Two Screens. We like the old theater. Seats are getting a bit old, but it's hard to find the charm of an old time theater showing new releases. The newer theater is next door and offers modern stadium-style seating. Equipment has recently been updated and the theater now offers 3D movies as well. With the new equipment, prices have increased,... More

With todays economy the way it is..Im so glad there is still a place where kids and adults alike can go to enjoy movies for a cheap price. Wished I lived closer.

Have seen several shows here - the newer smaller theater is the better theater. Seats are more comfortable than the larger "older" theater... although the older theater has more character. Definitely worth a stop if you decide to catch a show!

What a wonderful old theater! And the cost was perfect...doesn't cost an arm and a leg to see a movie. Charm; vintage, and the movies were not too old...actually recent ones.

Although this venue is much older than most, without all the bells and whistles (no 3-D movies), the cost of admission is unbeatable. The seats are comfortable enough. Translation is $4.00 per movie in a theater with a smaller screen than the Regal chain and with much fewer people.

My wife & I went last nite. Old theater that has been very nicely maintained with a great picture and sound. An evening show was $6. The popcorn was very good and reasonably priced. The place was very clean without the all too common sticky floors. The only possible complaint was no cup holders. Would definitely go back.

This theater is an easy walk from town and they always have current shows playing. I go whenever I'm in Watkins Glen. Can't get a bad seat.
