REVIEWS OF Cineplex Odeon International Village Cinemas IN British Columbia

Carlos Taylhardat

Only place with free parking in downtown Vancouver, easy, clean - best kept secret for movie goers.

aaron vanstone

Good theater not very busy but not alot of food choices

Kurtis Smejkal

Great theatre for smaller indie and foreign films. Sadly doesn't have any VIP theatres.

Ana Campos Santin

Love it

chris sternagel

Nice facility, one of the better in the city, we go to movies frequently, one week till 1 every two weeks, including places we travel to. This is one of the nicer cleaner movie theaters we've been to. Actually had a difficult time under Fandango finding a decent movie theater and we're glad we found this one.

Noel

Management there is fantastic. Tina (manager) is very friendly and personable. Location is great too. My only thing is that there seems to always be something going down there whether it be homeless people sleeping in the theatre or something similar in nature. That is not the theatres fault though, as I expect that this would happen in the area it is in. I like the location but it is going through gentrification of sorts.

Heather R

My fav Cineplex theatre. Always has the small, foreign or arthouse films. Also close to transit

Nerdmaid Faith

Not as many amenities as other cineplexes but still a nice place to catch a movie.

Jamie Bowman

Great. Free parking if you're seeing a movie or just dropping in for 2 hours.

John Alexander Fedyk

One of my favorite movie venues - always excellent film presentations. During the Vancouver International Film Festival, all the Volunteers help things run even more smoothly and the atmosphere is eléctrico and lit.

Robbert de Groot

One of the few reasons to visit this mall, which is still very dead. Theater is pretty good though.

Jeff Thorlacius

Stadium seating, plays a lot of indie and festival films along with smaller budget films and ones that have been released for a while. Pop machines that serve many (50?) flavours, although on my last visit most were out of gingerale. Free parking underneath. In a ghost-town of a mall on the edge of the poorest neighbourhood in Canada.

Bradley Doering

Great theatre for international films or Sundance films. Lots of theatres are available and it's not usually too busy

Garth Sylte

Average theater but the absence of proper air conditioning turns the theater into a sweaty oven by the end of the movie. The free parking is the only plus about this mall. It has to be the most run down nasty mall in a 3 hour radius of downtown.

Paul S.O. Barbeau

This place is a dump. It's embarrassing just how bad it is. It's dirty, tired and empty.

Kalvin W

It's quit here and easy to get to with SkyTrain. There is only 2hr free parking in the parking lot

Martin Ruest

It was amazing to try the VIP section for the first time. There's a lounge before the theatre where you get to relax and have some drinks and food. After you settle in the comfy gigantic chairs that reclines, you will share a table with the seat next to you so you can keep drinking and eating while watching the movie on an amazing screen and two real surround sound

Steven Kuo

Not as busy compared to other theaters in town. Doesn't offer as much choices in shows.

Ro S

A convenient location to watch movies. Pretty clean location. Recent upgrades with comfortable chairs.

Rodney Newton

Saw a free movie, ' Fist Fight ' in theatre # 10. The medium popcorn was fine. This theatre has a simple machine, by pushing a red button, any customer can add unlimited topping to their popcorn for free. The audience laughed often at actor Ice Cube, he played teacher, Ron Strickland. One warning about the movie, the profanity is excessive, especially the ' f-word '.

Steven Green

Good theater, pretty empty

Robert Makela

Comfortable seats, great sound, large screens. Easy to take in a double bill

Deniz Bilgin

The staff is friendly. Concession is a little small for the number of auditoriums they have.

Ryan McLeod

They show some great films here. Not always just the blockbusters. Some really good indie films too!

Peter Vickers

Nice theatre close to sky-train and other stores which you may want to check out.

Nina Halliday

I like watching movies alone. So when I have a free evening I might binge on seeing 2 movies in a row. They less Hollywood, Independent Films and some Foreign. I avoid horror. Also this International Village participates in the International Film Festival.

Patrick Maberry

I only go here where the movie I want to watch it’s only available here. Kinda dirty and old.

Matt Kerr

Great place for us to hold a private viewing of a new release. Well organized staff and management.

Numii Namii

It’s not usually busy and full. The staffs are fantastic!

Kamal Bhardwaj

One of the best places on this side of Yaletown to catch the latest movies. Specially on Tuesdays as the prices are cheapest then. Bang for your buck. Comfy seats. Lots of options from regular to 3D. Very convenient location. Best to unwind on a Tuesday after a long day at work. Do not forget to use your scene card to collect points.

NC DeeBee

nice little theatre with what you come to expect from a cineplex, my kid likes the arcade and air hockey as well, there is elevator or large escalator options for getting upstairs for your viewing, friendly staff, clean place

mona. Le

Good, nice and cozy theater. Food court is convenient at the same place.

3 1 5 7 3

Clean. Still able to purchase snacks. Not busy or overcrowded.

Christopher Bolton

The seats were really tiny and the bathrooms were disgusting. At least the movie was good (Parasyte) which has no bearing on my rating. Gave it a 2 because it wasnt the worst theater Ive been to, but pretty close.

MEL Levrault

All the small time movies play here and second run. I love this theatre for that. The chairs are fairly comfy and less seating per theatre means more room for your legs and what not.

Mark Benda

Lots of movie choices great sound and comfortable seats!

Luke Minaker

Good theater. Much less busy than the other ones nearby.

saptarshi mallick

The experience was good. We went to watch Godzilla vs King Kong. The seats reclined okay but the mall actually closed at 9pm. We sound and the picture quality was good, me and my wife had a good time there. One of the few movie theatres (cineplex) in downtown. Given a chance I would go back to the theatre again as the tickets were also on the cheaper side ($14).

Alexandra Andrews

Great service and comfy seats. Couldn't be happier.

Ron Hatch

Free parking, good movie selection. Not the variety of food you see at some other theatres, or newer seating types, but there is a foodfare and lots of restaurants.

Marc, Noah, and Chantah Maynard

No restaurants, small screens. Would not recommend this theatre.

John Graham

Kind of surprising that in a nice theatre in downtown Vancouver that there would be so many people making noise and disrupting the movie. It wasn't just the two drunk guys behind us - there was another crazy guy doing a dance in the aisle, people talking loudly and so on. One of the staff came in to talk to the drunk guys but they started up again after he left. I wanted to watch the entertainment on the screen, not all the crazies around us!!

Robert Sutherland

Noticeably less crowded than other theater options in Vancouver. It is an older cinema, and doesn't have all the bells & whistles you'll find at other Cineplex theaters.

Nicholas John Ellan (Nick)

Theatres are 20th century technology sorry guys RIP. The Rio gets to survive tho

Alan Lee

The place I go for films if I'm in the downtown area. (I find Scotiabank theatre parking not nearly as convenient). International Village Cineplex has free parking for moviegoers, a food court to have a quick bite before/after a show. Speaking of shows, Village goes for variety, not just multiple screens running the latest Disney release. I often need to come here to have a chance of watching limited release artsy or Indy films, just today: Dark Waters. Got to see Upgrade and Backcountry here too!

Jérémy Durand

Many auditoriums to offer a wider range of films than the ScotiaBank theater

Sepideh Sarajian Maralan

The cinema is okay but the building is so depressing.

Hannah De Jong

Worst movie experience ever. Took over half an hour to get a ticket. Only one machine out of several was working. No one seemed to care.

Michael Malihan

Good selections of movies, have also some arcade but not a lot though. Overall very good.

Anna Judge

Took my kids to the 1st movie of the day and the theater was a mess. Popcorn all over the floor of the aisles and garbage in the seats and cup holders. All of the electronic kiosks were either out of service or giving errors. Gross experience.

N W

This theatre is located in Tinseltown and is conveniently located near several great restaurants (Taishoken in particular). Most of movies I've watched here are not as busy as other Cineplex locations. The seating is dated but you forget you're in an older theatre once the movie starts. The underground parking is free for movie patrons so do not worry about paying a dime if you drove. Just don't try to exploit your free parking by leaving the mall and visiting other locales.

Simon Cunningham

Good location. 5 star for the free parking and cool balcony studio

Tristan Lake

So nice to be back in theaters again, and this one happens to be one of my favorites. Often showing movies no other theater would and supporting many many many foreign films, this theater always has a unique list to choose from. A great place to go for a show, and their covid regulations are on point!

Stanley Park

Have been going to this theatre essentially since it opened in 1999. Was recently there for a Saturday showing of 3 Billboards. ( Little tip for everyone that is unless you like sitting elbow to elbow in a theatre) Wait a couple of months for all of the hype to die down then hit up the movie. Was a Saturday showing with an Academy award winning actress and the theatre was essentially empty. Just as I like. Made my way to the balcony level first row and was enabled not only incline my seat but able to put your feet up on the divider wall. The reason for the 3 stars is it's location. Yes it is within walking distance from the sky train station 3 minutes. But I call the mall that it is in the mall of death. Filled with nothing more than junkies sleeping on the benches and old people staring off into space. Oh ya and closed stores as in shut down completely. I am sure anyone who has been to this mall knows what I mean the vibe given off. Accessing the mall via Keefer street is all fine and good but if you go out the West Pender exit..... well you will get a taste of Vancouver's dirty big secret. What really can you say about a theatre the lights are so dim in the place you can't barely see where you are walking.Does have the new addition of being able to mix and create your own coke branded drinks. The seats are average but if you get a chance to be in a theatre that has a balcony I suggest the first row since being able to recline and put your feet up is a big plus.

Saleem N.

great theater, free 2hr underground parking. Theater is located in a mall so plenty of food option prior to your movie

Kerri G

Great cinema.... great location and kept nice and clean. The seats and comfortable (unlike the Scotia Theatre where the seats and springy and uncomfortable)

Jay Z

Super busy lineups I guess due to being in downtown, not the newest theater I've been to. What I like and dislike at times is the unassigned seats. You can sit wherever you want when you're early but it sucks when you are late.

-D. gorn

Awkward parking & going thru the mall to the elevator/escalator. Under staffed. Good theatres & seats.

Eugene Wong

Meh, the other cineplex theaters have better sound. Also you can feel the vibrations from the other rooms

John Baah

Probably my favourite Cineplex theatre in the lower mainland. They always manage the perfect balance of more popular and smaller, more indie offerings when most theatres tend to skew heavily in one direction or the other.

Jessica Hong

This theater definitely needs renovations. The seats were worn down but the overall theater space was clean. The movie selection here is not the largest and the greatest since they don't play the largest blockbuster movies here. Service is average, but it didn't seem like the employees were happy. It's located in a considerably sketchy area, so be careful by locking your car doors if you're parking downstairs (free parking) and not leaving any valuables in there. Also, as other reviews have mentioned, avoid the McDonalds downstairs.

Prettech Canada

I really wanted to give this theater A4 but the atmosphere isn't clean.

Kelsey D

Always a good place to go instead of Downtown, close to a Skytrain and easy access by bus. FREE PARKING! I never feel this cinema ever fills up or is too busy.

Jodie Southwell

Good theaters, seats arranged so views are good.

Ana Maria Hernandez

Was ok, needs to be properly cleaned though. I didnt want to put anything on the floor due to it being sticky:-(

Adu阿杜

A rather lovely cinema (great decorations) in the city of Vancouver. Easy to commute by bus, and a SkyTrain station is rather close.

Darlene Wong

Very reliable movie venue. Comfy seats, lots of leg room. Good sight lines for any film. Individual cinemas are well marked and easy to locate. Option available for purchasing tickets using the self serve kiosk one floor down near the food court if there is a long queue at the box office.

James G

I work there so

Stefan Dalen

This theater is very nice and the seats are comfortable. There is also an arcade which is kind of cool.

Michael H

It's a good place to watch obscure movies as they're willing to exhibit more independent movies than other theaters. …

James Allen

Clean, always free parking if going to a movie. The food court has a couple nice surprises mostly the Thai restaurant we go to everytime we see a movie is great.

Shonna Hill

My favourite place to see a movie in Vancouver. They often show art house and international films. The seats are comfy and spacious. Easy to get to on the Skytrain. Reasonably priced tickets.

Jodi Jackman

Free 2 HR parking, super cool cafe with cats to visit!! (Catfè)???????????? Not too crowded...

Dejan Kulpinski

One of the best theatres in Greater Vancouver. Half reclining seats. Not too busy. Older crowd...shows some indy movies and documentaries although far less than under old ownership.

Jennefer Boudreau

They have kiosks to purchase tickets in advance 1 floor below. The theaters are a bit smaller than at other locations, but it doesn't change my experience much.

Terri Y

Not many people come to this theater so it's not as crowded at Scotiabank on burrard. Watched how to trian your dragon here and loved it. If you are hoarding Cineplex points, can use it towards free movies and $5 discount on food (500scene points)

Giancarlo Taguba

Great seats but sometimes there are people talk during the film and that REALLY irratates me but other than that, the theatre is really clean.

Emi Baeza Martinez

Never to full. The theater itself is fairly new which means the seats are great. Staff is friendly. Great place if you want to avoid crowds. Sometimes plays old movies which is great.

Fleur Marlyn Teng

A good cinema with nice eateries just outside the theatre. It was a weekday when we came, so it was really quiet and I truly enjoyed it. The place was clean and security is good.

Didier S

This Cineplex is very convenient, located in the very heart of downtown Vancouver near Chinatown and the skytrain station. You can watch your favourite movie in a confortable chair, enjoying a large bag of popcorn and a good sofa! Hi he staff is friendly and helpful!

Rhonda Davis

They only have regular theater food (use it out back menu where I live). The building however where it is located could use a face lift.

Ladislav Smetana

I went here to watch Captain Marvel. The cinema has everything you expect from a cinema. No less no more.

Doug G

Shows a good mixture of movies from blockbuster to independent and many from around the world. Something for everybody!????

Cameron Matterson

Awesome theater. Over priced food (as usual.)

Robert Leupen

Always been one of my fave places to see a movie. Nice staff.

Steven L

One of Cineplex's smaller venues. What it lacks in size it makes up in the quality of its staff. One thing, Cineplex really should improve the quality and variety of food there. There is a food court in the building but you can't bring it into the theater legally, which is a bummer.

Sian Colman-Black Belding

Great spacious and selection of movies Photograph: West Side Story 2021 Movie Musical

Jennifer Mcdougall

I like this theatre. People are always friendly. The seats are comfortable. Movies are great. It makes you forget your in the middle of the city.

Darkraven33

Staff was friendly and efficient. Popcorn wasn't very good and seating wasn't very comfortable.

Clayton William

Man we need to come here more often the seating was amazing. Spacious and not as busy as other theatres. Came to see Toy Story 4 here. Will definitely come back to see more movies

Lori Austein

Because I wasn’t sure how to give it 0. Huge line-ups. One kiosk open. You don’t find out until you’re upstairs that you have to go to the bottom to use kiosks. 2 of 3 kiosks not working. Late for our movie. Not pleased.

Barney Andersen

Wow, surprised to see this place still standing. Figured it'd be gone by now. A testament to its strength as a movie theatre I think. No major issues. The night we went the whole point of sales system was down so only accepted cash. Kudos to the workers that had to pull out some old school calculater skills.

Terry Curtis

This is a nice movie complex and free parking for cinema patrons. Seating is done in away where everyone gets a good view, sound is good too.

Silver Stevens

Eva was my counter server on my last visit to the theater. I appreciated her sincerity in customer service and her ability to have pleasant conversation about films. I would like to see more representation of people of color at this specific location as this is the primary historical demographic this community has served. It is Chinatown and historically had a huge Indigenous population as well. I would be more eager to attend this location if that was represented in the front line of this Cineplex.

Karen Rochelle Hamilton

Good selection of box office hits and global independent films. Doesn’t get overcrowded even outside of the pandemic.

Kirklan Macapagal

It's very disappointing today. Went to watch a movie at international village today. And mid-way to my movie the fire alarm was set off again. This is second time happen to me. I been only in this theater twice and it's a low down if the fire alarm gets sets off regularly.

Ryan S

Other than the food court, the mall is very dated and is comparable to Coquitlam's Henderson Place.

Sarah H.

Very nice and big cinema. On-site parking. Part of a mall, so you can do some shopping before/after. Wide variety of choices for drinks! Only minus: paying for parking was confusing. Supposed to be free for cinema guests (during time of the movie). If you come earlier, you allegedly have to pay but Impark states the first 2 hours are free. Different staff were giving us different information.

Wei Kung

The screens are pretty small for many auditoriums. Plus their TimePlay keep crushing... so many missed points that I could have earned. The theatre is old in general. They could update the decorations a bit.

Rob Hoff

Comfortable seats great staff

trevor kenny

The website sucks and is super hard to navigate to buy tickets. For the money they make the should try a little harder to make there website more user friendly. Right now it's down and it won't even load. What a surprise.

Jeff Heron

I had my first experience at this movie theatre and I have nothing to complain about one bit. I went to a tues late night showing of "Crazy Rich Asians" last week all alone on a spur of the moment visit. There were only approx five or six of us in theater prob because this movie has been showing for a very long time, since August I believe. I was very impressed with the ticket pirce which was only 8 dollars and change!!! Very affordable,at least I think this is alot cheaper than most other nights of the week? I'm not too sure about the prices of popcorn, soda, treats, etcetera cuz I didn't purchase anything else besides the movie ticket. Definitely going back at those rates for other showings in the near future.

Tru Ndn Bling 3132

One spot inside the actual theater (#6) smells stronly like pee. Up where we were sitting was fine, you'd think they would rug doctor it or something. I love the seats though, very tall person friendly, bathroom was clean but could use another one or more stalls.

Bradley Milton

When I was there for an afternoon showing, there was a huge line-up for the ticket office and only one ticket seller. I had to purchase my ticket using the app. If it weren’t for that, I wouldn’t had time to grab anything from the concession stand and make it to see the beginning of the movie with limited seat selection. The movie itself had the usual TimePlay before anything else. There were a couple of advertisements, which was pleasant, followed by a few movie previews before the main feature. I believe the movie started right as promised which was very rare for a Cineplex experience. Everything else was great. Seats reclines and are very much like the seats offered at Cineplex’s UltraAVX screens (pleather-like material, cup holders folds up for more arm space). Washrooms were clean and tidy. Concession stand was quick and offered fresh popped popcorn unlike other Cineplex theatre where the popcorn stood behind a plexiglass display case. This theatre was quipped with the Coke Freestyle machines so the flavours of your favourite coke & Mr Pibb are here!

Buddcar Cook

Pretty large place. Comfy seats and the theatres aren’t to large. Nice friendly staff. Lots of free parking available.

Mommylove Mommybites

As a first timer in Canada, it was a great experience to watch a movie there ????????

Christine Tan

Free parking, clean theater and washrooms. Great seats, plenty of leg room. Nice staff. Can arrive 15-30 minutes and still have good seats.

Gurpreet Kaur

Theatre itself is nice but the location is not very great. The ground level and food court level smells really bad ????

Richard Jones

Today I wasn't too happy at this movie theatre. Because I explained to "heather" at the front desk, I would like to watch the movie "Hollywood Abbey" for 9:30pm. And she deliberately gave me a different movie which goes by the name of "Once upon a time in Hollywood" at Auditorium 11 for "9:00pm". How rude of heather to do such a horrible horrible thing to her guest. You can imagine the rush I was into as well with a medium drink in my hand, with a small popcorn and two hotdogs. It was a mess ☹????????. Only to realize I got into the wrong theatre and missed half of the movie which I actually supposed to watch when I first arrived there. Long story short, I got back my money's worth refunded back into my account. Overall great movie theatre indeed I really enjoyed the fact they have an elevator all the way up towards the top of the movie theatre. It's really close to the basketball court. But horrible horrible customer service on "heather" part????????????????. She really ruined my movie indeed... Boooo????????????.

kaen valoise

This whole mall, and theatre, always have an air of desperation about them. A sort of desolate drowsiness. But that's probably what I love about it. The popcorn's too greasy, the staff is too bored, but who cares? The movies are big and loud and spectacular, and you often only have to share the theatre with a few other people, which I also love. (Though it might not be the best business model!) The best part is the eclectic programming: Hollywood blockbuster rubbing shoulders with international indie. International Village, indeed!! And I dig it the most.

E Cao

A classic theater that was built in the 1999. A lot of retro aspects from the 90s and less patrons than other theater. The washroom are much cleaner than other Cineplex location. Also free parking in mall and conveniently close to skytrains.

Bora Yenal

No security ! We got locked in the mall after movie. Took 15min to get out. Dirty and not organized

Nathan Fralick

Movie started late, many of the seats were broken including a whole row that was loose, pretty much got kicked out once credits started. Maybe don't schedule your movies so close together or don't show 30 minutes of commercials before it starts and you won't need to rush people out.

janice pongos

The cineplex here is pretty good it’s like any other theatre you would find

Sergio Tellez Galindo

Enjoyed myself so much (went alone). Watched The Farewell, sweet movie. The popcorn were bomb and they serve you a lot, don't matter the size. They also have a bunch of sodas to pick from but one of the machines didn't work. Snacks are more expensive than the ticket as usual.

Sherif Tarek

I personally am not a fan of cineplex, in comparison to landmark cinemas,...but if i have to review this location, it would rate low in uniqueness ( except its location, which is very strategic)

Andrew Poland

Was crazy busy, half the self service machines were out of order. Line to buy tickets and line to get in are in a tiny area so everyone's packed in. Once you get through that there's lines to get food, then more lines to fill up the drink. Took 30 minutes to get through everything and I bought the tickets online.

Danaca Lapp

I love this theatre, lots of character. Walking through the mall to get there is always a treat because it's so weird and kind of dated (the neon everywhere). The escalator to the theatre itself though is terrifying.

Andy Youssi

Late at night, I went out to the lobby to discuss a concern with a manager. It was after all showtimes had started, so the lobby was cleared out. After several minutes of looking around the theater, I couldn’t find an employee anywhere. There were open doors all over the place to concessions, back rooms, etc, but even after poking my head in to ask if anyone was there, absolute silence. Where’s the staff?

Leo Augusto

Good location, near the Stadium station. Room was pretty small, but price was fair. Long line-ups for popcorn and drinks. Rooms not often cleaned between sessions

leigh budd

Cineplex now losing its edge... Place was a mess, no more refills on popcorn, still can't reserve seats.

Chris Haines

Terrible. They have zero idea how to operTw a movie theatre. Massive line just to get into the theatre after you buy tickets. No other Cineplex theatre has this problem. Then there was a second massive line to get into the theatre. They …

MJ M

Nice theatre with comfortable seats. Different movie options than Scotia bank theatre. Free parking in the mall. The popcorn bags leak butter though, which I found out the hard way, so don’t keep popcorn on your lap or seat :(

Daniela Galidor

I like coming for movies that are nowhere else near me. My only complaint is the automatic ticket service is one floor down instead of on the same as the cinema.

Shoc Wave

A little older but still a very nice cinema with stadium seating

Saeed Ashrafinia

Clean movie theater in a sketchy area of downtown. Additional star for the reclining seats

suramya khilnani

Does the job fine, nothing too fancy

Dan McIntyre

Went and saw a screening of Creed 2 here, and was blown away by the professionalism and staff. Great experience. I don't really ever go to this mall, or this theater, but was delighted by the photos and classic quality of the hallways, and …

Leo Cheung

Spacious theatre. Short elevator ride to get there. Great staff!

Daniel Will-Harris

The theater is OK. The parking is horrible. You can get a ticket just for seeing a movie. The sign from the theater says don't pay for parking. If you don't, you get a ticket. $80. It's insane. Take it to the manager and they MAY be able to fix it. Ridiculous.

Earl Flormata

Another decent theatre. Maybe an upgraded VIP area, but not sure if the neighbourhood fits that toe of service level.

Ivonne Vargas

OK to go and watch movies don't show anywhere else but still I prefer more my local cinema place... Fifth Avenue...

Patrick Leong

Good theatre with a great selection of movies.

Judy Chartrand (CREEGAL)

I don't know if they have fleas or bed bugs, but every time I've gone there, I've gotten bit. I went this past Sunday and same thing again...got two bites on my ankle. Sad because the entire theatre is carpeted, even the walls.

Vanessa Croissant

Great movie & clean theatre!

Momo G

Great vibe and service definitely coming back to this restaurant we really enjoyed the tasty food they have and looking forward to try more!!! Our waitress took care of us 100%

Dan Whalen

If you buy tix online and can't make it (traffic or anything else) they won't allow a credit. Had a similar problem at Scotia Theatre and was no problem to credit or see next showtime.

A.M. Wolf

The theater itself is in need of a renovation, and it's up on the top level which takes longer to get to than it should (slow elevators). But this theater is the Cineplex that is more likely to have less mainstream films, which is wonderful!

Corinne Whitford

When myself and my son went to watch a cartoon 2ladies and one man were getting verbally aggressive and I stuck up for myself and my son! They were telling him to shut up because he was laughing and having fun watching this cartoon! Come on!! A cartoon with older people and a man in his 40s! So the Cineplex gave us a free entry card for our next visit plus viewed the people and told them not to go to baby/children movie because they will see children laughing and having fun! Thanks Cineplex ????????✌️

Bartley Scruggs

I've been here to watch a movie, which was a great experience. I also attend church here on Sunday at 10am which renews and restores me for the week ahead. I would encourage all to attend both service and a movie at this location.

Ray Gee

Good theatres. Nothing more like IMAX or UAVX. Outdated into hat respect. But parking is great. Free for the first two hours.

Kevin D

The theatre itself isn't so bad, it's more so the environment you have to walk through to get into it. It feels like bizarro world walking through nice-downtown Vancouver into this area. Avoid the McDonald's downstairs.

Russell

If you're looking for artsy, non mainstream flicks this is the best theater in town. If you're looking for the latest blockbuster it probably won't be here yet

Patricia Moreno

I like this theatre because it's usually pretty quiet here. The arcade is decent.

Bran-tastic

I think this theatre is pretty good. It has a good selection of new movies and I find it less busy than Scotiabank theatre. You can also park in the parkade for free if you're visiting the theatre, just keep your movie passes as proof.

Wendy Hunter

Great seats in the theatre. Good selection of food.

Harran Shi

Love this place! Cineplex at Metropolis is chaos compared to the calm, quiet, clean and simple Cineplex Odeon International Village. I love the carpeted hallway outside of the auditoriums. The whole place was quiet and there were very, very little people. They hung pictures of the old classic movies in the halls like an art gallery. Came here once and never want to go back to Metrotown for movies again.

Gèé Hernandez

the cashier wont let me use scene card for multiple payments. is it on the rules or shes just damn lazy.

Nigel Kellett

Typical movie house. Big theatres and lots of different shows (10 theatres). Pricey refreshments

MorningStar Kematch

It shows newer films, just not the newest. It is small and tends not to be too busy. Clean, quiet, expensive movie food(when is it not). If you go late at night, the food court isn't open.

Deeksha Singh

Cheap tickets but you'll have to scramble to find a good seat.

Shane Standing

I like to classic cinema they run here. Comfortable and affordable

blake webber

Certain seats are getting old and busted but this particular theater has the old school movie theatre feel to it. So it's always a nice visit. And they play different movies usually then the mainstream theatres.

Nathalie F.R.

Biggest plus: cOzY; demerit: the mall can feel sketchy (esp. The public washrooms)

Kurian OS

It has many screens and in a good location.. although this place is not clean always

Johnny Onenote

So there I was having a good day until I came to this movie theater. I've had a few unpleasant encounters with the gestapo (I mean staff) in this theater before. It wasn't a case of me doing something bad. It was a case of discrimination. If they think they can treat me like trash just because I'm an immigrant they better think again. It's clear that they've had their eyes on me for some time. I don't think that they keep a picture of me in their files (or do they?), but they sure do remember me and talk about me (something I found out about during my questioning today). No, I wasn't going to show them my ticket because I wanted a scene to develop. Unfortunately, it didn't go that far because someone higher up quickly appeared (a woman in pants and a shirt). Too bad. I just had to walk out of there this time. Perhaps next time I'll be more successful. They better watch out.

Try escalator wild

Cineplex Odeon Village has a great location because of the dining options that there are nearby. Inside the mall there are also quite a few places to shop and buy food, which is nice to have while waiting to watch a film. I've been many times and it was never crowded which resulted in a good viewing experience. It's important to know that this theater never plays the latest releases, so it's good if you missed the latest one and need some catching up to do!

Vahid Vaezian

U have to get there early because tickets don't have seat number! The popcorn and the like were way too overpriced.

Andy Kidd

I love how they screen older films on the big screen.

Marco Fratarcangeli

Really like the fact that there is the food court a floor below where I can grab food before a movie. Also love the more varied selection of independent films that are less often find at other Cineplex theatres in town.

maqai

Went here to see the new Conjuring movie (it was lame ????). Seats were subpar and the escalator on the way up was more scary than the movie. One false move and you’re falling 80 feet to your death. Bathrooms were clean, however the signs need to be clearer…

Maret Christiansen

Simply because I love seeing films. And during VIFF, I meet interesting people in the line-up.

Derek Turkington

Amazing seats and love the staff. I always have a great experience here.

S R

Great venue, reclining seats, and over 100+ drinks!! Even had Coke Zero Cherry!! Mind blown!!

Adam Koebel

Without this theatre we’d never get to see the weird stuff. It’s up there with Cinematheque or the Rio. Old faithful.

Robby Hlady

It's a cheap theatre, not sure comfy seats, but good if you don't want to pay a ton for a movie.

Grant Coleman

Best theatre in Vancouver by far!

Po Lo

This has become my least favorite movie theater. Even if you have a ticket you can't enter the theater area until the movie starts. This means that you have to wait outside. And the staff are very suspicious. Staff came up to me and asked to see my ticket even though I was already sitting and waiting for the movie. Good thing I had my ticket then. Before that I had to learn the hard way to be careful at this place. I was followed, ridiculed and told to leave once just because I couldn't find my ticket, and I was already in the theater area. So the money that I paid was wasted and I didn't get to see the movie. After the way I was mistreated I now try to avoid going to this theater. This place actually has a fine selection of movies but if you go there have your ticket ready at all times and don't come early because they won't let you in until just before the movie starts.

elbrock

Great food and quiet ambiance in the food court

Ross Judge

Kind of a White Elephant place for many of the retail shops here, but the movie theater is a quality place, and 2 hours FREE PARKING underground- I have parked 3 hours free with no problem. The stores that are still open there are unique, but be careful if you wonder outside, as it's close to the rough part of the city.

David Black

This has been my favorite cinema in Vancouver, until it was taken over by Cineplex. Cineplex immediately started using it, in part, as a move over cinema and not booking the blockbuster movies in until several weeks after the Scotiabank Cinema bookings. Too bad. The Scotiabank Cinema is not as pleasant a place to go to the movies. It's cold and impersonal. Further, when Cineplex began rolling out their UltraAVX, they did not include the International Village. I'm sure they will likely say there were structural issues that prevented it, however there is no real reason that they couldnt have equipped at least one auditorium. Very disappointing.

Richard Wong

Free parking in the underground parking lot for 2 hours. In a mall with the refreshments on one level with a few lineups usually. Standard Cinplex combos for movie goers. Seats are tilt back ones for those who like then.

Nasrin Moradinik

Cineplex cinemas are all good and the halls' space for each theater is ideal

Darkes Dunsmuir

Been here for Cineplex movies and for hosted events. Love that they let organizations rent out theatres for awesome things like Kabuki. Treats and popcorn are expensive, like all Cineplex locations, but they always put on a pretty good show. Clean, good service, good selection.

Sean Thomson

I I have been coming since it was Toon Town. Back then the place was deserted, it's a lot busier now. The place is dated, small seats, small screans. But it is still a great place to go and watch a movie.

Pierre Charlebois

I give this theatre 5 stars for its free parking for 2 hours downtown. And right by a SkyTrain. So easy to meet friends for a flick.

Alick Lee (Alpha)

Cineplex owned and operated . this theatre was one of the last great local competitor until they got brought into the cineplex fold. Thought it maintains its classic Tinseltown architecture it's all cineplex now. Staff and friendly and movie selection is better then the first run theaters, if your looking to watch something different or multicultural this place has some selection

Dale Umali

Jennifer was working the ticket booth on March 23rd at 9pm. I was going to watch a movie with a friend of mine so looking forward to a nice evening. Upon paying for my movie I wanted to scan my Scene card on my phone as I don’t carry the physical card with me (Who Does?), her scanner wouldn’t scan it and tried multiple times. She started to get irritated and said I wouldn’t be able to get my points. She didn’t provide me with a solution and I was a little confused as movies are not cheap. So after fiddling around a bit I asked if there was another way to redeem my points. She was snarky in saying I should call customer service to hopefully be able to correct it. She had no intention of providing me with a solution. Upon going into the theatre I got popcorn and asked the agent to try scanning my card again and it worked no problem. I laughed to myself and my friend. My real feedback here is yes I understand technology fails us sometimes. I manage retail store myself and understand that. Jennifer just needs an attitude adjustment and maybe should know that her attitude rubs off on the people she serves. If you don’t like what you do, then please don’t take it out on the people that are trying to enjoy themselves. We had a great time and the movie was great. The theatre is a bit rundown along with the mall. That’s the least of my worries, you have more control over the people you hire and how they treat the clients that pay and decide on whether or not they return. I hope Jennifer reads this.

Gerry Laycock

Nice theatre complex. Very friendly staff. Easy access from Stadium/Chinatown SkyTrain.

Craig Carey

I love the selection of films they show here and I like the modern drink dispensers and the variety of drinks you can get. I don’t love this mall, but apart from that it’s a good spot. You can use the Cineplex vouchers available in Costco here that are great value.

Sohail Sadaqat

Its good place inside a small mall area but mall is closes early so if you go to watch movie at night you wont find much open

Caitlin Erickson

Good theatre but enjoyed it more before they switched companies and it was cheaper.

Stephanie Porter

Free 2 hour parking, the nicest staff, always clean, exceptional and speedy service, made me feel safe and welcomed. Thanks to the team there! The VAFF screening was extraordinary. A great place to host a private screening.

U A

Yes it's a movie theatre in the downtown area but movie experience is sub par according to today's standards. Which is fine but then general admission should not be $13.25, it should be half of this.

Thomas Roberto

Theatre seats need an upgrade.located at nice and convenient place.

Alexandra Anderson

Awesome movie theatre. Never too busy and always had interesting films playing as well as box office hits.

Rico Cruz

Parking is free if you watch a movie, that is always a positive. The theater was nice and clean. I watched Storks with my nephew so there were plenty of kids, but that wasn't much of an issue. The popcorn was good, but they do charge for the butter. The prices are cheap (in comparison to San Diego) and it was not hard to get a ticket. My main issue is the mall it is located in. I hate heights and it is on the third floor. The elevator is slow and old, giving the feeling that it could give at any moment. The escalators and stairs are also steep. Although maybe I should just get over my fear of heights.

Asif Asad Jan

Lovely and lovely place. Went there at the event of VIFF. Many screens for variety of movies to watch.

Althea Gray

I've been going to this Theater for years. I must have seen a movie in every one of the theaters 10 times over. However there is only One Womens Washroom in the entire location. One Washroom that has 6 (including a Disabled) stalls. And woe is you if you get caught in a line up OUTSIDE the door. Maybe a Reno and/or 2 more Female Washrooms added, will make a major difference to the experience.

Bev S

There are a lot of theatres in one place so you get a wide choice of movies. They show good movies and the seats are very comfortable. You can get 2 hours free parking as well. It is close to the sky train and within walking distance from the Stadium China Town station.

Ynod NO

Place is clean, I find the seats are tight. No issue with car parking, as they have plenty in the mall parking. Just don't park outside coz its not a very safe place especially at night.

Phillip Joseph

I like cineplex oden ive been going there since it was called tinseltown. The food there is pretty decent for the doller it costs

Andrew Watt

Food selection is a bit weak

Joh REN

If you want to watch a movie and not being pressure by a big crowd, this is the place you want to go.

Lorri Prime

Hardly anyone in the audience, just me and another person, but a nice movie (documentary about Julia Child.

Nika

The staff were super nice!!

Samee Ali

Big screens and comfortable seating. A good place to watch your favourite movie.

Terry Burbridge

The mall that this cinema is in was near empty when we went on a Sunday early afternoon. The cinema itself was pretty decent. I liked that the seats were leatherette and not cloth like some of the older theatres out there.

Rudolf Penner

Dull theater. Turns on bright lights during credits to rush you out, even tho you paid $15. No dimmers allowed. Sound: good. Staff: stay away from them. Buy tickets at the automatic dispensers on 2nd floor in Food Court. Not many machines left as they keep breaking down and are not replaced.

Matthew Li

Had a great selection of movies and comfortable cinema, would recommend!

Toren Atkinson

Great selection of films and food from all corners of the world on the second floor

Marilou Tolentino

This was just my second time to see a movie in this cinema. My friends and I saw Unexpectedly Yours :-) The cinema (theater 5) is clean and the thermostat is set just right. TIP when you're watching a Filipino film (or the more popular titles for that matter), buy your ticket online because it can get pretty crazy on the counter, especially on a Tuesday. Glad we did so we just went straight to the ticket check, skipping the box office.

Brendon Wong

Quiet theater that serves up some of the more artsy, non-serious movies. Interior needs to be spruced up a bit

Graham Bingham

A little long in the tooth, but still a comfortable theatre with modern stadium seating. This is a great place to see lesser known movies.

David Harker

Lots of independent and foreign films. Never very busy.

LargeMuffin94

There was a small mix up on the website I clicked for this location but it sent me to park and tilfords location instead talked the the manager Erwin and he let us watch the movie here great service and super kind and understanding

Steven Kavanagh

My favourite Cineplex theatre. They continue to screen limited run and foreign films that are hard to find elsewhere. When Cineplex took over this theatre from Cinemark I was worried it would lose its vibe but thankfully they mostly stuck to what made that theatre unique for many years.

Evan Friesen

Good selection of films, pretty good theatres. Screens aren't the biggest and some chairs are worn out but overall enjoyable. Usually one of the only Cineplex cinemas in Vancouver that shows indie movies with a long run which is great. Great location also.

Drew Mcpherson

It was not nearly as complicated to get in as we thought it might be. The staff was very helpful in validating the vaccine passport and ID with minimal confusion or difficulties.

Megan Le

Don't go here often but I know it has older movies and more international movies.

Adam Schellenberg

The theatre itself is ok, but I hate the building it resides in. Has a bit of a faux old world cinema feel to it, which I appreciate.

Victor Alleva Beleti

Very charming cinema. They have a practical way to print the ticket bought online.

Ryan Sixxo

This place is huge. great theatre and the place was not to slow even though it was packed

Richard Gee

Dec 18.. COVID protocols & potential lockdown has left the theatre sparsely attended; existing staff are doing their best to keep place clean & tidy. Well done

Siddhant Saigal

It's wonderful. The theaters are huge The mall itself seems old but the theater is amazing. It's way way better than I anticipated Do watch a movie here

J Lo

Food is as good as other Cineplex theatres. The seats are very comfortable .

Mr Ait

Amazing cinema well equipped and kept many theaters and good drinks &snacks are also available

Movie theater we were in started to leak copious amounts of water on to the seats in front of us for about half an hour. Upon alerting the theatre staff, they walked in and did nothing nor did they offer us complementary tickets.

Brent Seungwook Kim

Good place to see movie. Parking is free.

Kirk Chantraine

Pretty good theater for a chain. They still host many indie movies and support things like film fest and other community events. Always have pleasant experience with staff there.

Pam Withers

The show was listed as a 4:20 pm show. The feature did not start until 5 pm. Forty minutes of ads is totally unreasonable. Avoid this cinema and start a complaint campaign, please.

Akashdeep Saini

The screen was small and sound was lackluster. I guess I'm just used to the nicer Cineplex theatres.

Radhika Verma

Watched black widow, nice experience, everything is nice. The ticket window is however closed may be due to covid however staff assistance/help is available if someone needs help in booking through the internet .

Andrew Rogers-Tillstone

I found nothing wrong with this movie theatre. Thought it was going to be a dodgy one at first, but it wasn't. I enjoyed it

Devlin Fenton

"it's not the Ritz" but it's a cinema. Kinda old and worn out, and the rest of the mall is average at best, it meets the obligations of a big screen experience.

Rohan Parikh

Good selection of less popular and foreign movies. Not usually too busy and theatres are well maintained. Ticket sales and concession are almost guaranteed to have no line, and service is as expected. Only time it ever gets busy is during VIFF or other special event.

Nazanin Behzadi

The theatre itself is fine but the area is not a favorable part of town.

P O

Older but spacious theatre. Decent food. Drink dispensers have countless options!

Lyn Blanchard

Always a great selection of movies and times. Good seating too!

Erick Cardenas

Multi-Cinema is great, parking is free, and usually has many family oriented movies in addition to the new releases. The international Village is located in downtown Vancouver is a not-so-fancy neighborhood.

Paolo Cuéllar

Always a great experience.

Marcus Wang

Selection is very small for the foods the good thing is the nachos are delicious and the other food is just okay. The theatre room for movies the room a bit too small. The staffs are very friendly and nice too.

William McElroy

The Cineplex Odeon is located in a mall called tinseltown right next door to the entrance to Chinatown it's also a ten minute walk to the science center and gastown

Saeed Hessami

Very convenient theater, good free underground parking and easy to get to.

Kev Stessens

Nice cinema, chairs are comfortable enough and plenty of different auditoriums

Anneke Smith

The New Year's Eve André Rieu 70th Birthday Concert...2 and a half hours of Bliss!! Great seats, Great sound.

Latif Ullah (Labcatz)

One of My favorite cinemas in Vancouver. It's not too big, but not too small, usually lots of seating. They play big films but a lot if indies as well. There's a foodcourt on the 2nd floor too if you want a quick bite.

Zhenia Poet

The movie theatres are fine but nothing special. Keep in mind that you get free parking for the first three hours, which is great.

Jordan Price

My friend and I like the artsier movies, and they all get shown here! The mall it's within is so quirky and fun, too. It's a great time.

Wilo Toro

First time in this cinemas and I love it! They're criminally underrated.

Gloria Robertson

Super friendly, brought my 3 year old and they were super understanding

Yiqun Chen

Not always current box office movies, but if you don't mind wait for a few weeks and free parking, then pick this one

Laura St Amour

Theatre is great, but not the best area of town.

Barra Wayne

I lovey it here...out of the way....off the beaten track...relaxed...cool vibe...great staff...swell little théâtres...great best kept secret...

Lauren Jay

Went to see a showing of A Star is Born. There was an altercation with an intoxicated patron and the movie had to be stopped. Props to the management, staff, and security who handled everything so professionally and de escalated the situation.

Andrew Neary

This mall is like walking through the remnants of a boom town when their mine got shut down. Dimly lit, functional but without amenities, escalator stairs, it is a place in despair. Went to see Coco on my second last night in Vancouver and while the movie experience wasn't ruined by the theatre, it is definitely in my bottom five Cineplex theatres in Canada.

E. Brian Johnson

The theatre I watched Mr Holmes in last week was so freezing cold that I had to actually leave the movie before it finished. And they didn't refund my money either.

Joseph Goldes

This cinema shows the big name movies but also gets independents and Mandarin language films. It is what you would expect from a big box theatre, but the advantage is that they are in gas town and have free parking.

Erika G

Theatre was a typical movie experience, however this building always has this really gritty dirty east side feeling. Would recommend socitabank or even fifth ave cinemas instead.

Anj Robinson

Customer service seemed she lacked kindness, at least smile a bit, I clearly asked for a large drink with my order, she didn't hear that, so had to reuse card payment, asked for butter 1/2 way through bag popcorn and on top as well...my popcorn seemed quite dry with no butter. Asked for a bit butter in a cup...she tried recharging me for it, told her I requested extra in my popcorn, but was so dry!! Other than that, nice quiet theatre.

Grant Wall

Some of the most comfortable seats in a theatre. Often empty during late night shows.

Impro Vancouver

Preferred over Metrotown and Scotiabank locations. This theatre is honestly great and generally quiet.

Relaxnsip

Great place to catch an evening flick. Parking is free for movie goers.

MPH Mobile Detailing MPH

Good theater! Just should have free refills on popcorn & pop. Only fair!

HS Madan

This theatre needs to be updated!

Nitish Goel

Don't watch a movie in auditorium 2. Really uncomfortable seats and ultra small screen.

blue endo

good seats, never packed, if you want to see a superhero movie in full costume they will let you, selection is a bit limited

Queenzy Joi Teneza

It's ok. I just didn't like the fact that they can only scan one scene card when other movie theaters can scan unlimited scene card. I was really upset since there were 4 of us but my friend who paid for the movie was the only one who get to scan his card. And they don't have kiosk which sucked for a bit. Anyway I enjoyed the movie.

Josh Evans

It is the spitting image of every other big movie theatre on the planet. Nothing amazing, nothing terrible.

Ian Macdonald

It's a movie theatre, seats are good. Don't forget to go on Tuesdays for the cheaper tickets.

Charles Perrot-Minot

Decent movie theater, but doesn't offer a large selection of movies.

Minal C.

I don't like the vibe of this whole building, too much things everywhere, cinema doesn't feel like one, avoid going here if you can and go to scotiabank theater which is not far along

amyzior

Awesome cinema, so happy they are open again :)

L B

At the top of the funkiest mall Vancouver has to offer is the city’s tiniest mega theatre. The kids working here are showing the world they have what it takes to work and do a good job; it shows because the place is clean, well run and they’re helpful and polite. The best thing about this theatre are the black and white pictures along its hallways that harken back to the golden age of film. These framed pictures show a personal touch that management or the owner has lent that brings out something not found in Cineplex theatres. What I’d like to see is one of their dozen theatres permanently dedicated to showing retro movies. We have a century of film behind us; put some of it ahead of us to remember what cinema once was. Overall, a unique place hidden on the 3rd storey of a strangely designed building between Crosstown, Chinatown & Gastown.

Jordan Ho

I like this movie theatre specifically for more indie movies or movies that aren't shown at some of the larger, more popular Cineplex theatres. Watched weathering with you and Jojo rabbit in the past, and I likely will be back in the future when more interesting movies come out. I'm glad to have this Cineplex option for these lesser known/limited release movies.

PM

what's with all the lame stupid reviews? worst area in North America? jeez ! stay home and watch your big screen TV if you are afraid to venture out into the big bad dangerous world where you might see an unwashed panhandler ! this theatre is fine! staff is courteous! what's not to like?

Heather Szilagyi

I had the most amazing thing happen last night. I had a coupon for a free movie on a box of cereal. I had a very rough month, and needed to treat myself to a movie to get away. I punched in the code for the coupon on my computer at home, and it told me the ticket was successfully purchased, and I was being sent a confirmation email to my hotmail account. I went for a long, rainy walk, from East Vancouver, to the theatre. Arrived soaking wet, tired, and ready for my movie. I went to grab my email confirmation form my phone, and there was no email. I was so crushed. Looked through all my folders, also my gmail account, just in case I read it wrong...nothing. I lined up anyway, told the boy at the desk my situation, and asked if I could find the ticket from my Scene number. He sadly replied "no, I'm so sorry". But he called his manager right away. The manager heard my story, asked to come back 15 minutes before the movie to see if anything had shown up by then. I went to grab a snack, then went back at the time he suggested. Sadly, still no email. Figured I'd talk to them again anyway. The boy at the desk instantly remembered me, and guided me to the employee who checks the tickets. They both knew exactly what was going on, and without any hesitation, told me to go on in. No charge. I was stunned. I had no proof of the coupon for them, and somehow I ended up being treated like a celebrity. I asked for the manager's name, but the ticket boy didn't know which manager it was. I'm sure he would remember though. Thank you, so much. You truly made my day. (It was the 7:15pm viewing of Safe Haven, Wednesday February 27th.)

Tim CM

Quite dated & small compared to the other cinemas in the Vancouver area, but also often quiet compared to others. Movie selection is decent most of the time

Jennifer Perrin

Free parking, where can you get that in Vancouver?? Seats are comfortable. Screens and sound are good Lineups are never bad. Concession stand, like all other movie theatres, is crazy expensive. Nice staff

arya 2288

Screen quality and latency is terrible. In addition the sound lack any of the new Atmos features. Such a shame for a movie theatre in such an amazing location.

Nina Kramer

Most unorganized theatre. No staff to control or form lines. Customers form lines at escalator landing so no place to get off escalator safely! Not one set of stantion or ropes to help customers know where to wait. Movie started 20 minutes later then scheduled. Lousy concessions. Will NEVER go to this theatre again. Ridiculously poor management.

Firecatcher3000

Great selection of movies, different than the Scotiabank theatre lineup

Sing Kit Kwong

This would be a good place to watch movie if after a Chinatown dinner, you would not like to drive too far or in walking distance. The location and parking is easy, it just that the movie collection is not the biggest film, sometime you can even find some nice 2nd tiler movies that are not shown in bigger cinema. Some may refer the Chinatown area too close to the beggers and drug dealing on hasting, isn't that similar to what it was like in downtown Vancouver in the 90's, looks how they changed downtown now with creative commercial initiatives, new apartments and jobs opportunities

Steve Quinn

A little worn from years of showing movies, but still a great place to catch a movie + free parking...so there's that!

Lissette Lemus

Just the staff seems unhappy and thus they treat you like stock instead feeling you welcome. Love the alternative films they have, nice variety.

Louis Cyphre

good theatres, safe.

Brent Winterton

First time attending a movie theatre in a mall. Reminds me of the theatrea you'd go to as a class in gradeschool. Quaint and gets the job done. Questionable part of town after dark but thats hardly their fault.

Timtwoface (Timtwoface)

Great location and a greater variety of movies play here...and parking for moviegoers is 100% free!

Paulino Aranguren

Is not the best in town is not the worst just an other cinema, the zone do not help at all but the service is as usual, good.

YAN YAN TSO

(5⭐️) Amazing location. Not a popcorn out of place. Place is immaculate. Not one popcorn on their floors. It was 1.5 hrs after they opened (5⭐️) The bathroom is spotless. Doesn’t smell. (5⭐️) The chairs are nice, in good working order. (3⭐️) time play major fail (it malfunctioned during my second movie and everyone who was tuned in to time play got booted off the wifi right after session started ) (5⭐️) Air conditioning is perfect not cold but not too low either. They aced it 5⭐️ (5⭐️) both escalators working. (4⭐️) sadly no assigned seating option at ticket booth, also. The booth made it hard to hear them when they were reading off the booklet for show times. And. The boy I had didn’t seem to want to check for me before I ordered. I was trying to make sure my two movies would meet up and I’d be able to get out of show #1 in time to get into show #2 before it started (time play) Overall. I still give them 5/5⭐️ for this location.

Andy Liu

Fire alarm came on at the final two minutes of my movie, received two free admissions because of that, wish it happened more!

Jamie Shaw

We've come here often and loved it, but last night the parking sucked. The Canucks were playing so the underground parkade was a nightmare. Couldn't find parking so left. I wish they had pay parking like years ago. What a waste of time

Catherine Rogers

When you hike through the mall to get here the theatre is good. Nice to have a quiet spot and no lineups during mid week too.

Lauren

Great theatre. Usually not too busy .

Lori Pederson

International Village is not a new building. But it is extremely clean, despite the dilapidated neighbourhood. Great films. Good parking, but I always take transit, which is less than 2 blocks away at Stadium station. Grab a hotdog at …

Keith Shikatani

Love this theatre! The most comfortable seating in Vancouver, free parking and because it's not a first run theatre, the crowds are light.

Michael Greenwell

Sometimes they play great movies, but the theatre itself is a bit underwhelming, it has solid chairs, but really hasn't had too much attention since it was purchased by Famous Players, and the mall itself isn't very nice, it has interesting shops from time to time but can't seem to keep any tenants.

David Warwick

Great during the pandemic, whole theater to ourselves

Sylverlynx 666

Great seats, great prices, great movies. Could use better foot rests but overall awesome experience.

Rainbow Donut

I like the movies because they play tons of new releases and they sell nice snacks that are fit for a movie

K.J Stevens

Classic "old schooly" Cineplex..Mind all the panehandlers and drug addicts out front of this mall..Rough part of VanCity to be sure!..Lots of art films sprinkled in with top Hollyweird draws shown here...Decent!

Wajahat Mahmood

Theatre experience is great. But would not recommend late night movies due to location.

Zaya Layta

I love this place i livr right bye it so i cpuld see the movies and eat Mcdonalds anytime o want lol but yeah .

Dennis Wong

Fire alarm went off in the theatre. There was no evacuation plan in place. Lights stayed off and no one came to help us evacuate. It was dangerous exiting the theatre in the dark. We reach the lobby, no direction from the staff. After a few minutes in the lobby, the alarm goes off and they send us back into the theatre. The movie never stopped while we were out so we missed part of the movie. They came in after a few minutes and tell us they're rewinding the movie by 5 minutes. We still missed a couple of minutes. They are lucky it wasn't anything serious because they had no evacuation plan in place in case of an emergency.

javid art

The quality of the projection and screen was so poor. We watched WEST SIDE STORY and the real brightness, resolution and highlights of the movie were significantly decreased on the screen. It was even hard to see colors for such colorful dance scenes! Great cinematography got spoiled there! They really need to upgrade their projection system.

Steve McEneany

Lots of movie choices. Nice reclining seats. Good quality complex. Free parking if going to cinema.

Frank Kaminsky (Frank K)

Theater is a bit dated and old and the seats are a bit worn out. On the plus side, the theater usually isn't very busy so it is quieter. Theater has a good selection of movies. Location is conveniently by the skytrain station.

Sukhwinder

Free parking and easily accessible. Though the theatres are fairly small this is still a nice location.

Natalie Doan

Went to the BTS Love Yourself in Seoul showing at 4:30 pm today. Absolutely horrific. People were screaming and lighting up their lightsticks, and talking non-stop throughout the movie. There wasn't a single employee around to re-enforce rules, so I ended up telling people myself to respect other movie-goers by turning off their lightsticks and keeping their chanting and screaming to a minimum. Of course, because I wasn't an employee, they responded by cussing me out before screaming and screeching even more. Completely ruined the experience for me.

Chris Cudahy

Reasonable facilities, but had to sit through 30 minutes of ads, plus previews before the movie started - 40 minutes after the published start time.

Al Ebr

Seats are mostly damaged in Aud 09 Quality of popcorn is not the same as other Cineplex Sound system was horrible at Aud 09 No sign or direction on the main floor where the theatre is located

jude D.

Free parking, movie food and etc. this place has all the usually movie theaters amenities but is clean and quiet

Robert Yuen

They show more obscure movies that aren't shown at the other theatres. They have Timeplay which would be a redeeming feature had they had not reduced the prize value tremendously. There's a small arcade of games from decades past. They have a coke free-style machine. There are stairs, escalators and elevators to get to the theatre. The chairs are fine and there are cup holders on the arm rests.

Vincent Lee

Have not been here for five years. I forgot how clean it was. The seats recline and the snacks affordable.. saw John Wick and it was awesome. Thanks we'll be back for discount Tuesday on a rainy night.

Conrad Delaney

The theater #5 had no "soundproofing" sound from next theater movie playing was a full action film. Also I was disappointed with the lack of choices at the concession. Having to grab Hotdogs + Pop only. And the positive was the Movie price..With many different genres. C.D.

Dominic Walsh

Such chaotic crowd control that we nearly missed our movie, in spite of pre bought tics. Complained on website, one brief response 2 weeks later, then nothing

Decent movie theatre. It would be nice if they did some renovations.

Blue Scribe

A place to see movies. Great times always had. Clean theatres and amenities

Mark Falkenberg

Nice theater. Good seating. Good place to see international movies!

Gordon Collier

The seating is nice but they are narrow. They do not recline and they are a little worn. The concessions are very good and the drinks are self serve so that is nice.

While rather small, this is still a multiplex, with 12 theatres inside. 8 and 9 are the biggest, but I can usually find a decent seat in any theatre. The seats are not that comfortable, but this place does show a lot of indie flicks not …

Ali Radji

Easy parking, always free parking available unlike most other movie theatre’s in Vancouver

Fateh-Karan Chohan

small, doesn’t have D-box I believe, and you can sometimes hear the movie that’s playing in the theatre next you (mostly explosions or intense music usually only action movies). The pro about this theatre is that it lines are short and very quick. Good theatre if you just want to watch a regular movie and don’t need any of the extra stuff (D-box, Ultra AVX ect...).

I visited on a Thursday night. The lineups were minimal, and the concession workers were pretty efficient. However, my experience was dampened by how many things were out of order! In one washroom, three of the four sinks were out of order and 2 of the 5 toilets were out of order. One of the three drink machines was also out of order. I find it concerning when a business chooses not to repair such basic amenities.

K'shin Gendron

Free parking, comfy seating, big list of children's movies, and air hockey for after the movie. All good.

B L

Nice place, deeply sloped so you don't have to worry who's going to be blocking your view. Ppl still have to be told to shut up during movie (mid. âge, should know better)

Indigo Sun Girl

Amazing film and experience and environment with classic film boards on the walls.

Asiyeh Safarpour

A Greate place in china town can have fun and buy your needs.

Fek Yoo

I am writing to thank the staff for their cool, calm, and collected way they dealt with the crazy lady that was yelling at the poor front door man asking why she needed to provide a vaccination card and ID. Angel, good work buddy. I would have lost my cool long before you.

Rob

This is an okay movie Theatre. It is a little older and the mall it is part of is really run down.

Barbara Hansen

The theatre was fine, just not in a salubrious part of town.

Steve Cornale

Average theatre experience with older seats. If you need/want reclining seats not a theatre for you. Liked it better when it was a Landmark cinema before the current Odeon operators, at least with Landmark they had better matinee pricing as well as selection of movies, made the basic seats tolerable.

J LeFev

First class Theatre excellent comfortable seats and executive washrooms

Kelly Erickson

One of the nicer theaters.. the escalator up to the theater is a little scary if you have problems with heights.

thunderverna

I've been coming here since they opened! Staff over the years have been consistently friendly and welcoming. When you ask for extra butter, you GET extra butter (paid). They host many film festival events, and also tend to have the more interesting, smaller releases.There are 12 cinemas, with 9 and 10 being the two largest. I find people sometimes get disoriented in here... just remember, when you head in from the lobby, turn LEFT for cinemas 1-4, straight ahead for 5, turn right for the rest. 12 is at the very end. Bathrooms are right near cinema1, and also next to cinema 11. This is a lovely place to see a film!!

Chris

Always a favourite for the family

Michael W

Good for independent and international films. Gets the blockbusters during "second run". Earn Scene points when you see a movie and make food and drink purchases.

Monica Dare

great seats but all the food popcorn at cetera is a very expensive

Marlene Philip

So easy to get to. I saw the movie Judy, I thought it was s great one.What a horrible life she had from a very young age..

Zealah Rhodes Green

Good theatre, quiet. Bad quality popcorn, stale candy, and hardly any drink options compared to other locations. Had a good time though:)

Michael Greenberg

Good theatre and free soft drinks. The popcorn was expensive though with a large costing $10.50.

Julie Hwang

Nice seats nice air nice screen no people were rude watching nice sounds

Johnny Seng

No one cleaned the theatre before the movie started last night

Michael Kehl

This place does feel a bit like it's waiting to die. That said, it has free parking and does occasionally screen movies outside of the typical hollywood blockbusters, which is nice.

Ahmed Arabi

Place is kind of old and in need up upgrades. Eerie feeling in there sometimes with staff not talking and just watching. Mini Arcade that sometimes works.

Dominic Rechner

Great movie theatre likely the only one in Vancouver proper to have free parking.

Donna Lynn

The cinema itself was ok. It could have used a clean from the last movie. For the price I would expect a little better.

Chona Florano

Love coming to this place for the English subtitled movies. Older cinema but clean. Fast, efficient, friendly counter service. Gave it the 5 Stars for having free parking for movie goers. ????

brendon Pizzati

On Sundays this Cineplex is home to my Coast Church, where Jesus is gentley preached unto Salvation and the love of God is shared! Come check it out this Christmas Season! All are welcome!

Simon Bergink

many saints of Newark: 1 star

Cora Bell

Nice theatre, but kind of awkward to leave for late night showings because most of the doors out of the building are locked

Chris Lakusiak

Was initially served popcorn that definitely was not fresh and did not taste like it had the requested additional butter applied. Sophia was quick and happy to remedy this for me. Thank you for maintaining the integrity and level of service I’ve come to expect from Cineplex International Village.

M Ghabel

I love the free parking. There is a great selection of films shown here and the staff and management has kept the place clean overall.

Ronald Williams

Frozen 2 an true masterpiece of family movie. Great theme and character development as well as amazing customer service.

David Eaton

Very comfortable. Only one person selling tickets with a large line.....otherwise fine

Kyle Kung

The cinema is kind of old, but is fairly empty

Trish Cauchon

Seats r comfy but not very wide.they lean back nicelt though without bothering the people behind u

Uzeyir Salmanov

Movie experience is very good, but location in an older mall is not.

Ailish Evans

I know that they have to play some commercials, but this is insane. We're 20 mins after the play time for an hour and a half long movie with no end in sight. How are they still going?!?!

Ann

Worst service! Staff was very rude, she slammed the cup in front of me and my friend. Washroom was super dirty ( toilet paper was everywhere near the sink?!) Will never watch movie at this location ever again!

Luca Martino

Beautiful cinema. Usually I don't go often to see movie but I funded this cinema very clean and organized for the seats choose and everything. I really recommend this place for family and teenagers . And good vision

Marlene Jack

enjoyed the movie .. seats recline so was more comfortable to sit .. and staff was quick with service and polite . enjoyed the movie

james burton

Love this place - I like the architecture - clean and decent

John Morris

Great spot to watch movies. Seats are a bit tighter but they are comfortable. Prices are a bit cheaper too. Good location.

Trina Medeiros

Very friendly staff. Disability seating is not within touching distance of the screen (thankfully).

Amanda Norville

It was an ok experience. Half the concession registers were closed which made for really long lines on a Friday night. But I'm happy they have free parking !

as ad

AWFUL I WANT A REFUND PLUS MORE I SAW 2 MOVIES HERE YESTERDAY, LIGHTHOUSE IN NO 6, AND MOTHERLESS BROOKLYN IN NO 12. THE MOVIES WERE EAR PIERCINGLY LOUD. I MEAN PEOPLE JUST TALKING ON THE SCREEN WILL HURT YOUR EARS. ON TOP OF THAT, LIGHTHOUSE SOUND WAS OFF CENTRE, PULLED TO THE RIGHT.

Wan Ming Wong

Centrally located in international village... Nice architectural building. Friendly theater staff Shops Food court T & T supermarket Many hi rise around it..8-10 A good tourist downtown spot. I am very impressed at the lively escalators going in multiple directions...a big good looking mall.

Derek Jay

free parking is always a plus, the air conditioning was not as cool as I'd like but overall I was very entertained. after the movie when I exited it was definitely way hotter outside.

Green Louis

Good place not many people this time

J N

Nicely laid out and in a convenient location. Seats aren’t the most comfortable but the auditorium has pretty decent sound and picture quality.

Anise A

Not my fave location cause heights,escalators earthquakes and nachos funk. Lots of movie selection though

Matthew Anderson

It isn't as busy as other locations but that's exactly how I like it. This theatre is older inside but still well maintained and doesn't affect the overall movie experience. It has a food court below it, offers free parking and once your movie is done, you can do some grocery shopping at T&T or Costco.

Amelia Victor

Was my first time going to see movie in this theater and I enjoyed it and the seats recline I love that ! Was able to sit back and relax while watching the movie :)

James Kang

Best theatre in downtown vancouver. Free Parking, great seats and great theatre.

Ladi Rags

Nice and cosy theatre..

Alex I

Decent theater, plays some movies that are on their way out of theaters. Not overcrowded

Gabi Braga

Big and comfortable theatre rooms, great sound and nice snacks.

Mehraneh Mehr

Nice Cinema but this is the second time that my car get broken in to down in the parking lot of the international village.

Jon L

A very good multiplex. One of two multiplexes in Downtown Vancouver. Has a small amount of games. Has a good selection of cinemas. The films shown are a mix of blockbusters, film fest material and arthouse. May lack most features from a Silver City but it still offers a lot.

박혜린

Even though not allowed other places food but good for enjoying movies. ;)

Anita wong

I go regularly, even alone some. Matinees, free parking. I recommend this place 100%.

PS

Customer service is good. Super clean. Wheelchair accessible. The only thing needs improvement is the food at the theatre's entrance and perhaps some careful training of those beautiful girls. We asked twice for no buttered pop corn but it seemed our request was not considered. The hot dogs were soggy and the salt level very high. I hope it was only a single isolated incident but I would like to report it in case improvements could be made. Kindly, a customer

Minh C

It's a great place to watch movies. And you can earn points with Scene to get free tickets or food.

Tom Rose

Though they may not have the largest screen they definitely have the most comfortable seating as they partial recline.

Daryle Kern

Without the theaters , this mall is doomed . Its full of junkies everywhere ., the foodcourt washroom is dirty and smelly. I only visit this place because of the cinemas

Trent Dykes

I been to this location a few times to watch movies. It has free under ground parking and easy to come and go to watch a film. Too bad more people aren't getting out and doing this great event.

Nicholas Secreto

Though this theatre is small they offer the most selection in the entire GVA, instead of taking up 5 theatres with one film every one of their screens plays a different film. This theatre offers the $7 flashback films with new selections every week. Their arcade is old and only runs on tokens but their updated drink machines offers dozens of drink flavors to choose from. Great place to grab a Vanilla Coke and watch an old movie on the cheap.

Aidan Averyl Bancroft

This theatre went ahead with a showing of Call Me By Your Name when the films score was not playing, at all, no music the entire movie. I’d estimate the theatre was 1/3 full. We were met by a supervisor who seemed inconvenienced and annoyed by our complaint and mere surprise that this (full price) viewing had even gone ahead as scheduled. I’ll also note that they were planning to go ahead with the next showing that day with no sound, and no notice to customers in advance. Gave it two stars because the chairs were comfy, and there is still free two hour parking. (**Update: in an attempt to be fair, I think I should add that we were given vouchers to come back and see the film again. Only after we asked for them)
