Been going to this cinema for ages .. at least over 10 years lol!!…read moreHave seen this place at its "Worst" which wasn't that bad but alot of people must of only experienced gold class in their lifetime possibly and now today at it's extensive upgrade which is still bad for some.. oh well can't please them all ;) Premium tickets were only $13.. the cinema sests are vinyl and full recliners accompanied with a small table and cup holder.. feeling pretty special haha ;)!! Cinema food is the same you'd get anywhere else naturally, I'm a big choc top kind of guy like 2 - 3 at a time lol.. dont go to the movies everyday luckily ;)!! but suprisingly you couldn't buy a coffee at the cinema.. seems pretty standard these days haha, they had a great cafe just outside the entrance for my caffeine fix :). The cinema location is great, if your there during the daytime you could spend a whole day there with Costco and Anaconda down the road and then the rest of adventure and other shops in the cinema complex and for the night time you have the 24 hour maccers and Krispys on the other side of the road for those tasty treats before or after yohr movie :) This place will always be a favorite cause of the location, the comfortablefactor and cheap movie tickets :)!!

This was the most filthy, mismanaged, shit hole of a cinema I've ever been to…read more We went at midday on a Sunday. There were three people behind the counter and about 20-30 people waiting in queue. First red flag was that there weren't enough employees, or employees doing their job so shitty that they managed to create a queue of people on a Sunday. They were out of large popcorn. Let me repeat: THEY WERE "OUT" OF LARGE POPCORN. HOW. DAMN well order the larger cardboard popcorn boxes. Maybe learn how to run a business? Everyone tells me that a theatres major source of income is the food and drink yet they can't even offer what people want? Larger flipping boxes?!? They were also out of choc tops??? I'm only a little mad. The lobby was literally falling apart. The carpet was matted, the tiled floors were sticky as if they hadn't been cleaned in eons. The theater had also not been cleaned. There was trash still in the seats and we had to claw out way to sit down. SURE - the tickets are cheap but in no way is it a worthwhile experience.

The recent refurbishment has made this my favorite local cinema. Good, comfy seats, and nice (if small) screening rooms. And, as an added bonus, the Dendy tends to attract more of a movie-lover crowd, so I don't end up with idiots sitting next to me texting and/or talking throughout the film.

We arrived at Dendy in Newtown a little bit late and bought our tickets from the Candy Bar. We…read moretiptoed through the doors and took a seat up the back in one of their smaller cinemas. The film was 'Blessed' and like all Australian dramas it made you want to slit your wrists. So how do you review a cinema when the mood of the piece that you see there is so heavy that it surely will effect your opinions. The film was depressing, but the cinema was not. If you see a comedy, you're bound to leave with an upbeat attitude thinking, wow this cinema, absolutely hilarious! So let us look at the markable qualities within and try and ignore the child burning, man-slaughtering, sexually abused themes of the film we saw there. The cinema is quite small compared to its blockbuster equivalents. The cinema we watched 'Blessed' in, couldn't have sat more than one hundred and twenty people, this is a plus in my books. Less people, less chance of a phone call, a crumpled chip packet or an older person who assumes the cinema is a pantomime. "Look out behind you Batman! It's Heath!" The tickets are relatively cheap as they do not do 3D and thus do not feel the need to rob you for something so unnecessary as the third dimension. The range of films they get in is always interesting; foreign films, small Australian films and even blockbuster films from time to time. The main issue with Dendy in Newtown is the parking, but that goes for the whole of Newtown. Trains and busses are available or it's a pleasant stroll through a cafe and boutique rich suburb should you decide on walking. Let's be honest, a fresh aired walk is just what you'll need to clear your head of suicidal thoughts after experiencing the latest Australian familial drama.

I watched a movie today at $18.50, i still go to this cinema from time to time cause it is a independently owned cinema and it's a change from the Hurstville Westfeilds which has also recently been renovated .

If you have booked your tickets online and plan to Jump the Q, enter from the left and proceed directly to the counter. Most other Cinemas, have better signage about the quick ticket collection when compared to Burwood. If you plan on watching a movie after 6pm, it is better to park in the lower parking lot at the cinema level as the mall closes on most days, and you could get trapped getting to your car on another level.

Event Cinema Macquarie has a lot to compete with for entertainment considering that the shopping…read morecentre has gotten bowling and laser just across from it and an ice rink down stairs but the cinema has a good offering as well for those shoppers tired after fighting for those last jeans in their size. The cinema has its own cafe located just before the screening hall. The cafe offers a range of beverages from tea and coffee to alcohol. So it makes it convenient to grab a quick bite before entering. The seating for the cafe has a great view onto the ice rink too so that's pretty cool. This cinema offers Gold Class too for those who want to splurge out and get those sexy reclining sofas that go all the way back. The cinema has about 8 screens so you have plenty of movies to choose from throughout the day. The cinema doesn't seem to have any V-max screens which is very surprising considering it's almost a must now to watch the latest blockbuster with surround sound and a huge screen. Overall though nice cinema and perfectly located surrounded by all the food choices that the shopping complex has.

It's just one big square loop of a corridor with cinemas coming off of it, so inevitably you'll end up with zombies running at you from both sides, or stuck cowering in a corner of a dark cinema as you await your fate. That aside, the Event at Macquarie is pretty ok if you just want to go watch a movie. There's a bar/cafe thing in addition to the usual candy bar, though you have an abundance of cafes and supermarkets to choose from if you want to sneak some cheaper and better coffee and snacks in. The screens are...big (as usual??) and the chairs usually clean enough, though try to avoid losing things down the gap between the seat and the arm rest. It's...just...don't.
