Movies - Discover the top 3 films in Dolby Cinema since the launch of the format in France

By Mulder, 16 february 2023

In 2017, Dolby launched a unique cinema concept in France that concentrated all its know-how in immersive audiovisual technologies: the Dolby Cinema. In collaboration with Les Cinémas Pathé, the leading cinema circuit in France, the Netherlands and Switzerland, 11 Dolby Cinema cinemas were opened in France's largest cities, bringing the number of Dolby Cinema cinemas worldwide to over 450.
 
Dolby Cinema offers the ultimate Dolby experience. It combines the most spectacular Dolby Vision HDR picture and Dolby Atmos immersive sound technologies with sophisticated design and comfort. The viewer is truly transported to the heart of the story, and experiences the story more intensely. In less than 5 years, Dolby Cinema has succeeded in becoming one of France's favorite premium cinemas. 
 
A unique immersive experience that has attracted hundreds of thousands of spectators to these new generation premium cinemas. Here are the Top 3 most viewed films in Dolby Cinema in France to date:
 
Avatar Way of the Water 252,511 tickets
Avengers: Endgame 105,562 tickets
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker 95,702 tickets

Unsurprisingly, Avatar: The Waterway accumulated the most admissions and beat the record previously set by Avengers: Endgame, released three years earlier. From American blockbusters such as the Avengers saga, to successful French films such as "Le Chant du Loup", the Dolby Cinema format adapts to all types of films and enhances the story told by the director, so as to make the emotions felt as the latter imagined them.  French films currently or soon to be released include "Asterix & Obelix: The Middle Kingdom" and "The Three Musketeers: D'Artagnan" (release date: 05/04).
