Odeon Cinemas - Lovely new interior

I had a good experience here when I saw a movie last night. Granted the tickets are cheaper on…read moreMondays (£7) but I felt like it was a good experience for the price. Definitely recommend signing up for an account with them so you can take advantage of the discounted tickets. I got a glass of wine for the movie and the girl working the bar was really sweet and commented on my accent and asked where I was from. There are cheap wine options but most of the concessions are overpriced as you would expect from a theatre. I found the seats (recliners) to be quite comfortable and there was much more room in front of them than I had come to expect from theatres in the US. Not sure if that's standard in the UK but it was a pleasant surprise. The screen was a tad on the small side but the audio/visual elements were all great. The neighbourhood isn't the nicest but didn't feel unsafe, just a little less posh than other parts of London. Would return, although there are other Odeon locations that are closer to me that I'd be more inclined to visit.

A solid 3-stars for this Odeon. The theatre itself is not in the most prestigious neighbourhood,…read morebut at least you don't have to pay Leicester Square prices here! I suggest that if you're going to watch one of the blockbusters here, to double-check in advance at which of the 8 rooms they're showing that film at a given time. Because, what happens is that when, for example, a new Harry Potter movie comes out, they show it at 10 different times during the day, but maybe only 3 of these showings are taking place at the cinema with the big screen (auditorium # 1 & #2). After the movie, I suggest you have dinner at this fantastic Indian restaurant, called Indian Ocean, not far away from the cinema. (See my review of the Indian Ocean for what to order!) At this point I would like to bitch about the Odeon group in general: I find it outrageous that they don't have a toll-free number that I can call when I need information for an upcoming showtime. But even worse, not only do I have to pay for this phone call, but I also have to listen to a computerised message for a few minutes (explaining to me that I should check out their website!!!) before I can actually speak to a person! I find this to be gruesome customer service...bless American companies for being so generous with their 1-800 numbers!

I don't think I can return to your average, run-of-the-mill cinema after Everyman. This is cinema…read morefor grown-ups! You can watch a film without a child kicking the back of your chair or throwing popcorn about the place and you can get drinks and bar snacks served right to your seat. Brilliant! A great place to come with a date as the double-seats mean you can snuggle up to that special someone. Next time I want the even more luxurious seats at the back which looked more comfy than the average ones and I believe may even have had foot rests. A full bar and decent selection of sweet and savoury snacks. I love a glass of wine with my film so this place gets a huge thumbs up from me on that alone. It is expensive, but no more expensive than seeing a film at a cinema in Leicester Square and billion times better! They need more of these cinemas over London!

The only problem I have with this plush theatre is that once you go "Belsize Everyman" you really…read morefind film watching anywhere else impossible. Cheap - it ain't £12-14 (dependant on reclining or not) and let's be frank, a bowl of chilli stuffed olives and rosemary mixed nuts or one sweet craving of white chocolate covered bananas with cocktails can set you back enough to skip dinner entirely, but I have seen some thoroughly exhausting movies here ( Brad Bitt becomes infant - cough cough), and leather reclining seats with mojitos made that experience something almost enjoyable. If I had one critique, it would be fairly obvious one as a former resident - more selection/invention/events please. Any possibility of an 'event' generally requires Baker or Hampstead here - but for an experience beyond movie watching that feels akin to first class lounging try it.

Now I would highly recommend this cinema if you want an intimate and very comfortable cinema…read moreexperience without the annoying people talking all the way through and even better... A very representable price tag. I think we even attended on a crazy Monday and got half price tickets. They have a bar in the waiting area where you can buy drinks of all sorts and sweets or ice cream (no popcorn if I remember rightly) which is prob a good and less busy place to pop in for a cuppa anytime anyway. The cinema itself usually has most higher rated films showing on release and extremely generous seating throughout. Screen are on the smaller side but overall that doesn't detract from the experience unless you want an IMAX experience or something totally in your face. Barbican is definitely worth a trip for those wanting to avoid mainstream cinemas. Xyz

My wife and I recently visited to see Life of Pi for a Sunday matinee. The tickets were £15…read moreapiece, no stadium seating, and I've seen more impressive movie screens in the tube. Oddly, when we bought our tickets, he showed us a tattered seating chart and asked us which seats we'd like, but had to look up our request in the computer to see if they're already taken, which led to the following conversation: "how about those?" "sorry I'm afraid those are taken. "how about those?" "sorry I'm afraid..." etc. The one twist was the classy food - scones, quiche, and an extensive wine list - which we weren't expecting. While I'm a fan beer / wine in movies, we actually just wanted some popcorn and sweets...

I hate going to the cinema: its too expensive and I'd rather be in my house where I can talk over…read morethe film, drink tea and smoke cigarettes, but I'll make an exception for the Rio. You can drink tea here, eat homemade cakes and generally remember what the cinema experience used to be like before chain theatres took over the world. They show independent movies, take part in international film festivals, hold screenings specifically for children and parents and clearly try to reflect the diversity of cultures and religions in East London through the films that they programme. The Rio cinema is also a registered charity and offers an annual membership for £20. There is only one screen there, which adds to the snug feel, and the cinema has been refurbished in keeping with its original Art Deco design. It's perfect for a lone outing or a cosy date and I plan to go this week to see new German film, The Baader Meinhof Complex.

Independent cinemas are scattered across London and this is the Jewel of the East - unfortunately…read moreexpensive popcorn and a predictable screenings make this spot a little disappointing. I saw Control here a year or so ago and liked the vibe the place has. f you go to the big cinemas now people just sit there like Zombies! Here you get applause, laughter and cheering to films - great for getting you involved in the movie. This place is definitely worth popping in if there is a movie showing you want to see. Drinks and popcorn will cost your granny but tickets are reasonable!
