Absolutely love this Cineworld! The 4DX experience is incredible, totally immersive and worth every penny. The seats move with the action, the effects make you feel part of the movie, and it takes watching films to another level. Always a great time here.
Attended for a Screen X showing - not once (apart from during commercials) did the Screen X work and the picture was all out of focus (eg subtitles cut off due to being an incorrect display). Contacted Cineworld, response was dismissive and also incorrect, took no responsibility whatsoever and tried to blame the production/artist - however other Screen X's had no issues with this showing displaying properly from checking fan groups, including other Cineworld locations. Terrible customer experience for our first trip to Cineworld - avoid.
Went to see the downton abbey film. Halfway through the film started freezing repeatedly. After reporting the issue once the issue persisted. When reporting for a second time the staff behind the counter had a aggressive and unhelpful attitude towards my spouse. Eventually the projector got rebooted and the issue was solved but never got an apology or any recompense for the disruption or poor staff attitude. Never coming back to this cineworld. Staff at Sheffield centertainment are much better.
Take my kids 6 & 13 years old to cinema for a Barbie moves yesterday, waiting for some interesting moves, cinema in Barnsley absolutely nice,clean with helpful stuff,but moves was absolutely feministing, not really for kids, more for ladys with out motivation and trust in theirs self. Absolutely disappointed with it. But cinema is cool. As well need to say befor any moves starts is 30- 40 min is advertising, thats waist my time. If my review is helpful to you please give a like. Thanks. As well need to say what lift not works to go up,you have to walk, if you take some one with willchar its a problem to get up.
Great place for an afternoon cinema viewing. Comfortable seating with unrestricted views of the screen. I'd recommend visiting here. Thank you 😊
