Now there’s no better way to get everyone together than with a good old-fashioned quiz.

Whether it’s to entertain the family at Christmas, for something new when you’ve got friends around – or just because you love doing quizzes and you’ll happily play alone – a quiz is a great way to spend your time.

And movies and films are one of the best subjects for quizzing because, well, people love movies and watch lots of them. That’s why we here at Screen OD have put together the ultimate movie quiz just for you.

There’s lots of questions that will take you across movie genres from comedy to drama and action to sci-fi, as well as all the answers so no-one will be left guessing at the end of this experience.

And if you don’t just want movies to test your brain power, never gear. We have loads of other quizzes for you to enjoy. Why not try our general knowledge quiz questions and answers, our TV quiz questions and answers and of course as it turns 60, why not try our Doctor Who quiz questions and answers too?
