I have spent many years living in structured environments with all kinds of expectations and rules and stuff. What I found worked for me pretty well was, whenever possible, try to clarify UP FRONT what the rules, regulations, and requirements are for, say, in your case, being allowed to go to the cinema. So, if, for example, whoever the person in charge is says, "You cannot go to the cinema unless you get up before noon, are washed up, and clean your room," then you can plan for that the night before and there will be no surprises. So, as has been mentioned, clarify all these expectations in advance. Then, you can be sure to take care of your responsibilities so you can go to the movie. Just my take. Good luck!!
