Staci0615 Posted March 17, 2013 #1 Share Posted March 17, 2013 I am booked on the Breakaway in August and under amenities on my ncl it says there is an on board cinema where they will be showing movies. I could not locate it on any of the deck plans? I remember some cruises where they would show first run movies on board and I loved it because who has time to go to the movies when you are home. So I would love to catch a movie or two....I hope it will really be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDD06 Posted March 17, 2013 #2 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Not sure about a cinema on the Breakaway. On the Epic they show movies in the atrium and on the big screen at Spice H2O. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anginette Posted March 17, 2013 #3 Share Posted March 17, 2013 I only see a reference to a cinema in the kids' club. who has time to go to the movies when you are home. Most people, especially on weekends? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnql Posted August 9, 2013 #5 Share Posted August 9, 2013 I was just checking my Vacation Summary for my Breakaway cruise and under the section where you can pre-book excursions, order gifts, etc., they have a section listing all of the Onboard Activities (Nightlife/Entertainment), which includes a cinema. Does this exist or is it just a mistake on NCL's web site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dapod423 Posted August 9, 2013 #6 Share Posted August 9, 2013 There is no "Cinema" on the Breakaway. I sailed June 23rd. All movies were shown in the Atrium on a big screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I thought. Just wanted to confirm that NCL's description was misleading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncleboo Posted August 9, 2013 #8 Share Posted August 9, 2013 how were the movies they showed? was there enough seating in the atrium for the movies? they needed to have a real movie theatre for movies and meeting etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lesliejayne Posted August 9, 2013 #9 Share Posted August 9, 2013 I was on the June 30 sailing and the movies were shown in the atrium. I just glanced through my Freestyle Dailies and they were showing the movies late at night. (We never watched any of them). The atrium is a focal point for music and game shows, so I guess they are limited to running the films at off hours. One was a Batman movie and the other was The Bourne Legacy (I think it was the latest reboot). So the movies aren't the most current ... it would have been nice to have a regular theater....

OnTheGoMom921 Posted August 10, 2013 #10 Share Posted August 10, 2013 There is no cinema on the Breakaway. However, on our sailing the first night they had a "movies under the stars" out at H20 on the big screen. I believe there was a 2nd time on the last night of the cruise as well. The other movies were always shown in the atrium on the large screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cubechick Posted August 10, 2013 #11 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Thanks. That's what I thought. Just wanted to confirm that NCL's description was misleading. To me that's not "misleading"...that's a lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timbom Posted August 10, 2013 #12 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Saw part of a movie on the outdoor screen one night don't know if that is an every night option as I never saw it advertised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnql Posted August 10, 2013 #13 Share Posted August 10, 2013 To me that's not "misleading"...that's a lie. I guess I was being charitable. It could be argued that if they show movies in a different venue (the main theater, for instance, or the atrium), then that space becomes a cinema while the movie is being screened. The description doesn't explicitly say that there is a dedicated cinema. All that said, calling it a lie is not unreasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does this exist or is it just a mistake on NCL's web site? They also advertise a Pub Crawl in this same section. I have read on another thread that this doesn't exist either. Does anyone know for certain? I was looking forward to the pub crawl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very charitable. ;) Honestly, I don't cruise to watch movies, but if they're going to advertise a cinema, then there should be one. I am an advocate of truth in advertising. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
