Customer Reviews
My first time there it's a beautiful work of art. I saw the Cooper Brothers documentary on the Squeegee Kids, I give it a 100!! Absolutely engaging work! Go see it!! I love the concession booth, very nice, clean, pleasant staff. Popcorn was nice and hot. Seats are large and clean, nice leg room.

I LOVE this place. I've been coming here since I was a junior in highschool over more than three decades. It's just the most amazing building and the films selections never disappoint. No other place in Baltmore tops it.

This is a beautiful, old theater fully of friendly people and I want badly to love it, but the projection needs a complete overhaul in every screening room I've been in. The picture is just far, far, far too dark, the sound is muddy, and in the last movie I saw the picture didn't even take up the entire screen, with big black bars all the way around it. Hard to make the case to watch movies in theaters when the presentation is so rough.

A great local art theater that has expanding to a few more popular films. Service is as you would expect, friendly, slow, and inconsistent but a nice experience. Theaters range from big to tiny and are always clean. Concessions is good. Buy tickets in advance and avoid some of the slow ticketing process.

Selection of movies is usually good, art house or independent movies usually. Oscar buzz movies when the time comes. Friendly staff. Funky building, theaters are a bit older as a result. Tends to keep away the cinemark type crowd as a result. Sound is a bit inconsistent. The constant shake down from homeless people has been a major deturing factor for me. I have had more than one aggressive incident with homeless people, and it's been mostly around the theater, or they start following to my car and staff doesn't seem to do much about it. One night after a later screening, there was even a homeless lady that was hounding ladies in the restroom.
