I had been told about the amazing experiences in Mexican cinemas but felt a bit let down by the venue. First impressions positive with a nice open entry hall and clean bathrooms. Also once seated the chairs are big and recline which was very comfortable with a table/chair service. That's where everything then stoped being great and went mediocre. The food we ordered just wasn't that good. It took 40mins to arrive, I would have at least liked to have the drink straight away while the rest is cooked. The plain hotdog was wrapped in foil and looked squashed with dense bread. It came with some jalapenos, Pico de Gallo, 4 tomato sauce, 1 mustard and 2 mayo.

Dissapointed, and a little perplexed, I settled on a coffee from the many choices listed. You guessed it. No coffee. WT ? The food choices came with a guarantee of obesity and nausea, so we passed. Not...
Read moreVIP seats are obviously better, but the regular seats are pretty good too!
Regular tickets for two people is only $178 pesos, super cheap per ticket.
VIP is around 300 pesos or so.
If you want English in a regular English language film, it will state "Sub", "Esp" means dubbed in Spanish. It will be under the film where the times are.
Front Row: We were stuck in the front row (second to the very very front) and I thought it would have been AWFUL and a waste but it was bare-able. Once the movie started it actually wasn't that bad! They don't put them right up to the screen like other...
