Film Forum

Easily the best revival theater in NYC. A great assortment of classics, art house, indie, and documentary . A staple of the NYC film community.

This legendary theater on West Houston has legendarily cramped seating that forces you to pay attention to the screen. It's real strength is showing films of yesteryear, many themed together. Read more

My husband and I could watch movies all day here. The membership is definitely worth it. They have great 2-for-1 movies as well . Beware the popcorn is made with peanut oil which I'm allergic to.

Quirky, fun, the good kind of vintage. Not your typical theater experience nor choice of movies but an extremely recommended experience. Popcorn in here is nostalgic in a way I can’t describe✨

A NYC institution showing amazing gems. One of the few places in town where you can still feel the creativity of old New York.

Best popcorn in NYC . Great brownies , banana bread and other snacks as well .

Film Forum updated its cinema with new, comfortable theater seating & a fresh marquee resembling the vintage model. Con Edison engineered newly lit movie screens and the new marquee.

The place has great international movie selections that aren't playing anywhere else in NYC.. AND they serve coffee !! The popcorn and other snacks are 100% top shelf

Love this place! They show a consistently great selection of new independent and classic movies . I took out a one year membership and haven't regretted it in the least.

Best known as the star of Disney’s 101 Dalmatians, this sleek and athletic They started out as a coach dog but also served in many other capacities, <aclass="entity url"rel="nofollow" href="https://dalmatianpuppyplace.com"target="_blank" data-sig="c+1dtNL+jlbd2v25lFIQ2Ifih9M=" onmousedown="fourSq.ui.OutgoingLink.mousedown($(this), event)" data-source="tip-text">https://dalmatianpuppyplace.com</a>

Always interesting line-up of movies - many documentaries eg today I saw national gallery .

The best theater to catch your favorite old movie has exquisite repertory and revival programming such as pre-Code oldies, ’70s NYC crime thrillers and French classics —plus gourmet snacks ! Read more

Film selection is curated so well ! Love the size of the theater, the previews, the movies , the general atmosphere

Loving the new seats since the renovation, and their double features are a great deal when offered.

The environment is very nice and the design is very distinctive. There's a lot of great movies . I love it here.

Be sure to check out the kid friendly shows every weekend — smile

Treat yourself to the basic $75 annual membership, if you see one movie a month it pays for itself. Better yet go weekly to try to avoid the human race.

A great venue for quirky independent films and retrospectives. And they have new seats!!

Get here early and bring cash. The theaters are small and can fill up quickly. P.S. - The egg creams are delicious!

This theater has the best popcorn in NYC . They don't offer butter but all it needs is sea salt provided at the counter.

Amazing selection of first-rate classic movies . Ever wanted to see Raging Bull on the big screen , this is where to go! Great lectures too.

Best popcorn in all of New York and they serve pretty good movies as well .

Brian Oblivion of Cults calls this his favorite movie theater in the city ! "One time I ended up sitting next to Christopher Guest. Laughing with him was the coolest thing ever."

Wonderfully broad selection of classic films and exotic indies.

Since 1972, Film Forum has shown some of the rarest and highly regarded films of its time. Catch movie marathons, one-time screenings, and directors’ lectures.

They always play an eclectic but awesome selection of movies , but the popcorn is really barebones

See all kinds of great revivals at the Film Forum. Fight the urge to pop a cap in all the Criterion snobs and self-congratulatory Baby Boomer film buffs who talk for the entire duration of the film .

a great place that we loves...although if they aren't going to take credit cards they should make their ticket price 10 bucks...I'm going to the ATM to take out 40 bucks for a friends and myself to go

Great place, great films . But get there early and bring your own hot melted butter. They oddly don't offer any.

Great place to see an indépendant film in the Village .

It's all about the well curated programming. ????????⭐️????????????❤️

Sadly, the renovation was a missed opportunity and leaves a lot to be desired. You’ll probably love this place if you’re tall, otherwise, enjoy bad popcorn and the back of someone’s head.

Great selection of movies .

Best revival house (and arthouse) cinema in NYC. See a great old New York movie or Woody Allen film here.

The Ingmar Bergman festival has been fantastic!

Winner of Best Place to Watch Old Movies in the Village Voice 2011 Best Of issue!

Shows some of the best films in the city .

Get here early and avoid the long line outside!!! Just wait inside instead ;)

Could really use an ATM if the credit card minimum is $9. A small popcorn is $5.5

The best short run program in the city

Good film , though non-smoking.

still no student deal , but they take cash now: 14 bucks a pop.

Best place to watch old movies in the village

The only arthouse cinema in New York whose banana bread is endorsed by postmodern luminary Jacques Derrida. Read more

Great programming, prints , and sound

Great selection of films

Come for the movie , stay for the MFA cuties at the downtown screening center that V adores. Read more

BYOB (bring your own butter)

Beware: small screens and I call bullshit on the fact they only take cash.

The new & improved!
