There are a number of cinemas in Glasgow offering a wide
variety of films, from Hollywood blockbusters and children’s
movies, to Bollywood classics and art house films.
The city’s main multiplex is the Odeon [map],
which is situated right in the heart of central Glasgow.
Films on show here include all the new releases, children’s
flicks and old classics making the cinema first choice
for many film fans, so it is advisable to book your tickets
in advance. There is another 12-screen Odeon on Paisley
Road [map]
on the quay, which also offers mainstream films for all
ages.
Glasgow’s other multiplex is the seven-screen UGC
Cinema [map],
located near the Forge Shopping Centre in the East End
of the city. As you’d expect in a cinema, there
is a range of pick and mix sweets, drinks, hot dogs and
of course popcorn.
If you prefer to be at the cutting edge of cinematic technology
then get along to the Glasgow Science Centre where
you’ll find the stunning state-of-the-art IMAX
Theatre [map].
At 80 by 60 feet, it's Scotland's biggest cinema screen
and the 12,000-watt sound system has to be heard to be
believed.
For art house films check out Glasgow Film Theatre
[map],
a cultural mecca that offers arty films from all corners
of the globe with study days and themed seasons thrown
into the bargain. Family and kids' films also appear here
regularly.
If you want a taste of Bollywood then head to the Bombay
Cinema [map] on Lorne Street, a purpose-built picture house and the
only one in Glasgow to screen Indian films.
Or for a more intimate night out try the Gilmorehill
Centre [map] at Glasgow University, which has one tiny screen showing
a selection of movies from the Glasgow Film Theatre programme,
as well as old classics and cult favourites. Please note
that this cinema is only open seasonally.
The Caledonian Grosvenor [map] is also a small affair with only two screens, but it offers
a good programme of both mainstream and art house films. |
