MBO Cinemas launches a colourful cinematic addition to Batu Pahat town with the opening of a new 8-screen cineplex in Square One Mall, Johor.
Located at Level 3 of the recently opened mall next to Carrefour Hypermarket in Taman Flora Utama, the cineplex seats 1217 and outdoes the recent opening of Big Cinemas’ 7-screen outlet in Batu Pahat Mall and the long existing 3-screen GSC Summit Parade. This development makes it two new cinema outlets in two months for the booming Johor locale.
With present day movie characters and the old time faces of Hollywood adorning its walls, MBO Square One Batu Pahat brings the magic of cinema alive and gives audiences a chance to experience that timeless enjoyment of watching movies. The elaborate decor showcases poster-plastered ceilings and casino-style doors, along with faux chandeliers and intricate themes for each of its eight halls.
According to CEO and Managing Director of MBO Cinemas Mr. Toh Kim Hock: “We are a family-oriented cinema, aiming to bring the best to cities and towns that may not have the luxury of Kuala Lumpur settings. It’s amazing when you see people’s faces light up by simply looking at the bright lights we’ve put up to give cinemagoers that experience”.
MBO Chief Operating Officer Ikmal Nizam Ariffin added: “It really is a beautiful location. It’s like taking a timeless journey when you walk along the corridors to get to your hall.”
Like all the other MBO Cinemas outlets, we cater to the underprivileged by installing disabled-friendly facilities like easy-access ramps to all our halls.
MBO Cineplex assures our patrons and their families that cinemagoing satisfaction is our top priority. Now with our membership programme inline, patrons will have the comfort of purchasing their tickets at our kiosk machines with greater ease – no queues and definitely no hassle.
The MBO membership card also allows our valued patrons to enjoy discounted rates and other lifelong, member-only privileges.
At the concession counters, we take pride in being the first in Malaysia to introduce the eco-friendly MBO Brown Paper Bags for the purchase of our items. We do this in acknowledgement of our corporate responsibility for environmental preservation.
