Absolutely disappointed with this cinema experience. The seats are extremely outdated, uncomfortable, and clearly haven’t been maintained in a long time. On top of that, the entire place had a filthy smell, which made it very unpleasant to sit through a movie. It’s honestly unacceptable to charge full ticket prices when the facilities are in such poor condition. Basic hygiene and upkeep should be the minimum standard. I won’t be returning unless there are major improvements.
Very outdated cinema with very uncomfortable seating. We are avid movie fans and go a few times a month and almost exclusively event cinemas. We were in Brisbane city and went to watch avatar in the Vmax theatre. Normally Vmax cinema are the best with comfortable seats and great sound. The Brisbane one is not at the same standard as most other event cinemas, but they still charge the same price
Great location, games arcade near by. Nice seats. Great service. However you watch 45min of ads and 1hr movie is what it feels like for $22 a ticket (x 3). If they had $10 tickets, they would have more people than 10 per sitting and I would of spend $50 at the candy bar. Due to the price of tickets we didn't spend any money at the candy bar. $66 vs $80. Good luck to the future of cinema's.
My local cinema, most staff are friendly and great. Just wish cleaning up around seats was done more frequently.. unfortunately others leave rubbish 🗑 for staff to clean and not always able to. Its one of the best in the area thou. Ive tried the others with attending events and it's why I always go here when taking myself.
First time attending this cinema. We purchased our tickets online which we found extremely easy to navigate. The cinema itself was clean and comfortable. (Heads up, the seats do not recline.) Event Cinema is in the old Myer centre. Now known as Uptown, in the Queen Street Mall, Brisbane. If you enter via Queen St Mall or Elizabeth Street, take lifts 8 & 9 or 10 & 11) and you will come straight out to it. The cinema has all your favourite snacks to enhance your experience. I, myself, couldn't resist the choc mint choctop ice cream. Very enjoyable afternoon.
