Me, DH and DBIL(15) went to see Batman vs Superman today. A family sat behind us (looked liked grandma, mum and 5 kids) and the kids ranged form about 4-10. They were making noise throughout the entire film - this was just about bearable as I do accept that there will be some noise.
However, in the last half an hour they just didn't stop, and in complete ruined the end of the film as it was difficult to concentrate - and in some parts it was difficult to hear over them!. They were sitting on the plastic booster seats and would not sit still and just kept banging on these seats. They were shouting out about the film, making eww nosies at all the kissing scenes and one of them kept loudly repeating can we go home over and over for about 10 minuets. The mum initially made some attempt to keep them quiet but resorted to shout out them to 'shut the fuck up' numerous times.
DH did ask the Grandma if she could have a word but she ignored him. We also spoke to a member of staff who apologised, but that is not really good enough.
It is not really about the money, more about the fact that they should not have been allowed in (IMO). I don't mind noise normally, and appreciate that there will be some. I go to the cinema a lot and have never complained but the film was obviously widely unsuitable for the youngest one at least (it is 2 and a half hours and can be quite dry/confusing in places).
Wibu to send an email to the cinema outlining my complaint? I am willing to be told I am being ridiculous!
