I.LOVE.EVERYMAN…read more Now that there are two Everyman Cinemas in the area, I'm probably going to be much more of a film buff than I ever would be. Comfy couches, milkshakes to order and wait WHAT!? They sell a Washington wine?! F* Vue, I'm coming here the rest of my days. The Esher outfit has 4 screens, with Screen 1 being the biggest. It's a double decker with great sound and nice two person couch 'booths'. You can also order hot food in and bring alcohol into the cinema screen. Adults only, no crying babies and giggly teens? Heck. Yes. Sadly two things knock this place down to a 4* vs a 5*. Firstly, staff service here is very hit and miss. Very young staff meaning texting / giggling amongst each other can sometimes come above a waiting customer. Additionally, the screens are quite different in terms of comfy rating. Screen 2 has little footrests that mimic say a sofa/coffee table at home, whilst Screen 1 doesn't, which does make it lose just that little bit of comfiness for a long movie. Also, weirdly enough, end booths in Screen 1 don't have a table or a perch, meaning the person closest to the aisle has got to either put their drink on the ground (watch the spillage!) or hold it the entire time... Not ideal. However, it's still a much better (read: Expensive) experience, but I'd take this any day over a Vue (or the Vue in Staines) as it's closer, more intimate and caters to insolently intolerant people like me.

IT'S A BIG HIT!!!!…read more If you want a night out this is a fab place to see a film. It feels like a treat and an enjoyable experience. Four screens, each screen room different but all have comfy couches, chairs and tables, the sound is excellent too. The cinema was spotless and a notch up in decoration, comfort, style and class from your usual Vue and Odeon cinemas. I found the staff helpful. As it was not busy I did not have to wait to be served. We ordered the vanilla and peanut butter milkshake, v nice. As the film started our pizzas were delivered to us. We ordered the margherita and special pizza. The chap taking the order wasn't sure of exactly what the special pizza was said it was ham and capers. I quizzed him a little more and he said Palma ham. Got to say although not large in size they did taste delish and I would not hesitate to have them again. It felt weird eating watching the movie but a great weird, I could get use to this. I was so impressed with the whole experience I became a member as I will be going back to watch more films at this fab place. It is more expensive but it's worth it. Oh yes I will xoxo

That excites me because it is so old school and it's rather rare. In fact, i don't remember the last time i saw it. They show the blockbusters, but also have different film seasons. There is currently a French one on. Today i saw UP and it was great. The cinema was full of screaming, restless kids, but i managed to zone out and enjoy the Pixar goodness.

It's a shame that a film nominated for an academy award for it's Cinematography can be so easily butchered by a cinema chain who seemingly doesn't care about representing the artists work true to it's intentions. On top of the subpar projection, lights were left way too bright during the entire movie so it made it hard to concentrate on the film.

Ugh...that's the feeling I get whenever I venture near this place…read more... Service is soooo sloooooow especially as now you often have to buy your tickets from the food counters, so you have to wait ages while people decide what size bucket of coke they want... Once you're in the screens themselves things aren't too bad - sound and vision are generally of a good standard. The air-con is however overenthusiastic so if you're of a chilly disposition remember to take some warm clothes! The sign at the entrance of the ladies warns that "male and female cleaners service these facilities" but I have to conclude that neither had been near them for quite some time...at least four loos were out of order and most of the ones that weren't needed a darn good clean (I guess you have to point a large finger of blame at the manky people who don't know a) how to flush a toilet or b) that any more than about 20 sheets of loo paper is likely to lead to a serious blockage.... Added to the fact it's now damn expensive (£10.45 per adult to see the 3D Christmas Carol film) to go to the cinema I was reminded why I don't often bother these days. Far nicer to stay warm, have clean loos and cheap eats at home with a DVD!

The good news is that, as the theatre industry dies, you can get a good seat almost any day for…read morealmost any film. Since they're not that popular any more, they're not as roughly treated by the populace. And since theatres are trying to improve their image and retain customers, they tend to be nicer seats, better kept, and more comfortable. Of course the food is an utterly outrageous rip-off. And the advertisements before the film are so bad that they literally run for about 20 minutes. I routinely plan to be 15 minutes late. I still get a good seat and I skip most of the ads. And they want £10 for the pleasure of seeing it once. It's only £20 to own it on the day it comes out. Theatres are like living museums. A testament to a bygone era when your home TV or theatre system sucked and the theatre was an amazing place. You know what theatres don't have? A pause button. My TV does. Why does this matter? The trend in filmmaking is ever longer run-times. Blockbusters like Star Wars and Indiana Jones were 90 minutes. Today blockbusters are 120, or even 180 minutes. If you're selling me a 2 litre bottle of coke for £8.00, i'm probably going to need the loo in the next 3 hours. My friends can come to my house, we can eat our own food, we can pause the film to talk about something, we can pause the film for a bio break, we can rewind and hear that bit of dialog that we missed. Seriously, though. if you have a family of 4 you can rent a film in your own house and order out pizza for the same or less than the admission and parking costs. Add in buying even a modest amount of food at the theatre, and the theatre wastes more time (driving, sitting through ads), gives you less food, and makes you miss some of the film if you go to the toilet. And who are the big drivers for going to films? Kids: people who famously need the toilet a lot more often than grown-ups do. Anyways, that's enough of a rant. This theatre is like all the others: it's main attraction is you can see the film before it is released to DVD. Otherwise, it is overpriced and wastes lots of extra time.

Let's face it, I love everything that is A. outdoors B. Free C. encourages consuming adult…read morebeverages and eating. I was over the moon when the stars aligned to offer an event that included free outdoor cinema on a gorgeous night, and the film choice was Wes Anderson's Fantastic Mr. Fox. This event -- where in the film was projected from atop their signature narrowboat, across the canal and onto a screen -- was not their usual offering. It was a special event that included a chance to go on to the boat and see the actual puppets used in the film and speak to someone involved in the making of the film. The boat, a 12-seater work boat refurbished as part of a community/art project, usually gives waterways tours, screens documentaries and workshops (according to their web site, how you would host a workshop on a tiny boat I have no idea). A large (but not obnoxiously large) gathering of people -- some in foxy fancy dress -- settled into the grassy area, many bringing food, blankets and beverages, and all behaved -- no incessant talkers or wild children). The film and sound quality was excellent with no issues thoughout. I am happy to have participated in such a great event, and applaud the efforts of those involved to offer their community something that was fun and celebrated historic London features (the waterways) while also at the same time offering a cool movie that was filmed in that same area. The program only lasts until the end of the summer, and there are only a handful of events left. If you're intrigued by this unique community project, best get off your duff and check it out while you can.

Selfridges really does have EVERYTHING now, including a cinema. Being Selfridges, it's not just any…read morecinema, it is the Everyman, a cinema that makes you feel like a VIP. Noted for it's spacious couch seating, waiters to bring you the snacks you ordered, and a little table to keep it all on, it is a little more expensive than other cinemas, but you get your money's worth. I have been to other Everyman cinemas and enjoyed the VIP treatment, but in this instance, I found my seat very hard to get comfortable in. It wasn't too hard, but it was so high off the ground that it was impossible for me to get comfortable. It might work for someone 6ft tall but for me, it just wasn't working. I would recommend not sitting in the front, I think there might be better elsewhere in the room.

You can also purchase adult drinks at the bar to take into the studios.
