Solution

The correct option is C watching a film
The underlined phrase is incomplete in meaning. It needs to be changed, hence option A is incorrect. Option B is grammatically incorrect since one can't visit a film, but the place where the film is being run. Option C is correct because it is parallel in its structure to that of the former phrase (visiting his cousins and watching a film). Option D is incorrect because it does not run parallel in structure to the former phrase.
