Minecraft Movie sparks raucous reactions from fans

There has been an "exceptional" crowd response to A Minecraft Movie, the UK Cinema Association has said, with many young fans noisily shouting out when certain characters appear.

Some cinemas have warned that "anti-social behaviour", including "loud screaming, clapping and shouting will not be tolerated", and videos of exuberant reactions have been widely shared.

UK Cinema Association chief executive Phil Clapp said most of the behaviour has been good-natured, saying it was "seemingly driven by the desire of young people to share their experiences on social media". But he asked "those taking part to be mindful of the enjoyment of other cinema-goers".

Liverpool comedian Sam Avery told the BBC that seeing the film with his 10-year-old sons was "honestly the most joyous cinemagoing experience I've ever had".
