UGC Cinemas: Ipswich.

This from
Paul: 'The Ipswich UGC, now CineWorld was opened on May 1st 1998. It was at the time a flagship cinema for Virgin Cinemas. It boasted 3 THX screens and had digital sound (Dolby & DTS) in all of its 11 screens. All screens are a good size with the largest seating 510 and the smallest 80 - with luxury reclining seats - part of the old premier screen that Virgin operated. Since the cinema was taken over by UGC it has gone down hill, the seats are badly damaged and in need of repair. It is no longer THX certified (great pity as it used to sound amazing) and the presentation of scope films is often messed up. This is a great pity too because as a modern cinema it is a nice place to see films. Hopefully CineWorld will put some money into the site and make it as good as it once was, especially as the Odeon has now closed.'
