5) VISION CINEMAS
-
Location :- K.H Road .(Opposite Shanti Nagar Bus stand)
-
Seating comfort and Visual Experience: – Average. Sound quality is not that great.
-
Parking :- Ample Parking space inside the theatre. The traffic is moderate near it.
-
Online Booking Facility: – Its availiable, but the website is slow and not correctly maintained.[ http://www.visioncinemas.net/vision-online/ ]
-
Rates :- Not as expensive as others.
-

-
Overall Experience :- Is pretty good based on what region of the city you are from. If you are desperate to get tickets for a movie when everywhere else its booked, you are most likely to find it here.
4) INOX
-
Location :- Magrath road. (Walk down from Mayo hall, MG Road)
-
Seating comfort and Visual Experience:- Good. Seating and screens are very good but the AC is bad. Either too hot or cold.
-
Parking :- The traffic is bad most of the time if you are approaching from MG Road. Parking especially for Cars is a horrible experience. For 2 wheelers its fine.
-
Online Booking Facility – Inox Online Bokking is availiable but again hard to use. They don’t update movies properly and booking for an inexperienced internet user is hard.[ http://www.inoxmovies.com/inox/wcms/en/home/insta-tickets/index.html ]
-
Rates :- High ,especially on weekends and for big releases.
-

-
Overall Experience :- The location makes it ideal. But it has only 5 screens, so people who go there to watch a movie normally see houseful boards.
3) FAME LIDO
-
Location :- Old Madras road. It’s on a one way so you cannot reach it from MG Road. Via Ulsoor is a better option.
-
Seating comfort and Visual Experience: – Excellent . The seats are very comfortable and Sound is very good.
-
Parking :- Parking space is easily available inside the theatre
-
Online Booking Facility :- Fame Cinemas online booking is good and easy to book . But the username they automatically give you is hard to remember.[ http://www.famecinemas.com/ ]
-
Rates :- Pretty expensive .
-
WikiMapia Link :- Click to view the Location of Fame Lido
-
Overall Experience :- The location is a little bit hard to reach as it’s on a one way. But the theatre has a very good ambience. Again only a 4 screen multiplex means your travel there may be futile. So check and go.
2) PVR CINEMAS
-
Location :- Forum Mall, Koramangala
-
Seating comfort and Visual Experience : Excellent. Great sound and the best screens in the big halls. But the smaller halls are not that great .
-
Parking :- Big problem especially on weekends. Perennial traffic jams in front of forum means it’s a bore to reach PVR.
-
Online Booking Facility :- PVR Cinemas have an excellent website but cumbersome online booking. They can make it much better. But they have a great kiosk booking facility.[ http://www.pvrcinemas.com ]
-
Rates :- Expensive. Exorbitant for high profile releases.
-
WikiMapia Link:- Click to view the Location of PVR Cinemas
-
Overall Experience :- Lot of screens so you will get to watch a movie on a weekday. Long queues for booking tickets, a very crowded mall makes it a tad irritating. But once inside the theatre and the movie starts, it’s the best.
1) FUN CINEMAS
-
Location :- Sigma Mall, Cunningham road
-
Seating comfort and Visual Experience :-Excellent. The theatre has incorporated all the best features of other theatres.
-
Parking :- Parking easily available inside, as the mall is empty most of the time
-
Online Booking Facility :- Fun Cinemas online booking is Excellent. Use your Gmail or any other email id to log in and book easily. Best booking facility of them all.[ http://www.funcinemas.com/ ]
-
Rates :- Not as expensive as others. Much better than PVR or Inox,but they are slowing increasing the rates.
-
WikiMapia Link :- Click to view the Location of Fun Cinemas
-
Overall Experience :- Is the best of all the multiplexes in Bangalore. Is at a very good location, the mall is not too crowded, has the best screens and booking facility. But again it’s a small multiplex so you may not find tickets to watch a movie.
Note : Innovative multiplex near marathahalli is by far the worst multiplex in Bangalore. They have the worst screens,sound and the saddest location too. To top it all, a very bad management .
New Multiplexes in the near future
Bangalores Builders are tying up with several Multiplex Chains to give you end to end entertainment in their malls. The Builders have observed that foot falls increase drastically if a mall also has a multiplex in it. Sigma mall is a classic example where the introduction of a Multiplex( Fun Cinemas) has added a lot of foot falls. I have listed below the upcoming multiplexes in Bangalore.
Fame LIDO is mostly setting up a multiplex at the Public Utility Building where Symphony theatre is present. It also plans to have a 1,350-seater multiplex at the upcoming Sigma Mall on the Outer Ring Road(closer to KR Puram bridge).
INOX is planning 3 more multiplexes in Malleswaram(mostly in the Mantri apartment complex) , Jayanagar and Koramangala.The Malleswaram multiplex plans to have 7 screens with 1,720 seats, Jayanagar multiplex,four screens with a seating capacity of 1,100 seats and the Koramangala multiplex ,1,860 seats for 7 screens.
PVR – Brigade Gateway the biggest township project in Bangalore will house a 11 screen PVR multiplex in Malleswaram-Rajajinagar area. People of these areas will have much more options after this too is set up.
In the location of erstwhile Minerva mills in Rajajinagar there will be a mall and a multiplex.

I have voted for Fun Cinemas. But Fame Cinemas is equally good. The best part about both these theaters(at least presently), is that, we can book tickets online from home easily. Their sites are never down unlike PVR Cinemas. They should do something about it, at least after reading this comment
.
