    Princess is a good place but budget movie-goers for it provides a much more affordable ticket prices than the usual cinemas.

    To bust the myth of people who often say that princess is gross and bugs roam around the seats etc... I tried catching a movie some time ago at princess and I must say it was a good experience for me because firstly, there is no queue and you can even get to choose some good seats. secondly, it's as though you own a private cinema because during off-peak periods, there aint many people around. Lastly, there is definitely no bugs as what people had proclaimed.

    It is more run-down as compared to cinemas like GV, but if you aint picky and merely wants to catch a movie badly but do not want to queue, princess is the choice!

      This is the best place to catch a movie if that is the only intention. I mean some ppl go for a total experience, so they demand for good ambience, great variety of snacks & drinks, lots of interesting people to ogle at etc. But for purely catching a movie, this is super.

      You go at the very last minute before movie starts and there being usually no long queue, still able to get a good seat and be in time for the movie.

      The movie starts rite on the advertised time, not many commercials to suffer through. You can freely bring food and drinks bought from other premises in for the movie too. This cuts both way as there will invaribly be people who bring in strong smelling food. But the best feature is the air condition. It is not ridiculously cold like all other places and cinemas in Singapore.

      You will have to tolerate the patrons' behavior though. Most time, there will be inconsiderate idiots yakking away during the movie at full volume, some take their own sweet time in answering call letting their ring tone going on at full blast.

      It is undergoing renovation now (at long last!). I am looking forward to going there for movies again when it reopens.

        I've watched movie there in the past.Though in your mind you'll think like the place is so gross.I am here to assure you it's not.Although it's not comparable to our GV or cathay.If you're in to just watch a movie it's alrite.The screens are big though not huge,the seats are of comfort and the tickets are not pricey.If you're into saving the extra bucks you can definitely consider watching your movie there.
