If you're serving someone, please say hello.. smile! Apart from that all was good. Ticket prices - good screening- good candy bar selection- good (a tad expensive but you only paid 5.50 for your ticket! So all good) My favourite part is the fact that you can buy movie posters for as little as $5. Good place to see a quick flick.

Does anyone remember a time when Hoyts Cinema Sunnybank was still an AMC? I hate to sound like an…read moreold person but things were better in the good old days. Movie tickets were so much cheaper and they showed a variety of films, not just the blockbusters. I remember when I use to go to the movies at Sunnybank every week. It wasn't the flashiest cinema with their small screens and worn seats but it was a bargain price. Since it re-branded as a Hoyts, the ticket prices have gone up though they haven't done much about refurbishment and I'm still waiting for that larger selection of movie releases they promised.

I know that sounds petty when you look at the over all experience but Come on! it was filthy! Pee on the Seats, Toilet paper scattered on the floor, Turds still left in the the bowl and the most disgusting stall looked like it was TWILIGHT Themed.. Think about it ladies... GROSS! I mentioned it to a senior staff member and her response was she'll let management know. On a positive note The Avengers Movie was Great!

They have one big screen and several pedestrian ones, but they show most of the major movies and are right in the middle of all the goings on at Southbank. Fair warning: you'll see ~25 minutes of ads before your show starts, including promos for surrounding business as well as movie trailers.

Being located in South Bank, it is so accessible and placed right in the middle of shops, restaurants, etc. The ticket prices are very reasonable at $8.50 and $6.50 if you're a student. For a late movie on a weeknight, the cinema was super crowded. My film was being shown in cinema 5 which is the former IMAX screen so the screen is gigantic and theatre is huge. I really loved it because my film was action packed! I didn't enjoy the 30 minutes of commercials before the movie though. I understand a few but the worst commercial was even repeated twice!! Also, remember to bring cash. If you're wanting to watch a movie on a budget, the Cineplex is the place for you.

Portside Cinema is unfortunately in serious need of a revamp. Some of the seats are broken,…read morelopsided and most are stained, and ready for the tip, sometimes with black plastic-covered armrests that make the cinema feel decades old. In several areas the carpet is worn right through to the concrete, which gives the whole place a neglected feel. Cinema 5's screen is hopelessly underwhelming for this day and age, and the air conditioning barely seems to function. As some online reviewers have also pointed out, the experience just doesn't match modern standards or live up to the falsely advertised promise of a luxury experience. It's in a great location, with friendly staff, but it's clearly time for major refurbishment and maybe new owners/management at the same time.

The chairs are very comfy as everyone has mentioned. Even though the theatre size is much smaller than your typical ones like in South Bank, I really liked it. If you live in the area, purchasing a membership would be worth it. The movies being shown were a mix of unique and blockbuster. I liked the waiting area where I could pick up several brochures or magazines while I wait on my friend to arrive. They were kind when I went to pick up my tickets and had no problems there. They had plenty of candy, popcorn, and ice cream behind the counter. You can also purchase adult beverages as well! I had a great experience and think this would be a great place to take a date! If your date isn't too familiar with Brisbane, showing off this part of town and taking a walk along the river before the film would be so sweet.

Here is the trick. Instead of paying $20 per ticket, I pre-purchase the movie tickets for $10 from the RACQ shop inside Garden City Shopping Centre. What's the catch? There isn't one really - none that I've found anyway. There are limitations of course. This is not an online offer so you will need to physically go into the shop to purchase the tickets. The tickets are not valid for Saturday nights. You need to be a RACQ member. For a complete list of terms and conditions, visit http://www.racq.com.au/travel/discount_tickets/movie_tickets While there are no signs of the $10 tickets ending soon, best pop down to RACQ and Birch Carroll and Coyle while you can to take advantage of this sweet deal.

The recent refurb has left things looking trendy and stylish with a brand new Vmax and Gold Class cinema, however that's about as far as the highlights go. The customer service at this cinema is absolutely shocking. At my last visit we stood at the service desk for over 10 minutes waiting to buy tickets (when there was no line), meanwhile a female worker in the candy bar just stared at us as she continue to package up the popcorn. When we did get served, the ticket box staff member treated us as though we were an immense burden and not a customer at all who contributes to their wages. We were then told there were no longer any discount tickets (i.e. now $18 for a regular film) and when we did enter our VMax theatre, the chairs were filthy and the side tables were even worse. It was clear the staff had just done a quick vaccum of the floor and that was it. The chair next to me in fact still had popcorn poured all over it. This chair was actually located on an aisle at the back of the cinema (you enter from the back) so it was clear they had only done a very lazy clean. In general the Vmax or regular cinema experience isn't all that flash if you have been down to Cineplex at Victoria Point - who offer the EXACT same experience for around $6 - $8. This Carindale cinema lacks adequate customer service, their prices are ridiculous, the cleanliness is below parr and the experience is nothing out of the average. I would only go here for Gold Class (which is actually very good here). If you are not seeing something in Gold Class I would suggest visiting Bulimba, Hawthorne or Victoria Point Cineplex's - where there is value for money, the staff are far more pleasant and the cinemas are actually cleaned.
