Rutgers Cinema is my go-to movie theater. With unbeatable prices (I believe lowest in the state)…read moreand the most newly released films, it's really a can't miss spot. If you have any Rutgers affiliation- current student, alumni, professor, staff- just show any proof of affiliation and you'll receive a discount for you AND all the guests with you (even if the guests aren't affiliated with Rutgers). I recently visited to watch Reminders of Him and the cinema worker said even showing an email from Rutgers would suffice for the discount deal. Love this spot and being that it's on Rutgers' Piscataway/Livingston campus, it brings back so many memories of being a student there. You can buy tickets on their easy to navigate website (added fee) or in person. I've never experienced them to sell their tickets out, if you're wondering whether to buy in advance or at the cinema.

Years after my last visit, Rutgers Cinema remains mostly unchanged, for better or worse. My most…read morerecent visit was to see one of the Spider-Verse movies and my experience was largely identical to the one documented in my 2016 review here. Show listings here are limited to at most 3 movies at any given time and include new releases, old releases, and/or occasionally recordings of live events (like the Swift ERAS Tour which costs a hefty $19.89 for admission). The stiff auditorium seating and standard surround sound are adequate for shorter 2D movies, though I personally wouldn't come here for features longer than 2 hours. The lack of proper ventilation in the three theaters here become very noticeable an hour into any movie, when you can both feel and smell the stagnant body heat of 40 people seated in a closed room. The combined miasma of body odor and popcorn is so unbearable at the 90-minute mark that I usually have to leave the screening after two hours, if for nothing else than to use the restroom at the end of the hall before three dozen other kids try to do the same. There are some concession-related promotions from Monday thru Wednesday, but the only remotely bearable part of the Rutgers Cinema experience is the $5 admission with student ID (or $0 thru certain special events) which is primarily meant to cater to students with no cars, no money, and nowhere to go. For the general public, your local AMC or even your home theater system will be overwhelmingly superior.

I am writing to share a very disappointing experience at the Regal Hamilton Commons (Trenton area…read morelocation). Our group of 17 people attended a screening of Dhurandhar in Theater Room 1, and the sound volume in the auditorium was excessively loud to the point of being physically uncomfortable. More than 6 members of our group developed headaches during the movie, and several others expressed significant discomfort and dissatisfaction. The volume level was not just Immersive--it was Overwhelming, Harsh, and Disruptive and Unsafe, making it difficult to enjoy the film. I personally went to speak with the manager 8 minutes during the screening and was told that the volume would be lowered. Unfortunately, it did not seem that any meaningful adjustment was made, as the sound remained excessively loud for the duration of the movie. 4 Hours long. Additionally, many other guests in the theater were also expressing dissatisfaction with the volume level, which makes it clear this was not an isolated concern from our group alone. A movie theater experience should be enjoyable and safe for all guests, but the sound levels during our visit were far beyond what would be considered Reasonable or Safe. This issue affected a large portion of our group and turned what was meant to be a fun outing into a very disappointing experience. We strongly recommend that management review and properly regulate the audio levels in Theater Room 1, particularly for screenings like Dhurandhar, to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for all customers.

Fantastic location . Right on rt 1 .. lots of restaurants around .. good parking spots outside …read more Lots of Indian movies get released here .. good and neat inside . Audio and volume levels in some screen was too low . Service was fast .. expensive inside .we generally don't buy much inside . We went to an Indian movie in RPX last week and it was very good . Reclining chairs were very comfortable : loved the experience in RPX . Liked it overall.

The theater is well-maintained with great stage lighting and impeccable sound quality, offering good acoustics for a rock performance. However, the lack of public WiFi and dead zones in certain areas, like the ladies' room, can be inconvenient. Street parking along the street is convenient, and concessions are available at the entrance as well as a small bar offering reasonably priced drinks. Merch tables greet you upon entry, making it suitable for small shows.

If I could give this venue - recently established as a Live Music venue - "0" stars, I would. It's…read moreinteresting that - as of this writing - the new management has not yet "claimed" this business on Yelp, but if they eventually do, I hope this review remains on file. I was surprised, then anxious to see how this VERY TINY, old movie theater would work as a new concert venue, but then I was quickly discouraged by the fact that the new management had FAILED TO PROVIDE HEAT for a concert they were presenting in the dead of winter (February 24). Remarkably, during the intermission of the show I had attended I had the extraordinary opportunity to chat quickly with the lead singer of the band that was performing at the particular program I had attended. Shockingly, he immediately shared with me the fact that he and his band had COMPLAINED to the management about the lack of heat in the theater and that the management had "blown them off". How contemptible and unforgivable is it that the management was unable to provide as simple and amenity as HEAT for a live music concert in the dead of winter? If you have read this far, I strongly urge you to RESIST the temptation to patronize this location - unless and until they show enough respect for their patrons to provide heat during the winter.
