Event Cinemas St Lukes one of the best place for movies because its easy to park , friendly staff(they normally give me seat in the middle), quick service. best thing within 10 mins you can park ur car and buy your movie ticket. what else we neeeeed for movie.

Love VMAX. This is a great place if you want to impress someone or just take some time out and relax :)  The seats are just super comfortable and quite big so you can sit there without have sore legs or backs.  The screen size f big which makes it much more exciting.  If it is 3D movie.., definately worth watching here at Vmax :)

great to know :)

I loved Vmax saw The Bourne Legacy on the big screen and it was amazing a must seen movie

This is one of the few other event cinemas which has the big screen, which is slightly smaller than IMAX but bigger than any of the other screens. We loved watching few of the movies here. Also there is loads of parking and starbucks just next to the cinemas.Great place to go to.

Nice n handy for the surrounding suburbs and heaps of parking given its location in the mall. I wish the foodcourt would stay open a little later so you could take advantage of the dinner then movie option, but there is a small bar next to the entrance that serves food :)

The movies is the best especially the Event Cinemas at St Luke's, If I ever go to a cinema I go to St Luke's. I think you should go to St Luke's because the toilets are sanitary and clean they have prompt and polite service, clean restrooms and auditoriums and very friendly workers. (I recommend St Lukes Cinema)

The movies at St Lukes are well situated by an entrance so it is easy to park and walk right in while avoiding the craziness of the mall if you need to. They have a good queueing snake so you don't get stuck behind one slow person it is all queue together and next up gets served which i like. The popcorn is so fresh and nice and salty which is a great thing for me. I love the lose lolly mix and the icecreams are yummy and a good size. Candy bar prices are really affordable.

For some reason, St Lukes is more expensive than my other local Event Cinema.. perhaps because its near town? I often frequent here though as it is a handy place to meet up. The VMAX cinema, although expensive is far more comfortable. I think like every Event Cinema though that the food is an absolute rip off. I dont often buy it but did last time and it was $14 for popcorn, coke and maltezers. Go figure!

This place is always packed no matter what time the showing. Tues are very bad indeed. Dont get caught at the top of the stairs in the line up some people are just waiting for mates. Also go toilet downstairs the lines at the top ones are huge just before a film.

Being a builder there is nothing like going to the big screen to relax and watch a good movie, This is the best theatre complex in Auckland, Super convenient.
