The tickets are reasonably priced and scanning my qr code in my email on the self kiosk was easy to print my ticket out. But even though we were in the 1st session at 9:45 the theatre seats were very worn and had popcorn and old movie tickets in them. It was also very cold. Need to wear a jacket or bring a blanket next time.
The theatre itself was fine. However, the staff let a woman and three children under four in to watch the Jurassic Park movie which finished at 10pm. The kids cried for the first 20 minutes. They were sitting the front row. We were sitting in the back row. We could very clearly hear everything. I went out to complain. The staff said it is policy to give a warning first. So I was told to come back out and complain again in 20 minutes if the kids were still crying. They cried for another half hour with 5 minute gaps. Then someone else went out and complained.nSo basically the first hour of the movie was ruined. I had bought four tickets. I had wanted to have something relaxing and enjoyable. This was not it.
Our favourite movie cinema in ChCh. Prefer the seats that do not recline and cheaper. Pricing goes up and down as certain days/movies are cheaper than others and prefer to book online but this is slightly more as well. Great we can bring our own food as we have eating disorders. Comfy seats at a relaxed clean venue & quieter than most cinemas especially if you wait for awhile after the movie has been released. Staff are nice and welcoming and go out of their way to help. Large enough theatre screen & sounds are crisp and clear. Sometimes we bring a blanket for our legs, much more cosy & enjoyable. Wouldn’t go anywhere else and we live on the other side of town so further travel & worth it.
Travelled from the Novotel Christchurch Airport to The Palms in a taxi $88 to specifically see a movie on the Titan Luxe screen as the description of it on the website sold me but, truth be told, the picture quality was soft and the screen refresh rate was obvious and slow. Also, the food options were abysmal, just basic movie theatre food such as popcorn, drinks, icecream and lollies. Definitely not the audio/visual spectacular that I anticipated
Great prices nice clean cinema's. Convenient parking etc.
