As it has become a problem to keep up with the changes in the Hamburg cinema World, we have added this extra search option via Google to help combat the problem of closed cinemas, website changes, websites only in German and lack of films in English. This option is not an answer to the problems, but may help. The results will vary each time you use it, if used weekly. If you find this page, and you are elsewhere, click the links and change ''Hamburg'' to your German location - you may have some luck |

| Grindelallee UFA Closed -
|
June 2008 | Possible last minute investment, from a cinema investor, may save Grindel even though it has been closed since March 2008. The cinema could become the first 3D cinema in Hamburg.

March 2008 - Grindel closed down - search below for alternatives. We'll leave the other infos here for a while to see if plans to save the cinema bear fruit - see below - ''Save Grindel'' above is also in English. The way we see it, is that there has been a real lack of good films for at least three years or more. It must be very difficult for a cinema to make a profit!
Nov 2006 - Grindel Kino might stop showing films in English !
Please read and sign if possible!! We need your signature. Thanks to Meghan for organising this and for passing this on. http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/GrindelMovies
Earlier: The English Cinema near the main train station closed down before Grindel took over.

| 21.03.2005 - The original Grindel links no longer lead to any info about films in English yet again, therefore we have removed them rather than try to keep up with the changes. There is an odd badly designed new website, which the translation tool from Google cannot cope with. Please click the German website and search for films with OV. We assume that the cinema has changed hands. We would appreciate any reports of any problems or dead links (click). Thank you and have a nice time |
| SNEAK PREVIEW UFA: Mondays 21:00. From 18 years old only - phone to confirm (info from 2003) |

| Abaton cinema has a special programme which is difficult to represent on this website. Some films are only on once, on one day. We suggest you visit the website, For a review of each film on the Abaton website please select link number 2 above, or if you understand German, each film is reviewed on the Abaton website - link number 1. Link number 4 is not the Abaton site and has film reviews |
| When on the Abaton site, you will find the films and times in the left-hand column, in the form of grey buttons (2004). Each button has the time the film will be shown written on it. Scroll down for further times and buttons |

| Guide to the above links |
| The cinemas above show films in English. Many films shown in Germany have been dubbed into German, which is acceptable in Germany - unlike the UK, for example |
| The websites above are not available in English, therefore we have put them through a translation tool, if technically possible. Only rough translations are possible and as such we suggest you open the German and the translated versions. Oddly enough the reviews of most of the films, which are shown in English are written in German so we have supplied links to other websites with reviews in English |

| Does pirating increase takings? Many reports say yes... Could the music and film industry use piracy methods to increase sales, instead of spending millions on tackling it - could they steer it, instead of banning it? What do you think? Many unknown songs have gained popularity through piracy and songs which have been impossible to get, such as the original long versions of disco and club hits, have enjoyed the light of day again, after being left to gather dust by blinkered music company policy which is much worse in Germany.

| Tips for German Cinemas |
If you book in advance, you have to collect your tickets 30 minutes before the film starts, or else they will be sold. At busy times the queues are very long and the 30 minute rule starts from when you eventually get to the ticket counter and not when you arrive in the building. Queueing for popcorn etc can take a long time. All in all, it pays to get there 45 minutes in advance, with or without pre-booked tickets. If you do not have tickets and the film is fully booked 45 minutes beforehand, try queueing again 30 minutes before the film starts, as many reserved tickets could be available again. This is not always possible
The German words and abbreviations for "English version" to look for on websites and in newspapers are: 1. Originalfassung (OF) 2. In der Englischen Fassung 3. engl. OmU = original English version with for example German subtitles. Take care, sometimes the films are in French, Swedish and Italian etc - look for "engl." on the Abaton website for example. 4. OmeU = English subtitles and the soundtrack is in a variety of other languages
Films in English are sometimes shown for a duration of one week only at UFA. Occasionally longer. It is not unknown for a film to be on for one week and then again 2 weeks later, but that is more the exception than the rule
Some people ignore the fact that seat numbers are printed on the tickets, which often causes a lot of disturbance when late-comers arrive and want to sit on those seats. We also recommend taking a small torch/flashlight with you in case the lights are turned down. The adverts are generally 20 minutes long at the beginning, which can increase or decrease, depending on the popularity of the film - The German version of Lord of the Rings had 40 mins of ads & trailers, plus a break in the middle! |

12th September 2002: There is a shop for English videos in Hamburg, but sadly they do not want to be on this website, even free of charge. As such, we hope you appreciate that we cannot answer any more questions about the location and the videos. |
