5/10

Honestly I has the displeasure of having to watch this whilst in holland, and i think 5 is kind! There is NOTHING to this film, i don't understand the name, it doesn't even have anything to do with Red Riding Hood! She wears red, and there is one (ridiculous!) scene where they cite the little rhyme, cringe worthy from start to finish, but as you say i guess i'm not their target audience, the girlfriend wasn't the slightest impressed either though

Felt exactly the same, was looking forward to this, and for some reason it just failed to grab me, and was limp and boring... Can't quite say why, but unimpressive...

Really didn't like this film, the main character made some totally unbelievable decisions which ruined what could have been a good film.


4/10

I'd forgotten i'd actually watched this film But now you rate it, i checked the trailer and remember it, i actually thought it was pretty damn good, well executed, the ending was a little sour i guess, i'd rate this higher than Red Riding Hood anyway

District 9
Love it. Been waiting to sit down and watch this for ages and never got around to it. I love the whole setting. Yes, the apartheid connection is there, but it was just so nice to see something like this NOT going on in America. I like the whole mix of normal filming along with some fly on the wall documentary style. The level of action was just about right, not too constant or over the top and it kept the pace up when needed but also backed out totally to allow you to see a slightly softer and deeper side to some of the characters. I try not to get too in-depth with films and just want to come away having enjoyed it...and this I did
9/10

Beautiful beautiful film to watch! Really do love this for just being different in it's own right. Top class random film to recommend!

Had I not known it was based around a true story then it would have been dull, it was only because I know somebody actually went through it that it made me think that little bit more and kept the boredom away. A decent enough film but not sure I'd recommend it to others.
5/10

This really caught me, and seeing the helicopter arrive honestly nearly had me bawling in the cinema for the first time since i was a nipper, really not sure why, as some people have said it drags on the same place for too long. But i disagree, i really really for some reason became deeply emotionally attached to this film!

Exactly how i'd put it, its what you obviously expect and sill, but if it wasn't or it was too clever it would actually be terrible! I agree, i'm not one for will ferrell films or the like in most cases find them tedious but the inbetweeners has caught me off guard and i love it. I think it helps that the first series was released only a few years after i left school and could possibly relate in silly ways, i think there is a whole generation like me who were easily exploited into liking this franchise. But i don't care, its genius!
