This film is saved by Kate Winslet and Jack Black, I just love their understated relationship and how it develops, their characters seem genuine and I root for them every time! Cameron Diaz overacts her role, I am not a lover of Jude Law and the scenes with his children are twee. Nevertheless in the UK this film is on every Christmas and I watch it every Christmas!

Entertaining but not as good as the original
I love that they recreated a classic but updated it. Kevin Hart and Dwight Johnson are hysterical in it! Jack Black is beyond awful. He is supposed to be a teenage girl, but he behaves as if he is flamboyant and mocking of a homosexual. It's embarrassing to watch his scenes and horrible acting in this particular movie.

Terrible Cgi scenes
One for the Black list
The most recent Sky Original film set at a Black Site facility. Despite a talented cast the plot and story are quite simple. Rather slow and boring to get going for a short film. Almost more Slasher film than action once a character goes on the rampage. The apparent twist was obvious from the start. One to miss.

This was a intresting small snip into the friendship of James Potter and Sirius Black. I really wished they made another book or even movie about the characters. WOULD DEVOUR IT!!!!

It tries too hard; it’s awkwardly put together; it’s an over-the-top, unnecessary attempt to contextualize the film; and it’s of poor quality.

"I remember leaving the screening full of emotions. I think everyone should try to see this beautiful black and white short, made whilst Abderrahmane was studying film at VGIK in Moscow."

"Nude vampires, a gun-toting talking black cat, and devil as ultimate party starter aside, the miracle of this novel is that every time you read it, it's a different book."

"Walter Mosley reminds me of Raymond Chandler, [except] writing from the black side of town…He has the ability to describe the negative effects of racism while writing an entertaining novel."
