There is almost always something I want to see at this cinema. The last film was Mud, which was terrific - I didn't realise Matthew McConaughey could act. The cinema is hidden behind a normal Victorian terrace facade but when you go in, you find a modern space which includes two screens, a bar, a small theatre, mainly used for... More

If you are more interested in a good story rather than all action then this is the place to go. They have a nice bar and the cinema seats are very comfortable.

We love the QFT. It's great location first of all means you can eat out after or before your meal. QFT shows classics, new and old and offers a bar where you can buy wine/beer/coffee etc. we have seen some great foreign films here and go every Xmas to see White Chrsitmas for old times sake! Higghly recommended,

QFT is a hidden gem in Belfast. I've passed by it many times without knowing. Definitely well worth a visit for something a little different than the usual cinema.

I have been going to the Queens Film Theatre for over twenty years and have alway loved the diversity of their shows and films and I am glad to see that this hasnt changed with the opening of the new theatre. Very well designed, great use of space, not one bad seat in the house.

QFT is a bit of an institution, have been going since the mid 80s, great atmosphere, especially at recent viewing of 'Good Vibrations'. Nice bar for pre cinema drink or coffee. A piece of Belfast history.

At least 25 years since last in QFTand it has certainly changed for the better! It was always the place to see interesting films, but it is now on University square (my memory involved a dim alley off Botanic Avenue) and a great venue. Good bar, quirky films and generally rather fab. Love the 'live link' work to other venues... More
