GSC will continue to evolve and re-invent itself to meet the current needs of movie goers and to ensure an enriching movie going experience for movie fans”.

“We have allocated a total of 121 halls for the 25,000 seats, which basically accounts for around 68% of GSC total seating capacity nationwide”, he further elaborated.

GSC recently launched a new branding – GSC Lite with the opening of 6-screen GSC Lite Mentakab Star Mall on March 15, 2012. GSC Lite which embodies GSC’s cinema entertainment magic in a lighter, modest and accessible manner to cater to smaller market centre without compromising the effects of the big screen and digital sound hall similar to those available in GSC cinemas nationwide. This allows GSC customers to enjoy cinema-going experience at competitive prices.
