Review of Vue Cinemas
06 Jan 08, 10:08
Overpriced glitz 
The Vue cinema is pretty much what you'd expect. Shiny, colorful and with lots of popcorn, nachos and chocolate sweets... oh and they show films as well.
As far as the screens themselves go, this is a good cinema. The seats are spacious, there's a lot of legroom and they are tiered well, so you're unlikely to be obscured by someone with a big hat, or big hair.
What I object to here is the surliness of the staff and how much they charge for kids to see a film.
I expect to pay around £7.50 as a adult now at a big chain cinema (much to my irritation), but I don't think I should have to fork out more than a fiver (yup, £5.50), so my 4-year-old can see a film at 11am on a Saturday morning. That's quite literally daylight robbery.
If you live in the area, go to Hatfield Galleria instead!
