI7 stuff with all those cool gadgets, then you'll love this film. And plus, you get to laugh at the the mishaps that Johnny English makes, he's such a fool :) GO AND SEE THIS ASAP ! Thank you for reading. BPH Projectionist.

Friends with Benefits (2011)

Great watch and a good comedy. Little too long though...

[6/10 · 5 October 2011]

This film was fairly good and had a few chuckles in it but the story was dragged out a little too much. As a projectionist I tend to miss the first 10 to 15 minutes of the film because I'm busy sorting stuff out up in the projection booth. This means that I sometimes miss the true meaning of some films. But with this film I caught on pretty well and rather liked the film. I would definitely recommend going to see this film if you enjoy a mixture of romance and comedy. This film is only 1hr and 49min long but I thought that it went on for over 2 hours. The story line in this film could have been a little more fast pace to keep the audience a little more motivated. The story line is great but a little confusing, so keep your hearing at a high when watching this film. This film is definitely suited for both male and female audiences and is not another one of those chick flicks that girls enjoy watching and the boys just cant stand. It's an all-rounder for both male and female viewers and a great laugh. Don't think that you don't want to watch it because I said its a little long... go and enjoy yourselves. So what are you waiting for... go and see it as soon as you can ! Hope this review was a little help for you guys:)
