Cheapest and Best Cinemas in Adelaide

hello there fellow Ozbargainer's :). going to the movies for the first time (Jason Bourne). I'm new to Adelaide, and looking for the best price, and or the best experience.

I'm looking for suggestions, and a list of the cheapest and the best cinemas in Adelaide.

how's Event Cinemas? I can get tickets for $15 each from survey credit, or should I use the credit for gift cards.
how's Hoyts, Imax? friend says it's the best.

all comments appreciated :)

Ps are there cinemas that show previous movies, like The Revenant, or older movies.

thanks all :)

        I've got no problems with Reading cinemas, chairs are same as others too. I think some cinemas have different screen size, apart from the advertised big screen ones (eg. xtremescreen or whatever it's called) smaller cinema rooms have a smaller screen. Those are usually for less popular films or older films that don't have as many viewers.

    Palace Nova off Rundle St is great. $8 on Mondays and their "Eximax" screen is a former iMax screen.

    One Cinema that may not be on your radar is:
    http://mercurycinema.org.au/ (Morphett St)
    (generally only exhibit new releases from film festivals and obscure movies that others don’t have access to).

    For older movies you could try: http://www.capri.org.au/ (Goodwood)
    or The Trak: http://www.theregaltheatre.com.au/session-times/trak-cinema/ (Toorak Gardens)

    I use Optus perks to get tickets which are about $11 each I think

    • Wystri Warrick on 30/07/2016 - 18:40

      argh I'm not with Optus, thanks thought :). does Optus perks include all cinemas?

      • Heracles26 on 30/07/2016 - 19:50

        I think it's only Wallis but not sure :)

    I used Ticket Bounty for the first time last week.
    Managed to get a couple of tickets at Wallis Cinemas to see Hunt for the Wilderpeople for $17.90 total.

    I also recommend the Capri (I usually by a book of 10 tix) and the Mercury (often offbeat movies).

    The odeon at semaphore have tickets for 8 or 9 bucks if you want to see a current movie on chairs from 50 years ago
