it’s definitely special to watch a movie in this cinema, only the audio could be improved at times, but maybe that’s the trade off when watching in the largest cinema Germany’s.
Very friendly staff, lost my samsung buds ,When I came back the next day, they put them aside for me and i got them back. Happy ending

It's a huge Theatre. Watched Oppenheimer here. Couldn't ask for more. Overall a good experience. Why 3 stars? Because, one of the major aspects of a Theatre is the quality of sound. The audio wasn't loud enough. It might be different for other shows/movies. But, for Oppenheimer, it clearly didn't meet the expectations!
Oppenheimer English version, 70 mm.

This was my third visit to this elegant, old style cinema to see some top rate rock. This time I had returned to experience the legendary Steve Hackett (former Genesis guitarist) and his band as they played fantastic music, some going back over 50 years. The smallish stage is not conducive to large spectacular light shows but the acoustics are ideal for genuine music lovers. The seats are cinema style so comfortable with a decent amount of leg room. The bar serves decent drinks as well.
I had parked nearby (3 minutes walk) in one of the many multi story car parks here in the centre of Essen.
All in all another great evening of nostalgic entertainment in a lovely venue.

Classy and charming original theater! Not sure why people keep rushing over to Cinemaxx when they've got this beauty only a few blocks away. Tickets are reasonably priced, concessions much cheaper (and better!) than at Cinemaxx. A lot of movies are shown in the original version with subtitles. Make sure to get a seat up on the balcony!
