Vie Show Cinemas Taipei Qsquare

As a former movie theater manager, I have to say that the facilities here are fairly good. There's nothing too modern, however it appears that all the theaters are probably digital, with stadium seating. The concession area is functional and with decent prices in my opinion. The staff are as competent as any other movie theater you might go to. The only thing that I don't like, and this is probably a cultural difference between American theaters and Taiwanese theaters, is that seats are reserved. Personally, I like buying a ticket and being able to choose whichever seat I like the best, or is farthest away from another loud patron.

It is a nice theater, but Google Pay, Apple Pay, and Samsung pay did not work on their credit card machines, even though their machines said they take those forms of payment. I showed up for the 9:20am showing of the movie Tenet and their machines did not take my Google Pay or credit card. There was a long line to purchase a ticket using cash, and if I would have waited on that line, I would have missed the showing at that time. I did not get to see the movie, and I will probably never come back.

The location is unbeatable, very near Taipei Main Station, so you can take both MRT blue line or red line to get here. It takes some time to wait for the elevator though. The tip is to go downstairs to B3, then you'll have better chance to get into elevator all the way to 4F, where the cinema is located. They just change the seats recently, much comfortable than the old ones. 京站威秀的交通太方便了，而且最近換了座椅頗舒服。

Overall 4/5 Vie Show Cinemas Taipei Qsquare 臺北京站威秀影城 Movie theatre at the top of Q-Square Mall. Tickets are about NT$330 per adult but the facilities are very clean and modern. I've experienced issues at a variety of theatres in Taiwan with seat comfort, temperature and noise from other customers eating. That wasn't a problem here so I enjoyed the film.

Very nice clean stadium seating. Atmosphere a little too dark for my tastes. I'm not super confident in the abilities of the young looking staff. I wouldn't be surprised if some kind of snafu happens because they're young and stupid. Second time here and everything has been fine so far...

Nice size theater, comfortable seats with enough legroom, great sound quality. Good to have a proper theater experience again.

Tried to watch "Everything Everywhere" here last night in theater 8, sitting torwards the front. As soon as the pre-film showings began, it was obvious that the speaker levels weren't adjusted correctly. The highs were at a very uncomfortable decibel level above the others, and the lows were almost non-existent. I told staff right away before the film started. They said they'd report it. The film began and it continued to be very bad. I reported it again when the problem became exacerbated by a part of the film with more treble, and the staff told me that management said it was normal, that other people had complained about that part of the film as well, but basically that they were choosing to ignore it. It was as if they both weren't listening and didn't care, as I'd already reported the problem before that part of the film showed. The issue was extremely obvious, only a film-idiot wouldn't be able to notice the audio issues. It was so bad that the film was in effect unwatchable. I only braved through it, keeping my fingers near my ears to cover them for some parts, because I was very excited for the film, but I definitely regret staying. I didn't get a voucher for another film because I'll never be back here. The Xinyi Vieshow also has issues like this, so I'm assuming it's a company-wide problem.

INCONVENIENT, FRUSTRATING, OVERPRICED. It's unreasonably difficult to get to (most of the stairs, escalators, and elevators in the mall don't actually go up to vie show, so it takes 20 minutes just to find the theater), with terrible signage in and out of the theater. Why would elevators post that the theater is on floors 5 and 6, then you wait 5 minutes for an elevator to finally come only to find that it only goes to 4. Then in the theater, there are signs pointing to non-existent bathrooms, and the wheelchair bathroom is disgusting, plus you can't tell whether the door locks. Well below the quality of other theaters in Taiwan. Would rather miss out on a movie than go back. Plus, 360 NTD for 1 ticket plus processing fee? What a rip off!
