While Angeles City is not a very popular destination for top movie viewing experience, some decent movie houses are found in and around the city.

Standard theaters that can sit up to 300 people are usually a feature of popular malls like, Marquee Mall, SM Pampanga, Robinsons Starmills and SM City Clark. The really huge ones that can sit up to 600 people, and those equipped with IMAX and 3D abound in the capital of Manila, at least 2 hours south of Angeles.

SM is a mall giant in this country. Its Clark branch is very accessible from Fields Avenue and Perimeter hotels. SM Cinemas offer Movie Cards that are good as cash, and also Movie Discount Cards that can be used nationwide. These cards prove useful in avoiding long blockbuster queues (on date nights with lady friends, especially) and also as gifts. If you’re an avid moviegoer visiting this city and you’re not very patient with queues, we suggest you purchase your movie cards online. Movie schedules can be viewed online, too, and the website is constantly updated with new releases and coming soon’s.

Note that any type of photo or video camera is prohibited inside cinemas, but really most people get away with them. A word on food: anything is allowed inside theaters, except tomato sauce/catsup, so make sure you hide them haha!?

Also, in the Philippines there isn’t really any issue with moviegoers entering the theaters behind schedule, unlike in other countries. So never mind if you’re late, you’re welcome to come in, sit back relax, and maybe extend a little longer after the screening to see what you’ve missed. Cleanliness is OK. Cleaners collect rubbish at the end of each screening. Toilets are found close to theater entrance points.
