Pop-up cinema screening of Planet Of The Apes at Whiteleys Shopping Centre. The Nomad Cinema presents the new Hollywood remake for a bargain £8 per ticket.

There are some films that need to be remade again and again until a watchable movie emerges. This year’s almost-a-prequel-but-not-quite is the latest and greatest of the Planet Of The Apes strand. Deliberately billed as a prequel so as to avoid comparisons to the more questionable, past attempts at this story, this film shocked critics by actually being half-decent. There’s a lot more science than fiction and everything is a little bit more believable. James Franco puts in a good turn as a boffin with a big, animal-loving heart and Freida Pinto fills the standard attractive female spot nicely. And there’s a reeeally cute baby monkey. Aww.

This winter The Nomad Cinema takes up residence at Whiteleys Shopping Centre, screening a mixture of recent releases and classic films from all eras.

* This new pop-up cinema concept, created by FITCH and The Nomad, can be found in the space vacated by Books Etc.

* Cinematic décor comes courtesy of an exhibition of vintage film posters from The Reel Picture Company.

* The Vestal Vodka pop-up bar will serve curated cocktails, wine, beer and popcorn, with ice cream available from the Oddono’s Gelati stall (only food and drink bought on site is allowed in the cinema).

* The most unusual cinema seating you’ll ever experience includes beanbags, inflatable wedges, directors chairs and swinging benches, plus there’s tiered seating for the more traditional among you.

*And if you spend £10 or more at one of Whiteleys’ restaurants, you’ll be given a voucher that can be exchanged for one free cinema ticket (subject to availability).
