Man I didn't realise there was free booze! I was walking around Trafalgar Sqaure to wast time :tears:

It was ok, some really cringy laugh out loud moments, really gross things but you had to laugh Lots of good comedians and some good actors in there too I didn't even recognize James Marsden as the trippy boyfriend. And,showing my age it was great to Hear Papa was a Rolling Stone at the end. Motown baby o/ 7/10

Yeah free booze and lots of nibbles. I think it's for the benefit of press hacks, VIPs rather than the poor old FMUKkers....

I quite enjoyed the free drinks though I arrived for the tail end of that. Still downed a couple for good measure. The film itself was alright. Some hits and a lot of misses. I really like the comedians in it so I expected more from them. Danny Glover was something else altogether. I usually like Luke Wilson, but I didn't so much in this. I just don't think he added anything to the character. This was fine enough and something a bit more fun after taking in Lebanon earlier. Still no more than a 6/10 for me.
102 Different free films seen in 2010 plus 2 repeat viewings and a few tv show screenings... not too shabby. Thanks to everyone for their contributions here.

Now they were certainly not there when I was there. I saw 3 down at the bottom of Trafalgar Square, but on a Traffic Island. Reminds me of the Cows that appeared a few years
