From my experience over the last few years of coming to this cinema, I think I can say with some certainty that this place is great. The movie tickets are cheap, the selection is great, the food and drinks are pretty standard and there's even an arcade off to the side with a small cafe. Some of the machines were out of order, but the ones that were in order worked just fine. Plus, having Sega Rally championship earns this place many more points in my book. However, the movie started half an hour late, with twenty minutes of advertising, followed by two movie trailers, followed by another ten minutes of advertising. I'd eaten half my popcorn by the time the movie started. The food and drinks are a bit pricy for what they are, but take what you can get. The tickets are cheap, the arcade is cheap and the staff are pretty friendly. Come whenever you get the chance. 4.5 (or 4) out of 5 stars.
