Reviews

‘Deep diving, broad ranging and impeccably crafted, this film about the late Stevie Hyper D, an MC from west London whose music and performances in the 1990s helped to create and shape drum’n’bass, is simply terrific.’ 
★★★★
Leslie Felperin, The Guardian

We open the cinema and box office 30 minutes before the scheduled start time of each film, and the Box Office then closes 10 minutes after the film starts. We only show a few adverts – less than most cinemas – and we only play a couple of trailers, so please don’t be late as the film itself starts very close to the advertised time!
