Most major cinemas in Beijing show foreign blockbusters in the original language - namely English, usually. You just have to be careful to make sure the screening you choose is in the original language as sometimes there are special screenings which are dubbed in Chinese. Mega Box in Sanlitun is one of the most popular cinemas among the international community in Beijing because of its central location in the heart of the Village and because they show foreign movies in the original sound with Chinese sub-titles. UME and Wanda cinemas are also popular with many branches in convenient locations across the city. Check out the link to the cinema listings below for more info.
You could get a DvD and take off the subtitles. I think most of the cinemas have subtitles for the chinese viewer. I don't think I've been to a cinema without seeing them...
