    When I reserve the seats online, I hate they charge the "fee"…read more I think this Cineplex theater has more lively atmosphere and youth gathered.

    a few months ago, my girlfriend asked if i wanted to join her and some friends to watch bts in a…read moretheatre. i said yes immediately, i'm in my "say yes to everything" era. i'm no army. more of a hangers on, i barely know all their names, mostly there for the popcorn and to experience it all. we went to cineplex cinemas metropolis on a crowded saturday, 12:30 pm meetup for a 1:00 pm showing. the escalator up was out of order, so we had to hike up the stairs, already slightly winded before even getting inside. the theatre itself is standard. no automatic recliners, heated seats or vip seating, just basic rock back seats that do the job but not much more. dynamic pricing brought it to $23, which feels a bit steep. i got a large popcorn, which is tradition. so apparently, the event was a live stream from goyang. the theatre was packed, every seat filled. when the lights dimmed, the room didn't go quiet so much as tense up in anticipation. and then it started. the screen filled, but the room filled faster. people brought their army bomb light sticks (not included in the price of the ticket). when bts appeared, people were screaming, and they started to sing, and dance in their seats, waving their arms and glow sticks. the energy hit before you even fully processed what was happening on screen. at some point, it stops feeling like you're just watching a concert. the theatre becomes part of it. it's loud, a bit chaotic, and pretty stuffy at times (people were even coughing between songs). this isn't a fancy cinema experience, no vip, no comfort upgrades, no footrests, but the crowd completely transforms it. not the most comfortable theatre, but honestly one of the most unexpectedly fun and memorable experiences i've had there.

    Came to SilverCity Riverport Cinemas and had movie snacks from Outtakes. I usually get popcorn and…read morethe usual movie snacks but I was feeling something more filling so decided to get outtakes. I got their chicken buffalo poutine and donuts, both of which were sooo good! The poutine was so flavourful and the chicken was crispy and saucy. The donuts were soft and they gave a caramel dipping sauce on the side which made it even better. Both the items were freshly made which definitely added to the taste. Giving one star less because the bathrooms in the cinema weren't clean despite there being so many stalls. It was the last show of the night but I've been to other cineplex and none have been this bad. The only time I come to this location is if I want to watch a bollywood movie!

    Hubby ordered a Chicken Burger combo meal for himself, plus a poutine for our daughter and I to…read moreshare, and we had coupon for a free medium bag of popcorn. I was very happy to learn that the gravy on the poutine was vegetarian so I'd be able to eat it! Not an awesome poutine but it was better than I expected. Think I'd have preferred a larger serving of it but...it's a movie theatre and not a Costco so I guess I can't really complain about it! When I went to get our popcorn the person working at the counter asked me if I'd like to add butter or not. It costs extra for them to add butter so I took the popcorn as it was. Funny thing is...this theatre has dispensers where you can pump your own butter on to the popcorn. Why would anyone pay extra to add butter when they can pump the butter themselves for free?! From previous experience at a different SilverCity, they did ask last time whether we'd like to have the butter layered. So...I guess having different layers of butter throughout the bag as opposed to just one layer of it on top might be just cause for charging slightly more but...is it really worth an extra few dollars more?! The popcorn seems to already be kinda buttered already even without asking them to add butter or dispensing the butter yourself. I could see that some of the kernels were white and some were more yellowish from having butter on them. Service: Good Parking: Plentiful and free

    Terrible service…read more There are two ticket machines out side of door but one of them's transaction machine was not working. I was almost late for movie time and there were long lineup after me. I was sure everyone were so frustrated not to catch the movie on time. I talked to the receptionist/cast member but she was busy for dealing her smart phone (don't bring it at workplace especially while you are talking to the customer) Three hours later, after I watched the movie, the transaction machine still had no sign like out of order. Even they haven't opened physical ticket booth. One other cast member was just walking around telling "Thank you for coming". It doesn't make any sense and no help at all. They pretend they were doing best without any effort.

    i actually kinda like this theatre for what it is, low key, never too crowded, and just chill. the…read moreseats are comfy enough, they gently rock back, but don't expect footrests or full on recliners with swivel trays, it's not vip. the a/c hits that balance, cool enough to keep you comfortable without needing a cardigan. tucked inside tinseltown (aka international village mall), this place feels like a bit of a throwback, the mall is dated and rarely busy. it means shorter lines, easy parking, and a calmer vibe overall. with nine theatres and a decent sound system, you're still getting a proper moviegoing experience without the frills. plus, it's close to chinatown, t&t, and a food court if you're craving something other than popcorn. but if you are in a popcorn mood (mandatory at movies for me, regardless of how full i am) theirs is solid (but can be a hit or miss). on this visit, the popcorn was warm, freshly popped, and not too greasy. washrooms were clean, no long line ups, and yes, free underground parking with your movie ticket stub. the movie lineup is diverse, from big studio hollywood blockbusters to indie releases and foreign films. not fancy, nor flashy, but dependable, comfortable, and a great spot to catch a movie.
