Eat Pray Love. I went with my Mum and it was superb… Loved Julia Roberts in it, she rocks!
The sorcerers Apprentice, with the kids, another disney goody
RED very funny and quirky with a great cast indeed!!!!
Avatar 3D but had to take a seat in the front row as thats all that was left (didn’t know you could pre-book online!! Not the best, got a sore neck!)
Eat Pray Love at the gold class movies, awesome.
It was Michael Caine in ‘Harry Brown’. I enjoyed the move and watching Michael Caine, but it was pretty dark and depressing. The difference between this movie and Clint Eastwood’s ‘Gran Torino’ was that they had a lot more humour to break the heavy parts.
Eat Pray Love. I know there are a lot of haters out there, but I still like Julia!
The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, it was a fun watch
The Girl Who Played with Fire, brriliant
I saw Animal Kingdom, what a powerful film!
Vampires suck. It had its moments but I would much rather the Rialto experence.
