Open thread: What's the first film you remember watching?

Tell us about your earliest movie memories. Plus – your reviews of the latest releases

Do you remember your first trip to the cinema? Or how about the first film you watched at home? Was it something now considered a children's classic, or an altogether more forgettable flick? Or perhaps you have early memories of being dragged along to see something your parents wanted to watch? We'd like to hear about your earliest film-watching memories – let us know yours in the thread below.

We're also keen to hear about any more up-to-date films you've been watching. Here's what some @guardianfilm followers had to say about recent films they'd seen:

@ktd_91

Crazy, Stupid, Love is unpredictable and full of laughs – certainly not the usual romcom rubbish I expected

@wunderfin

Just watched Red Tails, a WWII story from Black US soldiers pov. I wanted insightful but got cheesy instead!

@pope_andy

Once Upon a Time in Anatolia. Long slow with exquisite cinematography. Perfect arthouse

@Buckingham_Htl

Best thing about Dark Shadows is that it's always easier to sleep in the shade! Early exit now, suitably refreshed

@sam_jobson

The Untouchables, Sean Connery is great and the pram scene at Grand Central is unbelievably tense! Modern classic.

• If you've seen any films in the last week, good or bad, let us know. You can either leave a comment in the thread below, or tweet your thoughts with the hashtag #gdnreview. We'll pick the best and show them off here once a week.
