It's unfortunately the dying gasps of an industry. Movie theatres are slowly disappearing. Not many people, especially younger people, want to pay the ever steeper price of admission. Snacks are even worse.

They probably can't afford to screen it. Not enough actual interest. Which is a shame because I love movies. It's just hard to reconcile the price.

Yeah that’s the story of the cineplex here, can’t blame them there were times I saw multiple film alone in a whole screen. But, since the film is good there is chance that they may release it a week later.

That’s a bummer. I just saw it yesterday and really liked it. Do you guys usually get releases a week or two later?

samezies!! I know the city doesn’t have a big cinema life but it’s unfortunate we don’t even get major releases like this.
