Cineworld Cinema - Staples Corner

Originally this was planned by Cineplex-Odeon, but it opened as the Cannon Staples Corner on 4th January 1991. Taken over by Virgin Cinemas in 1995 it was re-branded Virgin and then taken over by Union General Cinematographique(UGC), it again recieved a re-branding.

It is located in the Staples Corner Retail Park, just a short distance south of Brent Cross Shopping Centre, across the North Circular Road in the northwest London district of Cricklewood.

In 2005 the current name of Cineworld was added to the building. The Cineworld was closed on 14th August 2016. It has become a gaming arcade & trampoline park named FlipOut.

This cinema on several accounts has seriously suffered since the opening of Cineworld Wembley in October 2013, with dated facilities and extreme absence of customers – on my last few visits there in 2014-15 I’ve mostly had the entire screen to myself. On one occasion the film wasn’t started at all, another time it was randomly moved to another screen with no notification from staff, meaning the audience sat in a silent screen for several minutes only for another customer to inform them the film had actually started several minutes earlier in another screen.

Can’t see it lasting long although it does have free parking, and if quiet cinemas are your thing it’s worth checking out.
