    The film theatre is affiliated with the university (many lectures for the film/media courses are…read moreactually held there during the day) and is on the university site, which makes it relatively easy to find when asking directions or travelling from Hanley etc. The theatre is staffed by students and has a small makeshift bar in the university foyer providing refreshments. The theatre itself is nothing to write home about exactly (my mind probably clouded by being a student there and spending hours in the bloody place once upon a time ago), but when you go to a cinema, it's much the same thing you expect - some seats and a big screen. The choice of films here is where it stands out. It screens independent and foreign films, which makes it unique in Stoke. Rarely will a film play at the film theatre that has ever played theatrically anywhere else in Stoke. However, the films are often screened several months after their general release, and sometimes even after they're already out on DVD.

    Located at the front of Staffordshire University, this cinema is Stoke-on-Trent's only venue which…read moreshows independent, art-house and foreign films. Only one screen though and the seating area is basic, not a lot of leg room. Unfortunately with it being used for lectures most of the time, film screenings are rare with only a handful a week and only a couple of films are screened every couple of weeks - choice is limited and can be a bit slow getting new releases on the screen but the place should be celebrated for continuing to bring the alternative film scene to Stoke as without we wouldn't get to see art-house, foreign and indie films on the big screen locally. The volunteers are helpful and friendly and the pre-screening bar is very cheap.

    It is what it is, a dated cinema well past its best with better but more expensive options nearby,…read moreultimately, so long as you take your own snacks with you (and there are plenty of options a couple of minutes drive or a 5/10 min walk away (Home Bargains, B&M, Tesco or Morrisons off the top of my head) then its a solid place to go after school with the kids if twinned with lunch at McDonalds or Pizza Hut, etc and maybe half an hour in the arcade at the bowling alley nextdoor, or in my case if you just want to pass a few hours in the afternoon when not working and you dont want to spend a fortune doing it. Apart from peak times, its £5 a film across the board, which is unbeatable value really. If you want to dress up and make an evening out or go on a date, the Cineworld in Hanley or Vue in Newcastle are better options but will cost you more. It has its place.

    The Odeon was the main cinema for me when I lived in Stoke, and I was never happy with it. The…read morestaff were always so disinterested and unhelpful, and I can understand why, in a way - as to care about the job there would've been a mountain of stress. The cinema is situated pretty much next to a bowling alley complex, and both of them have arcade games and whatnot. Naturally, this attracts a bunch of idiot teenagers. And when they're maxed out on games, their favourite activity seems to be going into the cinema screens in huge groups and disrupting films for paying customers. I had several film experiences ruined at the Odeon because of this. I'm sure I was not the only one, and the strain of it likely just caused the staff to stop caring. But either way, it's not a pleasant viewing experience for a customer. Buying food and drink there is also ill-advised as it's the usual cinema rip-off. Festival Park does have several restaurants though, so I recommend going to one of those before or after your film. And good luck getting through the film without the worst of Stoke's teens making a nuisane of themselves.

    It seems rather strange that a city like Chester doesn't have a decent cinema closer than this,…read moreanother cloned multiplex in an out-of-town retail park in the middle of nowhere, but there it is. Actually I say the middle of nowhere, that's just what it felt like during the 20 minute drive in the dark - it's actually on the edge of Ellesmere Port, but that's hardly a hub of civilisation in itself. It's the typical retail park scenario, you know the kind of thing - windy roads, lots of roundabouts, a steady breeze sweeping the tumbleweeds past as you're dazzled by the neon glow from Burger King, Nandos, Pizza Hut, Frankie & Benny's, Bella Italia, and the other usual suspects. The cinema experience itself was just like any other Vue, I just hate this universal trend towards corporate blandness that insists on building these huge conglomerate retail parks in the middle of nowhere.

    This is really the only choice of cinema in the Chester area if you are looing for decent screen…read moresize and a good amount of leg room. It's annoying to get to without a car as the buses can be quite bad and sometimes don't show up at all. If you can get there then it is a far better venue than any cinema nearer to the city. With a large number of screens there are a lot of films on offer at any one time. In fact last time we visited, my wife ended up watching a different film to me, and this worked out great with only a 20 minute wait for one of us. The food is obviously a massive rip off, but that is true of every cinema these days. Luckily the rest of the retail park offers a range of restaurants to suit al tastes so it is worth eating before or after the film rather than spending a similar amount on a drink and some ice cream.

    A very large cinema in Manchester city centre, this cinema was previously operated by ODEON, until…read morethey were forced to sell the cinema to rivals, VUE, who now operate the cinema. This location is HUGE - 23 screens, 4,723 seats, and one of the largest IMAX screens in Europe, The cinema is over multiple floors, and the layout can be a little confusing, the staff seem friendly enough and on guard to help. If you require lift access, you will require a staff member to help you with this as they are NOT customer operated. Escalators are available without the help of a staff member. There are lots of screens to pick up and purchase tickets, and there is normally at least one person on the manned desks if you want to use as little technology as possible to get your tickets. There are often cheaper screenings, costing around £4.99 per person, so it is reasonable and affordable, combined with the many offers available from many third-party companies including banks and insurance companies, who offer discounted cinema tickets. Snacks are expensive, but what cinema doesn't charge an arm and a leg for the slightest bite to eat? Not much has changed since the ODEON days, the main difference is the branding around the cinema, some parts could do with a refurb but still a nice, large cinema in a great central city location. 4*

    Good central location and plenty of screens. Rarely have to queue for tickets and these usual range…read moreof snacks available. The individual screens are pretty big and there seems to be a lot of legroom in the standard seating.
