Comments: Most of the theaters are pretty good for a multiplex (it's not very old); even the little baby ones don't bother me. I've been sold out of weekend shows here several times even when arriving more than an hour in advance and I don't usually try just for a movie, but with all of the shops and restaurants up there it can be a nice way to spend a whole evening. Just buy your tickets first. All kinds of trendy stuff (weird coffee stuff, bakery, etc.) at concession stand.

I can remember a time when where we went to the movies was just as important as the movies we went to see .... From the moment moviegoers arrived to buy their tickets, there was a sense of something special, a feeling that to step inside was to enter another time and place. - Gene Kelly
