    I've watched so many movies over the years here, its by far my favorite movie theater I've ever been to, I hope it goes on to be the best movie theater ever. Live Long and Prosper 🖖

    I went to this theater in the 1050s and though updated since then, it still has vibes of those times. I go here often, and enjoy the atmosphere a lot. The staff is courteous and friendly.

    Friendly attendants, prices were very reasonable and I loved the hot dog. The theater wasn't busy at all, but it was a Wednesday evening. There were only 8 of us in the whole theater for the feature. We saw Masters of the Universe. It was a fun movie. We were pleasantly surprised.
