    Apart from some nonchalant staff, great cinema. The popcorn is fresh most of the time and the cold drinks nicely mixed and made. The queues for the snacks can be long but the staff there are very efficient. Some chairs in some theaters need replacing though. Otherwise the quality of pictures and sound in all theaters is amazing.

    They showcase all the latest blockbusters under one roof and on time. The self-help services save time and is convenient. Their cinemas are clean and comfortable I enjoy watching movies in the Cine Prestige. The service is of good quality and value for your money.

    I really enjoy this cinema but some of the movies don't have a 2D option. Recent examples are "Dune" and "Eternals" which are only showing in 3D. Not everyone likes to watch in 3D and I would rather choose to watch it at home instead.

    It is good to be at the movies after a long time, primarily due to COVID. It is even better to be at the movies when it is empty! Price for edibles are on the expensive side but that is how the franchise makes their money. Service is not exceptional (with staff looking unfriendly) even though there were no crowds; this is an area of improvement. While the convenience of watching a movie is at home, a once-in-a-while experience at the movies is good.

    The cinema staff was slow. We had booked Prestige. Really nice experience but our snacks were delivered late, when they arrived it was not what we ordered so it took longer! Really didn’t enjoy that

    We watched a movie in IMAX and not only was it extremely hot and stuffy, but there was a consistent humming sound coming from the back. We sat in what we thought were the best seats (Row A, right at the back), but the noise was quite distracting and annoying throughout the movie! Definitely not worth the R168 we paid per ticket!!

    Absolutely poor experience here on friday. Tried out our vitality benefit for the first time with the kids and went to watch the big trip 2. Popcorn served in bags seems very cheap yet the price is not cheap. Then you get the bag and its 2/3 to 3/4 full so you not sure if you getting short changed as you can clearly see when the box is not full and query it. Twice during the movie bright lights were switched on just below the projector opening for about 5min each time which ruined the experience even before loadshedding came along and the generator never kicked in thereafter. We were given replacement tickets but wont bother with this cinema again.

    Prestige area is nice and clean. Seats are great, only thing I don't like is the people going in and out with bringing stuff in that was ordered especially during the movie. Other than that, it's nice.

  • 2/5 Madimetja Madix S. 5 months ago on Google β€’ 11 reviews
    Went for the prestige one. It was all nice and comfy, however the popcorn happened to be old because they were quite chewy which ruined the experience. Do note that this is not always the case, however it would be advisable to check/taste them upon arrival to avoid disappointments.

    this is a great place to watch movies with family and friends the environment is very safe and secure parking is inside their parking lot and if you can go to their website to pre-book your movies you can pay a special price available randomly on their websites remember it depends on the movie theatre location and the day when you want to watch your movie by the way they also have the love couches for couples wants to cuddle while they watch the movie

  • 1/5 Skye D. 1 year ago on Google
    Had the worst experience I have ever had at a cinema. Absolutely no one stopped talking, and even attempts to try and ask people to be quiet fell on deaf ears. Not worth the R200 for the tickets at all.

  • 1/5 Theven P. 4 months ago on Google β€’ 6 reviews
    Staff at the snacks counter were absolutely rude. Could not understand what options were available with our combos bought online, didn't explain that popcorn are now handed out on trays, we were sent from one attendant to next without any explanation. Rather stay home and watch a movie if u going to be treated like this.

    Sk mall of Africa really did the things for the fans for Pre release wakanda forever movie..I loved the set up πŸ₯°

  • 1/5 Bokamoso K. 1 year ago on Google
    There's a weird tendency where lights come on during the movie. Purchased a love seat only to be given half a seat - the staff were adamant that that one can purchase half a love seat for the price of 2 = Had to pay extra. Staff is not helpful at all. Also, even if you're not watching in imax, you get the full experience of hearing 2 movies at once. Don't commit to the SK fan club because it does not work properly.

  • 5/5 Orapeleng N. 1 year ago on Google
    My experience was great, they have a system that makes it quicker to get snacks and a movie ticket. And the staff are very friendly and helpful and also quick to respond to requests. I was very relaxed while watching the movie and really enjoyed my visit

  • 5/5 Malefa M. 1 year ago on Google
    Great cinema experience. Watched Woman King, The and enjoyed the quality production. The cinema caters for people with disabilities, love nest, and more. The screen is big enough to allow the you see wherever you seated.

  • 4/5 Frits S. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the better Ster Kinekor experiences. The self service kiosks work well and the staff are helpful. Being a newer cinema the seats are still nice and the movie quality is great.

  • 5/5 Bhekubukhosi K. 1 year ago on Google
    Premium service. Facilities are well maintained and up to standard. I would watch a movie at this cinema any day. Thank you to the staff for looking after my needs whilst watching the movie. I really felt like they wanted me to have the best experience possible.

    The refreshment stand service was great, sound and visual quality amazing. Unfortunately the loos were so dirty they were unusable. Otherwise a great experience.

    Easy process, excellent customer service. Pleasant staff. Fun movie. Encanto my daughter and her classmate had a blast

  • 5/5 Trisha De W. 2 years ago on Google
    Really good experience. The seats are clean and comfortable, the speakers and screen are top quality and allowed for an enjoyable movie experience. People who are seated at the back need to be mindful that their heads pop into the projection when they stand and is seen on the screen. Was a good time.

  • 1/5 Kivashna V. 2 years ago on Google
    Did not have a good experience at all! Went for the 8pm show, the movie kept going on and off. Finished my drink while waiting for the movie to come back on, the manager was reluctant to let me buy another drink because she was doing stock take. The paper bag might be a good solution in preventing the spread of germs, but not when bare hands are used to open the bag on the inside. When a relative tried to politely address this, the lady serving us started to speak about us in her language. A few days later I witnessed the very same thing happen with another relative, by the same lady I assume is the manager and was reluctant to serve me a second drink previously. I won't see another movie in a hurry, thanks!

  • 5/5 Indraja N. 2 years ago on Google
    Always have great IMAX experience here, the screen and the sound are just awesome. Very comfortable chairs with padded armrests. However outside drinks/snacks are not allowed.

  • 5/5 Zuwani N. 2 years ago on Google
    The experience was very good. I did my booking online and it was very easy to get snacks and tickets. If you are a couple I would recommend you book the love nest when reserving seats. It is well located just at the centre of the food court, so you can enjoy brunch while waiting for the movie time.

  • 3/5 Siphiwe M. 5 years ago on Google
    Great Cinema- the service level from the staff does need a bit some improvement. The cinema was clean & bathrooms also very clean. Food and pizza is only available for prestige cinema. They have wheelchair access as well. The emergency lights and the steps light are not too bright, to affect your view of the screen.

  • 1/5 Lefras U. 2 years ago on Google
    Went for pre-screening of House of Gucci. Tickets said we should be there 19h15 for cocktails...which was only set-up 30mins later. No staff,service pathetic and in summer airconditioning would be a nice-to-have!

  • 5/5 Satish A. 2 years ago on Google
    Staff were helpful. Safety protocols in place. I should have chosen a better movie though πŸ˜‚

  • 5/5 Marina O. 2 years ago on Google
    Often going to see movies here. Sad that not much variety of movies because of Covid

  • 5/5 Andries B. 2 years ago on Google
    My fiancΓ© and I went to see the new James Bond movie, No Time to Die in the Prestige theatre. What a nice experience! We enjoyed the feel of luxury and exxlusivity.

  • 4/5 Prince P. 2 years ago on Google
    The sound quality is on point and movies are great. I would advise however, that they always make sure they communicate (on the website for those of us booking online) if a movie needs 3D glasses. It's not a fun experience being told to put on your 3D glasses just before a movie starts and now you have to rush out to go buy them. Otherwise the overall experience was great. Can't take that away from them.
