I had the best news all year today when i found out that I will be able to see my best film in the cinema all digitally remastered. It's showing from 27th May for a limited period but I cannot find out if it is showing me. Anyone know if 1) it's showing at Buewater or 2) has a list of where it is showing.

If no one knows then at least you know now that it is being re-released, make sure you see this. The film can only be described as a sensory masterpiece.

Absolutely. Saw Redux on the big screen when it was released in a decent London cinema, and it was incredible. The sound of the Arc Light carpet bombing shook the place.

You just couldn't take your eyes off the screen and the packed cinema was just left stunned and speechless at the end, you just felt like you'd taken a few punches to the head.

Highly reccommended on the big screen. cool

I say the same thing. There isn't even one great scene to make up for a dull long movie. A few quotable (and overly done so) lines and that is it.

I'm in too on that assessment - really not that good sadly.

i think it's a great film, heavy going in parts but very good - gets a bit 'out there' towards the end but doesn't spoil it for me.

Redux is too long though.

I am well surprised at that. Can't be everyone's cup of tea but I wouldn't have thought anyone could call it crap. Is mean girls your favourite film? wink

No one said it was 'crap'. We said it's massively overhyped.
