A small but good mall with probably the best cinema in Karachi. Has all the major brands of Pakistan. Nueplex Cinema is the cinema where all most all movie premiers of Pakistani movies are held. I visit it regularly always the first choice in watching a movie, their food court could have been better though.

One of the best multiplexes in Karachi. Although a long distance from main city but still a class of its own. Nice clean seating however the floor needs some attention. Not carpeted but it should be clean to a level so as not to be sticky. Pricing is more than all the cinemas in Karachi both for the movie as well the snacks.

Watched Frozen 2 with my daughter yesterday before having flight the same day. Wonderful memory and very nice cinema screen. Cinema no 2 is biggest screen I guess. Sound system was just OK.People have no knowledge of cinema ethics. One family ruined our movie by continuous striking our seat from back side.Food is super expensive here and I dont know why people still have to pay for 3D glasses after expensive movie tickets. Glasses are not worth buying very cheap material.Bathroom was clean. Valet parking is quiet good and cheap. Overall experience is satisfying.

Watching a movie can be a memorable experience and this is something I can positively say about Nueplex. Multiple food outlets on three floors and courteous staff to assist you would mark each visit as a worthwhile time spent there. Air-conditioned halls are just comfy; neither too cold nor too stuffy in winters. A thumbs up for Nueplex!

I experienced the open air cinema for the first time yesterday evening. What a wonderful experience! The recliners were comfy, the blankets provided (I was there at the night ) were warm and smelled clean and fresh. The ushers were attentive when they were there. Only downside was my headphones ran out of charge towards the end of the movie and I missed part of it. I tried to look for the usher but they werent to be found. Also the ushers chatted quite a bit distracting me from hearing the movie and the phone rang 5 or 6 times which was distracting as well. I did tell the usher to keep the other servers quiet but they started up again.

The best place to watch all the latest movies. They do have snack corner which offers you everything from all types of popcorn to nachos but the only problem is the high pricing of the all the food items!!! You do get discounts on credit card.(HBL 10%)

I loved the comfort and the spacing of the seating. Went to watch Bad Boys for Life and the voice/sound quality was pretty good and had an enjoyable and premium experience.The place though has confusing navigation for a first timer since they close certain exits.

Nueplex Cinemas is a movie theatre and the largest Cinema Complex located in Karachi, Pakistan. Housed on the second floor of The Place, built from the ground up and designed by cinema Architects Mesbur & Smith of Canada. Comprising 5 theatres, totalling 1200 seats and home to the 3 largest silver screens in Pakistan across the country..

The place is nicely made. Very crowded on weekends. Parking facility is ample in the surrounding areas. Food court has four or five nice options. Children enjoy the merry go round. The bumper cars are also a nice addition to the place. The movie tickets have now become expensive. Overall a nice addition to karachis scene. Shopping options there keep changing as brands are coming and going.

Review №45

The place is a shopping mall located in a relatively quiet and secluded neighbourhood of dha phase 7. The biggest attract this mall has to offer is Nueplex Cinemas. The cinema is arguably the best movie theatre in Karachi. Its large screens accompanied with great acoustics and sound system offers a great cinematic experience.Apart from the cinema the mall is a relatively quite place with not much crowd. Some well known brands have their presence here but in general it lacks the buzz to pull massive crowds.The food court is small with limited options available. Even on weekends and holidays there is very thin crowd here.The mall also offers a ride, like most parts of the mall this ride doesnt see many visitors.Overall most people will visit here only for the cinemas, and will check out the mall while killing time before the start of their movies.

The Place is a large entertainment complex that was launched in 2013 right in the midst of DHA phase VIII. It promises a wide variety of recreational activities that keep the entire family engaged as they are not exclusively for kids.It has the largest cinema in Karachi, Nueplex Cinema on the second floor which has been built by world’s renowned architects. It hosts five state of the art screens with world class technology. This cinema has provided a platform for the local film industry to grow. Furthermore, this initiative also encouraged local film makers and investors to invest in large budget film making since the target audience increased exponentially. This in turn has resulted in creation of jobs for the young generation in the film industry.Before the inauguration of this recreational mall DHA phase VIII only had minimal recreational options for families. This is in great contrast to today as this area continues to attract large number of families from various corners of the city. In addition to this, the area under discussion has also witnessed a hike in real estate value since Place has added a multitude of pull factors for denizens in this vicinity.It is evident that the planners of The Place/Nueplex exercised a great degree of foresight since they took a large risk by dedicating such an immense investment to entertainment industry. Additionally, the complex boasts of high standard maintenance and maximum security for the visitors.Trip Advisor is used by most wary Pakistanis and foreigners to read reviews about various places before they visit them. It is interesting to note that it has rated The Place/Nupelex as 4.5 on a scale of 0 to 5. Individuals no longer need to travel long distances within the city or around the world to have an amazing cinematic experience as soon as their favorite movie is released.Similar projects need to be supported by the government and related authorities so that there is greater investment in the entertainment industry and Pakistan is featured in international news for positive reasons.One of the primary lure for families is The Place’s Drop Tower (tallest in Karachi), an exciting carousal for kids, and thrilling bumper cars. The Place continues to attract even those individuals who are not too keen on entertainment due to its sprawling shopping mall that houses top brands. Moving on, it also has a spacious food court that caters to the tastes of a wide range of visitors as it not only has fast food and desi options but also features health conscious options.In an effort to retain old and attract new clientele The Place continues to improvise. For example, it has opened up rooftop restaurants that boast picturesque views and pleasing ambience for visitors that are looking for an extra ordinary experience. It will not be an exaggeration to say that The Place/ Nupelex is on the go to list of every Karachite who considers himself/herself social.

Total of 5 cinemas located within Nueplex with sufficient leg space, comfortable seats and massive screens along with 1 royal cinema with fully reclining seats and butler service. Wide variety of snacks available from nachos, mixed popcorn, hotdogs to name a few and they taste great too! It is somewhat on the outskirts of the city but now theyve opened up another cinema on Rashid Minhas Road.

Review №61

Had a good and enjoyable time . Now days the theater are almost empty . İ think this is because of the Neuplex at Askari 4 . Now there is no more over crowding .Had a comfortable time there .BUTİt was not clean .The glass holders had junk residue .One most important thing to critique :They have pathetic Popcorns cause they use low grade cooking oil rather than using butter .At price of Rs.240 / for the regular popcorn they can afford to use high quality products .So for that i would give them thumbs downThis why i would give 3 stars to them .Otherwise it would have been 5 stars.

I like this cinema. The one thing it misses though is selection at the food counter. There are no bags of sweets/chocolates or ice creams like when I am in the UK. Variety would be nice. Maybe allow a coffee shop franchise to open up inside to allow a better selection of coffee/hot drinks.

We went to watch Spider man far from home because we were also in the same situation but luckily there was no Mysterio after us.Nice location and great weather outside the place due to its close proximity with the sea.I think they should Install a screen that can broadcast more vivid colours and sound quality seriously needs some attention.I would recommend this place if you are ok with the above issues.

Review №77

Nice and huge cinema. Try to take Cimena 1, 6 and cinema 8 only as they are quite big and concave screen, due to this, it will give you the value for your money. Other screen sizes are not bad but they are small as compared to these three cinemas screens. So its better to plan for three cinema screen which has got bigger sizes and thus giving excellent viewing experience. As fat as the parking is concerned, there is only charged valet parking that costs around 100 rupees per car. Plan to go 30 minutes before the start of the showtime otherwise due to long parking queues, you might miss the initial show time. Better to be there 30 minutes before.

The Place, mall is also good.. but Nueplex Cinema is one of the best in Karachi. Watched both movies here 2D and 3D. Atmosphere, Screen, Sound system, & seats are too good. Only wash room cubicles are too small, but maintenance is also excellent. If you are hungry then not to worry all international and local food branches are in mall.

Entertainment PlazaThe Place is a new entertainment plaza with movie cinemas, restaurants, a few shops and a some games. Its an interesting concept that attracts a crowd primarily because of the cinemas that run till late night. The bumper cars and the drop deliver some additional thrill while you wait for the movies. There is a decent choice of fast food restaurants at The Place as well. Karachi is lucky to this Entertainment Plaza!

Review №81

Saw the movie in the Royal hall. Great seats. Each seat is a sofa recliner and you feel like you are sitting in your home drawing room. A nice clean plastic wrapped blanket is also provided. Food service is provided at your seat from efficient and courteous waiters and a nice table with every seat is also available to put your food rather then balance it in your lap. The only down side is the metal bar (between rows of seats) which spoils your view of the very bottom of the screen if you fully recline. And perhaps the sound was painfully loud. Nice addition as a luxury cinema in Karachi. Reminds me of cinema experience in Dubai

Review №82

Best Movie Place. Near See View Beach.The price is Affordable. It’s located in upper town. Mostly people go to watch movies here and it’s also a good shoping market. Its safe place. Timing is also favourable for people. If you are travel you must visit at least one time to this place. You will experience world class cinematic experience.-Be aware if you are price conscious person must ask for price of food item in side cinema because it’s very expensive.I hope you will enjoy there.

Its the best cinema in Karachi. Not just by tech standard, also by the quality of services.Its located at the corner of the city, but gentry from across the city come to this Place to watch movies. Very good family environment, and The Place mall has a very good food court as well as designated smoking area.Keep it up guys, I suggest you build a more bigger cinema with IMAX 3D screen.

So
Review №87

The place is small yet always a place i like going too. Not too crowded, all you can think of is there. The cinema is top notch and not to forget the cleanliness, sparkles everytime you go. However, they can certainly place helpful staff to guide customers where to park instead of letting them find a spot out on the street and walk yards and yards on their way back. The valet is good but it has limited staff. Some directions to a parking lot may be useful.
