Why 'Cinema is started' is not correct?

You can say: The cinema has started.

When you say "is started" you mean that someone started it. Lots of things can be started by an actor, for example:

A race is started by a referee's shooting a gun.
A fight is started when one person hits or insults another person.
A debate is started when one person gets up to argue his side.
The opera is started by the orchestra
