If I'm anything I'm honest. Was this movie theater top notch? No not really. The seats are quite a bit worn down (my ass quite literally fell asleep in it) and the theater was a bit messy. The food options are exactly what you expect from any run of the mill theater. The movie projector is likely outdated as well with low resolution. Pros: the place is virtually empty during the weeknights. Get the whole theater to yourself. Location is ideal for dates. Place has an old time feel. Movie selections are usually always great... read more

We had a gift card from years ago, and the staff were super kind and helpful. Didn't love the movie but loved the experience! And the hot dogs are great!

I want to like this theater, with comfortable seats and legroom and decent beer on tap. The sound system, however, leaves something to be desired. I don't mind that it is loud, which I like. But their speaker system apparently can't handle the volume, to the point that dialogue is garbled and the movie score is muffled. Maybe if they got better speakers or turned down the volume to where the speakers don't distort the sound?

Always a five star! Great seats ! Small venue! Great bathrooms ! Concessions is good also ! There is not a lot of traffic here! Most of patrons tend to be older ! Depending on the movie. A tad pricier! It's at the downtown mall, so parking can be a challenge! Be careful because of traffic crossing the mall right in front ! Love the beer! examen des cols bleus:

I think we found our new "go to" theater whenever we are in this area. We really enjoyed it. Staff were very polite and professional. The seats were clean. The bathrooms were very clean as well.

Ordinarily a solid movie theater, but when I went yesterday there was what seemed to be a busted speaker in my theater (Theater 5) - loud crackling and buzzing interrupted dialogue and distracted from the movie. Issue exacerbated by the small, intimate theaters. Haven't had this issue in my two previous trips (hence the 3 stars), but my most recent experience was 1 star for sure. Assuming your theater's speakers actually work as intended, though, this is a perfectly satisfactory movie theater. 

Business response:

Hi Nicholas, I'm very sorry that you had this experience. Please feel free to reach out to me at cameron.polson@violetcrown.com so that we can work something out to make up for these technical difficulties during your show. The sound issue has been identified and fixed so that on your next visit it will be back to sounding superb. Thanks and I hope we see you again sometime.

Came into theater 8 to watch Top Gun and loved how clean and comfortable it was. You can order alcoholic drinks and food at this theater. They have reclining seats, a tray table for your snacks and has a small and intimate setting. It's a great date night location prices are reasonable. Highly recommend.

Really a great theater. Next level concessions, super clean, validated parking, terrific staff. And the seats are fantastic.
