"Entertainment unlimited – a total cinema experience'' that's what the
newest cinema theatre in the metropolis promises. Judging from the look
of it, CITY CINEMA sure is not boasting. And the man behind the big
screen (yep, it's big, size of two double decker buses) has the skill,
technical know-how, expertise to make this theatre what it is with the
family tradition to back him up.

Mount City Building, Mount Lavinia is a modern day popular compact
cinema that would please the highly tech-savvy connoisseur as well as
the hardened film-goer. Theatre's mission is to give the patrons a big
city entertainment experience in a suburban setting. The customers can
relax in comfort and watch high-quality presentations of popular movies,
all within a short walk or drive from home. In a situation where
worldwide technology is growing rapidly but Sri Lanka is lagging behind,
thisreally is a bold effort to catch up. In fact, CITY CINEMA could be
dubbed the first fully fledged digital cinema as it is not a converted
old theatre. The confirmation is in its features.

As those in the know would describe unlike movies shown on film
projectors, DLP Cinema technology delivers a true digital picture with
incredible clarity and vibrant colours every show, every day for the
entire run of engagement. This technology eliminates colour fading, jump
and weave, scratches and dirt accumulation which are common problems
that are associated with old style projector film presentations. CITY
CINEMA has been originally designed for DPL technology and not undergone
a conversion from the traditional, it is equipped with the most
suitable and appropriate DPL technology available with provision for
future upgrades. This has allowed the theatre management to focus on
creating a better customer experience.With its massive screen and
powerful sound system, CITY CINEMA can bring out the best in
action-packed blockbusters and quirky independent features alike.

character but a comfy, snug motion picture alcove. It's your cinema. It
