Not for the faint hearted...

I have read many negative reviews about this movie not being true to the story and if I knew more about the terrible events of 2008, then I might have more of an opinion.

As it stands I thought it was a rollercoaster 2 hour plus ride that kept me and especially my wife on the edge of our seats.

Occasionally there were a few scenes that seemed a little corny or over dramatised for the big screen but that is usually the case.

The movie itself is very intense, emotional and there are scenes of very strong violence which are definitely not for the faint hearted.

Overall Hotel Mumbai is not an easy watch at times but if you are not easily offended then I would definitely recommend giving it a go.

Not what I expected!

Fantasy island, a new holiday destination where all your dreams come true but careful what you ask for as every fantasy can take a turn for the worse or turn out completely different to how you had hoped.
Perfect story to get lost in if you can keep up with all the different scenarios! Brilliant idea and such entertainment brilliant film from start to finish with a cheesy American twist at the end, although it worked well I half hoped for a different twist, maybe from a mother looking for revenge. I really enjoyed the way they brought every character together and show how they all linked in with the film, Don't want to go into too much detail, wouldn't want to ruin it for others, on the whole really good watch highly recommend.

Just watched the first three episodes of this lost classic doctor who that was first shown in the 1960s but was junked by the BBC in the 70s but all that remains of the story is episodes one and three untill now we can watch it in full animated release is it any good so far yes the plot which takes place in and around Gatwick airport in which aliens are kindapping young people thru chameleon tours and replacing them with dupaites. The plot is very invasion of the body snatchers but on a BBC budget. Acting wise Patrick troughton is in his element as the doctor with support from the rest of the cast. Looking forward to the animated release later in the year fury from the deep that once a true classic

I really enjoyed this film. I think the plot was great, the fact that it was based on a true story is always a plus for me and that it was done well? Honestly, I can't really think of anything that I hated about this film. I thought that Owen Wilson was phenomenal. It's definitely a different type of role for him, as he is known for his more comedic characters, but I thought he was great and believable and I was rooting for him throughout the whole movie. I really loved the action sequences, the fact that Wilson's character isn't your typical main hero in most military films - again, I just really enjoyed this film. I was going to say that I was surprised that critics hated it as much as they did, but really am I?
