Yup as well as $21.50 Gold class tickets + cheaper popcorn and coke. (IIRC its something like $5-$7 for a small combo).
$15 for couples combo (medium popcorn, 2x large drinks) which keeps the 3 kids happy. And I think you can add extra items to combos at an almost normal(ish) price
 
IT (2017)

Finally seen this much talked about remake from earlier this year. The movie looked amazing and the CGI was some of the best I've seen in a horror, so the budget must have been large. I thought the kids played it well with that childhood innocence mixed with the ability to understand something the adults just can't see (literally). A few cliches here and there common to movies where kids are the stars, but not to the detriment of the film. However, apart from a mildly scary finale, the film really had no scare factor for me. Maybe I've just seen too many films like this to find it scary. Also, the film went way too long, another excess modern film makers seem to be indulging in these days. I liked the film, but not for the reasons I should have. 5/10.

Jumanji. Enjoyed it, fun movie with some really funny moments.

And Karen Gillan, not sure what to say, really, but man. :hearteyes:

I can't wait to take the niece and nephew to Jumanji
 
Three Billboards...: expectedly excellent. Would watch McDonaugh movies all day. Their drama rings so true in midst of all their dark comedy. Harrellson and McDormand put in ripper performances.

So much unexpected in this, absolutely loved it!
 
Thor: Ragnarok

Typical MCU fare saved by the Kiwi bro humour. That was unexpected and hilarious

Thinking back, the Dr Strange cameo was one of the most pointless cameos I can remember

Can anyone offer a good reason as to why they really needed him?

Damm he was funny cinema i was in cracked up every time he talked haha.
 
The House

Plenty of laughs to be had

"You wanna get f*cked by a fire dick?" was unexpectedly hilarious

Im trying to finish Valerian and the city of a thousand planets.

I cant sit through more than 30 mins at a time its just awful.

Its strange to think at 1 stage I thought Dane Dehaan had a decent future as an actor.

I really dont know wtf Luc Besson was thinking here.

O/10
 
The Battle of the Sexes (2017)

This legendary tennis match between Bobby Riggs & Billy Jean King at a time when the women's liberation movement was gaining momentum is a gratifying experience. It’s a decent tennis movie, solidly told and choreographed, but it’s in the film’s depiction of a same-sex romance between King and her hairdresser, played beautifully by Andrea Riseborough, where things truly comes alive. 6/10
 
Three Billboards...: expectedly excellent. Would watch McDonaugh movies all day. Their drama rings so true in midst of all their dark comedy. Harrellson and McDormand put in ripper performances.
With a cast like that I’m super excited to see this movie.
 
Watched The Disaster Artist. Close to the film of the year and I don't really like the Franco's
Very funny and surprisingly poignant.

As an aside i am currently watching World Safari 2 (Alby Mangels film for those who remember from back in the 80s) on YouTube. Judy Green who i always thought was the perfect woman walking around in a wet tshirt for most of the film, whats not to love!
 
Jumanji (Welcome to the Jungle) 7.5/10

The family adventure genre is normally god-awful but they got this bang on. Reminded me of Tropic Thunder at times, very entertaining and funny.

JUMANJI 8/10

A pleasant surprise - Nice update to differ from the Robin Williams one. Nice homage though with the engraving on the hut.

Jack Black steals this movie and it's PMSL funny. I wanna marry Karen Gillan!!!!!

Agreed. And yeah she was gorgeous throughout.

Yep, turned it off halfway through and haven't tried again.
 
Not sure if this has been done yet but...

Bright (2017) - Netflix only

Panned by critics but liked by the general public, and I definitely agree with the latter. Sure, it's not going to win awards any time soon but those calling it the worst of 2017 (coughemojimoviecough) need their heads checked - or were paid off by Rupert Murdoch, surely. Essentially Bad Boys 4 with monsters and magic and Will Smith definitely has stepped it up since his recent debacles.

Excellent world building at the start, had me hooked with the concept, delivered on it even if it resorts to the same buddy cop movie cliches. Joel Edgerton as Will Smith's orc partner provides an excellent contrast and despite the heavy-handedness at times the action scenes definitely put it among the better movies of 2017.

If you have Netflix, don't miss out.

Have a read of this reviewer melt over the sequel and blaming people for enjoying Bright.

**** I’m starting to hate professional reviewers, you can clearly see their agenda in their reviews.
