Also known as "Pirate Radio" here in America. This film has that British sense of humor. I confess that I did fall asleep a tad in the middle. It was fun nonetheless.

A seriously boring movie.

I kept waiting to hear that Arcade Fire song Wake Up, but to no avail.

So much fun, you guys. Everybody [else] was decked out in zombie gear and makeup. There was a scene of Grauman's Chinese Theatre in the film and the zombie crowd went wild because that's where we were. Jesse Eisenberg spoke very softly and sometimes I couldn't hear the dialogue over the roar of the zombie audience. The Easter egg at the end of the film after the credits was confusing.

Pretty interesting film. I kept trying to keep track of all 9 characters in my head to see if I missed any; that was kind of distracting. The ending was ambiguous.

It's very educational.

It wasn't so bad. Previews were a little misleading. Story was a little predictable. Dialogue was a little cheesy.

I didn't even know there was a new Futurama movie. I think it was Calvin who let me know about it. It wasn't particularly laugh out loud humorous all the time, but I was amused throughout.

Free screenings sure are getting crowded now. I guess things can't stay underground forever. Also, I guess it was a small theatre. In any case, it was a funny film. Kirsten Wiig played the "straight man", weird.

Terrible seating (front row, because we got there late), but wonderful film. I have to say, I miss Quentin Tarantino films a little bit, where seemingly disparate scenes eventually converge. Kill Bill didn't really do that.
