The film looks terrible but Douglas Booth looks good and since he's my sister's current crush of the week, I wouldn't mind getting tickets for her.

I noticed that this film on limited release in the US and even with that, it's done quite badly. I hope this marks the end of Miley Cyrus "acting" career.

Has anyone seen this yet and can give reviews either negative or postive?

I gave my tickets for yesterday to someone else on here to use at Trafford Centre and they let me know afterwards that they were told the tickets were only valid for the 10am or 12 noon screenings of LOL, the tickets say any screening, though the very nice manager did let them go and see any film of their choice, so they went to see SWATH. Just checked and found these are the only showings and wondered if this was only at Trafford Centre or are other cinemas only showing early morning times even though the ticket says any? We are due to go on Monday and wondering whether its worth turning up late in the hope of seeing something else!

I looked up the screening times in advance then just turned up at the required time. I had no issues exchanging the sky voucher. The ticket should be redeemable against any screening on that date at the specific cinema you booked for.

This film is sooooooooooo bad. Save yourself the cinema trip and stay home instead. 2/10.

I was torn between 1/10 and 2/10 and decided for the higher mark because it has one thing in its favour: it is short.

My local screenings are 12.45 and 3 pm. Also exchanged tickets with no problems. I knew that the film was supposed to be short but it felt long.....
And though it's a 12A and sky was giving up to 4 tickets for it, it's NOT a family movie even for a family with older kids. It's at least a 13+ or 14+?
And not sure 13+ and 14+ ones would be happy watching it with their parents...

[spoiler]sex in the boys toilets, :nono: condoms, drugs, etc[/spoiler]

Anyway we had a big bag with drinks, sweets, popcorn, etc with us ,that helped!
There were some funny moments in the movie and a couple of songs....
but LOTS of cliches
and Miley Cyrus was really bad....

Went and saw this last night at Empire Poole with the wife and kids (teenagers).We were in a small cinema about 45 seats and there were only 6 people watching it and 5 were in my party (8pm start). As for the film it was watchable nothing to write home about the usual american high school kids and their love life. My daughters really enjoyed it, so a teeny bopper film.
