I am reguler visitor ot the UGC in sheffield and i have a ugc unlimited card.It is one of the best cinemas i have ever been to, there is a wider choice of films, more leg room and the biggest screen in Sheffield.Also they have top class refreshments and food, all though they are quite pricey the nachos and cheese... more

8/10 Although its not the best cinema in England, for me it is as close as i can get without travelling half the country. I visit the cinema often simply because its the best in the area. It all goes on area for me - of course there are other cinemas in the area. But for me The UGC in... more

UGC cinemas are the place to go if you want to see new films immediately after their premieres in the London's West End. My experience there has been pleasant, getting a good view unobstructed by other people's heads, and the volume of sound was just right (unlike some other cinemas). I was so comfortable in the UGC cinema last week... more

So the staffing levels are a bit bad at the moment, who cares, The Full Monty (praise be to Richard Branson and Virgin for this) is just sooooooo perfect for epic films and virtually all the other screens would still knock spots off other cinema's "Main" screens.

When this cinema first opened as a "Virgin" cinema, it was fantastic. Some THX screens and top quality picture and sound in all screens. Since UGC have taken over, they have not bothered renewing the THX licence and the maintenance of the equipment seems to be very poor. As an ex-projectionist myself I know what work needs to be done... more

Don't bother phoning up because you'll be waiting forever. The staffing issue actually works to your advantage because you quite easily move from film to film if... more

I've been going to the ugc cinema since it was owned by richard branson and it saddens me to say it, but it has really gone down hill fast. Like the other reviewers say, you can get into the screens free-despite being a unlimited card holder and having a ticket, I have done this several times and I still have... more

i totally agree the staffing levels are terrible there is never anyone at the refreshment counter and the ice cream is no go area last time i managed to buy one a passing cleaner served me! yes i agree that people can go in any screen for free as no one takes your tickets but i pay a tenner a... more

Basically all I shoul add to the above review is that youll find that the cinema is very under staffed. And this does cause problems. However this allows you to walk straight into antoehr film showing without paying :-) more
