Movie Evening with Family

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

Movie tickets are 50% off on Mondays, so that's the best day to go if your party is big 😁
My niece wanted to take her daughters to the movies and got us tickets too (about 2$ each). They had decided to watch How to Train your Dragon. We had watched and liked the animated versiones, so it was cool with us.

We took a bus from where we live to a stop three blocks from the mall where the movie theater is.

It was about 4:15 and traffic was not that bad.

We walked to the mall and it felt like it was Sunday.

They say this mall used to be a hot spot, but after the new Sambil Mall opened, this became kind of an empty shell.

There are still plenty of stores opened and it looks very clean, though.

We had to go three levels up.

To Cines Unidos (one of the there main movie theater companies in town).

I personally like when malls are kind of empty.

For health and money reasons we thought we could make it through the movie without the customary snacks, but...

We could not. 😂

The tickets said 5:30, so we entered at about 5:20.

It was almost empty (more people got in after the movie started).

I had forgotten how annoying the commercials and trailers could be. I think the movie actually started at 6.

The movie was ok. I personally don't see the point of turning animated movies into live-action, but it a was good relaxing experience.
Outside there were some tempting displays of movies-related merchandise, but...

That will have to wait for better times. We are not much into that and our kids are big enough to understand priorities.

Thanks for stopping by. Have a great week.

You had a lovely bonding time with your loved ones. How nice to get discount for movie tickets; would be great to avail of this offer. Popcorn and drinks are always part of every movie time. The cinema seats also look comfortable and not crowded. I haven't been to the cinema in ages especially that tickets' price have increased a lot.

I know. I was actually surprised tickets could.be so cheap here (Caracas being the capital). In Cumaná, where we used to live, tickets and snacks were SO expensive that I never went to the movies again (it had been about 7 years).
Add to that the annoying movie-goers who, in that town, had become the norm.
I think I can occasionally go to the movies here. Some movies must be watched in a big screen
