As the weather turns colder and the nights draw in, there is no better time to cosy up with a great film at ODEON.
We’ve rounded up some of the top new picks to enjoy this month. Don’t forget ODEON have made lots of changes to bring you a safer cinema experience. From social distancing in their auditoriums and foyers to more frequent and more thorough cleaning routines, they’ve made sure the thrill of the big screen is as safe as possible for you and their teams.
Remember to book in advance – see the full list of movies (including the return of some big classics) and book your tickets.
CAT & DOGS: PAWS UNITE!

It’s been 10 years since the creation of the Great Truce, an elaborate joint-species surveillance system designed and monitored by cats and dogs to keep the peace when conflicts arise.
But when a tech-savvy villain hacks into wireless networks to use frequencies only heard by cats and dogs, he manipulates them into conflict, and the worldwide battle between cats and dogs is BACK ON.
Now, a team of inexperienced and untested agents will have to use their old-school animal instincts to restore order and peace between cats and dogs everywhere.
