As a regularly cinema goer - several times a week - I am increasingly disappointed and let down by the behaviour of some cinema audiences - especially in relation to the use of Mobile phones - which should be barred from screenings. Promoting the code of conduct, as devised by Film critic Mark Kermode and his partner Simon Mayo may well be the best way of changing and affecting behaviour in Cinema's. Thank you.

The cinema needs a code of conduct on behaving appropriatley and showing respect .having a code of good behaviour whilst watching on the big screen ensures the message of respect and good manners and politeness is shown and adhered too at all times .important lesson for us all .....

Because it's only right that everyone visiting a cinema should be so interested in the film that they should automatically adhere to all parts of the code.

If you went to a theatre show, a ballet performance, or opera, and used your mobile phone, crunched sweets and slurped fizzy pop, you'd be escorted from your seat, ejected from the show, and not be given a refund. A cinema is a public venue, and for too long, too many people treat cinemas as an extension of their own living rooms: a place to natter, consume sweets loudly, and slurp drinks, whilst trying to text or update their social media statuses! I and many others are fed-up of paying our hard-earned money to enjoy a film, only to have it ruined by people who clearly don't want to be in the cinema in the first place! As most cinema chains now refuse to have ushers in screens, it's unfair to other filmgoers to have to keep reporting miscreants who insist on ruining a film for others, via their anti-social behaviour. I believe that the Wittertainment Code Of Conduct (especially the video created by Dr Kermode and Simon Mayo) needs to be made mandatory at all cinemas who value their patrons business!

Because cinema is a medium in which passionate film lovers embrace the craft of which every skill set is invested in by all involved. Each and every frame is a work of art and as cinema goers it's important to respect that.

I can't do with people faffing about on their phones in the cinema - the light from them distracts.
