“How wonderful to experience such a tiny, immersive venue brimming with personality and boasting a programme as unique as itself. We watched the Solve Along Murder, She Wrote. Not only did we have an awesome time being entertained in such a traditional way: humour, surprises and great engagement, we left feeling like we’d learned so much too, tales of actors, techniques and plot lines. Now I can’t stop watching MSW on tv! Honestly, check out their programme if you are in the area, there’s sure to be something memorable.”

“Really cool little cinema located in a colourful part of Digbeth, full of lights, graffiti and sculptures. The screening rooms are small and intimate ( I guess around 30-40 seats each room), which makes it feel cosy and unique. Good prices and a great atmosphere overall. The only downside was that it was quite cold during our last visit.”

“Interesting little cinema. Clean but tiny screen. Plenty of snacks and prices not bad at all. Toilets are a bit of a maze though 😬”
