What sort of mood would you be in for Psycho? That often decides the evening more than a rating does.

Aisling, would be nice to come back to this thread once a few more people have given it a go.

Psycho is one I am weighing up. This is the sort of choice I might miss without someone putting it forward.

Ronan, same question here. A quick note on the pace would help me make up my mind.
