Saw this @ Liverpool - one of the most full I've seen for a screening that wasn't a kid's film. Not my usual film choice but teen's friend couldn't go! I did get into it after first 15 mins but found the more crude bits detracted from enjoyment. It was a bit uneven and required too much suspension of disbelief for me but some good music (would have prefered Comfortably Numb as Pink Floyd track) and some laughs so 5/10

I doubt get the obsession with the dog... apart from copying his owner with his back-seat antics... what did I miss?
The film itself was ok, funny in parts, but nowhere near as good as the Hangover

Saw this at Ocean Terminal and as Tiz said we had the pleasure of the company of 2 security people throughout. Did not get in to Cinema early had to wait till 25 past to get in so only half hearted attempt in searching bags probably cos of the big queue of folk.

Enjoyed film, bit crude, not as funny as Hangover but great freebie none the less

8/10 from us

Very funny film, screening 95%+ full well worth seeing twice.

We saw this in bolton. The screening was about 80% full
The film itself is great and very funny. I'm a big fan of the hangover and would say Due Date is on par
Well worth a watch

I didn't really enjoy this film that much.
It was watchable, and I did laugh a few times - I think I was just expecting it to be like the Hangover.

I was so looking forward to seeing this film after all the hype but I was quite disappointed in the end. Yes, it had some funny moments but there were few and far between. Even though it was a packed screening there was no real cracking with laughter in the audience.
