In a Facebook post published yesterday, 9 March, TGV Cinemas announced that they will be giving out one free movie ticket to every MovieClub member.

On 5 March, moviegoers of the 7.15pm session were forced to rewatch a large portion of the movie because other customers came in late.
However, it was a miscommunication that caused the customers to come in late.
The outlet was facing a technical problem, which delayed some shows throughout the day.
But the problem was promptly fixed and the 7.15pm session was able to start on time. Some staff were not informed about the latest update and told customers that the movie was delayed, when in fact, it started on time.
“[At] this time, approximately 20% of the guests had already entered the hall while the remaining 80% were still waiting at the foyer and entered the hall after the movie had already commenced,” TGV Cinemas said in their apology statement.
Prior to the apology, the cinema chain went viral online, as netizens and moviegoers alike accused them of restarting the movie for VVIPs.
The “TGV VVIP Day” promotion can be seen as their way to apologise for their recent blunder.
