Agree. The police can't evaluate a call out properly until they're actually there.
I assume that the cinema called them with a slightly exaggerated description of the situation. All it takes is calling the (women) "belligerent" or similar to imply violence. Hence four officers.
My actual beef is that this business is socialising the cost of enforcing their terms of service by calling the police rather than paying for their own security.
