Some people say that now we can see films on our phones or tablets there is no need to go to the cinema. Others say that to be fully enjoyed, films need to be seen in a cinema. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

A highly controversial topic today relates to whether watching movies at the

cinema

is necessary to fully appreciate the

film

or if it is possible to have a satisfactory

experience

using our phones or tablets at home. In

this

essay, I am going to look at the positive and negatives aspects of both points of view, and try to make some conclusions based on my ideas. There are people who argue that the benefits of going to the

cinema

considerably outweigh its disadvantages. The main reason for believing

this

is that cinemas today offer an immersive

experience

using big three-dimensional screen and comfortable seats that make the spectator feel as he was in the picture himself. Another good reason why people defend going to the

cinema

is that it is

also

an opportunity for a small change of pace in our lives, and, as a consequence, our brain will automatically be more focused to fully savour the

experience

.

On the other hand

, watching a

film

in a

cinema

can be expensive. The price can be prohibitive especially for those believe that eating popcorn is a must in the process of appreciating a show. Another negative aspect would be the risk of reserving a seat at a bad location or having someone tall in front of you blocking your view. Watching a movie at home using a tablet or a smartphone can be a game-changer for those who value comfort and flexibility. In

this

case, you can watch the

film

at a time and date that suits you the best.

Also

, since you can pause the video at any time, you won't miss any of it while going to the bathroom.

This

can be crucial to understand the

film

.

For example

, I once went to the

cinema

, went to the bathroom in the middle of the presentation and missed a very crucial dialogue which impacted negatively the way I interpreted the whole movie.

Finally

, another advantage is that you can make your own popcorn or eat your favourite food. In conclusion, I believe both options have their merits. On balance,

however

, my opinion is that going to the

cinema

provides more enjoyment than seeing the

film

on our tablets.

This

is because of the immersive

experience

and the change of pace.
