The classic low-key hangout. Because some people simply prefer to spend a rainy day watching movies, and with ScreenX you can take that experience up a notch.

This new theater has a 270-degree panoramic screen that makes you feel like you are in the middle of the action. For now it is only available at Caribbean Cinemas del Distrito T Mobile.

For those who feel a hangout is not really a hangout without a beer or a drink, the theater also has a bar and lounge with a menu of drinks and appetizers. Cheers!

Hours: Subject to the schedule
