Smart, curious, and wonderfully mischievous, Matilda is no ordinary little girl. While her neglectful parents fail to recognise her extraordinary intelligence, she discovers friendship and encouragement at school from the kind Miss Honey. But the terrifying headmistress Miss Trunchbull makes life miserable for everyone around her. Filled with humour, imagination, and magical surprises, this beloved adaptation of Roald Dahl’s classic celebrates the power of standing up for what’s right.

Our beautiful art deco inspired auditorium can be found just off East Oxford's Cowley Road.We are open 7 days a week. 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!
