Encore Cinema

For an encore theater showing movies that are no longer in the bigger theaters, this place is really good. I missed out on The Martian a few months back and it ended up here which is what prompted me to check it out. There are 5 or 6 individual theaters in the building. Each movie has a maximum of 3 showings a day starting at 1:30pm with the latest showings around 10pm. It looks like they have about 8 movies at any given time. Prices are $ 4 before 6pm and $ 5 after however, Tuesday is $ 3 movie day which is what I took advantage of. I didn’t purchase any concessions but glanced at prices and they appear generally lower than most theaters. I recall a large tub of popcorn being $ 7 and a small drink being $ 2.50. I believe bottled water was $ 2. The theaters themselves are very large and there weren’t many people there so you could spread out. Less than 10 people at my showing. It was clean but is an older building. The screen is maybe slightly smaller than a normal theater but it wasn’t that noticeable. The sound was also good. If I had one complaint it was the seats weren’t the best. I was fine in them for a 2 hour movie but they are older and don’t recline much or have much padding.
All in all for $ 3 this is a winner for me. If I miss a movie or I’m curious about a movie but don’t want to pay full price, I’ll just wait for it to show up here. Of course, if It is a movie I really want to see and am looking for a full theater experience, I’ll pony up the extra cash and see it in IMAX or XD.

Finally an affordable movie theater for the average family! Very clean and surprisingly large.
