Reviews of Norwood Cinemas 3 (Movie Theater)

Brian Maher

Lovely place. Cosy, extremely friendly staff 3 large viewing rooms with updated seats and digital equipment, yet still have that 1949 look and feel.

Bryan Johnston

A throwback to a simpler time. 3 screens. Get the kiddie combo at the concession stand, regardless of your age. It's an excellent value.

Jane Spencer

Great small town movie theatre style. It gets new releases right away.

Jay Patel

Sorry guys its time the town puts up a Cineplex you guys are never open except after 7 or the weekends and when you have kids it just doesn't work.

Emu Tresh

Not always the best movie selection or the comfiest of seats, but they try there best!

Izidro DaSilva

Marvelous local theatre

Jason Foreman

Star wars was awsome..sat really close

Dennis “DMACZ” Macaso

This is an old school theater and I love it. You get to feel the old theatrical type watching. The price is cheap for the movie and food. Great way to enjoy with the family. Always drop by Norwood when you are in Bracebridge.

Robo

What a great theatre! Super friendly staff, great popcorn. I loved it.

Rachael Ryann

The theatre itself is good. However what appeared as the management staff tonight a blonde woman with glasses was extremely rude to myself and my husband. I have sever food allergies and had my own popcorn with us. We were purchasing popcorn and drinks for my husband and she informed us “ YOU CANT BRING IN OUTSIDE FOOD”. Now. I haven’t had any problems ever. With large or small theatres once I explain i have allergies. I politely informed her I have allergies and she again said “ I don’t care you can’t bring in outside food “ It was very embarrassing. I asked if they provided gluten free popcorn as I am celiac. She said “ it’s kosher “. Not seeming to understand. It’s just unfortunate to treat a paying customer with such disrespect. Especially as we were purchasing other items for my husband. Just be warned if you go here and you have any food allergies or medical conditions , you won’t be made to feel just like everyone else. You will be isolated and made to feel stupid by this particular woman. The rest of the girls were very kind. Especially the girl wth dirty blonde hair and braces. Lovely.

This was a really cool little theatre, family owned and operated, but it felt like a night out at the movies from when I was a teenager. Long aisles of sloping seats, upturned closer to the screen. Not the current cineplex style "cram 'em in" multiplex.

Court M

Older theater with a small town feel. No cineplex but charming.

Roland Smith

Typical small town theatre. Clean and well managed. They only accept cash which is a bit of a pain these days.

Michael Walters

OK place to watch a movie. Service very friendly

Jon Hey

Nice little old school looking Cinema. Perfect fit into the quaint town of Bracebridge

Heather Adamson

Classic, warm old school!

Jesse Whiteside

Updated to all digital screens and Dolby surround sound. Only three movies playing at a time. Cheap night is Tuesdays. Can be extremely busy during holidays and summer. Great to see the theater still around.

Jared Bond

Great little movie theatre. Great prices. Cash only, so keep that in mind!

Owen Allen

Gertrude Gilbert

Great service

Graham

Prices are good, it is a family owned establishment and very nice quality

David Bolyea

Nice little theatre

Jeanne Tucker

The movie was great and the seats were adequate. The theatre was packed! This thestre is fine if you just want to see the movie but if you want a real "experience" you will not get it here. Better to go to a Galaxy or other such theatre.

Frances Jones

This is a great theater that takes away the need to travel to a big ciniplex. It has a great selection of movies at a reasonable price.

cute small town theatre. its been family owned for the longest time. only has three screens. coolest feature is the single seat rows.

Mike Ketch

This is a very cozy theatre

Kyle DaSilva

Small theater with weirdly amazing audio and visual equipment

liam Patenaude

I'll never lie the only time I've been let down there was when I got caught with candy. Even then they let me in. The nor wood theater is a great place to go highly recommend two all of the people in muskoka

Neil Archer

Quaint little theater nestled in a great town.

Ryan M

Great cinema. Charming atmosphere.

Daniel Deschamps

Movie was great but the air in the building is stale and towards the end of the show it's worse. They need to upgrade ventalation.

Karan Bajwa

Reminded me of being in the 90s it was nice!

Erin Kerr

A gem of a movie theatre. It's a classic, old school one, right down to the marquee. The concession stand is reasonably priced and the popcorn is ???? ????

Cody Labelle

Awesome and unique theatre, owners are super nice too!

GLENN RUBINOFF

Nice cinema with comfortable seating!

Jeffrey Smart

Value packed family fun.

Peter Kaleb Theodoropoulos

I have been going to the Norwood Theater for about thirty five years. Great atmosphere, great people. It is family owned and operated, movies are seen on top of the line digital projectors, and it's a class act. Culturally speaking stories gave birth to the beginnings of civilization and they maintain a central and key element in the evolution of culture. Stories tell us how to assess, what to assume, what not to assume, how to predict, how to grow critical and most importantly how to enjoy the entertainment value of stories that ask us to confront our realities or give us a potentially much needed escape from those realities! Get there early in the summertime, it has a tendency to fill up often, especially with the summer blockbusters which only adds to the community atmosphere of the place. The theater has only the finest selections of movies, and is a staple in our community, People should make it a priority to go out and see films much more often and support our fine Bracebridge businesses! The theater frequently and regularly brings people into the town core and lends appeal and attraction to the downtown business complex of Bracebridge, Ontario. Oh don't forget to try the popcorn and chocolate bars and pop at the concession stand, but once again get there early, because there can tend to be lines and you don't want to miss even the trailers of your movie! It's one hundred percent entertainment!

Laurie Ballentine

Saw a great movie

boipelo mpuchane

I love this small cinema, the staff there is very nice and helpful. I love the movie rate too, soo cheap!

Matthew Wyjad

Love this place. Good admission price, lots of movie selection. No its screens are not as HUGE as the Cineplex, but when you start watching a movie you forget that very quickly, abs it's nice not to have to whip your head around to keep track of what's happening on screen.

Alli Parliament

Perfect small town Cinema!

Angus Murdoch

The staff are great

Nancy Wun-Morton

Small and old but very well maintained and friendly staff. Has the latest movies. Reasonable prices. They had every other aisle blocked so people were spaced out.

Jay Labelle

A great throwback cinema, especially great on rain days up North.

Stacy Orr

Great place, friendly staff, highly recommend!

John Forsythe

Small screens in long, narrow theatre, noise leaks in from the other movies.

Cameron Clement

Fun

Khaleed Khalfan

Great little theatre. Bring cash.

In this day and age the theater still only accepts cash. No debit card machine. An ATM is located inside. Smells musty and outdated.

Blake Foord

I like monkeys

Garret Patenaude

Fantastic! Theater was spotless

This place is adorable! Very old movie theater feeling! Quite enjoyable and the process didn't feel outrageous!

Small town movie house

Eva B

Great old theatre and good popcorn. Reasonable prices and not crowded.

Elizabeth Harden

Bracebridge is lucky to have this great little theatre with 3 auditoriums though a bit tired looking. ❤️

John Cooper

Being the only game in town has never prevented the Mitchels and their staff from offering great service at very competitive prices. Our little town is very lucky to have such a great little movie theatre.

Scott Skeletor

Small theatre. Cheap prices. Poor lighting though. They need to dim the exit signs so that it doesn't reflect off the screen

Susan Cvar

i think we as a community should hold a fundraiser to help them bring the place to date

Chris Ashby

Great small town feel. Authentic for sure! Locally owned, great friendly service, comfortable and clean theater. I would have liked the screen to be a bit bigger but that's probably because I'm spoiled by the huge ones in Cineplex! Much more affordable than the major theaters, cheaper tickets and reasonable concession prices. Overall a fantastic experience.

Emma Clare McGee

The price is not bad (only $8 - $10) considering it is in cottage country not bad at all. It is cash only but there is an ATM that you can use there and really that adds to the retro feel. Really only thing is that they don’t have that many show times. But that really pushing it for things. Love it here.

Brenda Hodgson

A quaint theater with very comfortable seating and a good place to enjoy an afternoon or evening out.

Gareth Seltzer

The Norwood is unique for many reasons. First it shows first run just released films on three screens with Christie Digital technology which means it competes with the big boys on quality. Small communities have centres - places where the community meets itself. In Bracebridge, that centre is The Norwood (there is an alternative argument that it is the Canadian Tire - but I think it is The Norwood!). The concession stand is full of residents and cottagers, seasonal and full time greeting each other or talking about their day waterskiing. It has a charming character to it that suggests that family night or date night from years past is not gone and is not forgotten. It is "us" that has to remember to embrace it. And the best place in town I can think of to enjoy a film and a night out is around The Norwood. Hands Down.

Fyonna Vanderwerf

Support local business. I do wish there were healthier snacks.

Chelsea Giffin

The cutest place to spend some quality time with your loved one.

Thomas Harrison (tektite)

Classic old style theater. Perfect fit for Bracebridge.

Alex burke

Super quaint and friendly. Good service and refreshing from the usual Cineplex experience.

Shawnshaunseanshon Good times in Muskoka!!

Needs better seating,sound etc....I understand its a older cinema, but the amount of money they make there could be used towards a upgrade to a few things

Bruce Reville

Great staff at Norwood Theatre.

Kyle Richardson

Great small-town classic.

Adam Palubiski

Great old time feel theatre.

Cindiana Jones

It's small and family run. Best movie theatre popcorn ever. I love the new HD video of Muskoka that they play before you watch a movie. That's home!!!

Erin Allan

Awesome staff

Reg Fitchett

Quaint little 2 screen theatre. Nice place to go to see a movie. Sound is good.

Samuel Leese

Really great popcorn. Friendly staff

Greg Wiley

nice to see a small town cinema still around with friendly people and great service.

Lea Garrido

Favourite place to catch a movie.

Mitchell Said

This little theater makes a great addition to the town. I've seen quite a few movies here. This location offers a handful of screens and a small concession stand that offers a large variety of snack and beverages. I never find the theater to be too crowded. Overall the drive out here is well worth it for a fun movie night with the family!

Graham Stratford

It's clean and the people are friendly. Not fancy, but comfortable. The theatres themselves are narrow and the screens small. The audio is good, although loud sounds seep through the walls from other movies. It's not the ultimate experience, but there are no alternatives in the area so support local independent businesses!

We love the Norwood. Family run, always a welcoming atmosphere.

Alice Bunt

The Norwood Cinema 3 always has a great selection of movies. As newly permanent residents of Muskoka, we regularly go there to see the latestmajor realeases. The theaters are clean and comfortable and the staff are friendly and courteous. So glad to have the Norwood nearby.

Jeff Fowler

Great first run shows in a small town

tavis mckenzie

Cozy

Janice Barclay

Our favourite theater. Always clean and friendly!

Marc Ducharme

Good theatr.

Tonia Schell

Clean and friendly atmosphere

Scott Packham

Charming old fashioned style theater with the newest released movies playing.

Tom Stehr

Staff and owner extremely gracious and friendly. Cozy old time feel to the venue however, the seats, which are critical to an enjoyable evening are somewhat lacking in their comfort. Seat comfort is the only fault but is a serious one, hence the 4 star rating.

Dave Kinlough

It's a fun place to get out of the heat and see a movie. Don't expect a big city experience but the price is reflective. 3 kids and 1 adult for under $40.00. Warning though, it's CASH ONLY so stop by the ATM beforehand.

Christopher Melbourne

For a small town movie experience the Norwood has great welcoming staff and 3 good screens to watch your favourite movies on.

Beverley Gerhardt

Great movie theater. It's always a pleasure to go there.

Jessie James

Makenzy Reid

Awesome little theatre. Always a great experience here. Felt very safe with the measures in place.

dragon heart

Seen in movie "Christmas at Grand Valley" a 2018 Hallmark movie. The movie has Danica Mckellar-"Winnie" from "The wonder Years" and Dan Laurie "Kevin's dad" from "The Wonder Years". He plays her dad in this movie.

Sarah De Valadares

I haven't been here in years but I was surprised at how well kept and maintained it has been in that time. Good price as well and the food wasnt as overpriced as it is at the larger cinemas. I think I will choose to go here rather than drive to Orillia to see movies from now on.

P Burton

First run films in a charming theater

keith a

Best theatre, feels very historic

Vanessa Richard

Lovely local theater. Staff is super friendly. Popcorn is great!

Jacob Nussbaum

The showtimes are good and the theatres are arranged well enough. Not great for big groups of people. The pricing at concessions is quite good though for movie theatres.

Valerie J. Tingey

$10 tickets, comfy seats and small town cinema awesome all in one spot. Saw "It's a Beautiful Day in the Neighbourhood" with Tom Hanks and tho I didn't watch Mr. Roger's as a child, I now have a great deal of respect and admiration for who he was!

Brandon Aitchison

Great staff, comfortable seats. Amazingly low consession prices.

Brett Carson

Since when is "only 3 movies" running at a time a problem. It's a small town theatre that shows up to date movies. Better than driving to the city any day

Avante Security

Great cinema especially for the price. Real buttered popcorn without stupid price.

Aidan De La Giroday

Great small town theatre that has an awesome vibe to it, highly recommend visiting

Carol Baker

Good experience, although it would have been better if the seats were staggered.

Diane Mackenzie

Great place and great fun!!!

Viv Beaudoin

It's an old theatre in Bracebridge but shows up to date movies

SM SM

Can't compare with those big box cinemas. Located in Bracebridge with 16k population. Small but good sound quality. If you want to make a .45 minute drive to Orillia these is a must large cinema. No complaints though

Barbara H

Excellent theater.. always showing a good variety of the hit movies.

Bradley Waddell

Lovely local cinema. $10 adult ticket. Love it!

David Burgin

Great atmosphere awesome staff

maryann kyle

Steve L.

Fun old school movie theatre with updated (lowback) seating. Note: Cash only for tickets and concession.

David S

Poor sound, you hear sound from movie next door

Gail Cosgrove

So happy that this wonderful theater survived covid! Brian is great at getting the latest movies for us to enjoy × we sure appreciate his hard work ???? thank you ????

Chris Wilson

Lovely place, polite staff. Thin walls, you can hear the next movie pretty easy.

Angela VanDerLey

Great little theatre. Friendly staff. Only three screens.

Carol Taylor

Great theatre in Bracebridge. Has films that Orillia Cineplex does not get.

Christine Fluney

Spinning Reels are awesome!

cheryl mainville

Love this cozy family run theater. Attended Jungle Cruise with my kids last night. They loved the experience as well. Popcorn was fresh topped with real butter!

Andre “Dredre” Parks

Amazing comfortable theatre. The price for admission is excellent. However the snacks are way overpriced. Some kids get 20 dollars as an allowance to go to the movies. They buy a ticket but by the time you buy a pop and popcorn the are lucky if they have enough left over to buy another drink to wash all that popcorn down. If the prices for the snacks were more reasonable then I would give it a full 5 stars. Until then it is what it is!!
