The theater looks great, the seats are all Updated. The first two rows of seats seem to be the only ones that are lazy boy recliners but the rest of theatre does have very comfort leather rockers with plenty of leg room, the rockers arm rest also lift to create that couch feel for dates. Nachos are 5 bucks so a lil bit cheaper then bigger theatre's. Security is also very tight and visible, in the lobby, outside the theatre and even in the actual theatre itself. They even watch and listen for rambunctious guest who are interrupting the movie or causing other issues and promptly remove them. I'd definitely return in the future.

Think of this as a local business with a large room, large screen, and several chairs. Very casual. The theater has a sizeable parking lot - prices on tickets are very reasonable (~$9) and concessions are very reasonable as well ($1 for a Faygo, $2 for a glass Coke, $2-$6 for popcorn). Once again - I want to stress that this a very low budget theater with minimal bells and whistles. They do not have many showtimes and not every movie is available. However, the staff is very friendly and it's a great place to stop by with friends in the local Detroit neighborhood. I give it 5 stars not as a movie-goer but as a Detroit resident happy to see local businesses supporting the community.

What's more Detroit than that? The theaters are cozy and it's such a special feeling to watch films with a community like this.

Imagine Detroit's finest theatre, The Fox, being used as a parking garage…read more Why that would be ludicrous!!! An abomination!!! Blasphemy!!! Unfortunately, this was the fate of the now crumbling Michigan Theatre. Once a crown jewel of Detroit, the theatre captured the very essence of the opulence of the city's new found wealth during the roaring twenties. Three million dollars went into building this lavish structure, and now it's decaying as a parking garage. **smh** If you're fascinated with historic buildings or looking to do some urban exploring, def pay a visit to the Michigan Theatre. It's a fully functioning three-story parking facility that you can access thru the main or side entrance. Please note, it's open to visitors Monday-Friday between the hours of 8:00am-4:00pm. You might think you can sneak past that squirly security guard, but don't underestimate him -or- the creeper parking attendant that lurks in the corner of the garage perched on an arm rest with cat in tow (à la Dr. No), as they'll instruct you to return during regular business hours.

I know everyone has said it, but there really isn't a bad seat in the house (to the point where I'll probably never pay for anything other than the cheapest seats). It is very clean. I prefer this theatre to larger ones...you feel much more involved with the show & don't struggle to hear/see, so you get all of the details. Great for a casual, cheap date. I also liked the convenience of everything downtown has to offer being right outside. Parking was a hit too- even though Monster Jam at Ford Field & another show at The Fillmore were going on, we were able to park behind City Theatre for ten bucks. Maybe it was just a lucky day, I don't know. Venue aside, I have to say that Robocop The Musical! was amazing, maybe even the best show I've been to. Impressive, clever, localized script and talented actors that made me laugh on a day when I was super sick & crabby. I am so excited about what a great night I had at this place!

The show started at about 8:10, and was over by 9:40 or so. I must compliment the theater on keeping the temperature at a nice, cool, comfortable level. It was pretty hot outside, so it was great not to be actively sweating during the performance. It was a great night.

Going to see a picture at the Senate makes me feel like I'm one of the cool kids or in on some kind of local secret. The star of the show is the organ. Don't sleep on the pre-show organ recitals. This ain't your momma's church organ. This is an organ designed for silent movies and you can hear the difference. That might sound a bit odd, but trust me on this one. But the building is also super cool. I love the way the lobby abuts the theater. There are no doors dividing the two which is just one of many classic design elements that make you feel like you're spending the evening in a different era. Same for the concession prices! And for that matter, the ticket prices. It's hard to beat $6 to get in and $2 for a drink. Of course, for these prices you aren't getting modern sound or screen quality. And while the all volunteer organization is working on it, it's the sound quality specifically which drags the Senate down a star for me. I found it hard to make out the dialog for a classic movie to which I already knew most of the words. In that case, it was fine. But my companion found themselves confused about the plot as the dialog was compromised. That said, I'm all about going back and watching as many subtitled foreign films as I can. Plus, I might just rearrange my schedule so that I can attend the next silent film played with live organ accompaniment. I fully expect that to be a five star experience. And as the Senate gets more popular, surely the improvements to the screen, projector, and sound will be close behind.

Since unable to eat before the show grabbed a slice of Little Caesars pepperoni pizza, a popcorn and a bottle of water. Of course it's marked up! Venue is cashless. Ushered to my seat and it's such a beautiful venue I spent time marveling at the theatre and architecture. There's really not a bad seat in the house. Only issue is in the main floor people stand up which blocks the view of those sitting. Some aren't physically able to stand for long periods of time and I think that contributed to me not going there. The acoustics are great, but this was a live band there was a sound issue with the opening act and again near the end of the show. You couldn't make out the words for the opening act and then everything went out during the main set. Artist Jill Scott thanked us for our patience and kept the show going. All in all it was nice not to see people recording and taking pictures. I'm sure that helps the artist stay focused and it showed we can live without our phone's!
