Residents of the Ukrainian capital and guests of the city often spend time in cinemas. Traditionally, friends meet while watching movies, and dates are arranged in cinema halls. Cinemas in Kyiv offer tapes for every taste, which can be viewed using modern or traditional technologies. In most metropolitan cinemas, several halls are open at once, which allows you not to book tickets in advance and choose seats where you will be comfortable to sit.

Cinema chains

There are several chains of cinemas in Kyiv. They deserved the highest ratings according to the results of the popular vote. One of the most popular networks is Megaplex. Like many cinemas in Kyiv, the establishments of this network are affordable for many citizens, and discounts are offered for students and children. One of the most popular establishments of the network has taken a place in the Blockbuster shopping center. This cinema can simultaneously accommodate up to 1,800 spectators,rather expect a session he offers in the spacious cafe and lobby. The only drawback of the institution is that it can only be reached by a branded bus or minibus.

The best cinemas in Kyiv are also included in another network - "Butterfly". The most popular institution of this network is inferior in size to the one described above - it has only 6 cinema halls. It is located in the entertainment center "Ultramarine". The institution has earned its popularity for its focus on the general public; in the repertoire you will find not only tapes for mass display, but also art house or retro paintings. Moderate prices, additional entertainment and comfortable sofas in the halls have made this chain very attractive to the public.

Where you can watch new movies

If you want to watch new movies in good quality, then you should visit the Oscar cinema. Like many cinemas in Kyiv, it is located close to the metro, which makes it very attractive for visitors. He has a very informative and user-friendly website, which allows you to quickly get the information you need. The most accessible are morning sessions, and the institution makes attractive discounts for students. The location in the shopping center allows you to pass the time before the session in a cafe, restaurant or rollerdrome.

It is impossible to ignore another cinema, located in the very center of the capital, not far from the "Maidan Nezalezhnosti". It is called "Ukraine". Despite the establishment's elitism, ticket prices are affordable (about 60 gr.), especially for students and children whodiscounts are applied. While waiting for the movie, you can pass the time here only in a cafe, no entertainment for visitors is provided. Films are often added to the repertoire, intended for trained film lovers. This is not the only cinema showing films from unpopular genres.

Fine establishments

Describing the best cinemas in Kyiv, we cannot ignore the very first institution where films have been shown for a long time. It is called "Kyiv" and was built in Soviet times. The main advantage of this institution is its location in the city center. A large number of discounts and festivals held in this cinema attract a wide variety of audiences. There are a lot of offers for children in this cinema. Since its construction, the cinema hall has undergone many changes. It has one of the best 3D film screening equipment.

Unusual genre films are most often shown at the Zhovten cinema on Konstantinovskaya 26. Weeks of auteur films are also held here and retrospectives of films by cult directors are shown. Not many cinemas in Kyiv can boast such a rich repertoire. Each of the five halls of this institution has its own atmosphere. Often in the repertoire you can find quite rare films that are not widely released.
