Newly updated seating, sound and screening sure do enhance this classic theater. I always love coming here. The staff..the ticket sellers, takers, security and the concession people give this place a heart...and distinguish it from other newer venues. Something sentimental about coming here, even looking for a parking spot on the street. If you dont drive, its one of the few that has a bus stop in front of its main entrance. I love the place.

Super Comfy, lots of legs space , watch the movie basically like on a bed, perfect if you have a baby they can lie on you and the price is like any other Cinema for a better experience. The only downside is either getting lucky and finding a parking on the street or just paying for a Valet.

Small cinema but really nice! Comfortable seats + nice staff. Take Safety measurements during the pandemic and you can choose where to sit. (Every seat is 6ft away from other visitors)

They show first run movies, mostly with an English sound track, but with Spanish subtitles. The theater seating consists of large reclining seats. The concession stand has the typical selection, but is not excessive overpriced. But beware - the AC works really well, so you will want to have a jacket (or blanket or firewood to build a campfirewith you as it will start to get chilly about halfway through the film.

Lovely art deco era cinema that has been modernized and runs first run movies each for about a two week period. Take a blanket though, because it is as cold as a witches nipple.

Is outdated but overall if you want to see a brand new movie without the hassle of a big crowd this is a great theater for that not gonna give five stars cause parking can be a bit of trouble unless you want to pay $4 in the private parking thats nearby still is a great place to catch a movie.

Everyone complains about it because its small and they dont like it because its not located inside a mall but I find it extravagant. Its never crowded, prices are much better than thr cinemas at the mall and its comfortable.

Smaller than your average theater but usually doesnt get overcrowded like other locations. Great if you want to see a new release with less traffic.

Nothing fancy, nice low key theater with reasonable prices. Might get a power outage during a movie but it adds to the experience.

Pretty nice experience, actually! Too bad the back of the seat was a bit broken/wobbly, and, as usual, parking was an issue, but, other than that, it was pretty nice.

My wife and I decided to go watch a movie during a rainy afternoon, it was actually late at night :-), and were pleasantly surprised. Customer service was great, snacks and goodies were as expected, Place was pretty clean and the seating was very comfortable. Now the movie we watched was a local movie made by mostly Puerto Rican actors and it was absolutely funny and great. We had a wonderful time. Would highly recommend

If you just want a no frills theater to go watch your movie in peace, this is the place. Tickets are cheaper than the other theaters, but thats because it doesnt offer all the new goodies like 4D, etc., that newer theaters offer. Best place to watch blockbusters without having to worry about the show being sold out. It really is a hidden gem.

Might be old lieu and just about a year ago after a hurricane hit the island tho, but some investment to restore and refurbish wont hurt anybody, actually will enhance the experience for the visitors. The seats are crooked, bathrooms definitely need some care! The fact that they keep the old fashion ticket vending method its kinna nice for me tho, but people is everyday more high tech! Come on this is a prime location in a tourist zone!

The only bad thing about this theater is that it is small. I suggest the last seats close to the doorway.Aside from that, its great. Its SPOTLESS, cheap, and they sell alcohol. What else could you want?I cant comment on the popcorn because we didnt get any, but the nachos were good.The seats are comfortable and recline back a lot.Theres a girl that goes around taking orders once youve sat. No need to miss the previews nor the movie.The sound system is on the loud side so do wear earplugs if you have sensitive hearing. Had I known, I wouldve.I highly recommend this theater if you are in the area.

The movies was nice, clean, and affordable. Prices were amazing low compared to New York. 2 tickets were about $12. A large popcorn and 2 sodas were around $9. I watched it, in English with Spanish subtitles. It was cool.

Love it. She compared to the mall theatre large and rowdy crowds, this small, local movie theatre is relatively quiet, even though it is located in the heart of the city residential area.

The theater is beyond dated, but surprisingly clean and the service is good. Great place to catch a flick in the Condado, Miramar, Santuce areas.

Great place, one of the oldest movie theater in PR still working with modern projection screen technology. NO PARKING at least, no free parking and you have to walk to the nearest.

Charming old 3 screen cinema. Good sized screens and awesome sound system. Good variety of snacks and drinks. Just a crying baby in our movie that they did nothing about kept them from 5 stars.

Small theater, but very big auditorium, soft chairs, very comfy. only thing is they only accept cash, so be prepared for that. I was really impressed by their snack bar, they had burritos, cake , pastries, and all sorts of REAL food

Went here for the Met Opera. Too pricey... $25 per person. Good for one time. Food attendant was rude. Bought a hot dog. The picture had cheese on it, but she did not want to honor it. Not worth the fight

Convenient, clean, respectable theater. Not the most luxurious, but I loved they were playing an obscure selection from the Queer Film Festival next to a mainstream selection (Thor), and the crowds seemed comfortable to be mixed. Its a pleasant walk from Condado, although pedestrian crossings are not all perfectly marked.
