December 2016 at the Cinema
A little late getting this post out due to the end of year posts! A very busy month at the cinema although I do expect this month to be the busiest ever!
I thought it would also be a great idea to highlight the amazing value for money a Cineworld Unlimted Card is at £17.40 per month and seeing eight films that meant I paid £2.17 for each film!
I managed to see the following films:
7th – Sully: Miracle on the Hudson – Review
8th – Snowden – Review
14th – Moana – Review
14th – Office Christmas Party – Review
22nd – The Nightmare Before Christmas – Review
27th – Rogue One: A Star Wars Story – Review
29th – Why Him? – Review
29th – Passengers – Review

Top 25 – Male Performances in 2016
I thought I would put together a new list this year for what I saw in 2016 (here) with the standout male performances of the year, this is going to combine the whole leading and supporting roles. Just what I have been really impressed with!
Let’s take a look at who made the list . . .
2016 at the Cinema!
2016 was another good year for films released at the cinema and I think the standard was pretty good, I managed to miss a lot of the films that seemed to be regarded as the worst of the year which is always a big bonus!
This time last year (and the year before) I was celebrating a record-breaking total. You know what I have only gone and done it again setting a new record this year, beating last year by a whole 12 films! Which I think is pretty impressive although I seem to be treating it very much like a game now in trying to beat the previous year. Even monthly trying to outdo the year before. I was so close to 80 and I think that will therefore be my target in 2017. Good job I have an Unlimited Card at Cineworld to be able to do this!
