They usually play one movie at a time, which definitely helps reduce the overwhelm of trying to choose a movie. There is one register where you pay for everything: movie tickets, popcorn, candy & drinks. Prices are way better than what you pay at large movie theaters. Definitely recommend if you're visiting the area. Also family and disability friendly.

From the owner: We may be in a 1916 theatre building but the auditorium & projection booth are state-of-the-art…read more We offer the best movies, many you won't see anywhere else. Our prices for concessions are the lowest around. We use real butter on the popcorn. Our Dolby 7.1 Digital Sound System is incredible as is our digital picture. We offer beer & wine as well as Moxie & other fabulous soft drinks, coffee & tea. You can rent the space for your own event. Public & private. We have a small-town vibe that the multiplexes lack.

Ok let's start by stating that the price is RIGHT here. I have been here twice since the remodel…read moreand you still get the relaxing seats, the facilities are clean and the staff was friendly. The only drawback with this one was that the heat was very high on one of the movies we saw and one the cold air was pumping on the other one. I like it as an alternative where you are paying double the price for the movie and the accommodations. It might be the taj mahal but it suffices and if you want Taj you can go right to the restaurant in the same plaza for a delicious bite before or after. We will definitely be back.

$10 movie tickets?? In this economy?!…read more I don't care if the movie theater looks outdated interior-wise. I'm here to see a movie. Not have tea in the foyer. The seats recline and are comfortable. A drawback was there isn't a little table to put your food on (popcorn oil seeped alllll over our pants). I WILL say the two young fellas serving up food were a wee bit unprofessional (highschoolers, ya know?) but again, if all you're doing is filling up my popcorn and buttering it to my liking, it's fine. We're fine. As long as movie tickets stay $10, I will be taking my cinema experience to this location for the foreseeable future.

What a delightful movie theatre! We caught a screening of Jaws (50th anniversary edition) and it…read morewas a great experience. They even had a Lego version of the shark popping out of the water on the concessions counter! Very charming. The seats were comfortable enough (although perhaps a bit narrow) and there were no bad views. I love that there's a balcony! The staff was super friendly and they had a great selection of concessions. The popcorn was fresh and really reasonably priced. It's a great part of the community: they host live events, screen local films, and offer screenings like Jaws. They have a movie-themed cafe next door to boot. I'd absolutely be a regular if I were local. There's no assigned seating for movie screenings, so you may want to arrive early if it's a popular showing.

You can find the Strand Theatre at 345 Main St, Rockland, ME 04841 pretty much in the heart of…read moredowntown, slightly south of the center of Main. The theater still has the original marquee and is lit up when active so it's easy to spot. There's parking out front and in several lots a block or so away - we didn't have any issues with finding a spot. Also, parking appears to be free after 6:00 PM (otherwise there's a 2 hour limit). We were visiting friends in coastal main and after a full day of hiking, visiting lighthouses and dinner at a local seafood joint, we decided to hit the Barbie movie at the Strand. Adult tickets were $9 which were super reasonable (in Atlanta it would have been $16, to provide a comparison). There's a ticket boot at the front to one side of the entry door and someone to tear and return the stub just inside. This is a surviving classic old theater - something you rarely see these days and from the programming appears to be quite active, both for running movie productions and for local use. It has a wonderful interior with lots of wood and a full balcony (if you haven't experienced balcony seating it's something to try - that's where we sat). Concessions were reasonable and both the theater and perhaps more importantly, the restrooms (in the basement) were very clean and well maintained. We had a great time with Barbie. The concessions were reasonable and the staff excellent - you could tell that they took great pride in the theater.

What a unique and wonderful find!…read more I wanted to see a movie that came out less than two weeks ago, but when I searched showtimes my usual (closer to home) theater had no more showings. But Maine Film Center was listed with showtimes, so I decided to give this new place a try! And I'm so glad I did! The building and amenities are all new and stunning! The theater was small but had very comfortable seats (all with cup holders). The audio and visual quality was excellent too. I bought a small popcorn too and it was the best popcorn I've ever had at a movie theater! The popcorn kernels had great natural flavor and were enhanced only with a sprinkle of salt and the optional butter, which tasted like real melted butter. There was no taste of icky oils and powders like at other movie theaters. However, for those wanting a bolder flavor, there was an array of popcorn seasonings on the counter for customers to add to their popcorn if they so choose. The staff was also pleasant and helpful, helping me with my transactions, pointing me in the direction of restrooms, and answering any of my questions. I highly recommend the Maine Film Center and I look forward to going back!

I can confirm that most of what's in the bad reviews is correct. Except the poor service part. The people working were not the issue. I think the people going there must be absolute pigs. I won't describe what I saw in the bathroom but no one making less than minimum wage should have to clean that. Also when coming out of the movie and at least two of the aisles, it looked like someone had spilled half a bucket of large popcorn. Now I understand, dropping a few kernels here and there, but this appeared like someone just dumped it. The actual theater is pretty bad. I guess I totally forgot that theaters used to be flat. It just doesn't make sense. You've got the screen 10 feet off the ground and you're also sitting eye level with the black curtain underneath it. The sound was not surrounding us. It would suck if theaters were still set up this way. In fact, with the way, people's home theater systems are now I doubt anyone would even go to the movies if it was like this everywhere. Chairs are reclining but not very comfortable. Anyway I don't live here so I'll never be here again.
