We had to be there 30 minutes before the movie was to start, so my sister and I we got a good layout of the land and we pretty much stayed till 6 o'clock. Fun was had by all. it was quite interesting to learn that you can order food from your seats, even during the movie. There was 2 issues where they brought my fries, but they were cold. They replaced them with hot fries and didn't charge me, my granddaughter didn't get her pop so I had to hunt them down and they didn't charge us for the missing drink, because it was missed. I like the fact, they were attentive to us, and that they were very acknowledgable and friendly.

Large Screens with ample seats & legroom. in Foyer lots of food choices- though I don't buy as much of this as I could.

Lately construction has been annoying- as elevator is out- and using staircase is NOT easy. However, NOT PROBLEMATIC ENOUGH to stop going.

Sure, the Cineplex in Eau Claire sometimes shows art house or indie flicks, but The Globe fills a niche in Calgary that I wish more theatres would cater to. The theatre is owned by Landmark, and they've outsourced some of their advertising to Cineplex, so you can actually check out a good chunk of the Cineplex Pre-Show here, which is ironic because the Cineplex location in Eau Claire doesn't even show that at their theatres. If you're on a budget, the best times to visit are during the weekends and catching a matinee (you save about $2.50 or so on admission that way), or visiting on a Tuesday as for $0.99 more than general admission ($10), you can get a popcorn/drink/candy combo. The Globe is on my list of theatres to check out every week whenever I'm in the mood for a film, because usually they've got quality stuff playing here. If you like films with a little bit more depth, give The Globe a try.

WOW!! I've been living in Calgary for one year and half, and I've never heard about this theater!!…read moreOne of my friend told me a documentary film called "this changes everything: capitalism vs climate" will be hold on it. So, I went by myself to the first show and I thought it might be empty or few people may attend, but I chocked because it was crowded and I barely found a chair, also the director was there. It was a great experience that I had and sure it'll not be the last one. Pros: Independent theater Cheap tickets Great movies No ads Cons: Online booking is not available Seats are without number

Calgary newest theatre and newest Cineplex…read more This location feels like a throwback as there is only 7 screens (6 have recliners). Ultra AVX and D-Box seats. There is a Xscape which is Cineplex coinless games area. Very modern decor and there is only theatre concessions that offer popcorn pop, candies, hot dogs and small desert menu. Pricing is same as other Cineplex and don't forget Scene card. Staff are friendly and I saw Solo here in UltraAVX and seats are comfy. Sound is fantastic. Only two check in counters and two self serve kiosks. Overall very solid new theatre for SE Calgary but waiting on VIP in Seton.

Flavored popcorn, cotton candy, nachos, and hotdogs. It has a hometown theatre, which gives me an 'at home' feel. Prices are pretty much as expected for movie theatres, but at least this one is close by and locally run and nearby. They are active in the community, which I like. I love the popcorn smell. With gas prices as they, this theatre is a real gem for the locals.

Seats were old, but the food was ok and we figured for Okotoks it wasnt terrible. However some rude parents brought their infant/young toddler and preschool aged child and allowed them to run around the theater, screaming, crying and talking the entire movie. Literally rolling down the aisles. When I approached the manager, she advised that this was allowed in their theatre and they do not restrict very young children who are not able to sit through a movie. We will just go to Shawnessy or Seton next time. Rude inconsiderate parents who ruined the movie for everyone else and staff that didnt care. Waste of $100 and an evening.

On Friday or Saturday, it's common to have to wait an extra 30-45 minutes in line to purchase expensive snacks. Why on earth would they not staff two extra tills on the weekend to accommodate their clientele??!!!?

While the state of this theatre is a far cry from what it was back when it was still Silver City,…read morethe theatre itself still holds up. There's loads of free parking, the snacks are tasty (and I like that you can fill your own cup since their machines have so many flavours - like seven flavours of Coke, etc), the lineups at the concession always move fast, and the seats (even the non-premium) ones are still comfortable and well-maintained. Even the washrooms always seem to be in good condition. The theatre in many ways is still a bit outdated, but in a time when movie theatres seem to be struggling a bit, I'm glad to see this one has managed to maintain it's upkeep as well as it has.

Had a meeting the other day to view this space as an events space and man did it blow me away. Set…read morein the heart of downtown, this 100 year old historic building still conveys its original pride in its golden leaf mouldings, the original theatre ceiling and original walls. Most of the architecture has been updated and the lobby area houses the sexy and sultry Velvet Restaurant. The main theatre is a jaw dropping thing to experience, from the catwalk you see an expansive area with rolling seats that can be set up as a classic theatre formation or can be set up against all four walls with the stage in the center. The hardwood floor is rich and dark and the brick wall is an interesting urban feel which could house really unique staging. The theatre was renovated by theatre diehard loyalists and you can tell the dedication that has been put into this venue as everything is so well taken care of. There is a killer mezzanine area, with a bar that presently has been popular for wine and scotch tasting events. The only criticism I would have is because of all the historic restoration they are not so open to hosting youth events there but it is understandable considering the fine details of the architecture. All in all the place is a superb location and akin to theatre spaces I have seen in New York City and Toronto, but it's not its grandness is all right here in Calgary.

They had Juno winning musicians masterfully creating the sound for this old film. I was blown away by the beauty and history of this theatre! I have since attended several events and loved them all.

Heading to their showing of The Princess Bride tonight, pass the popcorn. ;)

This is my local movie theatre and I like it. Why?…read more As a movie theatre in a small town (pop. ~21000) they feature all the perks you would get in Calgary for a better price and without lineups. From time to time they do movie specials called "Red Carpet Premier" where they feature a film and add some perks like special guests, door prizes, movie related decoration, some food and drinks etc. We did three of them already. My last 'Red Capet Premiere' was for the latest Hobbit movie. They had the stunt coordinator from the movie as a special guest. He setup a small fight scene with volunteers from the audience within 15 minutes and had some original movie props to show around. However there is some room for improvement: First of all their website is unacceptable. They have a fancy "Adobe Flash-only" website and on some devices they just don't work. There is no way around as they don't offer any alternative. Ergo we have never done any spontaneous visits while on the way back home because we just could't see what's up (yes, I am aware there are external sites providing movie listings but come on, they want MY money so they should offer this information to me). Second: please let the people wait inside for a 'Red Carpet Premier' as you did the years before. Doors to the movie and the cinema itself opened at the same time so people had to wait outside on the parking lot. Come on, it's winter... Finally: if there is a raffle for door prizes please make sure it is fair. I wouldn't have expected people cheating by entering multiple times to begin with. But I would have at least taken away the prize from whom I catch ;)

THIS PLACE SAVED MY LIFE!!!…read more For a young movie buff raised on a tight family budget in a town too small to have a movie thater, life was hard. I know, it's a silly complaint to make, but the 2 or 3 times my parents would take us into the city to go to movies it was like getting an extra Christmas that year for me.... so I remember VERY fondly the day I first started seeing metal fences going up and a hole being dug in the big empty gravel lot by Extra Foods, and there started being rumblings that a movie theater was going in. Granted, at the time it was just a little two-screener with grossly western-themed lobby decor, an arcade that would have been considered out of date a decade and a half before it opened, a frustrating bias toward family friendly movies and a concession rivaled by some vending machines, but when you live in a town where kids buy their music from a drug store and Smitty's is considered fine dining, who's going to argue? Things have changed a lot since then - more screens have been added (you no longer have to worry that if two animated kids movies come out within the same month that the more mature stuff will never reach town), the lobby looks a lot less likely to be visited by a tumbleweed, and you can now get just about anything in the way of movie-going snackage (in fact, for a while they even had cotton candy, though I'm not sure if this is still the case). By no means is this theater ever likely to rival the big chains or even the more independent stuff in the bigger cities, but there's also something to be said for the quaint, little town charm of a theater where you can sometimes buy your ticket, walk to the concession stand, and have to wait 30 seconds or so while the same guy leaves the ticket booth and runs around being the counter to sell you your popcorn. It's a bit comical, but gives this place it's own charm... and if the staff of years ago and the owner (who's a really cool dude despite his never calling me all the many, many times I applied for a job there as a teenager) are any indication of the current batch, I'm sure the service is awesome and comes with a big smile. I never seem to find myself in Cochrane any more, but if I did I would have no hesitance what-so-ever to swing by this little spot and see what one of my olds haunts is up to... and neither should you. 8/30
