Is this sentence correct

Have any of you seen that movie? or is it saw?
  

Top answer

Hi Anon You have to use the past participle "seen" in combination with "have". That tense is called the present perfect : - Have any of you seen that movie? --------------------------------------------------- You could also write that sentence in the simple past tense this way: - Did any of you see that movie?
