Our favorite movie theater with children. Even though it's already old. Cozy, convenient location.

Hello! We were at a session of the cartoon "Migration" today, we took tickets for VIP seats, I sat down right away, but my husband decided to check before planting a child. And oh, horror, we found dried white traces, I really really hope that this is not what we thought, but ice cream or something else. But the cleanliness in the hall is not monitored in any case! We moved to another clean (looking) sofa so as not to disturb other viewers. After the session, we tried to inform the administrator, but the guard or who he is (the man with the badge) could not tell us how to find him. Be careful, it's just disgusting!!!!
We recorded this incident on video, today we noticed and tomorrow someone will sit down without seeing it. There are just no words
I love this cinema, I have been going to it since childhood, although not so often. I used to be more sincere, or is it the machinations of youth...there is an iron Arnie on the bike :)
The only good ones are popcorn and a ticket inspector. Sound, picture - none, and there is also a smell in the hall. I understand that this is the oldest cinema in the city, but going to watch movies is no-no-no.
Make a museum of cinema and basta already.
I really liked the cinema! The staff is polite, the halls are always clean and the quality is great! Thank you for the opportunity to spend time with the children, by the way, I also liked the popcorn)
06.07.2022 at 18..00 the red Minion hall was with my daughter.
Cons due to the lack of ventilation and air conditioning, it was stuffy, although there were not so many people, the impressions did not really start from the cash register, the cashier was nervous, twitchy, no information, you were pulling everything out with questions, there were no offers, in the end she reluctantly replied that there were no draft drinks and the question where the fruit popcorn hung was boring, and the most interesting thing after the movie, my daughter wanted to go to the toilet for 5 years, and the cashier once again snapped that the toilets were not working in the cinema, I had to go to the neighboring burger king, which I advise, it's better not to be fooled by their discounts, and not regret the difference of 500 tenge, but it's better to go to the film park or Chaplin, I saw for myself, have a good day to everyone
Horror, the air conditioner in the hall is not working! The staff at the beginning said it was working and he allegedly couldn't cope, and then admitted that the air conditioner didn't work at all! Why do you sell tickets if there are no conditions for a comfortable time?!
The guy at the checkout in the shift on April 3 is very pleasant, the service is at the highest level, everyone talks to customers and customers like that
Cinema of childhood. Yes , not fashionable and not modern , but very native . I like to walk in such places 😊

This cinema is everything to us, this place is like a story to me. (2000's and posthumously Batyrkhan Kamalovich (Batyr) Shukenov (kaz. Batyrkhan Kamaluly (Batyr) Shukenov Batyrkhan Kamalovich (Batyr) Shukenov (kaz. Batyrkhan Kamaluly (Batyr) Shukenov
This place will be a story for everyone who was in childhood. It doesn't matter who is to whom, but! We are the legacy of our time and the past,...?!?
I went to the Matrix 4. It feels like they showed a pirated copy or a very bad videotape from the 90s. And they took the money for the ticket quite for themselves as for dolby or aimax.
The quality is faded, there is no brightness, the focus is blurred! The screen was also cut off, the subtitles are only half a line visible at the bottom. The sound was muffled, as much as the air conditioner interrupted the sounds of the movie.
In general, this is very bad! I do not recommend it, go to normal modern cinemas.
I didn't think that in 2021 the audience would be so deceived.
The waiting room and the lobby are under partial renovation. The smell of paint, building materials, etc. The passage to the "green" hall was not even cleaned, they passed through dirt and debris from repair work.
Do not take food/snacks at the checkout. It's dirty! The cook made a hot dog without gloves from a bun, an old dried sausage with voids inside. You can't sell that!
It looks like this cinema is in crisis, and repairs won't help. And most importantly, how can you show a movie in this quality and charge money for it!
It's a pity, but once the Arman cinema was the coolest in the city, where the first 3D stereo films were shown.
PS There is a burger bar and a Starbucks in the cinema building.
At BurgerKing, the food there is also very poor quality. This is strange, considering that it is a network and located in the city center - where are the quality standards?!
Starbucks is normal.
Once upon a time in his youth, many films were reviewed in this cinema. I don't know how things are at the building right now. There is a good cable car on the Koktyube nearby, which offers views of the whole city. Also nearby is the Kazakhstan hotel, which was the main business card of Almaty.
The price for tickets is very good and the halls are pleasant, not big but comfortable, I took a burger with French fries from them, it's better not to
I really love this cinema, the staff is always friendly, everything is clean, my son and I came to the session at 10.00 am, despite the fact that it was only us, the session took place.
A simple and uncomplicated cinema, a big plus is the prices. If you go with the children, you can save your budget. There's a burger joint nearby, and excellent oriental cuisine a block above.
The old Almaty cinema. It has 4 halls: red, blue, large halls, on the 2nd floor, 2 small ones. In large halls, the seats are old and hard. It wasn't noticeable before, but after the new cinemas appeared, then the seats are different. For residents of the city, this cinema is a memory of youth, student years, romance😄
The best cinema on the planet. The picture quality is normal. Sound too. The chairs are decent. The price is the lowest in Almaty. In short, cheap and angry 8)
A good cinema, built in Soviet times, according to a unique project.
There was a winter garden, glazed, two halls, stereo films were shown at that time (now it's fashionable 3 D)))
But for the sake of the "market", the halls were divided into parts, one hall is quite small.
There is a "buffet" with popcorn and drinks, prices are higher than in the store (although it is unclear why)
In general, it can be estimated at 4*.
The same movie for a cheap ticket, and all the same. By the way, it was delicious popcorn. And nearby, a block above, there is excellent oriental cuisine.
It used to be a very good cinema, we used to go there often as a child, but lately it's getting worse and worse, the range of drinks is small, and the view is not very good, they would have already done the restoration

It's not very good, everyone's running around inside, the kids are talking, I can't hear them
The best halls, sound, screen and prices in the city, in my opinion. Despite the preservation of the exterior (since it is an architectural monument), the hall itself is just super!
