The recliners work quietly and smoothly, and I've never had a problem with the reserved seating. The staff at the snack counter are friendly and efficient. In general it's a bit older and some of the new theatre gloss has worth off, but I like this place a lot and I'll definitely be back. On a personal note, this is the last place I saw my sister-in-law before she died unexpectedly. We saw Wonder Woman together. Because of that I'll always think this place is just a bit special.

It makes me wish more theatres would adopt this standard. The new seats are like business class airplane seats which an electric recline that triggers at the push of a button. I would give it five stars, except some of the actual film screens still have the marks and tears of yesteryear. Hopefully these will be replaced soon as well.

The education programs and classes are well run and led by local professionals. There are several spaces in and around the theatre for classes and performances including a large theatre, black box theatre, and multi-classroom space across the street. I've even seen several outdoor site specific performances. Theatre Aquarius has served as a hub for the Hamilton Fringe Festival and is a wonderful creative place for community. Can't wait to see and experience more.

It was a wonderful incredible show!! We were so impressed with every aspect of the show; the lighting, the stage sets, the music, actors, singing and dancing productions; the entire show was amazing. In this day and age of techno mumbo jumbo entertainment; it is truly refreshing and uplifting to watch a production put on by such a wonderful group of entertainers. As I watched the production, I got the overwhelming sense that each and every performer was truly passionate about the performance. They absolutely loved what they were doing and this enthusiasm truly contributed to making this production an absolutely wonderful experience for everyone involved; from the entertainers to the production staff, the musicians and theatre staff and of course for us the audience. I will certainly be watching for future productions that I want to see with my family and buying tickets again. Thank you to everyone at Theatre Aquarius for a beautifully memorable evening!! I look forward to my next show. :)

I like taking in a movie when I am travelling. It may seem weird to most, but I have tracked down…read morethis habit back to when I did a road trip through the Maritime provinces and up through the states nearly two decades ago. It was and still continues to be fun. I had a number of SCENE points to burn. I decided to use them towards a free movie. I did a search and found this Cineplex. I redeemed my points to see Photograph using the Cineplex app. I took in a matinee. I had no problem finding the theatre. There was plenty of parking. There were also a number of restaurants around the theatre. Cool! I headed into the theatre. It is your typical Cineplex with kiosks to buy tickets, a ticket counter to purchase tickets from a human being, an arcade area, and concession stands. I liked everything. I didn't buy any snacks. I brought in a bottle of Diet Coke instead. It went unnoticed. The man scanned my ticket. He was nice and hoped that I would enjoy the movie. I used the women's washroom. It has a TV in there. The colour scheme is bright and cheerful. The sink area has pretty lighting, so you can apply your makeup or look at the dried mustard that you forgot to wipe off your face after consuming a hot dog in the dark. The washroom was clean. The theatre that I was in was spacious. The seat that I was in was comfy. I stretched my legs. The screen was crisp, although there were issues trying to get the movie's audio to start at first. All was fixed after the first trailer had ended. Patrons watching the movie with me were respectful. Yes! They weren't disruptive during the entire movie, which I appreciated. I had a great experience taking in a movie here on a Sunday afternoon. I'd do it again when I'm in Hamilton. (87)
