Top Things to do in Canterbury Region
Top 10 Movie Theaters in Canterbury Region, South Island
Christchurch, the Garden City, and the Canterbury region are the perfect destination for daredevils. From northern Kaikoura to Waimate in the south, Canterbury is an adventure sports paradise. Hangliding, helibiking, bungee jumping, snowboarding, jetboating, rafting and skydiving get the adrenaline going. Golfing, flightseeing, swimming with dolphins and soaking in thermal pools are more laid-back temptations. Christchurch, a city of parks and gardens, is the countrys third largest urban area.

Great little art cinema. They seem to show a variety of movies + have singalong musical sessions sometimes. Comfy seats, small venue, 2 screens, friendly staff. I loved having a mulled wine and cheeseboard to enjoy during the movie.

This cinema is contained within the old Arts Centre in Christchurch which is made up of Gothic architecture. Most of the buildings have now been repaired as a result of our earthquakes but this cinema is a sight to behold! Very bespoke, very classy, and the cinemas offer large leather seats to relax in. There is a a cosy bar overlooking the Botanical Gardens - go and see and experience it for yourself. There is a lift so no problems for disabled or older people.

Saw the latest adaptation of Jane Austen’s “Emma” last night and thoroughly enjoyed our evening. As other reviewers have said, this has a very old time feel about it. It has successfully avoided renovations, has a great mix of sofas and old style cinema seating to choose from, and I was even able to pull over a chair to put my sore leg up. Definitely recommend this cinema if you’re in the Geraldine area

Visited Methven Cinema for the first time. I really enjoyed it. Owner who served me at the counter was really friendly and helpful and the cinema was great. Comfortable seats and a good movie with no glitches. I do suggest that the bathroom needs abit of an upgrade. Was clean and smelt good but just looking abit old. Overall I really do recommend Methven cinema to anyone in the area. Was really great.
