Film 16

Has anyone seen High Rise yet?
I've liked most of Ben Wheatley's other films but couldn't get through A Field in England. Its out digitally on April 28th but just wondering if its worth seeing in the cinema.

Saw it last week.

Enjoyed it. Good cast and a typical early J G Ballard plotline. Especially good is the 1970s 'feel' - from clothes, hairstyles, cars and food to the language. It is probably riding on Tom Hiddleston's recent fame in The Night Manager. He is excellent, but there are some other stand-out performances too - Jeremy Irons, Sienna Miller, Keeley Hawes.

Heard good things. The soundtrack is meant to be great. Think Portishead do a cover of ABBA's "S.O.S." which I'm intrigued to hear.
