Cinema is not only about making people dream. It’s about changing things and making people think.
~ Nadine Labaki
Something is fascinating about cinemas. The quietness, comfy seats, and buttery popcorn can instantly lighten your mood. Visiting cinemas is an excellent, fun way to kill time. Watching a movie in the cinema is one of my favorite pastimes because it is entertaining, cheap, and a perfect way to unwind and relax.

These cinemas screen the latest movies and regularly host movie premiers where famous stars and celebrities meet the public.
