Martin Scorsese’s long-anticipated new release, Killers of the Flower Moon, has delighted fans after opening in UK cinemas last weekend – but with a running time of three hours and 26 minutes, the less hardened film buffs among us might be wondering how to get through it without needing a toilet break.<\/p>\n
Thankfully, one cinema chain has given its customers a welcome reprieve by scheduling intervals in some screenings of the film.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Vue Cinemas, which has 91 sites across the UK, is offering some screenings of the film which stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert DeNiro, with a 15-minute break included halfway through.<\/p>\n
During the break,\u00a0movie fans can stock up on sweets or take a toilet break without missing a beat in the gripping movie.<\/p>\n
Following Vue’s announcement, film fans took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to praise the ‘smart move’.\u00a0<\/p>\n

People have praised the cinema chain for giving customers the option to attend a screening with a 15-minute interval, however not absolutely everybody is pleased<\/p>\n
If you choose to book a screening which includes the interval, Vue Cinemas advises you to ‘factor a further 15-20 minutes’ into the running time because of the break.<\/p>\n
After the cinema chain announced the offer, fans took to X calling on cinemas to give customers this option for all longer films.<\/p>\n
One person wrote: ‘Bring [intervals] back for 3+ hours films. I’m sure loads of people would go and see films they usually wait to watch at home.’<\/p>\n
However, not everyone was pleased with the decision – as another film buff said they were concerned the second half of the film would begin ‘with zero fanfare or warning’, causing viewers to miss it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
They wrote: ‘The next five to ten minutes is hampered by people coming in with new nachos and popcorn and slushies trying to find their seats.’<\/p>\n
