【一起闲话英语】去电影院—Going to the cinema

Transcript: 

Tamara:  Hi, Mario. Do you want to go and watch a film?

Mario:  Hi, Tamara. Sure, what’s on?

Tamara:  Well, there are two action films, Mr and Mrs Jones and War Games, and they’re both in 3D.

Mario:  I’ve already seen Mr and Mrs Jones. I haven’t seen War Games, but I don’t really want to see an action film. What else is on?

Tamara:  There’s that science fiction film, Robot 2075, but I’ve already seen it.

Mario:  Is it good?

Tamara:  Yes, it is, but I don’t want to see it again. There’s a romantic¹ comedy called  Forever.

Mario:  Mmm, I’m not sure. Are there any horror² films on?

Tamara:  Yes, there’s Midnight Moon. It’s got vampires³ in it. 

Mario:  OK, sounds good. Let’s go and watch Midnight Moon. What time is it on?

Tamara:  It’s on at 12 o’clock or at half past two.

Mario:  Is it on this evening?

Tamara:  Yes, at 7:30.
