Reviews

‘Robert Eggers blood-soaked Viking epic isnt just the film of the year so far its a widescreen rallying cry for cinema in the age of streaming.’

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 don’t show adverts, just a couple of trailers, so don't be late as the film itself starts very close to the advertised time!
