The Philippines’ 7th IMAX Theater opens at SM Aura Premier

SM Aura is now open and many are amazed with the structure and the store inside it. Located in the posh district of Bonifacio Global City, the mall is another great attraction  for those who have sophisticated taste. And what is a mall without a movie house?

SM Cinema made sure that on the opening of the new mall comes with a one of a kind cinema that is unique only in SM Aura. SM Opened its latest IMAX Theater here which is a great treat for movie goers who live in East Metro Manila.

In The launch, we were able to see how the new IMAX looks like and how well does it fair with the other IMAX theaters in the metro. The verdict is we did love this one even it is a little smaller compared with the others but still gives the audience a complete and intimate image and sound experience. The lobby also has a great view of the BGC skyline before you enter the cinema.

SM Cinema Aura is set to redefine entertainment as it becomes one of the most anticipated features in the new SM Aura Premier. Unveiling on May 17, 2013, SM Cinema Aura houses two Director’s Club Cinemas with 48 seats each, a perfect venue for small gatherings and corporate events, and two digital theaters equipped with Dolby Atmos, a revolutionary sound technology that uses overhead and surround speakers, for a natural and a more realistic sound experience.

REEL DEAL: Fast and the Furious 6 REVIEW

Fast and Furious 6 has been well loved with all of those cars, cars and even more cars. Which most of them ended up crashed or blown up (*cry*). And now on its 6th installment made another interesting turn when one of the family their thought was dead turned up alive.

With an international mastermind Owen Shaw on the loose, armed with weapons and also fast tough cars that par with the group of Dom (Vin Diesel), the clash becomes ugly, destructive and dangerous.

Fast and Furious 6 is also special as it held its Asian premiere  here in the Philippines. With an explosive entrance and warm welcome from the Filipino people, the cast had a blast in enjoying the unveiling of the movie in this part of South East Asia. 

Though it will not be the last of the franchise, there is still more and you have to wait for it at the end credits.
