I arrived at 11am as I wanted to purchase movie tickets via the ticketing counter (there is the POSB PAssion card 1-for-1 movie tickets promotion on the 10th of every month which is only valid via counter purchase) but nothing was opened yet, including the self-ticketing kiosk. I believe that the opening hours has been brought backward presumably due to COVID-19, however this is simply unacceptable as the mall has commenced operations since 10am (I remembered that the cinema follows the mall opening hours) and there was no notice on the official website indicating of such practice.

Bringing the kiddos to a cinema I used to frequent when I was dating their mom...!!! Some of the areas of building under upgrading so it wasn't a good site...

Movie theaters are still not at its previous glory. Need to check in to the exact cinema you’ll catch your movie. There’s people but not as many as before. Impressed that they still decorated the place in view of Halloween though. Nice touch! Service a little slow but the staff were all very nice and pretty attentive. We got the couple seats and it’s very spacious.

Watched 'Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse' here last weekend. The mall and the surrounding area had convenient food options. Really cool that the washrooms are situated at the back of the theatre as it's v convenient and I don't have to miss too much of the movie. A pity that it's going to close soon.

Have been coming here since my secondary school days and it’s still a great place to watch movies.

Update in June 2023. This building is going to be demolished and a new one will take it's place. Stay tuned! This place is Empty and is literally a ghost town. I was there on a Friday evening in Sept 2021 and I saw a lot of empty stores. Most probably they are affected by the pandemic and also because cause there is a significant shift in shopping habits of the new generation. Gone are the custom and limited edition shoe stores. Only a few eateries are left and they are mostly on the first floor and the basement. The cinema is also rather quiet and one can still get good seats as a walk in customer on weekends. No need for advanced booking. It is rather sad because this place used to be bustling and very busy before the pandemic. It was the IN place to catch the latest movie releases before year 2020. Now it is just an empty shell.

Unique cinema experience.. This place is quiet and located in the most busy area in orchard.. Theatre is big and nice atmospheric and toilet is located within the theatre. Snacks and beverages is located st lvl5 and theatre in lvl 6.. Entry allowed only 10min before the show time.

Went here yesterday to watch The Lost City. The cinema surprised me, the cinema screen was wider than expected, and the Dolby 7.1 Surround Sound was a huge surprise. The sound from the speakers was bombastic. If you are planning to watch a movie with the Dolby Atmos feature, then I would suggest watching it at Cathay as an alternative to GV. For the same student price, Cathay offers movies in the Dolby format compared to GV Max Dolby Atmos which costs $9. Also, they have a popcorn promotion at $3 for students too with an add on of $1.50 for a drink. What disappointed me was the aircon giving me frostbites despite the temperature not being that cold. So, if you plan to watch a movie here, bring along a jacket and wear it at the start of the movie!

Movie booking was a hassle (compared to GV’s online system and website). The service wasn’t great and there was only 1 restroom cubicle shared between guys and gals serving several platinum suite cinemas. The only reason I gave it a 3 stars were that the seatings are further apart than GV’s Gold Class and has a physical divider.

5 stars cinema with 5 stars seating with food and drinks served. There are a choice of fried chicken, pop corns, nachos with cheese, bottled drinks and etc. The seat was too comfortable until I fall asleep during the movie showtime. 😂 …
