I have been to watch this film tonight and the cinema was quite full, I knew the take Oliver Stone used on the events of Sept 11th 2001 as i had read several articles in my Empire mag and also seen a few reviews on the TV. I don't see myself as any kind of political commentator and news articles pass me by as i don't watch news programmes and read papers rarely. But everyone knows about this horror.
before the film even started a group of 'young adults', male and female, got into an argument with other 'young adults' sitting near them up at the back. This bickering and abuse carried on into the start of the film and a few other people told them to be quiet several times.
Then when a couple of the young females in the group started saying very loudly that the film was 'sh!t' and laughing and joking about they expected to see more people crushed, a large number in the cinema started collectively telling them to get out if they didn't want to let others watch in peace, me being one of them, i actually told them to grow up and show some god dammed respect, these 8 or so morons then left the cinema and hurled abuse at the rest of the people in there, it was sick and i and many many others were absolutely appalled.
Apart from the sensitivity of the subject matter, if you choose to go and pay to see a film, at what point would you feel any need to behave in this way?

Hi Dot,
These morons probably planned to do exactly what they did, it's all a bit of a giggle to them. These days all these youngsters want to see is blood and gore. Some children of today have no respect whatsoever.
I know if I went to see a film of this nature I'd certainly keep my opinions to myself, I certainly wouldnt go broadcasting them in a packed cinema. I'd talk about it to my nearest and dearest if I felt the need to.

Well I know it's not kosher but, at the very very least these young people decided to push the boundaries a necessary part of growing up in a safe (albiet bloody annoying) way, and paid for the privelidge to do that, rather than nick someones car, mug a schoolchild for their mobile or stand around drinking Lambrini generally causing a menace. I generally wait for the DVD unless it's a U.
Apart from Dot's experience, there are two other reasons why I don't enjoy going to the cinema as much as I used to:
1.
The apparent inability of so many people to watch a film without the need to eat. I dislike the sickly smell of the huge buckets of popcorn they clutch.
2.
The fact that (to me) so many films seem to be created around a newly-devised special effect;
I bet it's an age thing.

The last time I went to the cinema I was sitting in front of a couple of women who had seen the movie several days before. They were talking about what was going to happen next in every blimmin scene and after the fifth time of missing a surprise I got up and told them they were freakin rude..and I moved seats.
How was the movie once you got to enjoy it, dot?

unfortunately,many 'young adults' as you call them feel an irresistable need to impress their peers.they seem to think that they are the first people ever to do this and that it is incredibly funny.
from your description,it would also appear that they are afraid to show their true feelings so hide them deep down by saying how 'sh*t' the film is etc etc

Too many people nowadays are too disrespectful of others and only care about annoying them while they entertain themselves. It IS getting too much of a hassle to see a movie in a cinema because of people who do this, but why should we have to suffer? Perhaps what we need to do is petition the cinema's to have an usher in EVERY theatre while the movie is playing. If anyone is disruptful, they get kicked out without a patron having to leave the movie to fetch an employee.
