An interesting one, I took my son to the parents and babies screening (highly recommend to all the parents of young ones out there) and although the experience was great,my little man was very well behaved,I can’t help but feel a little disappointed by my choice of viewing…

Save The Cinema follows a woman trying to save the Lyric Cinema in wales from being torn down and replaced with a Mall, based on a true story the premise of the film is a heart warming story, unfortunately due to patchy acting and hard to connect with characters I felt watching this became a bit of a chore and even Tom Feltons casting did little to help. I must admit there were a couple of comical moments here and there that gave me a light chuckle,but these were few and far between. A 4 from me I’m afraid.

Cosy drama is watchable but isn’t worth saving your local cinema for.

A pretty cool true story, but the film itself? Rather poor.

'Save the Cinema' is simply too on the nose for my liking, it's cringey in a fair few bits and even pretentious in others. It does have a good cast, though that aside it struggles to get away from the fact that it feels like a made-for-television Christmas-esque movie - literally so with the plot.

Samantha Morton, Jonathan Pryce and Tom Felton are as solid as you'd expect, though the Welsh accents kept taking me out of it - Pryce was born in Wales admittedly, yet even his accent sounded off... might just be me though. I didn't overly like any of that trio's, or their co-star's tbh, performances though, I just like Morton/Pryce/Felton from others things more than anything.

I wouldn't say this is a bad film, it's just a really lousy one in my opinion. I could see it finding an audience though.
