Gold Reef City Theme Park is bringing two new exciting movies to the 4D Theatre - the first and only 4D cinema in Africa.

 

The new movies, set to start in March 2010, include an exciting yet humorous science-fiction film called Robots of Mars, and Turtle Vision, a cute coming of age story featuring the adorable sea turtle, Sammy.

 

For ultimate big screen movie entertainment even more spectacular than 3D movies and high-definition television, the 4D experience stimulates all the senses with hydraulic seats and sensory elements such as gusts of wind, squirts of water and leg ticklers that add an extra dimension to the 3D imagery. Within seconds of the shows starting, you'll forget you're in a cinema and become engrossed in your epic journey.

 

Showing from 09:30 - 12:30 every day, Robots of Mars Adventure is a wild and wacky computer animated adventure-comedy set in an all-robot world. In this funny yet exhilarating adventure, you'll meet Sparky the Robot and his band of mechanical misfits, Blasto the Dog, Melody the Bird and Mad Doctor as they save the universe from the evil Supervisor of Mars.

 

In Turtle Vision, you'll experience the ups and downs of life on land and sea with Sammy, the cutest sea turtle on the big screen - showing from 13:00 - 16:30 daily. Follow Sammy and his friends on an exciting journey from the warm waters of the tropics to the icy Antarctic. You'll hold onto an octopus for dear life in the wildest ride you'll ever experience in a cinema and get close to some spectacular coral reefs and their colourful inhabitants.

 

The 4D Theatre is fitted out with high definition video projection and a variety of special effects supplied by Kraftwerk, an Austrian company that has pioneered four dimensional cinema as a new form of entertainment within a movie theatre.

 

Both movies are between 10 and 15 minutes long. Remember, admission to these great shows, all rides and shows, is free with your entrance ticket to Gold Reef City Theme Park. Entrance tickets exclude entrance to 'Jozi's Story of Gold.'
