Advantages: Show films you otherwise couldn't see in a cinema

Disadvantages: None

Tyneside is a very special cinema that everyone wishes they had but unfortunately don't. It mainly shows independent and foreign films some of which you might be hard pressed to find a dvd of let alone see in a mainstream cinema. They do occasionally show blockbuster films here, for instance Lord of the Rings, Indiana Jones and Watchmen have all received showings here.

Their prices are about the same as mainstream cinemas except that their student prices are generously about half the price. You get much more for your money here, because their seats are very comfy and in one screen they actually have sofas you can sit on to watch the film.

The Tyneside also runs two places to drink, a stylish bar downstairs that serves cocktails and a cosy tearoom upstairs. The tearoom is a nice place during the day, selling the usual jacket potatoes and what not at cheap prices. The bar on the other hand is a great place to have a drink before or after watching your film in the evening.

Summary: Provided you want a foreign film, its the best
