I stayed in a Disney hotel for a special birthday and arrived back late one night to find I had a balloon and a birthday card from Mickey! :D I was also given a badge with my name on it to wear in the park. It was great fun as all the staff joined in with best wishes and the characters also made me special! o/ Brill!!!

This was the 3rd time a free film has been in my local cinema in Wales. Great start with sound but no picture. Managed to get the visual working just as the film started.
I liked Emma T as the tormented author trying to keep control of her characters in the book, but she was up against finance, a scheming Mr Disney and a whole load of personal baggage. Parts made me laugh, smile and sigh. Not a great film but enjoyable.

I agree not a great film but I thoroughly enjoyed it. The performances were brilliant and the story was actually rather interesting.... somthing different, I thought.

Saw this last night at MetroCentre. A very enjoyable film. Not ashamed to say me and the fella were both welling up near the end and the lady next to us was inconsolable. Bring a hankie.

Eventually seen this movie today, it was worth the wait! Emma Thompson is one of the best actresses to ever walk this planet! She played the part sooooo well. I liked this character although i would'nt have liked to work with her. It was very funny and very emotional. Tom Hanks was brilliant as always and Colin Farrell was excellent, I have never seen him in a role like this before. 10/10 o/
Preferred cinemas: Any in Edinburgh!

Watched it two weeks ago and I must admit I liked it.
My other half was in tears at one point !
Well worth watching
