I'm thinking of adult films (grown up not porny Grin).
DD is home from uni in a few days, and we usually treat ourselves to a trip to the cinema. What's worth seeing at the moment? -I was thinking of the Tourist (the new Johnny Depp one), or Unstoppable (with Denzel Washington). Anyone seen those?
We are not averse to a good kids one either (last thing we went to was Toy Story). Any suggestions? TIA.

yanbu. Xmas Grin

I like the sound of Unstoppable.
although, I used to fancy Denzel but he looks too old and fatherly now. :(

FWIW I loved the new Harry Potter Xmas WinkXmas Grin

I saw Unstoppable a few weeks back and really enjoyed it. The story is just a run away train and not much else, but it is exciting, a bit like Speed without the romance.Chris Pine is cute as well and works well with Denzil.

I enjoyed the tourist - has a few moments of so bad it's good, but it did have some good funny moments.

I want to go and see Tron..... but need a night when both dh and I aren't doing something, and a babysitter!

I enjoyed the lesbian family flick a few weeks ago (ashamed to have NO idea what the name was....). Good evening's entertainment...

Thanks for all the replies. - DD might like the Harry Potter (she's seen all the other ones - I haven't so wouldn't have clue what's happening probably)

Tourist is getting mixed reviews - on the chat thread I started no seemed to like it. I do lurve Johnny enjoy Johnny Depp's work though. Grin

Tourist is utter cack. Really. And I speak as a fellow lover of All Things Johnny Depp. Angelina is garbage in it too. I went with Dp and we both agreed that it was a waste of two hours and £50 (hotdogs, popcorn, bucket of Coke etc) so immediately went back in to see the Harry Potter film. I'm not a huge Harry aficionado (unlike DP) but I thoroughly enjoyed myself.

quite fancy london boulevard but only cause colin farrel is in it

orangina · 16/12/2010 15:52

Sorry, yes, it was "The Kids are Alright".... really enjoyed it!

(duh, no brain left atm.....!)

orangina · 16/12/2010 15:53

Wanted to see the latest Mike Leigh too (again, the name escapes me.... Blush), but I'm not sure it's on general release any more....

(I don't out enough, obviously!)

FindingAManger · 16/12/2010 15:59

DD (aged 3) found Toy Story 3 to be very scary. I said but it was funny too! and she looked at me very earnestly and asked "what was the funny bit Mummy?".
I didn't find it that scary but I did cry!

haven't seen anything else for an age - I'd like the see the Swedish Dragon tattoo trilogy

FellatioNelson · 16/12/2010 16:04

Another one for The Kids Are Alright

It's a fantastic film - will have you laughing and crying.
