back 3D Movies
01
What can I expect when watching a 3D movie?
The visual presentation system employed in 3D movies attempts to maintain or recreate moving images of the third dimension, giving the illusion of depth. So you can expect the visuals to "come alive" as if the characters and objects in the film are actually in the same room as you.
02
Will the cinema screen be able to project the 3D effects successfully as the screen is flat?
Yes, with special 3D projection equipment and the special 3D glasses. A pair of 3D glasses will help create the illusion of depth required to make the on-screen visuals "pop out" of the screen, as if it were right in front of you.
03
Are we able to know in advance which movies are going to be screened in 3D?
Yes, we will advertise this information online and within our Cineplexes as soon as we receive confirmation from the film distributors on the availability of the 3D movie.
04
Why is a 3D movie ticket more expensive than regular movie ticket?

We attach a premium value to 3D tickets because of the investment costs required for a smooth and efficient presentation and experience.

Unlike 2D digital presentations, the costs involved in the equipment, glasses, manpower and service / equipment maintenance are significantly higher.

05
What happens if there is a defect found on the glasses before the movie?
You will need to approach the usher at the back of the hall to exchange your pair for another one before the start of the movie.
06
What happens if there is a defect found on the glasses during the movie, or if I don't feel the 3D effect?
You will need to approach the usher at the back of the hall to exchange your pair for another one.
07
Are the 3D glasses one-size-fits-all?
Yes
08
What should I do if I feel ill during a 3D movie?
Remove your 3D glasses, close your eyes and relax. If you need further assistance, please leave the hall and approach any of our ushers stationed just outside the hall.
09
Can I get a full refund if I find the 3D effects disturbing?
You are free to leave the hall if the 3D effects not sit well with you, but we will be unable to offer a refund if there are no technical faults or problems with the service.
10
Why are children below 2 years of age not recommended to watch 3D movies?
We do not recommend it because everyone needs a pair of 3D glasses, and these are only given out with an admission ticket. As a child below 2 years of age doesn't need a ticket, this would mean you'd need to buy an extra ticket. Also, the glasses are a one-size-fits all design, which may not fit your child.
11
If there is no usher stationed outside hall during the movie, what should I do?
Please approach the usher station in front of the main entrance and he / she will assist you.
12
Can I purchase the 3D glasses as a memento?
Movie tickets purchased include a pair of 3D glasses and you may take them home as a memento.
