We live in an instantaneous world. With everything accessible to us from our phones and TV’s, it leaves very little room for any sense of occasion.
Instead of dining out, we get UberEATS; instead of catching up over coffee, we text; and instead of going to the cinema to watch the newest blockbuster hit, we stream.
However, the occasion of cinema is not lost on all, especially not for Brissy.
If you love the big screen behind a bucket of hot popcorn with surround sound and the comfiest seats, here is your guide to the all-round best movie theatres in Brisbane!
- Angelika Cinemas South City SQ
