The Screen On The Hill, NW3
A Sweet Little Place. 
Adam K. says:
When I first went to Screen on the Hill my first impressions were, "What a dump!" However once I had bought the tickets and got some popcorn and I was sitting down in my seat, I realized that the place was much nicer than, for example the VUE or ODEON. There was no extremely hyper people talking throughout the movie, at last I could actually enjoy what I came to see.
Although the parking in Belsize Park is not amazing the Screen on the Hill is serviced by the 268, 46 and C11 and the Belsize Park Tube station that is just across the road.
I would definitely recommend you go visit the cinema before you judge it on the quantity of the films it shows or the amount of screens.
The Screen On The Green, N1
Refreshing Cinema Experience 
Helen E. says:
This cinema is really lovely, it is an old original picture house and it just over flows with character. The entrance hall is very small, but first impressions are not reflected in the size of the screens as they are really large.The old red velvet seats are comfy too and make for some cozy viewing. Though I fear this is because I am short anyone over 6 foot may struggle with them.
I was pleasantly surprised by the price, not anywhere near as extortionate as some of the big chain cinemas. The same can be said for the really cute selection of snacks that they sell, chocolate bars and bottled water all reasonably priced. I even enjoyed the popcorn (it wasn't warm so I thought I might not) but it was really good organic stuff.
The films that they show are really great independent quality films. So you pay your money and know your going to get something a bit better than ordinary blockbusters!
All round this place makes for a great evening, really enjoyable.
Greenwich Picturehouse, SE10
Finally a Cinema to Write Home About 
Helen E. says:
This Picturehouse is nestled in a quite corner of Greenwich, slightly back from the bustle of the pubs and bars on the main high street.
This cinema is very modern and incredibly clean. I love the fact that Picturehouse is a small chain - and the quality of their cinemas is really impressive.
The entrance ticket is quite hefty on a Saturday or Friday night, at £10 I nearly collapsed. However after getting upstairs to the cinema bar I soon realized why this place was so pricey. The lounge bar for pre- film drinks was delightful. Comfortable sofas and lounge chairs scattered around - all overlooking a great glass window that overlooks the street.
The prices once inside the cinema were really reasonable, two soft drinks at the bar came to £3 and the most pleasant surprise was the price of the popcorn and soft drink. £4 for a large popcorn and drink, amazing seeing as most huge chain cinema's charge anything up to £10 for the same quantities.
The screens were also of the highest quality, and the seats were divine. They were low slung and reclined back to a comfortable half laying position. I don't think I have ever been to a better, more well equipped cinema. An all round joy! Great staff and a great atmosphere.
Electric Cinema, W11
Absolutely wonderful 
Daniel H. says:
3 stars?!
This place is definitely worth 5, even though everyone knows about it and it's booked up weeks in advance.
Another great thing about it is instead of popcorn, you can buy little tubs of food like bangers and mash, chicken curry, macaroni cheese, and I even had fish and chips one time (they offer a choice of three, generally).
Another major pull is the fact that you drink yourself silly on big bottles of beer or decent wine after splurging out at the bar. This is especially useful for going to watch films like "The Holiday" with your girlfriend.
The 'please switch off your phone and no talking' intro sequence is a gem too, featuring an amazing A-list cast. The Odeon this ain't!
I agree it's hugely pricey, but absolutely worth it.
Curzon Soho, W1D
Better than most West End cinemas 
Daniel H. says:
I went here again recently after having not for a year, and was impressed with the small changes, especially the Konditor and Cook branch which has transformed what was a relatively grotty coffee shop! The lobby is now a nice place to relax, and probably a good place to go in its own right.
Look out for the celebrity presentations of movies. I went to see Mulholland Drive which was presented by Will Self, and I think they do a few of these events.
The screening rooms themselves are nothing special (but are fine), but what makes it a treat is that you can take drinks from the bar into them.
Fundamentally this is a way better experience than any of the other mainstream Soho cinemas, and cheaper too.
