GIFTED
Its been an interesting year, and now everything is slowly going back to normal…..or as normal it can be for now.
One of my fav hobbies and loves is going to the Cinema, this is how you should see movies.
The big screen, the explosion of sounds, being transported to another world is an amazing feeling and one that I have missed and I am sure you have missed too.
The guys over at Showcase invited me to come back to the cinema and to see a film, I couldnt wait.
IT’S TIME TO FALL IN LOVE WITH CINEMA AGAIN
Are you sitting comfortably? After the successful reopening of 14 Showcase locations in England, Showcase Cinema de Lux Glasgow and Showcase Cinema de Lux Paisley have revealed which films will be hitting the big screen.
Whether you want to revisit some of the biggest ever blockbusters, take a trip down memory lane, catch a film you didn’t get chance to see first time around or get the kids out of the house, you can sit back, relax, and enjoy your favourite movie for just £5.
Looking to finally get some action? Showcase has a film line up that’s out of this world. From Star Wars Episode V: Empire Strikes Back to Jurassic Park, or even Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, these sci-fi fantasy adventures can provide the perfect dose of excitement for your weekend.
Or treat the kids to one of the many family favourites on offer. Watch the adventure of two brothers in Disney’s Onward, or enjoy the catchy soundtrack of Sing, an animation that follows a group of singing animals. With all tickets just £5, it’s the perfect family day out.
For superhero fans, the cinemas will be screening DC classics. Watch Clark Kent become Superman in Superman: The Movie, or enjoy Aquaman, starring Jason Mamoa, as he leads the underwater kingdom of Atlantis.
If you’re a film fanatic who loves nothing more than a great movie and the big screen experience, then why not watch one of the all-time greats? Showcase has regularly shown timeless classics as part of the Flashback programme, and from Friday you can enjoy everything from Back to the Future to The Goonies to When Harry Met Sally.
To welcome back cinemagoers, Showcase Cinemas will be screening all films for just £5 a ticket. Guests are advised to book tickets online in advance or use the self-service ticket machines in the cinema lobby.
All Showcase sites opening have a thorough cleaning regime in place, plus multiple hand sanitising stations for guests to use.

the film i picked
I had a look at what was on and to be honest there were so many great films that I would love to see again…..I was taking my dad with me and he hadn’t seen Black Panther and I knew he would love it so thats what I picked.
I had only ever seen this on the small screen, so I couldn’t wait to see how it was on the big screen.
This was a fun ride from start to finish, I was totally pulled into the film and super comfy with the recliner seats.
How was it being back?
On entering I was asked if I had my ticket and if not someone would help me. I had to collect my ticket at the box office and just mention my name.
Got my ticket now to find my screen and sit down and relax.
On entering I was VERY impressed this place has changed soo much since the last time I was here, its very modern looking and the seats are all new and recline and MEGA comfy.
I sat down, took off my mask and got ready for the film.
What were restrictions?
You have to turn up 10 mins before the film starts, wear a mask until seated and if you leave the screen for the bathroom food or the film is finished you have to wear your mask.
How simple is that? yeah that easy.
Did I feel safe?
A lot of people will be worried about safety, and to be honest I felt 100% safe from my arrival till I got in my car.
The seats are limited per screen so that way social distancing is still in place, and using your mask etc
My dad who was with me also felt very safe and not worried, as they had put everything in place and was easy to follow.
Visit Overall :
Note : Just because this was an invite, that has not influenced my thoughts in any way. The above is a 100% honest review of the cinema and my experience.
Firstly a massive thanks to Showcase Cinema for my treat, I had a great night and felt very relaxed after the movie.
It was really good to go back to the cinema, I really missed the whole experience and how good it is to see a film in a massive screen and just get totally immersed.
I can honestly say going back to the cinema is as safe and fun as it was pre lockdown, and even better the films are £5 per person right now how amazing is that.
