Overview

This cinema used to be a dump and was located at the bottom of the Myer Centre.  They thankfully moved to the top of the Centre in 2002 and things are looking much better.  There are 8 screens in total and the gigantic cinema 7 shows the week’s most popular film – you’d be hard pressed to sell that cinema out.  People often forget there’s a cinema atop the Myer Centre.

Movie Quality & Range - 4 out of 10

I made reference to this cinema in my discussion of the Regent.  The Regent gets the good stuff and the Myer Centre sadly gets the rest.  It may be the inner-city’s biggest cinema but that’s about all it has going for it.

Cinema Quality & Service - 5 out of 10

The same as with every other Birch, Carroll & Coyle cinema.  It may seem like I’m unnecessarily beating up on BCC but they don’t deliver and are all marketing hype.  I don’t think I’ve been to a cinema in Brisbane with worse queue problems than the Myer Centre.  How it happens, I do not know.
