The worst theater in Charlottesville you are practically required to reserve your seat and hope the spot you pick you will like,there is no changing seats. Went to see a movie on spur of the moment with four people, showed up an hour early and could not get four seats together! This for a movie that had been out for almost 2 months! Again don't go if you have not pre planned your movie experience. The movie theater as a whole has a snobby feel!!!!

Be careful what you wish for. I wished for another movie theater here but parking is a pain and the walk is only great in warm weather and during the day. Over priced and nothing special. The only reason I went is because it was the only theater that was showing what I wanted to see. The town can afford to show the same movie in two places for people who don't want to hike to a movie. **Also theater is not conducive to handicap patrons. I saw no handicap seating not to mention parking for them.

Waited in a terribly disorganized line for 25min, just to be told when we finally reached the front that the movie was sold out all day. You can't put a notice on your screen to avoid this problem? I've been told that it's a very nice theater, but I can't comment on that due to disorganization and poor customer service.
