BEST THEATRE EVER

December 16, 2015

IT'S SO CHEAP AND WHILE THERE'S ONLY A FEW MOVIES PLAYING AT A TIME IT'S SO QUIET AND SMALL AND NOBODY GOES THERE EVER AND TUESDAY NIGHTS IT'S EVEN CHEAPER.

I love this theatre!

This may be a very small theatre but I love it. The people who work there are so friendly and greet you with a smile. Going to this theatre makes me happy and I feel at home here.

My favourite theater!

December 09, 2015

Love this little theater. Yes, it's small, and old, but it has so many personal touches to make your experience a great one. The people who work there truly care about your experience and will really look after you. I've moved away and miss this movie theater more than anything. The prices are unbeatable and the service is great!

Hate attending this theatre as you have to stand in line at concessions in order to buy a theatre ticket. Often keeps me away from this local theatre that I would like to support. This needs to be addressed!

Its Time Cineplex

September 27, 2015

Its time for Amherst to get a new Theater! Amherst would draw from as far as Wentworth, Pugwash, Tidnish, Sackville(NB) and all the areas in between. It does not draw from those areas now because of the quality of the seats, comfort and screens. It has a great staff, the best popcorn of any theater and is kept very clean. The issue is in Moncton and in Truro they have state of the art theaters so us folks in Cumberland county (as much as we want to support a local theater) end up wasting more money and travelling further. If we had an updated theater in Amherst, even if it was only 2 screens I guarantee it would be more than well supported. If you build it WE will come.

For the love of god get off your asses and put up signage! How the hell are you supposed to run a theater when you have no up-front advertising.!

very good popcorn

April 13, 2015

We are new in town and were very happy to see a movie theatre here. I speak from experience as my husband and I owned a theatre in a small town in western Canada and just recently sold it. We updated it and found a loyal customer base but of course there will always be people who figure the city theatres are better. Maybe estecially they are fancier but so are the prices of admission and concession. Amherst theatre is old yes and yes it could be updated but also take a look at the price of admission, very very reasonable, concession Is a bit high but it cost them more to purchase the goodies. Small things like a coat of paint, rehang the drapes in the auditoriums etc goes a long way. I also think having a separate area to buy tickets more appropriate, but the staff a wonderful. Please continue to support this theatre because once it closes you will never get another one. If people only realize how much it cost to bring it up to date and how much of a percentage the distributors take the general puplic would be shocked. We have been quite a few times and yes the seats are uncomfortable but for what it costs to see new movies it's a total bargain.

Too faulty

March 19, 2015

The last 7 movies I have seen at this location have had issues during the screening. The screen wouldn't come on. Screen turned off when lights went off. Curtain/blind at top of screen descended and blocked 1/4 of the screen. Volume stopped working and I missed about 10+ minutes of dialogue (I timed it). Not a very good experience for the money it costs.
