Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.7 s · 233 KiB152 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (233 KiB).
17,624 HTML elements
The page has 17,624 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Mobile performance score: 36
36/100Your mobile performance score is 36. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Main-thread work: 9.6 s
A phone's processor spends 9.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 5.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
17 long tasks on the main thread
17 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 1.5 s. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused JavaScript
450 ms · 478 KiBAbout 478 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
900 ms3 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 900 ms.
Reduce unused CSS
750 ms · 79 KiBAbout 79 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 171 ms
171 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 171 ms of main-thread work and 523 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
5 third-party services on the page
5 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Didomi and mPulse and others), adding 743 KiB and 288 ms of main-thread time.
Improve image delivery
150 ms · 49 KiB5 images could be 49 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

Time to Interactive: 16.9 s
16.9 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 16.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 1.9 s

Speed Index: 7.6 s
7.6 sVisually, the page fills in at 7.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Tap response (INP) got 43% slower for real visitors
+43%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 523 ms to 752 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.4 MB in 219 requests
2.4 MBYour homepage downloads 2.4 MB in 219 requests on a phone: scripts 1.3 MB (147), HTML 480 KiB (3) and images 271 KiB (20). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image far larger than shown
10 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example carnaval-st-1-jpg-sd-low-fotograaf-boas-van-milligen-bielke- at 1,080 px wide, shown at 322 px. Resized copies would save about 10 KiB.
3 images below the first screen load straight away
3 images further down the page (117 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.7 g of CO₂ per visit
0.68 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.68 g of CO₂e: 81.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
1 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Accessibility
2 buttons without a name
2 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
Orphan list items
Some list items are not inside a list.
Interactive controls must not be nested (1 element)
Interactive controls must not be nested: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
1 image without alt text
1 image has no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
Heading levels should only increase by one (1 element)
Heading levels should only increase by one: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
1 link without text
1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (5 elements)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 5 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (2 elements).
1 checks passed
48 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 56 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 8 failed. 4 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
Title is long (71 characters)
Your title is 71 characters, so Google will cut it off around 60: “Pathé Netherlands Cinemas: Films, Cinema releases, E-tickets, Schedules”.
Meta description is long (171 characters)
Your meta description is 171 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
Structured data has 1 problem
Structured data found (Organization and WebSite) but with 1 problem, for example “Organization: url points at a different host (https://www.pathe.fr)”.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
201 internal links, 3 external
The homepage links to 201 pages on pathe.nl and 3 external pages.
3 checks passed
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.pathe.nl/en.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.pathe.nl/sitemaps/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No llms.txt
There is no https://www.pathe.nl/llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.
3 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Organization data: 4 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (2,139 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
2 pages share a title
https://www.pathe.nl/en and https://www.pathe.nl/en/info/club-pathe all use the title “Pathé Netherlands cinemas: Films, Cinema releases, E-tickets, Schedul…”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
1 page without a meta description
https://www.pathe.nl/en/films has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
2 pages share a meta description
https://www.pathe.nl/en/films/godzilla-minus-zero-japanese-english-subs-54841 and https://www.pathe.nl/en/films/godzilla-minus-zero-nederlands-ondertiteld-56215 use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.
3 pages slow to respond
https://www.pathe.nl/en/films/verity-50915, https://www.pathe.nl/en/films/de-grote-sinterklaasfilm-en-de-vliegende-pieten-55105 and https://www.pathe.nl/en/films/de-club-van-sinterklaasfilm-paniek-in-het-pietendorp-55104 took over 3 s to send their HTML from our server.

Content and conversion
