Reviews of Rainbow Cinema Cobourg (Movie Theater)

Janice W

I love the "new" theatres. Seating is perfect for little ones. Can get a little noisy if a party is going on, but the staff is friendly and welcoming!

T Dillon

We are very fortunate to have a movie theatre, and I hope the community will make an effort to ensure they stay in business. Use it or lose it.

MP Bath

Great little theatre for our small town. Happy and polite staff.

Angela CB

Not what I'm used to but was close for my mother. Hopefully rainbow will invest in recliner seating especially for the older people who would be more comfortable. Popcorn was great movie was great and the company I was with was great????

David Robson

Excellent experience!

this is the end

Great small Cinema's with comfortable seats. Not busy normally

David Ellis

I loved my experience at the cinema is was one of my best

Dean Holmes

This is our go-to theater now. There are Cineplexes 40 minutes each direction from where we live and this one is 20 minutes away, but we love it! Whoever says the staff is unfriendly must have given them reason to be. They have always been top notch, polite and helpful. It's always spotless in there and their popcorn is the BEST out of any theatre around. It's very comfortable, not too loud and never so busy you have to worry about getting a good seat.

Jonathan McBride

Friendly staff. Seats could be more comfortable but the ticket prices are reasonable

Katelyn Luymes

Great staff, Great prices :3

Judy Smith

A good place for seniors to enjoy a movie. A good selection of films, some shows are early for those who don't like to stay out late and Avril who sells the tickets is very nice. They often set up two lines one for people using their cards to buy tickets and the other for cash ticket purchases to speed things along.

Gary F. Patton

Uncomfortable, poorly-padded arm rests detracted from my enjoyment of the movie.

Barb Williams

Fantabulous!!

Rob Liebregts

Kinda nice going to a small theater. Not too busy, OK seating and screen. All around good feel and atmosphere.

Sharon Delanty

I have been to this theatre a few times and have always enjoyed the experience. The seats are comfortable and the picture is quite good, even for this baby-boomer’s eyes :) I do find the sound a tad loud, but that could just be me. I would have given 5* but the popcorn and treats are a little pricey. The ticket lady is friendly as are the staff at the concession counter and the ushers. All in all, a nice, small-town theatre that has a good rotation of movies.

Michele Mitchell

Theatre was clean. Refreshment concession well staffed. Wheel chair accessible with support staff seating. Sound was good

Don Antonello

Took my son for his 1st ever movie. We had a great time. Staff was great (lots of questions because of food allergies). Theater was also clean.

Dawn Niemi

Very friendly young lady served us our tickets and snacks, boys love coming here ????????

Jimmy Pesto

Yummy yummy, good movie, good popcorn, great staff! Yummy yummy yum Yum

M Harvey

Much better than any cineplex I've been to. Staff are terrific. Most first run movies. The prices can't be beat. Seats are very comfortable. Great selection of show times, some are 4 times daily. Have I said enuff?

Damien Trompezinski

Friendly staff and really nice local theater. I enjoy watching my movies on a big screen and this is an amazing local place to go to. Human size theater always clean and specially now perfectly safe to go to with the sanitary measure in place. For people complaining about the price of snacks, you have to understand that movie theater don't make a lot of money at all with the admission. Everybody has to make a living and it is perfectly fine with me. (I have to say their popcorn is absolutely delicious)

Lyssa Jamie

Love the seats, comfy and the arms raise up.

Bill Hagemeyer

Comfy seats

Nigel Davis

Good for a small town theater but definitely not the best

Herb boughner

Good theatre and very reasonable price and comfortable seats.

David Kroeger

Great local theatre, improved projection and sound but the seats need a little more padding for my taste. I bring a pillow!

Spark Toys

Love our local movie theatre. Very supportive of the community and a great place to see the latest films.

Ken Sears

went to the theatre on Tuesday Feb 22 nd. afternoon to see a show advertised on line as a 2pm start - when I arrived the place was closed. If they schedule a movie and cancel it without informing the public, that is a poor business practice.

Holly D

It is a movie theatre. Pretty good prices, decent theatre, somewhat minimal movie selection. The paintings here are...interesting.

T H

Just had a bad experience with this movie theatre staff reminded me of zombies didn't say too much or just looked out of it

Cassandra Fisher

Great movies clean theatre

Head Waters

Current movies, great theatres and toppings for the popcorn!

CrushedGaming

Awesome movies and a great selection always something that everybody likes great food and fair prices. Students pay $9 so it's perfect for friends

Bernice Hache

Good service and they are quick

Ricardo Cummings

Ok

Asif Mian

My worst theatre experience ever. Rude staff, smelly theatre rooms, sticky floors, and an overpriced snackbar. The only thing that could save this place is the cheaper ticket price, but I would gladly pay the Cineplex rates for the much more enjoyable experience. If you have no other option for a theatre I would recommend only to go on Tuesday as they have a discounted ticket price.

Amanda Struz

Great prices and always a good movie to watch.

Donna Brooks

Love Rainbow cinema.. Roomy seats.. Great atmosphere

Zo Za

Phil Mandryk

Great staff and great movies.

The Shredder

Theater is in better shape then its ever been. Projectors are all new and crisp picture!

Mary McCandless

Terrific! Nice space, nice people. Love the smaller theatre venue. It's intimacy makes you feel like you're part of the movie itself. Also, the price is inviting. Highly recommended.

Mark Biddle

Quick service, reasonable prices, clean canteen and seating area too. Comfortable seats, booster seats for kids. Very nice place!

L. J Braun

A little outdated but the prices are fair!

Loonas B1tch

I was looking forward to seeing Love Simon for weeks now and when i see that they aren't showing it i was shocked. Why wouldn't you show such a ground breaking film.. just because its a gay love story?

PAUL SMITH

Great staff.

Stucretivity

I Found The Staff Very Friendly and Patient

Clive Hawkins

Very pleasant staff a good experience

Sandra Pearson

My granddaughter and I go here all the time..we love it!!

Jamil Velji

Tills closed 20 minutes after the movie. Couldn’t buy any snacks and no water available. Seats were uncomfortable. Theatre was relatively empty. Staff were very friendly and personable.

George R

Great little theatre.

Joan MacNeil

Fast 'N Furious - starring the late Paul Walker From the very beginning of the movie, our eyes and ears in every sense, were glued to the screen. Mixed with humor, not a person left the theater disappointed. Fabulous...! My husband, Gord and I, enjoyed it completely. It was dedicated to Paul.

Anthony Whittingham

Hidden away deep in the bowels of a vast, endless, user-unfriendly strip-mall...

Theresa Clark

The theatre itself and the service provided is good. Large enough cinema showings. But most definitely they need cleaning. The smell of stale butter is old.

Laura Franks

Older, well kept and looks like renovated 3 screen theatre. Upstairs in the mall therefore easy free parking. Easy and accessible parking, never seen a long lineup. Can get tickets at the box office or with your snacks at the counter. Very friendly and helpful staff. Seats are not reserved but are individual with cup holders on both sides and the seat backs move back some. Good amount of leg room between rows and the screen rooms are not really large but not small either. A nice not crowded place to go see a movie.

Linda Wilding

Reasonable prices, comfy seats & so close to Port Bkpe

nancy massie

Small cinemas, excellent seats, great popcorn and surprisingly always first run films. We love it!!

Rosemarie Brown

First time to this location. An off smell to the room. You could hear the sounds from the other movie room. As well as the trolley cart outside of the movie room. The opening and closing of the door to the movie room. Very frustrating and the staff should learn to smile! Not willing to go back!

Janet Warren

Love their $5 Tuesday!

The CannaWitch

Our local cinema. The seeting is comfortable and the screens are large enough. Snax are a fortun but that's how it works. Tuesday is "cheep night" and the discount is very generous.

Phillip Clarke

Good clean and friendly people

sam likopulos

The Rainbow Cinema Cobourg is just a small theatre. But it's large in the great service and friendly staff the pop corn is a must try as it's always fresh.

Chris Wakelin

Best theater in town ;) Great popcorn.

Ricardo Cummings

Ok

John Klein

Always enjoyed the reasonable cost when compared to other theatres. Staff is very friendly. Wishing the seats were more comfortable.

Corey Geddes

Nice little local joint to spend an hour or so.

Samuel Hall

For a theater in Cobourg, they're doing a great job. That being said, it's a Theater in Cobourg. Take what you will from that.

Tara Smith

It's an older cinema, so don't expect reclining seats... Don't expect ridiculous prices or lines either!

Cavan Kelly

This is a great little theatre. It's clean. The staff are friendly and helpful. And it's the only theatre in town. The concessions are overpriced but that's not what makes it a terrible place to watch a movie. The blame for that can be placed on the large percentage of patrons who are rude and inconsiderate. As an example, we went to see "Sully" on Sept. 13 but completely missed the interviews with the actual participants in the events depicted, which were shown at the end of the movie. People stood and talked in front of us while others made a racket walking out. Many people would have liked to enjoy the final minutes of the presentation but had it ruined for us. A suggestion for those involved in this nonsense: If you don't know how to behave in a public theatre, please wait for the DVD and watch at home.

Sandy Gillan

A great selection of movies and the kids love it. The seats are the old style and fairly uncomfortable. Theatre 3 always smells like puke, Theatre 2 always smells like urine, haven't been in Theatre 1. Wish Cobourg had a Landmark or Cineplex...

melyssa hewitt

The rainbow cinema is a wonderful place for younger kids and older kids and alduts lkve the movies the rainbow cinema puts on there screen ????

trev leduc

Service is amazing...staff is friendly and helpful. Thank you for giving us a safe family fun place to go.

Naomi Harper

Great

Sam Wiggans

Very friendly staff, nice upgrades since it was purchased. Good local theatre

Eric McStravick

I really like this cinema. Staff are friendly, prices are better than the other guys, and they go the extra mile. Had a handful of food, they carried half of it to the seats with me so I wouldn't need to come back (second time they have helped me with this.)

Joni Glover

Nice theatre!

Colin Davis

Super friendly staff, low prices, lovely theatre. So glad to have this cinema as part of our community. Will continue to go here for years to come. Our kids love it.

Brian Hays

Like smell of popcorn

Crystal walker

Lauri Rusk

Excellent small town atmosphere.

Klaus Rohrich

For a home town movie, this is among the best! Great prices, friendly value and good movies make a worthwhile and enjoyable evening out.

Vernon Hotte

Nice and clean..and quiet

Justan Smith

This Cinema is okay for the most part it's clean but the food prices will reach deep in your wallet so make sure you bring a wad LOL good luck and enjoy the show

Katie Morewood

We've loved using this theatre the very the last few years. Yes, it's small and very quaint, but they have new releases and decent prices. The only issue for us is the lack of later shows on Sundays, as it's the only time we can go.

Josh Rvn

Fantastic! Great experience with excellent quality screen, audio and comfortable clean seats. Nice to go back to the movies!

Michael Garlick

The theatres could use an upgrade to seating. Nice old theatre with some character, just a bit uncomfortable in the seats.

Matthew Werenich

A wonderful little theater! Friendly staff, cozy atmosphere, and the opening little "Rainbow Cinemas" videos they play just before the movies are the BEST. The theater is really generous; I work for an organization that the theater …

Howard K

Clean, well run. The covid pandemic put a damper on the whole experience because of the lack of snacks but a good experience anyways.

Tracy Harding

Great value, friendly people. Thank you!

Marek Kutrowski

Great staff, great prices and good quality, it reminds me of what it used to be like going to see a movie. Seats are extremely comfortable as well, I always enjoy myself at this theater!

Marie MacLaughlin

Love this movie house in Cobourg, staff just great and seats soooo comfy, I go about 3 times a month every Tuesday afternoon to early movie. Keep up good work Rainbow Cinema, keep getting new movies too.

Shelly Cruickshank

Took my granddaughter to see Peter Rabbit 2. The staff were so friendly and helpful very good experience.

Ethan Cummins

It's a okay place I wish it was a bit bigger but I do like it IMG_1137.PNG

Robert Hardie

A wonderful theatre for our small town with digital projection, great Dolby sound, and comfortable seating at less cost and with a friendly staff. The “grey crowd”, myself included, make “Cheap Tuesday” a weekly event.

Susan Pallister

Friendly staff. Discount Tuesday bonus. Comfortable seating.

Derek Sawyer

Hidden gem in a small town. Nothing fancy but I love taking my son here on cheap days. Get to watch all the latest movies at a great price. Bathrooms are also immaculate which is great with a young child. Popcorn is good too, destroyed 2 bags during Wreck it Ralph.

Jay Wilton

Venom movie was awesome.

Karen Rous

Popular local theatre showing newly released movies.

Jeremy Cloutier

A little dated and run down but I saw star wars so it was worth it

Winter Texan

Super friendly staff. Concession prices ridiculous!

Tim Hodge

My favourite place!!
