Possibly the wrong place to post this, but I need to use up my final Groupon Odeon cinema ticket before Friday and wondered whether anyone had any recommendations on what to see?

I live in North London (Kentish Town) and happy to drive somewhere if it comes highly recommended.

Thanks in advance.
NOt sure what to suggest but there's the Final Hobbit Film, Imitiation Game, PAddintgon, Mockingjay hope this helps
preferred locations Shepherds Bush, Westfield, Notting Hill, Central London, Wimbledon, Islington, Wandsworth thanks

The Odeon Camden Town is showing all of the above, except Mockingjay, but including Interstellar, and same at Odeon Holloway. I have enjoyed them all. Depends what sort of films you like?

Definitely recommend seeing the play The Nether if SFF releases tickets for other dates. It's visually stunning, absorbing and dark.

Also got special email inviting me to book tickets only to log in and be told I am not VIP. Unimpressed!

I complained and got this back:
Unfortunately we have had a slight glitch in the system, all the tickets for The Nether on the 26th March at the Duke of York theatre have now been allocated, should we get any additional tickets we will endeavour to let you know.

It's worth writing in, just got this:
Tickets have now become available and I am able to send you a pair, however you must be able to attend, please confirm.

saw Three Lions yesterday, was very funny. The guy playing beckham LOOKED exactly like Becks. In retrospect, perhaps sending an Etonian Tory, a posh prince and an awesome winger cum dimwit orally wasn't such a good idea to front the England 2018 bid. Christ, were we really that stupid? But it provides some fantastic laughs for this show.

also saw The Ether a few weeks back which was thought provoking but a little flat and dull, I felt I'd seen all the "innovations" in it before.

and should mention over the last month have seen View from the Bridge, which is a pretty brutal family tragedy, Mark Strong is excellent, and Beyond the Beautiful Flowers, which was goodness a fair bit too long but interesting and again thoughtful and darkly tragic.
fav 5 films of the year - Tenet, Bill n Ted 3, Invisible Man, JoJo Rabbit, ?

Dirty Rotten Scoundrels at Manchester Opera House

This is highly recommended - may still be tickets available for tonight's performance - see the link for tickets visit showfilmfirst.com and use code 894296. The show was hilarious, a bit of adult humour and many gaffes that didn't know how many were intended or not but it still got the audience on board and made the show even more funny. There was a 20 mins gap where a scene change hadn't taken place with apologies from the announcer but still not sure if this is part of the act?? If you can get tickets and have the time, get to the box office for 5pm tonight - good luck!
