UCI Cinemas (full name United Cinemas International) was founded in 1989 through a merger of AMC and CIC cinemas and operated as a joint venture between Paramount Pictures and Universal Pictures initially to build cinemas in the UK, but expanded and began to operate in Austria, Germany, Italy, Portugal, Brazil and Ireland. In 2004, along with Odeon, they were bought by Terra Firma Capital Partners and the UK operations of UCI had been rebranded as Odeon by 2006, with the exception of the Hull cinema, which was evicted due to redevelopment and not replaced as there was already an Odeon there. The same year, the Brazilian unit of UCI was sold to National Amusements, making this the company's only non-Showcase-branded operation.
