The good thing about this movie theater is that they also show quite a few movies with original…read moresound, i.e. not the dubbed German version. Definitely a plus for English speaking natives, and film enthusiasts. The prices are what you would expect from a large city theater these days. Slightly steep, but still affordable. On 3D movies it gets a bit on the ridiculous side though. The seats are very comfortable and I've usually found it to be quite tidy. I never noticed anything that bothers me about screen and sound in the cinemas. Apart from occasionally being a bit to loud. But maybe that's just me.

Awesome. Watching a movie in this location is one of the must-do experiences in Essen.read more

When I first saw a movie here half way through it stopped and I thought that was how they were ending the movie. I was outraged!! Then I found out it was an intermission since it was a long movie... odd.. in the US we just sit through the 3 hours lol they also have one heck of a snack bar option with tea and coffee in tea cups and stuff that you could bring into the theaters and there are little tables at your seats. So snazzy! Also you can reserve your seat online so you can guarantee a spot. American theaters need to step it up!

I came here because they offer €6 movies every Tuesday (as far as I can tell, it's for any movie…read moreincluding 3D movies) and the VIP seats cost €8.20 (they certainly look fancier). The regular seats are decent, can't complain. The 3D glasses are still €1.50 each, but it's optional if you already have your own. I love that they don't upcharge for mandatory glasses. If you're used to American movie theaters, I highly recommend looking at the concession stand menu beforehand. The options for what you can purchase is mind blowing. Around the middle of the movie there was a break in which you could stretch your legs, use the bathroom and resupply on snacks. Our movie was two hours so I definitely appreciated the intermission. Our movie had after-credits and the movie attendant was the one that came in and told everyone. I honestly would have never guessed, since I'm only used to after-credits in Marvel movies. They even dimmed the lights for the after-credit scene! All in all, worth every buck!
