    Best movie house in Zim. Pity lack of competition means they sometimes take you for granted. Nevertheless clean, neat good movie house. Beware of times. Popular times ie 3 pm equals young people and full theater. 530 equal older people and full theater. 10 and 1230 equals ? But are less full. Fuller theaters tend to attract people who spoil the movie whole experience by making noise, playing with phones, walking in and out etc.

    This is an okay movie house. The screens are about out dated and the customer service is mediocre. A movie will sometimes start early or later than expected leaving little room to negotiate time wise. Overall I suppose you've got not choice but to use them but I've 😁 been to much better cinemas outside the country.

    It's a great place but quite pricey - to be safe, make a budget of 15 USD or more. As at the time of this review, they don't post the prices for movies on their website, so you only find out when you're there.

    They’ve lost it unfortunately. It’s so chaotic for the same lines to be buying tickets and snacks. $15 for a movie the whole week after it premieres. You have to book/buy tickets in person on the day of the movie which is ridiculous. They are hardly responsive on Whatsapp and often give incorrect information. The last 3 times I’ve been there were issues either with sound, aspect ratio, lights not being turned off on time, movie starting early. This last time there was a terrible smell in the theatre and the floor was all sticky so I'm very concerned about how often they properly clean.

    This is the 10th time I’ve gone and It’s been let down after let down. I recently watched the premier for Thor and they started 30 minutes late due to some issue. Last couple of times I’ve gone it’s either the film had no sound and had to be started again or they forgot to switch off the lights. I’ve complained many times. The standard needs to improve.

    Memories are mad here. I usually come for marvel movies. Mainly because I want to feel the best movie experience in the country and simply considering how the Sam Levy's SK is so convinient, a bunch of restaurants to choose from just outside. I however believe service may be improved, also being cognizant of the fact that there is no other place to compare it with in terms of movie houses. I feel the snack options might have to be broadened also but apart from that well it's still the best place in the country to go see that movie you have been longing for.

    As far as cinematic experiences go, I'd say this wasn't one of my favorites. The seats were not very comfortable. It's a good thing the movie wasn't a very long one but I think a little cushion for back support would make all the difference. Those snack bar prices are a bit wild for the portions but ey, it's business I guess. Also a wider range of options would be appreciated. I may be reaching here but personally I would have appreciated a surround sound kind of feel. I mean if you can't feel the action beneath your feet and in your bones then might as well watch from home, no? The movie was great though, so was the company. It's not all bad.

    Had such a fun family evening going to the movies Saturday 8pm show. Ster Kinekor answered my questions before the show in the WhatsApp number so we arrived in good time knowing what we wanted to watch.

    The cost of USD 9 perr person was expensive & a bit of a shock. The staff were courteous and helpful. The film was ok...not great!

  • 4/5 Nkululeko N. 2 years ago on Google
    Great place for fun with the whole family. Enjoyed the evening movie called "The Quiet Place" at Cinema 5 while the kids were watching the animated cartoon series called "Spirit" at Cinema number 4. I particularly like their prestige cinema setup with their huge comfy spacious settees which can be fully reclined without impediments to others. The prestige charges are 10USD and the experience is worth every cent.

    There were queues to pay and get popcorn. So I would advise getting there 30 mins before your movie starts. Clean , ok customer service

    Bought tickets very easily. There is a waiting room if your movie is in a while. Cinemas and lobby very clean. There is a Pizza Hut almost inside the lobby though it can not be brought to you mid movie.

    I'm sometimes disappointed by the choice of movies offered however for the most part the experience is great! I would definitely say that their snacks are overpriced and wish they would improve on that. Location is really convenient as there are lots of great restaurants in the area.

    My favorite place to watch movies. The place is always smart, clean and they have good service. The pop corns u get them fresh and a bit warm.

  • 1/5 Zim W. 8 months ago on Google
    We hired this venue for a movie premiere and I can say they don't care about local filmmakers and their little movie. "Bring on the Avengers" is their attitude. The management is full of arrogant people. This is hurting the Ster Kinekor brand that the owners in South Africa worked hard to build.

  • 4/5 Ashleigh M. 2 years ago on Google
    Had fun with my kids. Popcorn and slush on point.

  • 5/5 Josh A. 5 years ago on Google
    Loved the customer service and the theater was clean. Awesome wheelchair access into the theater not sure about the bathrooms though πŸ€”

  • 5/5 Travolta G. 1 year ago on Google
    Its a 5 🌟 , but i could have given them a 3, the aircon is freezing many a time, instead of being cool and habitable. If you forget your jersey you wont enjoy the shows.

  • 3/5 Lisa K. 1 year ago on Google
    They dont have change whixh makes u have to buy food which is very annoying and food is very overpriced so beware. Staff are very rude at times. Other than that good

  • 2/5 Zedoa 1 year ago on Google
    Please be very cautious when making payment for tickets by the confectionery section. I went there on a Sunday morning and bought 3 adult tickets,3 popcorn, and 3 drinks. To my astonishment, the cashier wanted to change me $105. When we calculated the cost of all the items again, it came down to $56. I would like to believe that this was an honest mistake, but she used a calculator! I suggest that Ster-Kinekor advertise the ticket prices clearly at all points of sales. Secondly , can hey go back to the buckets for the popcorn and not paper bags. The constant rustling is quite irritating when you are trying to watch a movie.

  • 2/5 Yolande S. 1 year ago on Google
    It doesnt make sense to have the same queue for buying tickets and popcorn, especially since there were only 2 tills opened. Then after coming out of the ladies l meet up with 2 boys and 2 girls heading into the ladies toilet😳the 1 boy reckons he is 19yrs old and intoxicated he was shocked to see me coming out of the toilet(to be honest if he was 16yrs old it would have been shocking) if l hadn't come out then what were they going to do in the toilets!!!! As for the girl if she was 14yrs old that would be pushing our luck. I understand you cannot control everything but it would be recommended to put some measures in place to control the nonsense happening.

    Nice place but it gets very full

  • 3/5 Caswell 1 year ago on Google
    The cinema was ok but it wasn't clean. I will strongly suggest that they pay attention to cleaning and service provision.

  • 5/5 Renee M. 2 years ago on Google
    Such a lovely night out with familly and friends at not a huge expense.

  • 4/5 Jo-Ann M. 1 year ago on Google
    I wish they would display prices but definitely a great experience. It's clean and very comfortable.

  • 1/5 Lily L. 1 year ago on Google
    The customer service was horrible. The place has really gone down from what it was before. Sure, if you want to just watch a movie go but I regret going there every time because of the sheer disrespect I always experience. I would much rather watch a movie in the back of a van on a Samsung than go back to that cinema because of self respect.

  • 3/5 Chef R. 2 years ago on Google
    Its okay, could do with a bit more efficiency when it comes to the service. Sometimes it seems like they are terribly understaffed.

  • 4/5 Tawanda M. 1 year ago on Google
    Relatively quick service, clean cinemas, the pizza hut and the snack offerings make it a decent place for an afternoon or a night out.

  • 3/5 Shingi C. 1 year ago on Google
    Guys at the tickets counter didn't offer the best service but the overall experience was ok

  • 1/5 Candice J o. 8 months ago on Google β€’ 1 review
    The standards of this cinema have gone down the seats are not actually very clean, and there are no ushers to monitor if someone is being rowdy in the cinema, there is no organisation when buying tickets, there will be one person selling tickets even the busiest days to a big crowd of people, so you’d be lucky to get into the movie before it begins. I’m also pretty sure the popcorn is a few days old because it pretty stale. Overall 2/10 experience.
