I went to Turmpalast, I found nothing wrong with it..
BTW, WHY did u say it should be avoided??? Anything Im missing??
Anyways - besides that one, theres one in Bornheim
Mitte, u can take the U4 line to Bornheim Mitte, and the KINO is right there in 1 minute walk. They play sometimes English Movies. You will have to check with them for the listing, If I find out, Il let you know, but Bornheim is a very nice and safe area..
