Film Listings for June 1 - 7
With the four day holiday weekend ahead, there are plenty of films opening in NW6. From blockbusters to Cannes prize winners to free outdoor screenings. If you are planning on seeing Prometheus it is worth looking around the cinemas as there are a range of options available (IMAX, 3D, 2D etc.). For instance Everyman Maida Vale has it in 3D but Everyman Hampstead has it in 2D.

Prometheus* (2D) (2012, sci-fi horror, 124 mins)
Eagerly awaited sci-fi from Ridley Scott. Details have been thin on the ground but looks to be Alien related, if not quite a full prequel. Potentially one of the films of 2012, although fair to say early reviews have been mixed.
