With 14 screens, it's very large and rather soulless (it seems to be going for a 50s vibe), with the obligatory bowling alley attached. It is at least spacious and clean inside and staff are friendly, if perhaps undermotivated. Screens are comfortable with seats that recline slightly. In case you want to see the latest big films, it's the only English-language cinema for several miles, and is the only Showcase cinema in London (for those thankfully rare occasions when only Showcase is screening a film). |
