I recently had the pleasure of visiting Century Cinemax, and I must say it was an absolute delight to watch the F&F X and CREED III!

First and foremost, the facilities at Century Cinemax are top-notch. The theater itself is spacious and comfortable, with plush seating that allows for a truly immersive movie experience.

The audio quality is outstanding, ensuring that every sound effect, dialogue, and musical score is crystal clear and enhances the overall movie-watching experience.

The staff members were attentive, ensuring that every moviegoer had a seamless experience. Their knowledge and passion for movies were evident, as they were more than willing to provide recommendations and answer any queries. Another aspect that impressed me was the cleanliness and upkeep of the theater. The cinema halls were spotless, and the seats were well-maintained, contributing to a comfortable and hygienic environment. Additionally, the concession stand offered a wide variety of snacks and beverages, allowing for a complete movie experience with delicious treats.

It's one of the oldest cinemas in Dar. Their best Cinema is cinema 1. Cinema 2 and 3 are not as large but okay. Their sound systems are great. The cinema management is not strict on people using phones during movies expect people a number of users sitting in the cinema to sit and scroll through their social media with intense lights which can be quite annoying and disruptive. Expect to also get confused by the numbering on their chairs as some seats have random numbers that is quite annoying too. The cinema is also not strict on making sure age ratings are followed as you might find yourself watching some movie with strong adult content with kids in attendance. If management worked on some of these issues the cinema would be a better experience for movie goers. The seats need to be replaced/updated soon or later. They are no longer comfortable. If the cinema is to keep pace and remain the premier provider of movie content in Dar es salaam, it's high time they begin looking into some of the issues pointed out.

  • Noah Stellazwonsky

Best screen in Tanzania a very cosy place that i can suggest anyone visit. The place is well organized offering a variety of products such as video games playing, watching live football and a small restaurant. The customer care service is also superb i loved it no complains about it. The environment is also very convenient even for the disabled there's a lift for them to access. Also, the cinema is divided meaning on different occasion one movie can have normal viewers and V.I.P viewers, the prices are moderate so as any individual can afford them. so mainly I can suggest this place to anyone who wants to visit it.

  • Joe Ndekia

For box office movies. This is the right place though they don’t show all latest movies on time. Cozy seats, best amazing sound, best video quality, 4K resolution for 2D & 3D movies. Stand by generators are not active. I experienced power cut 3 times but still my favorite place to watch movies . After movie they don’t wait for post credit / whole movie to finish they always turn on the lights, skip or cleaners interrupt. Snacks / drinks are expensive. Buy a combo coupon at the ticket counter are very fair. Affordable ticket price. Best deals are on Monday to Thursday (non public holidays).

  • Ibrahim Essajee

The best of cinemas in Daressalaam. Offering all latest movies Hollywood and Bollywood. First week tickets usually cost from 10000tsh to 12000tsh. Apart from first week all Thursdays you get student offer for 5000tsh. If it's 3D better get your own glasses as you can't rent here. You have to buy for 5000tsh. Sometimes I don't really enjoy the sound quality and can't understand the heavy sounds as there seems to be a bass sound.

  • Silvia Pastori

We went to watch a 3D movie, unfortunately the 3D did not work from the beginning and we had to wait 30 minutes to have it fixed. I recommend the staff not to play movies back to back in the same screen with just a 5 minutes break between each movie. But to double-check every time and give time to the projector to rest. This will prevent your projectors to get busted easily and will save you expenses.

  • Jones Nde'kia

this is one of the earliest cinemas from Century Cinemax, it is located at the mlimani city mall where everyone goes place that attracts trendy crowd especially on weekends, but since it is the oldest there some renovations need to be done so that the experience customers get here should be the one they get in Aura and also Mkuki Mall for the sake of having quality and good standards

  • Iddy Mwerangi

One of few places in Dar Es Salaam, where you can watch movies. It’s within Mlimani City Mall. Is good for outing with loved one. Is a place you can watch latests movies. Adequate parking with full security. Varieties of ATM and mobile operators are within walking distance where you can access cash at anytime. In short is safe, secure and elegant place.

  • Muhammad Sherally

The movies! We all love the cinemas, several convinient locations, and the movie night is not complete without the caramel popcorn. Sometimes there are rats and the service by some of the employees at the ticket desks and the snack bar is poor, they sometimes give you attitude for no reason. Otherwise, …

  • Essau panja

I enjoyed the place. Good movies and affordable prices convinces alot of people to continue comyback again and again The services rendered are also very excellent for all ages from kids to adults, male to female, just a wonderful place to go on movie dates or just family outings including a night out with friends

  • Gido Pluto

Milimani city Cinemax had a third-party event with DStv, but their website doesn't inform you of this.So me and my friends from multiple locations ended up wasting alot of money on transport to come here just for the manager to tell us it is not their fault, despite there not being a warning about this problem.

  • Francis Nyalali (Junior)

Great movies on show although they take a while to update their content. Also it'd be nice if people actually followed their seat numbers. I bought two seats on the same row just to find that people were already sitting on them and didn't see any other seats that were together, they should be strict about this.

  • Mirambo Paul

They claim to have the largest screen yet in east africa... but sadly the humongous screen shows awful color fringe which ruined my experience. For a Filmophilia like myself that is the one thing i kept seing throughout the movie really killed my vibe. May be will give the place a 4 star rate when they fix it.

  • Ibra Fivawo

It was Good, for some reason I believe the sound was high though, I feel this every time I visit, but all in all the screen is huge, the experience was awesome, it can be challenging at times for some one to locate one's allocated seat, so I think the attendants should always be on the look out to assist.

  • Luke Ilomo

The cinema is big and looks okay but it was slightly warmer inside than usual for a cinema luckily it wasn't full. Also the cinema had a weird strong smell inside that was difficult to get used to as If the seats were having mold or something luckily the movie I was watching was worth the pain inside.

  • julius gwalama

Cozy venue, no personal food or drinks allowed inside but get grab some at the entrance. Most movies are in 3D, the price is usually 10k per movie and 5k for the 3D glasses incase you don't have them.. It could get a bit more cold at the back for someone not used to or doesn't enjoy the cold …

  • Elly Tech

It's is a leading Cinema/ Movie hall in Dar es Salaam situated alongside Sam Nujoma road just as you part to University of Dar es Salaam. A great center, great car parking too. The place is in the shopping mall there for you have quite go n' grab choices just in case you need something quick.

  • Sharhonda Rivera

I’ve been going to this theater for about a year now. Movie quality is good. The service is ok. The prices sometimes change depending on the movie. There are some snacks for purchase. I’d love to see some nachos! They offer 3D movies which is great. I hope the screen quality improves some.

  • MarekHoletzki

Sadly had not that good experience. We looked "The Monster Hunter" it should be in room 2 but we got moved to smaller room 3. The screen was realy blurry (you nearly couldn't read the text if something was written). The sound was waaay to loud (loud effects are not a quality feature).

  • Mar io G

Avatar 2 watched on Christmas day, great experience in 3D! Every movie should be made like this one. Clean toilets, can be maintained more as some toilets weren’t working, security staff great, sale staff also great fun with them and all in all great day we had. Thank you!

  • Isaac Liu

Excellent value, especially for the 3d movies. They're the same price as regular movies if you keep a pair of glasses. The seating reservations and reserving using the app Otapp sometimes don't work very well. Nice to be able to see Hollywood hits in Tanzania.

  • Michael Mwanganya

I love the place its great place nice and amazing movies..popcorn and more food stuffs to enjoy while watching movies, it has the largest screen for movie enjoyment..you would love to visit this place whether alone with friends or family you wont get bored.

  • Sunny Lathia

The Aura mall Century cinemax is the best of all the 3 available, The Century cinemax in DFM and in Milimani city is not clean, smells bad in the theater and is lacking maintenance, perhaps if taken care of viewers can feel comfortable and enjoy the movie

  • Steve AI

The men's bathrooms are in a very bad state .... I was even scared to go for the risk of infection.... for the money we pay here for the movies, the least they can do is have proper bathroom. Popcorn and drinks at the movies are way too expensive....

  • Collins Kahema (COLLO)

Went to see Infinity war, was impressed with the new booking service for hadn't been there in years. Not so sure about the theatre though I think they need new improvements, All in all had a great time, Best in town for movie screenings. Recommended

  • arerphert _01

The place is cozy with fancy areas and things like video games and big screen cinemas. It's the place you'll never regret visiting while in Dar es salaam. Don't get frustrated of a place to watch new released movies because it's the place.

  • Rehema Eledina

Awesome. Snacks are quite expensive like every other cinema in dar. If your watching a 3d movie I suggest coming with your own glasses coz the ones they sell are not worth the money in my experience. Besides that customer service is good. …

  • Danny Dworks (Zanzibar photographer)

Best cinema space in tanzania these guys are up to date having fair price on days like Monday and Thursday helps many to have fun and relax at low cost also in love with there service to clients its a place to be you wont regret being here

  • Ann Marie Salem

All the latest movies shown here. The best Movie Theater in Tanzania. Wish they had more fun movie snacks though. And an app to book tickets online as sometimes movies are sold out and you cant know until you get there.

  • Nevis Amani

Beautiful, the place is amazing quite and a goo for a family outing. Watching kinda of movies with family or baby mama. Screen is big the sound is perfect, chair are comfortable. It hard to leave after a movie is over.

  • David Msia

Becomes worse and more expensive I must say sadly. Went to watch bullet train 2022, they got rid of the combos on popcorns and soda, the seat are tone and smelly, numbers on cine 3 the whole row G aren't visible.

  • Eqbal Rajesh

This movie theatre has the most wide screen in all of east africa. Which enhances the experience when watching a movie, i highly recommend you to come and watch Avengers endgame in 3d you will surely enjoy it....

  • Pandah Tz

Nice movie place in mliman city the screen is nice and hd and love the sound system of this cinemax I don’t know about the 3d glasses which they used to have where are they or why there not available anymore

  • Michael Nicholls

A bit dirty, but fine for a movie with the kids. Before our movie started there was a long screeching noise that went on for minutes with no intervention by staff. Otherwise, it's a pretty normal cinema.

  • LosAngeles Made

Smells bad, movie screen is very blurry. However large screen good movie reasonable price. The wet carpet smell is gross and it’s pretty hot in here also. Not terrible but not good either. Just okay

  • Esther Masiamete

Nice place for movies and hanging always showcases the latest movie , but wouldn't suggest to go to the early showing, cause service can be slow the best time would be afternoon …

  • Neema Mende

This movie theatre has the biggest screen in East africa. Which enhances the experience when watching a movie, i highly recommend you to come and watch movie here.... you will enjoy …

  • semahal charlie

I love this place, especially in the evening because it is close to lots of fast food points, so I can eat first and go catch a movie later in the evening when its very calm and nice.

  • H the Dj

Always the best place to watch a big picture. Superb service. Comfortable. Good sounds. I wish the commercials were regulated quality wise. Always too loud and simply bad production.

  • Hiren Pandya

The biggest cinema in East Africa! Very good service & management. They have changed some seats which is an improvement. Some seats are still the same, which needs to be replaced.

  • Aswin Maroli

Nice Theater and Ticket price is also cheap but they need to find a solution to overcome sudden powercut issues,Its really killing the flow and continuation of the movie

  • Elias Laleo

They could do better with their audio. Wasn't a great experience the last movie I watched there TENET. But they've been my go to place for movies on the big screen.

  • Ferdnand Fred

Changed Alot Screen keeps turning off in between Movies Was watching THOR Love and Thunder and every time the screen goes off and takes up to 20 minutes throughout

  • Joangela

Theater was not clean. Pop Corn machine needed cleaning also. Went to see Avatar in 3D and the 5000tsh glasses did not work. So had to watch the movie in a blur.

  • Ruqaiyyah Almar

The screens are big. And the snack booth is well stacked. Loved that carmel popcorn is back but the slushies need to be frozen right now they are barely cold

  • Anna Ben

Cool place so far...however they should control the air conditioning depending on the number of people in the theatre...sometimes its freezing in there....

  • Farida Mukhi

It is easy to buy tickets ..you can even buy them through your phone...the air conditioner levels are optimal compared to other theaters ( too cold)

  • David Mshana

It's amazing, the room itself the screen is high quality so is the sound,, I totally recommend for anyone who haven't visited this place to do so.

  • Eva Mhina

It was a nice place to be, the Theatre is good and other services like the small shops for popcorn but the toilets are not in good condition.

  • John Makune

Great place... they should also consider a shift in their snacks... healthier snacks would be highly appreciated by more in this day and age

  • Ryan Swai

The experience is always incredible, the vibe when a big movie comes out is one of a kind. I Definitely do recommend to watch movies here.

  • Tina Mgonja

The service is fast and the sound system is spot on! And they are incredibly up to date on the upcoming movies and cater to ll genres

  • David Mboya

Loved it. A sensentional experience. No photos allowed but once a tourist one can ask for the chance. Halal, no phoney activities

  • Genoveva Odoyo

The female toilets are disappointing needs improvement, but they are atleast better than the ones on DFM century cinema . …

  • Catherine Collins

Couldn't enjoy movie at all as the quality was so bad. Surprised at this as the movies I've seen before has always been optimum.

  • Rogers peter

The screen is big with clear pictures and the sound system is amazing, but the chairs ain't that clean and there's a dusty aroma

  • Brian Noel

If movie is 3D please indicate also answer your DMs from Instagram especially mlimani city since the phone number isn't working

  • Don Kim

It's a nice place to catch up on new movies, especially since most come out way before major countries in the world.

  • ian barrett

Nice and comfortable but would recommend getting seats towards the rear of the cinema if it is a 3D screening.

  • Jabroni

Very cheap (5000TSH per person) and nice atmosphere. Although we perceived the sound as way too loud...
