The Invite

2026· 1h 47m

One dinner party. Two couples. All the tension.

A marriage on thin ice, mysterious neighbors, and a night that could ignite or implode — The Invite is tailor-made for date night. It's the kind of film that makes you glance sideways at your partner and quietly wonder what you'd do. Funny, tense, and charged with romantic-thriller energy, it leaves you with plenty to unpack over wine afterward.

Couple dynamics that hit close to home
Dinner-party tension with a dark comic edge
Romance, mystery, and sparks — all in one night

Showtimes & details

The Odyssey

The grandest love story ever told — going home.

At its heart, The Odyssey is about a man who will defy gods and monsters to return to the one he loves. It's mythic, visually breathtaking, and carries an emotional weight that sneaks up on you. At nearly three hours, it's a full evening's experience — arrive ready to be swept completely away.

Epic scale with genuine emotional stakes
Stunning visuals and a world to lose yourselves in
Plenty to discuss long after the credits roll

Moonrise Kingdom

First love, perfectly framed — but catch it fast.

Wes Anderson's Moonrise Kingdom is one of cinema's most charming love stories — twee, tender, and unexpectedly moving. If you haven't seen it together yet, this is a rare chance: screenings are very limited this week, likely just a single showing. A beautiful mood-setter for a romantic evening.

Wes Anderson's signature warmth and whimsy
Sweet, nostalgic, and genuinely moving
One screening only — don't wait to book
