Has anyone had any recent positive experience in watchin movies at dubai mall, dubai marina mall or mall of emirates platinum/gold class.?

tried callin their number on the website but no response...just movie details but cant ask detailed questions as no operator assistance.

Im taking someone as a special birthday treat so want to go to one of these cinemas...i heard generally that the dxb marina mall cinema is better anyway but not sure if they offer platinum as i have never been...i want bigger screen and ofcourse the luxury feel - if anyone has tried all three or any of these, please please let me know..

Also, i heard that they have a lounge where u can purchase food - is the food expensive and is there a wide selection? like sandwiches, pizza etc? and roughly how expensive is this and the food and regular soft drinks, popcorn and juices? and do they do hot drinks and dsserts - hot and cold?

can we take the food from the lounge inside to the cinema? and also how long in advance before the movie can we go and relax in the lounge?

if i bring my own for example bottle of water, will they allow me to take it inside?

sorry its a birthday treat for someone special so i want to make it right..please help with as much detail as poss..

I have tried Dubai Mall and MOE. The Dubai Mall one is quite small and the screen is tiny, like GA said below, but the seats are much comfier and the service seems to be better. Last time I went to the one in MOE, it took almost an 30 min to get an orange juice!! Food prices are standard at both (30 - 60 dhs range for the meals and 20 - 40 dhs for snacks). I haven't been to the Dubai Marina Mall one, but I have friends who go there all the time. From what I understand, they only have the fancy seats anyway (Dhs 50 for a regular ticket, I think they said), and the Gold Class. Hope you have a good time :)

I like the one at Mall of the Emirates (i haven't been to Marina Mall). There is a (hot) food service and they have waiters who will bring your food into the theatre. There's also a call button if you want anything during the movie. I remember thinking the food was a little expensive, but I can't remember exact prices...I guess just a standard mall restaurant prices really. I'm not a fan of the one in Dubai Mall - the screen was tiny and there wasn't much atmosphere. To be honest I'm spoiled as the one in Manchester that I would go to - the tickets were double the usual ticket price but you got unlimited free popcorn, candy and soda included in that, and you could also purchase alcohol in a private bar area. To me, gold class should be about more than just big seats but there you go.... Thank you so much for your feedback...now im really confused as the dubai mall is very convenient to me compared to mall of emirates but hope i can get a good comparison of both - thanks again
