The GrinchPG

Directed by Ron Howard | USA | 2000 | 1h 45m | Starring Jim Carrey, Taylor Momsen, Jeffrey Tambor, Christine Baranski, Clint Howard

Inside a snowflake exists the magical land of Whoville, a place where all its citizens love to celebrate Christmas. Well, nearly all of them. Up in his mountaintop home, The Grinch plots a devious plan to ruin the festive period for the residents of Whoville. Based on Dr. Seuss’s 1957 children’s book, Jim Carrey gives his all (and then some) in this maximalist fever-dream which has become a sugar-rush family festive classic.

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!
