Nice little theatre that has taken good measures to keep patrons physically distanced during the pandemic. Popcorn was great and extra butter reall means extra butter. Everyone working there was very friendly.

I absolutely love this cinema. It's always really fun and I love the old flicks they have showing and activities beforehand. I recently went to the Mortal Kombat tournament and 1995 movie showing, and it was well thought out and planned perfectly. The staff are super friendly and concession is affordable. Being able to have a beer with friends while watching old classics is just amazing. I love that they encourage cheering and witty call outs during the movies, everyone is laughing, drinking and having fun. Prepare for a late one.
I just love this place. Having the Uptown theater across the street close down a few years back was an eye opener for me - if this place ever left us too it would be a damn shame. Where else would you go to see a crazy foreign, indy or classic movie in theater?
My first time visiting there, I was expecting a small dingy empty place. Which... I suppose if there was nobody at this theater you could say the same. However the movie I attended (Colour of Space) seemed like it was sold out. Now.. normally I have intense social anxiety and cannot handle crowds. But this was fine! Despite touching shoulders with the people sitting next to me. This place was great! I go out to movies maybe once every 5 years, but this experience made me want to be more social. The entire atmosphere was very warm and welcoming. All the staff and guests were incredibly friendly. I felt very at home and comfortable among people with similar and shared interests. I went in expecting an average decent experience, and left to go tell people how awesome it was. Seriously great job. Love the environment.
Thankful for venues like this. Parking is scarce but we ducked down the alley and parked underground at 707 on 5 (new building under construction but parkade is open). Nice comfy seats with drink holders for all. Spacious capacity. Concession with beer, sweets and popcorn (can have topping or layered for small additional cost). The staff is friendly and the theatre shows more than just the usual fare.
