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.

Pro: - central location (but the neighborhood is a bit, well, yeah) - you can call the on the phone to reserve tickets and actually speak with a human, not a machine (only certain times of day though) - seats are comfortable enough and rows slightly ascending - not so crowded even when top movies a running on a friday night Contra: - free choice of seats, you cannot reserve a particular seat

A modern movie palace in the centre of munich…read more Pro: - many movie theatres/movies shown - central location - modern, good audio/image quality, 3D movies Neutral: - You can reserve online with a choice of seat, but this didn't work for me and turned out to be a pain, the transaction did not finish and I did not know wether I now had booked the tickets or not - only a request to the support could answer that question. Seems buggy to me at best (don't try it with a non-standard browser). it also asks for too much data and tries to make you a "member". The phone reservation system is even worse: totally unusable (no humans but a machine of course) Contra: - very crowded - expensive - service is so-so - mostly popular titles shown, not many indie movies, not many foreign languages - the crowd can be a bit proletarian, people talk or dont switch off their mobiles (which hurts my movie experience) - lots of ads shown before the movie

The only negative point is that they could offer more movies in english than they do now. With so many screens, it wouldn't hurt to have one or two exclusively dedicated to original language movies.

A charm tucked from the busy street in Schwabing, Monopol is worth the trek to catch a movie. From…read morethe outside, one wouldn't believe there was a cinema (simply a few "Monopol" signs and stairs to go down to the basement). In the basement, we then saw a small lobby with 3 theaters. We went to Monopol on a Saturday evening to watch a sold-out movie without reservations. It seemed unlikely that we would be able to get tickets, but Monopol worked its magic. We did arrive at Monopol 40 minutes before showtime, and the staff put us on a waitlist. We were the first names on the list, so we felt that our chances were good. During the wait, we could stand or sit and eat/drink at the small lobby, serving as waiting area/bar. The concession bar is basic (only packaged snacks, no popcorn/nachos--I think they take pride in that.) but offers a good selection of beverages (Hacker Pschorr beers, Fritz Limos, wines, etc). We did manage to get our tickets, BUT!! we had to "fight" for them. After waiting for 35 minutes, the lobby got packed, and we went to the counter just to check on the status of the waitlist. We then realized that someone else had taken over the counter and were selling tickets to anyone who came up to the counter and asked for tickets (also without reservations). What happened to the waitlist?? We had to quickly interject and explained that we waited more than 30 minutes on a waiting list. Then we got our tickets. Lesson learned: even if you are on a waiting list, check often with the staff to make sure they are aware of the list. Tickets are reasonably priced (8.50 EUR for regular entry) but are without seat reservations (first come, first served). The theater is small (their largest cinema holds only about 100 people). I was impressed that for a sold-out film, the staff seemed to fit a lot of additional people in these so-called "Notsitze" (foldaway chairs). The film started right away without advertisements and trailers. Good screen, good sound, comfortable seats. It was a pleasant viewing experience. Pros: Cheap(er), no advertisements, comfortable seat Cons: Basic concessions, slightly disorganized staff
