Thoughts On The Film.

Aside from Interstellar, this is probably the movie I'm most looking forward to seeing this year. However, I'm from the UK and therefore, have no choice but to resort to being patient and watching it on the internet.

So while I'm patiently waiting to watch it, I thought I'd ask those of you who have seen it, what you made of it? I know not many of you will have seen it because it only came out on limited release yesterday and it would probably be better to wait until Tuesday (When the movie is released on US Itunes) to post this. However, I thought I'd ask now as the anticipation is killing me and I'm anxious to get a read on whether the movie will be able to match my high expectations or not.

So for those of you who have seen it, please give your rating out of 10 and share what you liked and disliked about the movie.

Also, if you have managed to see it for free on the internet, a link to where I can watch it would be much appreciated (No spammers please).

I really liked it the first time I saw it, but then I rewatched it today (six months later) and the novelty and quirkiness after the first twenty minutes or so, disappears, and it begins to drag and quite badly too. It is not a film that holds up well to a second viewing and this is because the characters (apart from Ashley) never progress or evolve... for almost two hours.

First viewing I rated it a 7, now maybe a 5.
