    Decent theatre screen but you can tell the seats have been there a while by the worn out headrests. Pick the last 2-3 rows so you're not straining your head looking up at the screen. Parking is validated by the theatre if you park a block away at The Exchange parking lot. 4 hours for $1.

    Went to this theater to support an indie Filipino film & thought it was great! It's very clean on the inside, the seats are spacious, & they have good amenities. They also offer free parking with validation in the structure just down the street! Would visit again if I was in the area - it's important to support smaller theaters (-:

    Recently hosted a film screening here and the on-site staff was awesome! The manager couldn't have been more accommodating and helpful. The place is perfectly set up for a community film screening. You will probably have to pay for parking. There is a lot with validation that will end up costing you $1. Concessions are also interesting and varied - definitely not just the popcorn and soda type. The theater itself was very nicely done with comfortable seating and a layout that allows everyone to get a good view of the screen. Highly recommend as a place to host a screening. And really looking forward to going here just to watch one of their very well-curated current films!

    I usually visit this theater 'cause they have screenings of movies you can't find at any other theaters such as foreign language, independent and restricted rated films. The rooms are small and compact; but they have plenty of room between rows. Restrooms are nice and clean. They have a nice menu on concessions as well as the usual. Parking validation for $1 for 4hrs at N Artsakh Ave across Wilson (exchange parking lot) and there's also paid lots nearby or street parking just don't forget to check the signs.

    4.5 for a cute little movie house in town! They surprisingly offer vegan food on the menu including their popcorn (butter is optional on the side) which is a plus plus! Nice staff, clean theaters and hallways, and a great experience!

    Super clean and comfy theater

    Such a cool hidden gem. The theater is very clean, including the bathrooms, and comfortable with plenty of indie selections. Worth the higher price if you're into a quieter experience focused on the movie, with little to none of the long ads and previews at the beginning. Seems the crowd brings in true movie fanatics, at least when I was there for a foreign film, I saw zero kids my entire time at the theater, both before and after the movie. Plus they have a concession stand for your needs, with premium canned drinks and bottled waters in addition to popcorn. I'll be back in the future!

    Amazing place , very chill . A place you can go alone for peace of with a couple of friends for a chill outing and theatre that feels private like VIP status . Price affordable , I had wine , popcorn was on POINT AND FRESH. Check this place out for sure! 10/10

    Do the seats recline?

    it moves but does not recline.

    Good restaurants nearby?

    yes a whole bunch within walking distance

    How is parking here?

    BEST PARKING is north of the theatre on Maryland Ave in front of that cool art gallery called Frame of Mind. We usually like to check out their gallery exhibits after the movie. The Stanley Kubrick Exhibit is there right now and is unbelievable!

    Is seating reserved?

    Yes, they do online when you order tix

    Where is there parking here?

    Across the street (Artsakh) in what looks like a city lot

Sounds amazing... until you show up and it's already full... which was what happened. Our movie started at 6:00 PM, we arrived around 5:20 PM, and the garage was completely closed off -- they weren't letting anyone else in. Luckily, we found parking about 3 minutes away and paid around $5, which honestly wasn't too bad. We came here for the second part of our Valentine's date night and watched Wuthering Heights because hello... Margot Robbie is my favorite girl. I haven't been here in over 15 years and WOW -- I forgot how absolutely beautiful this theater is inside. The lobby is spacious, classy, and honestly feels kind of luxurious. There are pool tables, a full bar area downstairs, and spaces where you can hang out with drinks and good company before your movie. We headed straight into our theater and ordered food from our seats (also... water is complimentary, love that). We were seated in our own little pod -- super intimate with two seats, cozy setup, and yes... a blanket. It truly felt like rich people movie night. Shoutout to our server Jake, who was outstanding from start to finish. Great service, super attentive, and made the experience even better. Food-wise: The Boss Burger ($20.5) was a solid 8.5/10 -- hubby really enjoyed it. Although, there were no pickles or tomatoes in there even though it was in their menu. I ordered the Chicken Caesar Wrap ($17), and I'll be honest... it was the only downside of the night. It was a bit cold and tough, and the tortilla-to-filling ratio was a little off for me. I'd give it a 6/10. If the tortilla was a bit warmer I'd think it'll be able to hold onto the filling a bit better, but that was meh, for me. BUT the fries? Piping hot, crispy, and delicious. And Jake even brought us ranch, BBQ sauce, and extra ketchup without us having to ask twice. Overall, this was my husband's first time here, and it definitely won't be our last. We had such a great experience -- the ambience, service, and overall vibe were top-tier. Can't wait for our next cozy movie night here!

    Came on a Thursday mid day for a complimentary screening courtesy of Focus Features…read more We're always a bit apprehensive about a theater employee knowing about studio screenings so we try to arrive a little early, which we did today. Yes, he did know there was something allowed, but that a manager would need to handle it. We stepped to the side and within a minute a manager appeared and did his magic. Pleasant, professional and efficient. After the final credits rolled, we stood up and saw the uncourteous "blue hairs" seated behind us had their popcorn all over the seats and chairs. But someone was standing by to get it all taken care of. Again, efficiency. Chairs were big, comfy and reclined. The screen image and sound were good. The lobby offered a wide variety of snacks. If we were sugary sweets addicts, or into snacks during a movie, we'd probably be quite happy with the offerings. Plenty of free parking all around this theater and easy in/out with the street light right there. We would come back to this theater because of the friendly, efficient staff, comfy chairs and non stick floors. Cheers! "CC"

We couldn't get the tickets online so we had to wait in the same line as the popcorn to purchase our tickets. I was hoping there would be another faster way of getting tickets like a tablet or something. We ended up getting the tickets and decided to get some snacks. I got a single small White Claw that was about $13 which was insane. We went to our seats and the theater was very small so seats were limited. We ended up in the second row so we had to look up to watch the movie but the seats reclined so that definitely helped. Pretty good experience but not the most practical choice unless you're nearby.

We did purchase beverages today due to heat wave to stay hydrated. They gave those Coke machines that give you at least 100 options with a touchscreen. The recliner seats were very comfortable and due to the 1.5 hour run time, nobody had to sneak out for a restroom break.

I'm a loyalty member and one of the perks is a voucher on your birthday to be used for refreshments. We went to the "secret movie" last night which was terrific. Because the voucher was only good for 30 days I wanted to use it before it expired which is 30 days after your birthday. My birthday is April 12 so we were well within that time frame. The bar code wouldn't scan. Odd because our tickets scanned as they always do with zero issues. The wait became uncomfortable after two employees were unable to scan it and called a manager who still couldn't scan it. The voucher was for $15 and I wish that they had decided early on to just go ahead and process it rather than making us stand there and wait which they eventually did. C'mon guys, don't make this birthday perk uncomfortable for the guest, fix your system.

Smith, and presents a hybrid of two different styles: the exterior is Spanish Mission Revival style, and the interior is Egyptian Revival style- which reminds me a lot of another Hollywood theater- the Egyptian. I went to see Kill Bill: the Whole Bloody Affair. Unless you have "parking powers" activated, add a half hour onto your commute time to arrive and find neighborhood parking somewhere within a mile of this theater. I found a spot in a nearby neighborhood by a school. Back to the movie KB:tWBA-- I hadn't seen Killing William since its initial theatrical run, so it felt pretty new to me. THE MOVIEGOING EXPERIENCE: This movie still hits hard in a packed theater. Lots of reactions and laughs and groans, etc. I was probably laughing the hardest at how much FEET were in this movie. The seats were comfortable and that's judged by my shifting around only two times that I can recall. Thankfully this movie had an intermission to stretch during its 4+ hour runtime. I went during this exclusive December engagement and there's a lot of memorabilia on display in the lobby. There's a lot of snack and food and drink options, and it's pretty reasonably priced. Also, bring your own snacks! No one is checking bags and pockets here and the world is getting pretty expensive. The Vista is in a hip part of town and there's a lot of great eats and drinks in walking distance. We dined at Fred 62 after!

Tickets are bought online and range in price. Astro turf seating is $13 per person or $20 for two. No car parking is included (so you have to park outside the event) and you have to bring your own chair or rent one from them. Early Bird Car Entry + Driver is $28 ($20 for the car fee, $8 for the driver). Additional passengers are $8 per person. VIP is $75 and covers 1 car and 4 people for front row seating (just behind the astro turf area). Doors open either an hour or an hour & a half before showtime. When we scoped out the place, there was a sign that said exactly when the doors were going to be opened in the driveway. Since we had time (we were a wee bit too early), we went around the corner to get some grub. When we came back, we were second in line roughly a half hour before opening. Not too shabby and I definitely recommend showing up early to get a good spot (unless you're a VIP fancy pants). The line formed shortly after and wrapped around to Central. Pro tip - don't be a jerkasaurus and try to cut in line! The employees do notice anyone trying to pull a fast one and will make you go to the back of the line. Electric Dusk Drive-In is located off of Central Ave and California Ave in the old Sears parking lot. You cannot turn left into the parking lot on California! You have to enter from Central so that you turn right into the lot and don't block traffic. It was entertaining seeing so many people not grasp this simple idea. Once inside, the employees will scan your tickets and direct you where to park. If you want to back up and watch from your trunk, tell them and they'll help you out. If you're worried about your car battery dying out - bring your own radio or you can rent a transistor radio from them. If you listen via your car radio and it dies, they'll help jumpstart your car after the show. For restrooms, they provide two porta potties in the back side along with a hand washing station. If you're feeling munchy, they have a concession stand near the entrance but I'd encourage just getting your food beforehand from any eatery around the area (The Great White Hut is directly across the street). If you're thinking about trying Electric Dusk Drive-In, stop thinking and just do it already! They have a wide variety of movies to choose from (some are double-features) so you're covered no matter your taste of genre. It's such a fun nostalgic night and I can't wait to go back!

Every Friday, I find myself here, slipping away from the noise of everyday life to just sit back and take it all in. There's this familiar, almost haunting feeling as I settle in, like the quiet echoes of a simpler time when life had fewer responsibilities and the weekends felt endless. It reminds me of the freedom of youth--those days when we'd get together just to laugh, talk, and sometimes just sit, high on life and each other's company. Coming here alone gives me space to think, and maybe I'm pining for something that's already slipped away. There's a beauty in watching everyone gathered, all ages connected in the moment of a shared movie under the open sky. Couples sit close together, holding hands behind the truck beds, while kids are practically bouncing as their parents grab popcorn and candy, their joy so pure and unrestrained. This place is a gem, perfect for unwinding, reflecting, or even sharing a quiet evening with someone special. The staff here are warm and attentive, and the food choices are simple but affordable. With plenty of room between cars, you get enough privacy to feel like you're in your own world but not so alone that you can't feel the presence of others sharing the night. It's a place to escape, to remember, and to take life just a bit slower
