"A bottle of wine was removed from my bag and i was told I couldn't have it back after watching the film, plus being frisked without being asked. Not good."
"I went to go watch the new Sonic the hedgehog movie and one of the staff stole my war veteran medal and broke my left rib by pushing me down the stairs."
"Went to watch endgame with my 4-year-old son to be told he's being too loud at the battle scene and to be quiet."
"Never ever again will I go to this place. Members of staff walking in front of the screen to get to the other side."
"Managed to sit where we felt comfortable, seats not that big, small and creaky after an hour and a half was ready to leave as become awkward to sit in. Not really service with a smile either."

Facilities and Comfort
Pros:
"A pleasant venue to enjoy films."

Cons:
"However, I think Screen 2 is a real letdown. A bad view from in the center and your neck hurts when you are looking up."
"The seats are hard and uncomfortable and very close together so elbows touching."
"We love it here the only reason I haven't gave it 5 stars is Elvis was showing upstairs and there was a lot if elderly people who struggled to get up 3 flights of stairs."
"The seats are really old, but the screen and sound is top-spec."
"Screen 2 is very uncomfortable with no cupholders having you put your drinks and food on the floor until you need them next."
"The seats were really uncomfortable and not suitable for me at all."
"Just be aware it suffers from the same problems you might expect from an old establishment; very low rake on the floor (in screen 2 at least) so the view of screen can easily be blocked and very uncomfortable seats."

"Chairs for the smaller children are extremely difficult for them to sit."
"The seating upstairs can feel a little dangerous especially with young children in the dimmed lightings."
"Yes, this cinema is a great place to watch movies and is a great experience but there is the problem of phones."
