Things to do in Bristol, England: The Best Movie Theaters
Bristol is a quirky British city with beautiful hilly vistas and plenty of historic sights to explore. Anyone interested in ships will have a blast aboard Brunel’s SS Great Britain, the world’s first great oceanliner, and the Matthew, a replica of the ship upon which John Cabot sailed to America in the 15th century. The graceful Clifton Suspension Bridge is another must-see.

We are the longest running video rental store in the world and have over 20,000 films to hire on bluray, laserdisc, dvd and vhs. We also have 2 small but beautiful air-conditioned cinemas to watch them in with your friends. BYO drinks and food. It's an Aladdin's Cave of film!

We had a great time and are planning to go back. We hired the Videodrome (the bigger of the 2 private cinemas) and it's such an amazing venue! We had a lot of fun and the people running it are very friendly. Highly recommended!

Visited the cinema on Friday 28th September, to see Mile 22, and was impressed with the service The customer advisor on the box office, very friendly and helpful when booking the tickets along with issuing the rewards. Manager said my screen at 22:10 wasn't ready (at 21:45) so I sat on the sofa and waited, the manager then came over and advised it was ready, very helpful and polite, the screen was lovely and warm during pre-show with the music, however soon changed when the next door movie in screen 2 got underway with action, it seemed every time there was some action, I got a blast of cold air. Spoke to the box office staff who advised me that he would sort the problem. Heating came back on and remained on during the film! Had cinema to myself, private screening and the volume was just right. Overall a great visit! (Does feel a bit creepy though in the screen on your own!) Would come back again. (Family visit, Brother/ Dad saw other film/ I saw Mile 22 on my own).
