To Our Clients:

                 Enclosed for your consideration is the Prospectus, dated
__________, 1996, of CinemaStar Luxury Theaters, Inc. (the "Company"), relating
to the Offer described therein, together with a Letter to Redeemable
Warrantholders from the Company.  This material is being forwarded to you as
the beneficial owner of Redeemable Warrants of the Company carried by us in
your account but not registered in your name.  A tender and exercise of such
Redeemable Warrants may be made only by us as the holder of record and pursuant
to your instructions.  The Letter to Redeemable Warrantholders is furnished to
you for your information only and cannot be used by you to tender and exercise
Redeemable Warrants held by us for your account.

                 Accordingly, we request instructions as to whether you wish us
to tender and exercise any or all of the Redeemable Warrants held by us for
your account, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Prospectus.

                 Your instructions to us should be forwarded as promptly as
possible in order to permit us to tender and exercise on your behalf in
accordance with the provisions of the Offer, which terminates at 5:00 p.m. New
York City time, on ___________, __________, 1996, unless extended (the
"Expiration Date").  The Offer is not conditioned upon the exercise of a
minimum number of Redeemable Warrants.

                 All Redeemable Warrants properly tendered and exercised and
not withdrawn prior to the Expiration Date will be deemed to have been accepted
by the Company when, as and if the Company has given oral or written notice
thereof to the Depository.

                 If you wish to have us tender and exercise any or all of the
Redeemable Warrants held by us for your account, will you kindly so instruct us

forwarded to us in ample time to permit us to submit a tender and exercise of
Redeemable Warrants on your behalf prior to the Expiration Date.  The Company
will pay such brokerage commissions or fees with respect to the exercise of
Redeemable Warrants pursuant to the Offer which would ordinarily be associated
with the regular exercise of such Redeemable Warrants.

                 The Offer is made solely by the Prospectus and is being made
to all Redeemable Warrantholders.  The Offer can only be accepted by residents
of states set forth in the Prospectus under "The Offer - Blue Sky Law".  If the
Company becomes aware of beneficial owners in other states, the Company will
seek to clear the Offer in such states.  If, after such good faith effort, the
Company cannot comply with such state statute, the Offer will not be made to
(nor will exercises of Redeemable Warrants be accepted from or on behalf of)
the holders of Redeemable Warrants in such state.  In any state where the
securities, blue sky or other laws require the Offer to be made by a licensed
broker or dealer, the Offer shall be deemed to be made on behalf of the Company
by one or more registered brokers or dealers licensed under the laws of such
state.
