Odeon IMAX opens this Friday in Milton Keynes!

This Friday, the new Odeon cinema opens at the Milton Keynes Stadium, with an IMAX screen- which will be Milton Keynes' biggest screen. As well as the addition of the recent restaurants at the MK1 area by the Stadium, this cinema is set to be yet another attraction bringing people to the city. With the recent opening of the 4DX and 'Superscreen' at the Cineworld in Milton Keynes, film fans are now going to be spoilt for choice as to what to see and where. As well as 11 screens, including the IMAX, there will be a wide selection of refreshments, including a metropolitan Costa coffee shop, Ben and Jerry's, the usual popcorn and drinks, SNOG frozen yoghurt and more. There will be premier seating available in all screens, and well as 'The Gallery', which is Odeon's VIP experience- where guests can enjoy extra wide seats, added leg room, unlimited popcorn, nachos, soft drinks and a great view from their own area of the cinema. Guests can also enjoy a drink in the private bar before the film.

Seeing a movie nowadays has become more and more flashy, and the focus is now on the whole experience, rather than just seeing the film. So if you're a film-buff or just interested in what the new place looks like, why not pay it a visit this weekend? The pictures show what it is set to look like- see how it compares!

What's on at the movies?

It seems to be a good week for film releases this week, there's a lot on for you to check out at the weekend! Here's just a few to get you inspired...

You may have seen these guys in 50 first dates, so it's a little bizarre to be seeing them together again in a different movie, but 'Blended' is well worth a watch. Laugh-out-loud funny, touching and a great story, this film is set to be loved by all the family. 'Blended' tells the story of a couple who get stuck together in Africa, along with their children, after a disastrous blind date! Out now in cinemas, this is one not to be missed!

 

  

'Maleficent' tells the previously untold story of Disney's villainess from the tale of Sleeping Beauty, Maleficent. Starring Angelina Jolie (with some crazy looking cheekbones!), this story tells the 'other side' of the tale; what caused Maleficent to curse Sleeping Beauty and why was she so 'evil'? Another great one for all the family, although the little ones may be hiding their eyes at points! Disney have done it again in producing a great movie!

While we're beginning to loose count of the number of X-Men films we've now seen, it can never be a disappointment to see another one on the screens...can it?! 'X-Men, days of future past' stars the ultimate X-Men cast as they fight across two time periods. This time-travelling, action-packed performance is set to grab your attention from start to finish, and while you may think it's all been done before, this film yet again brings something new to the table.

A remake of the old classic, 'Godzilla' is now new and improved with 21st century effects. An action packed movie, this reinvention delivers great characters and an awesome spectacle. A battle between the radiation-enhansed Godzilla and humankind- who will win?!

One for the kids! Possibly worth avoiding if you remember the original Postman Pat as this chap looks a little different, but nonetheless, see Postman Pat as you've never seen him before! Postman Pat enters a talent show and the film sees a robot take his place as postman! See what happens in Pat's first CGI animated big screen family movie!
