Here is the correct link for this cinema, which I soon hope to visit.
For the prices, it’s fine. I’ve seen several movies here in the past couple of months and only a couple of them were projected properly. They have digital projection, but every movie I’ve seen in Scope was being projected with the sides cropped. Also, the 3D projection was atrocious. Again, it’s cheap and I guess that’s enough for some people. I’m guessing they do very well with the family films as animated movies play a long time here.
Theaters 1 & 4 seat about 100, and 2 & 3 seat about 120.
