Cinema has been a live savior since I moved to Munich about one year ago. It is one of the few…read moremovie theaters here which show movies in their original version (English). This way, I could at least understand the movie and have some fun on my free time. At first, I went there to see specific movies. But then I began attending the Sneak-Previews a.k.a. surprise movies. Most of the time the surprise movie is a good one and not always a blockbuster movie, which in my opinion is good. The best thing about the sneak-previews is that many times I get to see and enjoy a movie that I would have never seen, if I had the choice. For me the sneak-previews had a strange side effect: I got hooked :D (in a good way). I find it very exciting not knowing the movie that is going to be shown. This is awesome: You buy the ticket, grab some snacks, take your seat, and just go with the flow and enjoy the ride! I would like to thank my Austrian friend who presented me this place.

As an Auslaenderin, I can't say that I enjoyed the 30 minutes of ads and such prior to the start of…read morethe film, but I'd imagine that it's standard fare as no one seemed too put out by them. Our seatmates chatted their way throughout, so I guess that's how that's handled! We loaded up on Beck's (they only seemed to carry 'big brand' brews) and rather un-warm sweet popcorn and hung out at a table in the fairly cool-looking bar/concession area before being allowed to enter the theater close to start time. The theater itself is lovely-looking with red, plush seats, and, interestingly, beverage carriers not at the end of seat arms, but rather a bit up off the ground in front of you. We sat and drank and looked toward the thick, deep-red curtain in front of us. I kept expecting an organist to pop up from the center of the stage and play us into the start of the show. If one is going to catch a (German language) flick in Munich, then one would do well to do so here. This place is a well-preserved gem from another era.
