Maybe your cinema is a fleapit, ours is pleasant comfortable and nicely 
air conditioned. For most movies there are at least 6 showings a day 7 
days a week. If you can't find a convenient time you aren't trying. The 
only drawback is the 10 minute drive to get there, the bonus is that 
movies always look better on a full size screen than on even the biggest TV.
