Movies That Entertain, Delight, and Sometimes Challenge You

What makes something an Anticipate Picture? It could be an unbelievable story, a new point-of-view, or a fresh perspective through familiar genres. Whichever the title, you can always count on our carefully curated programming to spend a worthwhile time with our films.

Life is short, why waste it on a lackluster movie? Trust any film with our iconic orange-and-black label - you will always look forward to what we bring next.

Bask in Some Gorgeously Restored Films

Cinema has come a long way, and more and more classic movies are painstakingly restored by renowned archivists and film institutions around the world. We pick some of the best, non-A.I. restored work that demand to be seen theatrically, and work to bring them to the big screens in Singapore. Even if you have seen the film many times before, these new 4K restorations will still take your breath away.
