Yes, it's old. Yes, the seats are rickety and there's no stadium seating or 3D or good food. But you're here to watch a second-run movie for cheap , so you can't complain.

Toast

This place was a little hard to find. Don't get mixed up with the Silvercity across the street. Go into the BMO building, up the stairs & through the hall behind some glass doors by the bank itself

Maryann

Good if you want to watch a movie on your own. It's quiet . Be warned, this place isn't fancy like other theatres.

Graham Jarrett

All theaters have been updated with digital projectors . The presentation is bright and crisp.

Chris Thomson

This theatre cuts out the bullshit from before the movie . Just 5 minutes of theatrical trailers remain -- no pre-show or other (non-movie) ads. Unfortunately, that means they also have no TimePlay.

Chris Thomson

1980s-eque interior, which is funny. Seats aren't elevated . Video quality seems somewhat bad. No 3D movies . Usually has movies that are no longer shown in most theatres, or movies that are unpopular.

Ali Hejvani

It's old. No 3D. Economic and also nostalgic.

Justin Robinson

Remember those cinemas where you felt like you were watching tv cause the screen is so small? This is one of those. Avoid and go to one of the bigger theaters..

Alina D

Still some obscure movies here but need to update this theatre.

Matthew A

Don't sit at the back. Seats don't decline and heads get in the way!!!

Maryann

Nice theatre to go to when you wanna do the movie all by yourself kinda day.

Suga Jam

Why is this theatre so freezing. Look I know hardly anyone is here but you could put the heat on. I felt like I should be wearing long underwear and it's only mid October!!!!!!!!!!!

Mark Baker

Don't watch a movie here if you can avoid it. The joint needs a makeover. The rooms are small and seating is squishy. In the winter the room was an oven.

Pick up a bag of sweets at Sugarmountain beforehand: half a block up Yonge street next to BMV and Starbucks.

Dan Levy

They don't validate parking at the movie theater . :(

Robert Wheaton

You can buy your ticket at the consessions stand, so you don't have to stand in line twice.

safekidzone

Have the power "breakfast " at Aroma cafe for brunch before catching a movie

Patrick Rocca

Awful....dirty baths. .they charge extra for butter and for water. ..crappy theaters....Yonge eglinton center blows this place away..

Chris Thomson

It's just a matter of time before this place goes out of business.

Norman Valdez

Should make sure you see this is not the theater across, Google maps is not very helpful here.

It is indeed a hidden gem in the city. The screens may be a bit smaller than the regular large chain theaters but it makes up for that in the comfort you get being there. Highly recommend it ☺ - Amanda A.
