Singapore / Entertainment / Cinemas

For cinema-goers, Singapore has much to offer, with dozens of cinemas in and around the city centre showing everything from the latest Hollywood blockbusters and art films to Chinese dramas. Movie-going is a sophisticated business in Singapore, with many multiplexes and cineplexes featuring 5 to 10 movies at any one time in comfortable surroundings. A visit to the movies is less expensive than in most Western countries and the cinemas are all air-conditioned. Cheek local newspapers for cinema listings.

For film buffs, Singapore stages its own Film Festival biennially, screening dozens of documentaries and Lull-length feature films from all over the world.
