Roxy theater is a gem in the world of big box stores and mega movie theaters! I watched The Hobbit…read more3 over the holiday season, and was delighted with the service. First off, if you're looking for a 10 screen, 5 showings each hour place; look elsewhere - the Roxy has only 2 screens (multiple titles alternate in showings). But "quality, not quantity" is the result. The Roxy reminded me of how a night at the movies use to be: * reasonable prices - $10 regular ($7 matinee and Tuesday's) * no price gouging concessions. I got popcorn and a drink for under $10 * intimate showing (seating for 100 or so) * old Hollywood motif in the lobby. Though the Roxy has the old Hollywood charm, the technology is not lacking. The interior is up-to-date, and it's screens & sound are on par with the big chain theaters. I applaud you Roxy as you bring charm back to the Silver Screen experience!

Went to see what could be the biggest movie of 2015 here (Star Wars, The Force Awakens). And for…read morethat experienced the good, the bad, and not so ugly. I heard this was a cool, quaint and original type cinema so was excited to see this movie in a theatre so 'raw' For starters, went for a 1pm matinee, there was a decent line of people waiting to buy tickets, there was only one attendant working the box office and even being half an hour early, and only about 10 people back, I started being concerned I would make it in, in time for the movie based on how slow the attendant was working. Positive point was the matinee was only 7$!! OK only took about 12 long minutes to get in, so there would be 18 minutes to grab concessions and a seat. Seeing the line for popcorn, decided to grab seats first, and I would venture back for snacks after a seat was acquired. Thankfully we did, as the theatre was rather full (two birthday parties) Went back to the popcorn line which was longer than when I entered the theatre, 15 minutes to showtime approximately, three people working the stand.... I know it is not rocket science to move popcorn and soda, but at points all three are serving one customer. More than once. Thankfully people were getting fed up and leaving the line due to the excessively long wait, so moved up bit by bit. I watched one person take an order, repeat it to the person who was next to them, who likely heard it as clearly as I was hearing it, who then would delegate either the popcorn or soda to the third, and fetch the other item themselves. If I did not have my five year old son with me who would not survive a movie without popcorn or drink, I would have ditched this ludicrous situation and stewed in my seat popcornless. But... Got my fresh popcorn, real butter, and soda (two orders actually) for the amazing semi low price of 22$ in a big theatre, that basically is the cost of one order. So into the theatre, one minute after 'start' and the previews had not started. I guess they knew how long the popcorn line was so they delayed the previews maybe 8 minutes. The seats were big and comfortable, semi reclining. With a fair bit of leg room. So that was a plus, and the had a seat booster for my boy, do another plus for that. The movie looked and sounded great, no 3d or imax or collosus or whatever but it was a pretty good experience. Maybe some more experienced staff when dealing with a movie this big on the first matinee of the Christmas break in opening week.. Will definitely go back for another movie, another times and maybe the overall experience will be better for for now I will only say it was alright
