Easy to leave early

Outdoor riverside cinema with rows of seating; film soundtrack through a PA system but no live band volume, dusk/dark screening with a big bright screen, mild food-stand smells from concessions.

Exit plan

Seating is in an open-air block rather than an enclosed cinema, so you can get up and leave along the side aisles at any point during the screening.
