Must say I was not keen to see the Kings Speech - I was fed up watching Colin Firth in movies playing Darcy with a different name!!!

He has well and truly left Pride and Prejudice behind.

King's Speech - excellent, look forward to seeing him in future movies.

A Single Man - quite good.

You will enjoy Chris

Must admit I am looking forward to it what with the trailers and the drama on BBC2 re this.

The film was brilliant and like others have said, you didn't hear anything other than the film.

On the way out I overheard a man say 'Not one special effect in the whole film, just damn good acting all the way through' and that was so true.

It's a wonderful movie - I loved every minute of it. The people in the cinema didn't make a sound other than laugh at the funny moments. When it comes out on DVD I'll buy it because it is one movie I could watch again and again.

It is a fantastic film ,and when I went to see it in the cinema you couldn't have hear a pin drop.That is a first for me lol

I dont think I fancy it. OH says he likes the sound of it.
I have been to see a film for years. The noise hurts my ears.why do they need to have it so loud?
If I remember rightly, my son went to see a Bond film and he told his Dad not to bother going as the sound was ear splitting.

I went last Thursday afternoon (Pensioners only)to see the Kings Speech and there wasn't a sound of paper rustling,slurping of drinks.

Mind it is an Independant cinema not one of the big conglomerates.

And just going off topic..I worked there over 35years ago.

Also I found I was stuffing tissue paper in my ears as the sound was so loud! I do sound like a grumpy old woman but then I suppose I am!!
Sandra my gchildren bought me that - old Pierce was OK but couldn't sing if I recall correctly! OH enjoyed it but once was enough

Thanks for that information Chris. OH will not go to the cinema after i took him to see Mamma Mia He says Pierec Bronsnan put him off going to the cinema for life Do not knw why? Sandy

We saw it at our local Uni cinema. Not a peep out of the audience the whole time.

Magical.

I so agree with you, Chris - people talking through the film drives me barmy too. Actually, I have to say, when I went to see The King's Speech, there wasn't a sound from anybody throughout the film.

early in May!! It is released on DVD and I have just ordered it. Even if I was able to go to a cinema I would not. The pleasure was taken out of it by the sounds of slurping drinks and the noise of viewers eating popcorn plus the odd ringing of a mobile.

In my youth if you unwrapped a sweet noisily heads would shoot round.
