1. How often do you watch a movie?
I'm very lucky that my day job starts very, very early in the morning, I finish around breakfast or lunchtime at the latest meaning I have almost all day to watch movies if I desire too. However depending on how busy I am with friends and family it can be anywhere between 1-2 films a day, however I may only review one a day.
2. What movie genre are you particularly fond of?
It may come as a surprise to some people, but I absolutely love old black and white movies. Norman Wisdom and Jerry Lewis are two of my favourite actors. Norman Wisdom and Jerry Lewis were both known as fantastic comedians back in the early 1960's and 70's. Although Jerry Lewis's movies were in colour, nearly all of Norman Wisdom's films were in black and white. Their films are some of the best comedies you will ever come across especially if it's a genre you enjoy!
3. What was the last movie you watched and liked?
If were talking at the cinema as apposed to a film I have seen hundreds of times on Blu-Ray or DVD, I loved "Logan" starring Hugh Jackman. I'm not the biggest fan of the "X-Men" franchise, however I was thoroughly impressed with Logan!
4. What was the last movie you watched and hated?
There have been a few films recently that I didn't particularly like, but I didn't hate them. However I did review "The Nightmare on Elm Street" collection, I couldn't stand any of them apart from the first film. For the most part they are very boring and not entertaining at all, with terrible acting. I'd happily not watch them again.
5. What is your most favourite movie of all time?
There are so many movies! I'm going to go on the three that I have seen the most which are The Addams Family, Space Jam and Grease.
6. Your most favourite guilty pleasure movie?
George of the Jungle, starring Brendan Fraser, it's absolutely ridiculous, but it's so much fun and brings back wonderful memories of my childhood. I have seen it countless times, it makes me laugh everytime.
Very similiar to question five, I have seen "The Addams Family" honestly over a hundred times. I even went to see the stage production two days ago. When I was training as an actor at College, I had seen "Grease" approximately 200 times. I quite often have "Signs" on repeat at home when cleaning or tidying as I know it so well. That's another firm favourite.
8. Are you the type of person to watch a movie on it's first day of showing?
We only have a tiny cinema where I live, so often we don't even get films are on opening day, when we do, we tend to go a couple of days after opening night as it's so busy. I'm always curious to know what other people have to say too. I always go in with an open mind, but it's interesting to hear what people think too.
9. Do you use fandango or do you pre book your movie tickets?
My fiance and myself always tend to pre-book our tickets, so we are guaranteed a space, especially if the film is very popular.
10. Movie house/Blu-Ray or download?
I try and see as much as I can at the cinema, however sadly our cinema doesn't show everyone movie release, only really the most popular films. So I tend to buy a lot on Blu-Ray, purely because they look and sound incredible. We do however have an Amazon Prime account too, I try to watch what I can on there, especially if it is a recent release. I don't illegally download nope.
11. How often do you go to a movie house to watch a movie?
Twice a month if I can, I struggle to see a lot of late night showings as I am so early for work the next day.
12. What are some movies that made you cry?
The Theory of Everything, Toy Story 3, Father of the Bride 2 and The Parent Trap.
I do indeed.

15. Who are your favourite Directors?
James Cameron, Steven Spielberg, Jerry Lewis, Christopher Nolan and Mel Gibson.
16. Are you particular with movie score/soundtracks/music?

On my spotify, I have the "Mary Poppins" soundtrack on repeat most days and "Beauty and the Beast" two of my favourite soundtracks.

The Beach and The Hunger Games being the most accurate personally. Sadly most of the time I enjoy the book more.
