A while back, then theater was owned by one of the chains. They left and let the place go to ruin…read more But, there was a comeback. A local family bought the theater and restored it. The family has invested in Highland, and Highland invested in the theater. Tickets are a steal at $6 (add $1 to book online) and if you go on Tuesdays, is free popcorn night. How can you go wrong? The service is friendly, they are trained very well, and the pre movie announcements are fun. Don't expect Pepsi or Coke here. It's better. Excel Bottling provides the drinks (Ski, etc) and the usual suspects for candy are all there. The popcorn is so good that if you don't come on Tuesday, you'll buy it anyway. Finally, these are first run movies that are played. If you're having prob,em getting into the chain theaters, come here. You may have a bit of a wait, but you'll enjoy the movie. It is not stadium seating, but the screen is off the floor so it's not a big deal, and it sounds great.

One thing I love doing during my free time is going to see a movie. Having the Orpheum in my…read morehometown to go to is a blessing. To start off, it is owned by an amazing family who takes the time to get to know their customers personally and make each person's experience the best. From funny preview commercials made by the family members to midnight premiers with special guests and fun events--this family has truly found a way to make movie-going enjoyable for all. The Orpheum itself is old and quaint, but I love that they made the space cozy and enjoyable with couches, booths, and two big screens. What baffles me still today is that a movie ticket is only $6 and this includes a soda and popcorn. That. Is. A. Steal. They bring in family friendly flicks and do special features every now and then as well. If you're traveling close to Litchfield or Hillsboro and desire to see a new movie, I highly suggest coming to the Orpheum for your experience!

It is great how someone from the staff gives an opening statement before the show, and at the end, they often stand by the front door and hand out mints. How cool is that! The owners are also community minded and offer shows for the school children as a field trip. That is great! This is such a unique building, and has been tastefully updated. I certainly encourage you to support this business every chance you have! We want to keep them around for years to come!

I just moved to Edwardsville two months ago (from St Louis) and was looking forward to checking out…read morethe local movie theater since I finally had one extremely close to me (it's like a 5 minute drive!). So, as with most things, I hopped on Yelp and was shocked with the low ratings and reviews. Nonetheless, I still planned to check it out, I still planned on having my very own experience. I've been twice in the last month and was pleasantly surprised. Firstly, there was ample parking both times (I went to evening shows). Once inside, things were clean (although I haven't checked out the restrooms yet), the temperature was comfortable, and the popcorn was good (you can add your own butter and such!). The employees were also pleasant enough - I'll take that. The seating in the auditorium I sat in the first time was more comfortable than the second, but nothing unbearable. The screens and sound were of good quality too. Side Note: Predator: Badlands was AWESOME! I allow grace for places of business to have an off day at times, fully realizing if that "off" day just so happens to be each and every time you've patronized it then that's probably just the norm. But I also recognize that these days especially , it's hard to find and keep decent employees, and that has a trickle down effect. Anyway, this may not be a fancy theater with reclining seats or call-buttons to order from your seat, but this movie theater is a solid option to catch a movie if you're okay with those things.

I headed over to the concession stand where you buy your food as well as your tickets. I cant remember exact prices but I know that I spent under 20 dollars for a large refillable popcorn and a movie ticket. The theater really looks like a older theater and in need of some upgrades which I think that they were in the middle of. I do remember the seats being on the smaller side. The floor was sticky in the theater but that's to be expected. Overall regardless of the aesthetics and outside appearance it served its purpose.

The bathrooms and theaters themselves are always very clean, and shows start right on time. The popcorn is delicious and they have lots of candy and drink choices. The prices for food and drinks are about typical prices for a theater experience. I really enjoy that you can use the app to buy movie tickets and food and drinks before you arrive, if you choose.
