'Tis pretty messed up. None of you gonna like this one.

Being the sicko I am, I enjoyed it. Simple, warped, no-frills horror. :D

I knew it would be a longshot though

But maybe after it's released in cinemas next week???

I've no experience yet of DL a movie so close to cinema release date

Operation Mincemeat is officially released today in cinemas(but where I don't know)

It will also be on Netflix on May 11 apparently

The movie is still not on PB/LT but a previous BBC documentary is available on the subject as it is of course based on a true story.

But id prefer to watch the movie first then the documentary

In which case we may have to wait for the Netflix version then until after its in Cinemas

I use my Son's netflix as a guest and sometimes what he can see in UK I cannot see in Thailand.

Or I have to wait longer....

Most likely a decent download will be available long before the Thailand release.

Very good. A moody, gritty 3 hours of crime and corruption. A worthy addition to the Batman franchise.

I actually watched the documentary last night. Pretty much like reading the book before watching the movie.

Very entertaining and hope the movie lives up to it.

I'm afraid it didn't do it for me at all this time. Moody and gritty = slow and boring. Hugely disappointing.

Ambulance. Very decent 'bank heist gone wrong' movie, I thought. Action jammed. Can't remember ever seeing a bad Jake Gyllenhaal film if I'm honest (though I'm not a massive fan of the shaky camera style).
