It still has a "crying" room for babies with carers, a gallery upstairs and a downstairs easily accessed for those who have trouble with stairs, or heights. The staff are friendly and there are the usual choc tops and lollies available, as well as brewed coffee. They also hire out the venue for fundraisers, and the Royal Flying Doctors et al fit beatifully into the atmosphere with their crusts-cut-off curried egg sandwiches and sparkling wine. The best place to sit? Front and centre upstairs. You get a little shelf to put your sustinance and no one to block your view. But don't take my seat!

Staff are generally cheerful and the cinema seats are so comfy. Don't even get my started about Gold Class though cause that is another (five star) review. For those not in the know, Gold Class is one of the cinema types that Event Cinemas offer and it is beyond amazing. Event Cinemas really have a wide range of cinema experiences. Besides just the ordinary cinema experience, they also have a stadium like cinema configuration called Vmax which in my opinion is worth splurging the extra $4-5 for to get the leather seats, extra legroom and cup holders. I went to see Ted in vmax but even better was Fast and the Furious Five. Tickets are reasonably priced and the queue generally isn't that bad. If there is one gripe I have about this place, it is the snack bar. Yes, they have a great range, popcorn, chocolates, soft drinks, lollies, but at $6 for a small bag of M&M's, the pricing is outrageous. Even the small popcorn has a premium of $6.50. And they don't particularly like it if you bring your own food in either - they have sort of eased this a bit though. To summarize, when you go up the escalator to Event Cinemas Marion, you are very literally going up a stairway to cinema heaven. You shall love what Event has to offer. I know I do, I keep going back for my movie fix.

Both stainless steel pots leaked boiling water down the side of them as you poured which ran off the table and down onto my leg. I was glad I had jeans on or else I would have been badly burnt. I emailed Event Cinema's, they replied over a month and a half later and the only response they had was "we are sorry this happened to you, we have not had anyone complain about the tea pots before." These cinemas are very poorly managed, and they don't take their customers seriously. I emailed them as I didn't want anyone else to be burnt the same way!

Having said that, the Cinema itself is our local and a favourite in that it doesn't get too crowded (unless it's a bumper day in the year like Boxing Day). The seats are always clean and the crowd is usually respectful of other patrons in the cinema. There is always a mix of ages in the crowds at Mitcham, not too youthful but not too senile either, and a few (like me!) in the middle. The service is always good; the bathrooms, I have always found to be clean and serviced, and the cinemas themselves are well-fitted with ample audio and good-sized screens. There is plenty of carparking in the outdoor carpark at the downstairs entrance and also underground, and access is easy too. There is a restaurant in the cinema, with a few different foods on offer, but I have only eaten in there once - we shared a plate of nachos and had a beer each. Not too bad, but I think Nachos are pretty hard to get wrong! Having had so many fond memories of watching movies here at Mitcham, I was going to give it 4 but I've decided it is deserving of 5 because I can't recall any time when I have been off-put by anything due to the cause of the cinema, and I know I'll be back plenty of times in the years ahead because it's always fun! TL;DR Mitcham Cinemas IS actually heaps good.

Considering it didn't exist until the brand new shopping centre rose from the ashes of its past life, this Wallis chain has a welcoming tone for not only the local community but anyone who comes for a visit. The foyer has a massive circular rain drop chandelier and comfy lounges strategically placed, movie posters as you'd have guessed, wall mounted TVs previewing the latest movies on offer, a candy bar and popcorn machine - an absolute must for any movie theatre, electronic movie timetable board and more.There are seven cinemas within the complex which are tended to by the efficient staff before the next movie entry commences. The seats in the cinema are comfortable and no heads get in the way of your viewing pleasure. Prices are as per any other cinema unless you have discount vouchers or tickets which can be purchased at any Wallis cinema to save you money. Look out for their special events online diary for up and coming themes and dates held. They also have birthday party packages another good idea during school holidays or whenever. The cinemas' Boulevard Lounge is available for a snack or drink before or after a movie otherwise take a walk through the Mitcham Shopping Centre itself. Unless the movie I want to see is not screening, I don't bother travelling anywhere else, it's great!

For that alone, I will endeavour to come here more regularly to catch the latest flicks. Chairs are very comfortable, armchair style. There are 8 cinemas with wall to wall screens featuring high-definition and very clear digital sound. They offer discount for groups of 20 and above. Purchasing can be made online using their user-friendly interface. The downside is they do charge you a small fee of $1.50 for this service. In summary, I definitely think Reading is one of the most competitive cinemas around.

Wallis Cinemas Noarlunga is a 5 cinema complex situated near Colonnades Shopping Center. The centre…read moreitself is quite large and is well decorated from the outside. Inside, you have a small snack bar, a small arcade and a nice waiting area. The complex is spacious and there is generally enough room to easily move around. The pricing of items at the snack bar is on par with the Event Cinemas complex at Marion with a regular popcorn setting you back $6.50. Staff at the snack bar are generally attentive and are friendly. When I went to see a movie, the cinema doors were open around 10 minutes beforehand to get a seat. Unlike other cinemas, the seating is not allocated and you can choose when you get inside, which I guess has its positives and its negatives. I found a seat around 3 rows from the front, which was about right. The cinema capacity is significantly less than that of Event Cinemas mind you, so three rows back was actually not that close to the screen. The seats were very much like Event Cinemas at Marion. They were very comfortable and spacious. Legroom was also more than sufficient, which was quite pleasing actually and the screen was of good size. It was a tad cold in the cinema though, but that appears to always be the case with every cinema I have been to, as they always seem to have the air conditioning cranked just a tad too high. Whilst waiting for the movie, they played music, which was a nice touch. When the screen lit up with the initial advertisements, the music cut off part way through the opening Wallis Cinema ad sequence, leaving a weird pop noise followed by the audio of the advertisement coming in half way through the ad. I found it quite weird that they were not synchronised, but nonetheless, this was no real issue. For the movie I went to see, a somewhat popular comedy, they played around 25 minutes of pre-screen ads. Now usually, I am very tolerant of this, because I love seeing new movie trailers and at Event Cinema they generally show 5 or so. During the 25 minute advertisement period, there were only 2 movie trailers. Not only was it longer than the 15 minute advertisement block at Event Cinemas but it was a lot of advertisements for companies and businesses. I understand that Wallis Cinemas need to make money and that playing movie trailers doesn't rake in the dough like tv commercials and other business ads would, but there were just so many ads that you see on TV being presented on the big screen. I have never had to look at my watch during a pre-screen advertising session before until I went here. The rest of the movie experience was good. The surround sound, albeit not as good as the one at Event Cinemas, was still very pleasant and at a volume that didn't burst the eardrums, and the lighting was controlled well. It's just the huge amount of ads, and half of the ads weren't even optimised for cinema, they were just the same you see on TV (unless you are watching a show back on a DVR and are forward feeding through the ads). Even if the pre-screen advertising had to be 25 minutes, I would have loved to have seen maybe a couple more movie trailers.
