As large multiplex cinemas in Edinburgh go, this would be my choice by a country mile. \n\nHowever, that doesn't mean it's a very good cinema. It's not. The ticket prices are expensive, the cinemas are either too cold or too hot, the sound is often ropey, the picture is frequently on an incorrect ratio and is constantly being mucked about with, it feels and looks a bit dirty, and the staff are at best po-faced. \n\nAnd of course, everyone talks through the film. \n\nThis in itself is not a trait limited to the Edinburgh Cineworld. There are plenty of plebs happy to spoil the movie by yakking through the whole thing that don't frequent this multiplex. But honestly, I don't come to this place thinking the audience will behave itself. In fact, I have the opposite perspective, and whenever I come here I try to ensure that I am as far away from other audience members as possible, because chances are they are some gobby arses that think it's acceptable to discuss the film while it's still playing. I despair. \n\nPlus the loos aren't very nice.
