Capitol 6 is my preferred movie theatre in Victoria for a few reasons. The new renovations and especially the seats are fantastic. I like that they are adjustable two ways, for the back as well as the legs, as opposed to a single button operation that is less customizable. The rows are also spacious and prevent you from being uncomfortably close to anyone else watching the movie. They also seem to get some exclusive films which is nice if there is a specific one you are hoping to see. Overall quite a nice theatre.
We had an aweful time on my last night in Victoria trying to watch Tomb Raider... after waiting an hour it still wouldn't play and they sent us home with tickets refunded and a "small popcorn voucher" <-- thumbs down
Friendly staff, clean facilities and love the reclining seats
Have had tons of good movie nights, it's the theater that doesn't make you feel like they are pushing you through the front doors.
Comfortable and clean, truly the best theatre in Victoria. Always great shows to see and experience.
Comfiest seats at the same price as everywhere else and they do cheap Tuesday!
Great seats, amazing prices and a good selection of movies and times
Most amazing recliners in town. More plush and comfortable compared to Cineplex. Very unique architecture and interior design.
Small theatres with nice big reclining chairs. Makes for a cozy experience.
best seets I ever saw. Adjustable and support for the legs - Feels like a king.
Local movie theater with decent seats and prices.
Comfortable seats, good selection of movies
The chair can be adjusted and it is so comfortable.
Aww yiss... comfy reclining chairs.
I prefer the Landmark seats and cozy atmosphere.
Awesome seating but it needs a better arcade and entertainment games while you wait for your movie.
Comfortable seats, friendly atmosphere.
Great little theatre. Super comfy seats. One point off for the busted ticket system in the front. Get that fixed or revert back to your old system.
On Sundays 10am to 12:00 a Baptist church is held. This is such a great venue for the cgurch to meet at. Wheelchair accessability is there and seats are comfortable for everyone. I love attending here. Irs very welcoming.
My favorite theater in town. Most comfortable recliner seats in the city. Best fountain drink also. However, deducting one star cause it's obvious that the cleaning and sanitizing is very relaxed. Seats covered in popcorn on arrival. Dropped my phone under the seat and it was UNREAL the trash under there.
The staff are awesome as are the reclining seats! Clean and classy!
I did not understand the movie
The recliner chairs are great, and the buttons are in a better spot than Cineplex (I accidentally hit theirs with my leg during the movie). Free refill on drinks and popcorn too. They don't always have the best movie selection though. If they had more consistently good movies I would only be going here.
An old classic of Victoria. Recently upgraded some really big, comfortable seats, though not the biggest screens. Clean venue, courteous staff.
One of the best theatres in the city! Amazingly comfortable and spacious seats, quality sound and excellent screens. A preferred theater!
We saw 'Little Women'. The theater is very comfortable. The movie was very good as well.
Best seats in town. Screens on the small side. Concession needs work.
The seats are amazing. Please go here if you haven't gone yet, it's worth the venture to downtown. The seats are epic, wish they were heated lol. The popcorn was great, and with butter, I enjoyed that it wasn't sopping, but evenly covered. Looking forward to returning for more movies

The fully reclining seats make the films much more enjoyable.
Big comfy seats. Generally quieter compared to some of the other movie theatres in town.
The chairs are nice
I love to see a little indie theatre doing this well. A fantastic location, great staff, and I'd be lying if I said those chairs weren't nice.
New giant reeling seats! So comfortable. Now, if only they'd improve the food options a bit.
Reserved seats, with online order ticket kiosk. Best theatre ever.
Plus side: Reclining seats. Minus: washrooms are up 2 flights of stairs
Great seats great service
The staff is always friendly & helpful & I love the recliner chairs. Makes movie watching a lot more comfortable
Luxury Seats, good viewing experience. The screens and projectors are not IMAX or AVX level quality but the full recliner chairs and generous seating room provide a different level of luxury.
Comfy seats. Good sound sounds system.
Best theatre in town !!!!! They don't have all the silly extremely long boring advertising like other corporate theaters . The sound doesn't make your ears hurt . The chairs are the most comfortable ones I've ever tried . Prices are fair , staff is friendly . I will not go anywhere else to watch a movie even if it's free. These guys know how to keep customers happy . Thank you.
First time to a movie theater since 2007, so for me it was awesome, recliner chairs were amazingly
Really nice Cinema. Best in town. At least the chairs are awesome. They don't have IMAX, but the chairs compensate everything.
After seeing my last four movies in IMAX the screen was TINY lol. But the seats were comfy, I had plenty of leg room, and the sound was excellent. The employees were also fun and courteous.
The new theatre and seats are fantastic. Your ass has never known such comfort! This is now my go to theatre any chance I have. Food is expensive like any theatre
It preserves a piece of Victoria history while also improving it. Great new lazyboy chairs, decent variety at the concession, and the mix-your-own flavor pop machine is awesome, letting you make otherwise unattainable international flavours like peach coke. Online ticket purchase and the self-serve barcode scanner make entry quick and easy.
Absolutely amazing seats and tons of room (both in the seat and to the next row). Theatre is a little cold though, so bring a jacket. Popcorn is average, you also can't get just a glass of water. Sound is better than an average theatre, but not as good as Silver City IMAX.
If a movie came out, there is where i want to see it and the first place I check. Editing to add: the free pop refill is awesome! hope you keep that forever!
Was nice inside, very clean the chairs were nice with a super comfortable headrest, but I feel like they should recline more than they do. I'm 6'3 and my feet were touching the back of the chair in front of me. Otherwise it's awesome.
Really enjoy this theatre in it's most recent incarnation. Most comfortable I've ever been at the movies, and an interesting selection of films that changes frequently. Minus a star for minor complaints - they don't take debit and I've had difficulties with their online ticketing system.
My favorite theatre in town! Easily the best seats in town and the staff has been friendly. Plus their ticket prices are very reasonable!
Love the reclining seats, don't like all the stairs
Great comfy reclining seats! Plus i lost my phone there and they returned it to me!!!
Very comfortable seats, large projections and reasonable concession and ticket prices.
Huge comfy chairs with pop out leg rests and reclining backs. Awesome.
Decent prices. Ramp up to the individual theaters makes for general accessibility. Individual cushioned seating in theaters, smaller screens. Stairs to exit individual theaters (optional) lead to a strange under-building catacomb of exits, 10/10 recommend.
I love this theater. Great movies at a better than expected price.
WOW!! AUTOMATED LEATHER RECLINERS WITH SUPER WIDE ARMRESTS!! I'M IN LOVE.
Great popcorn ???????????? and cozy seats ???? friendly employees
Every theater has reclining pleather seats, the employees are personable and helpful! Any problem you have the employees will try to help.
Great price good seats and free refill on lg pop and popcorn
If there's 12 people in the lineup and one cashier, set up that one ladies gift cards with another cashier? It's not rocket science, it's called efficiency. Apart from the sloth like service, the seats in the theatre were totally wonderful.
My favorite! Comfy seats cheap! One free refill on large pop and popcorn
Iconic Victoria movie theater. Been around for ages. My favorite theater of all time!
Super comfortable seats, good service too.
It's great to have another theatre downtown! Capitol 6 is finally open again with huge, plush recliners. The seats are fantastic and comfy. The screens look huge and the sound is booming. There were some issues with the projector and the whole system had to be restarted but I expect that was probably a one-off. The cost is reasonable - $7 on Tuesdays with a $3 surcharge on 3D movies. The experience leading to the movie is a little unusual. The lobby is sparsely decorated and we were all confused as to where to go since there is little signage encouraging people to go upstairs to have their tickets ripped. There are no prices at the concession for combos which led to each individual ahead of us having to ask. The popcorn was subpar - they don't serve butter here, just "buttery topping". Honestly, even if this was the most plain-Jane theatre, the fact that they have reserved seating would make me a repeat customer.
Great service and seating. Typical concession. Bonus points for serving tea. Interior is a little tired.
Seats are amazing. Staff is friendly. But theater screen has too much light spill.
my favourite cinema due to having the most comfy reclining seats, free refills on large sizes and clean bathrooms.
I am a movie buff. I go to the cinema at least once a week and I tend to go between Tillicum Silver City, Odeon downtown and Capitol 6. Capitol 6 is probably my favourite. It features the most comfortable seats of all the afformentioned theatres on Victoria. This theatre also seems to have a strong customer service team. In addition the prices for matinees are stellar and thus far I haven't had any bad popcorn. Also the Coca-Cola freestyle machine is a great bonus. Refill on large drink and popcorn is also a nice benefit. There are ample bathrooms (including a gender neutral option).
The seats are incredible. Can't beat the $8 Tuesday admission too.
They were awesome. Stayed for two movies
This theatre is my favorite in town, really sad to see it go :( Love the seats!
I was not expecting the recliner Lazy Boy seats. This place is definitely a hidden gem. The theaters were clean and the staff were very friendly. I loved this place and will absolutely recommend it to anyone and everyone, and will be coming back next time I'm in Victoria and want to watch a movie.
All the seating are recliners and about the same price as a movie elsewhere. As usual the concession is pricey and limited. It is definitely a great place to go see a movie on the big screen and relax in the oversize cushy recliners. :)
Wonderful place to watch movies! The chairs are leather recliners!
Imagine a theater that you go to like cineplex, except its cheaper in price, seats are way better, building is more aesthetically pleasing. Projector and audio quality is on par, or better than many cineplex auditoriums (excluding Atmos auditoriums) And best of all, the place feels like home Capital 6, please never sell your business! If anything expand 1 more theater to mainland (not downtown Vancouver)
Comfiest movie theatres sits I've ever experienced. Cushioned, wide, and with electric footrest / recline functions. I want these seats in my house! 10/10 would nap through a movie again. ^_^
Way better than cinneplex. Cheaper, amazing seats, and affordable concession
Such a sad old building, typical of any aging cinema. No soul or happy décor. The defining feature... the chairs... Oh the chairs! Would pay just to sit in them for an hour. Best cinema seats I've had the pleasure to park my ass on. Just lay back and enjoy the film.
The recliner seats are the best in town and the customizable pop is great too!
Good
I like the new recliner chairs, and they are still reasonably priced but don't always get the blockbusters.
Best comfy theayer seats. Powered and reclining. Very roomy
Favourite movie theatre in Victoria. Free drink refills and awesome seats!
Giant comfy space seats that recline. And enough leg room to recline and still have people get through. The seats along the edge could be better angled toward the screen, but not terrible. Great to have a second theatre option downtown again
Great theater. Spacious, leather reclining seats. Lots of leg room. The $7 popcorn is a total rip off of course, but theres lots of good food nearby.
Great to see this long time theatre back in business. Highlights include reserved seating & the best reclining chairs in the city. They go way back!
Theatre has very strict Covid-19 measures, which means buying two seats in the middle almost certainly guarantees that you get the row to yourself. And with every other row vacant, the closest other person is much more than 6 ft away. all the staff wear masks and gloves. I feel much safer seeing movies in this theatre than some of the other ones in town.
Dreamy. Beautiful theatre. Amazing seats.
Clean, spacious, great seating. Recommended for any movie. Popcorn is pretty great too.
Seats are amazing and it's still cheaper than SilverCity
well i have mixed opinions on capitol 6 theatres. strange choice to show despicable me 2 three years after its release. 3.5 out of 5
My favorite theater in Victoria! The reclining chairs put all other local theaters to shame.
Love the new chairs... i will never go to Silver city again!
I simply quite like it here. It feels slightly outdated (which I find charming) and has the comfiest reclining arm chairs. There is a huge gorgeous tree growing through the center of the entrance to the theater. They have a gender neutral washroom, but it is separate from the others. It would be nice to see that integrated with a bit more regularity.
You wouldn't know this was a movie theater from the outside but the seats are very comfortable and reclining.
25 bucks for me and the missus and comfiest cinema seats I've ever sat in
Great comfy chairs better than cineplex!
Amazing seats and cheaper than silvercity! Will never go back to a Cineplex after experiencing a movie like this.
Lovely experience, friendly staff, and nicer than the big theatres.
Small theatre, huge lazy boy recliners and good snacks. Best theatre in Victoria without a doubt. So comfy, so relaxing. Wish I could come here everyday
Great place, good chairs and sound and video.
Awesome seats.. screen could have been a little bigger.. but nothing can beat the seats.. price is not too extravagant so all in all a great place to watch the movies..
My favourite theatre in Victoria. Great seats! Electric recliners.
Great place to see a flick. The reclining seats are amazing. It’s like watching a big screen movie in your living room.
Best Theatre in town for sure.Locally owned as well!! Reclining chairs in every theatre!!
The chairs are super comfy. I love this theatre.
This movie theater is so luxurious and clean!!! The seat are leather, extremely comfortable and electronic so you can position them however you want them. The concession stand isn't expensive at all and the tickets are reasonably priced. Definitely will return and highly reccomend this theater
It's so early 80s in its attempts to look like the future and now that it is the future the decor is just like Die Hard. The screen are garbage but it's just so charming. Good popcorn too!
Incredible sound system and their recliners are even more comfortable than the newly reno'd Cineplex seats.(which are also nice). Makes going to the movies exciting again! Can't wait for my next visit.
This is the best, and most comfortable theatre I have seen a film in. The ticket prices are really decent considering you get a full out electronic recliner for a seat. The concession prices aren’t bad, and the Coke machine is really cool. Loved trying the new pop flavours. The staff were all pleasant and friendly. Will be back!
Best theater in town. Also the first to rock the recliner chairs - I think. For any of you plant nuts out there - they've got a massive fiddle leaf fig tree in the atrium. Pretty Neato if you ask me. NB: I'm not plant expert - but my wife is pretty darn sure on this one.
Capitol is a great Cineplex with beautiful experience. I loved it
Small theatres with reclining seats. Costs a little less than going to a Cineplex. They also play artsy films which is a bonus.
My first time back at Capitol 6 since it reopened under new ownership. Honestly, it was terrific. The place was spotless, the staff were super friendly, the seats were comfortable and the screen size was good. I refuse to go to the Odeon across the street as it has become an absolute dumpster fire of a theatre, but the Capitol 6 was great. I will definitely be back.
A great value and awesome seats!
Theatre was comfortable, however the concession stand closed within 10 minutes of the movie starting. Very disappointing when you'd like an extra snack or drink during the movie.
Reclining seats here are great. They do charge extra for butter, which was different for us. Reserved seating is also good.
We had the theater to ourselves, comfortable chairs...not bad.
This is hands down, my prefered theater in Victoria! The seats recline all the way back and the screens are place strategically higher. The seats are 4-5 inches wider than cinaplex across the street. They have an awesome movie selection that seem to appeal to a more mature crowd.
My favourite theatre! The seats are large and comfortable and recline nicely. The staff is always nice every time I go and there are always empty theatres at night to enjoy
Comfortable recliner seats. Just make sure you go early to ensure your seat actually reclines. My seat was intermittently acting up.
The theatre has reclining seats that can be individually selected online for easy seat selection. The large popcorn and soda are also refillable.
Reasonable prices, amazing seats in a small theater
New huge reclining lounge chairs. The most comfortable in Victoria
Great place to watch movies.comfortable seats and comfy atmosphere.the only problem is that seats are little low which blocks the view of the person sitting at the back and also they have selective amount of movies.other than that highly recommended place to watch movies.
Omg. This theatre was closed for years and has now reopened to have the most bad ass reclining seats imaginable. And the theatre keeps to its old school roots: no annoying video games and lighting, still has its old 80s carpets. Tuesdays are only $7. One thing: Please provide local pops from Phillips and real butter. Maybe some healthier snack alternatives too. If you do something new and support local, your business will soar!
This is my favourite theatre, where you can choose your own recliner seats!
Pretty good movie theatre that now has reclining seats which is a huge plus. The seats are comfortable and the location of the theatre is convenient if you're downtown.
Great seats,the screen is on the smaller side similar to odeon downtown. Concession stand is reasonable and I think prices include taxes so that is awesome as well.
Screens are pretty small but the decor is beautiful. Every auditorium has reclining seats, which I don't care much about but other people seem to enjoy. They show a lot of smaller release and indie films which makes it a great alternative to Cineplex.
I love a seats here . So comfy
Want to go to a theatre that reminds you of your childhood? Well if you’re a millennial then this one’s it. Very cool winding staircase/ramp leading up to the second floor. Clean space, friendly staff, neat building with conical window (don’t see windows much at all in most movie theatres), and old timey concession stand. One thing though, the seats were not cleaned from the previous audience. I know this because I sat down while it was ending and there was no staff cleaning anything in between. I get that there is a labour shortage but also it’s never been more important to clean between showings… Will definitely come back, even though a bit pricey!
Giant, super comfortable, reclining chairs. Cool looking inside, kinda retro. Screens are a decent size and sound is great! They barely care when you and your friends make a ridiculously obvious stop at Bulk Barn before your movie... 10/10.
It's a nice theater but the seats are a bit small
The new recliners are awesome. I will go here over other theaters for everything but big 3D blockbusters.
Changing over to big comforter style chairs has made this one of the best theaters in town.
BEST SEATS IN TOWN! Some of the staff are a little umm... off.
Super comfy seats with seat selection. The screens are smaller than you would see at other theatres, but it didn't detract from our experience at all. Prices honestly can't be beat. Love this theatre!
Great theatre, magnificent seats, reasonable prices. Only downside is film selection, but that's being slowly fixed
Aside from the wonderful seating, it's a nice change having the movie actually start on time instead of sitting through 20 minutes of ads like at cineplex. The online ticket purchasing is a breeze too. Only complaint is the bathroom stalls were in disrepair. I'll certainly be going back though!
This is the best theatre in Victoria period.The seats are comfortable and recline, popcorn rocks, free pop refills and the staff are excellent. Also very good selection of Movies too!!!
Great seats and amazing fountain pop machine.
Probably the most low key place you can go to for movies. Great seats! And just a mellow place to be at
The chair setup at Capitol 6 is much more comfortable then at the Odeon across the street. It seems like they've redone the screens in all the theaters since they previously were fairly damaged and didn't look too great. Prices are similar, especially with food. Generally the overpriced movie fare you expect.
So lovely to have access to an accessible theatre with comfortable seating! Usually I can't sit through a film due to nerve pain & the seating here works for me.
The screens are a bit small but the leather reclining chairs are fantastic!!!
Best seats! Super comfortable. Fantastic price.
Best theatre in Victoria!
My friend works there and it is awesome. Easily better than silver city
So we booked the Tuesday night, cheap night for a movie. We arrived at the cinema, to be surprised by the luxury leather electronic recliner chairs! The surround sound was great. The only criticism is the screens are slightly smaller than other cinemas so book in advance to avoid the back row seats (though the reclining chairs will make you comfortable anywhere). They have truly chosen quality over quantity and their staff are the friendliest I have ever come across in a cinema. Because of this, Capitol 6 is our new go-to Cinema. Thank you
Okay experience overall, I've been there for 2 movies and felt the sound was very loud, the seats are comfy though with enough space between them.
This theatre is fantastic. Grab a reserved deluxe recliner and enjoy your movie without being shoehorned into a seat you'd feel bad sticking a 3 year old in. The screens are decent size, and the sound is excellent, even if it isn't IMAX sound. I'll definitely go here over any other theatre as long as my movie is showing there.
Great seats
Full reclining seats throughout. Reserved seating. Easy parking downtown and the widest choice of dining options around the city. Love getting my weekly movie fix at Capital Six.
Have enjoyed coming here since I was a little girl. Always my favourite theatre.
Great addition to Victoria, love that they are back in business. Popcorn easily surpasses across the street. Seating is amazing, and they have cheap tuesdays too!!
Best theater in Victoria. Comfortable seats and you can book ahead of time. Food is average movie theater food ... but that's my only real complaint.
Great seats, cheaper concession, and old school cool.
A little too long of a wait in line to purchase ticket(s). Cool you get to pick yout seating from a map, but not cool if your with someone and not able to sit side by sife. Seats are very comfortable, recliners.
Snacks are really expensive but the reclining seats are fantastic.
I haven't been inside a movie theatre for years, and I've definitely never been in one with electronically powered easy chairs! Extremely comfortable way to enjoy a movie. The sound was excellent. I absolutely loved watching the new Blade Runner movie there. Except I was freezing even while wearing a sweater under a winter jacket and a toque. I'm sorry I left my gloves in the car. So, excellent movie theatre but it could use some heat. ????
Really like the new power recliners, the only complaint is the theatre room itself needs a facelift and to be acousticly treated better. it sounds hollow and a bit flat. Missing the richness of the low end mid tones.
The seats and service make going out to watch a movie a worthwhile luxury.
The new seats are fantastic! I also love how they play film scores in all the common areas of the building. It's also very refreshing to be able to talk with people before the film starts instead of trying to yell over obnoxious commercials. I'm glad I didn't have too much to drink before going to this theater as it can be difficult to get past other seats during the film when everyone in your row and the one in front is fully reclined. The seat motors take just long enough to get out of the way to possibly make the experience feel awkward. I will definitely be coming back here often.
Our favorite cinema in the city! Always clean and relaxing. The chairs are super comfy and big! Perfect for social distancing. Always a great selection of movies playing too.
I love supporting a theatre that isn't Silver City. The seats are all extremely comfortable. The sound quality is bomb. And the staff are awesome! I had a special request at concession where I wanted to reduce plastic and waste, so I brought my own containers. They accommodated my weird request and now a turtle is saved because Capitol 6 made a great call.
Small theaters and the best chairs you've ever sat in.
Only come here a few times since its under new owners, good experience slightly more expensive than competition, but they have super comfy seats. They just don't have that many movies playing.
AMAZING seats. Never going to another theatre if the option to go here is available.
The reclining seats are spacious and comfortable. Drink options are customizable. Popcorn is better than Cineplex
This is one of my favorite theaters on the island, employees are great, and it's always fun walking up the spiral ramp. And the seats are top quality!
The reclining chairs are the best. I recommend sitting in the first or second row and then reclining all the way for the most immersive experience.
The new chairs are super comfortable. Unfortunately the popcorn and hotdog is sub par. I would love it if they worked out a deal with local food vendors like Foo Bar or Brickyard Pizza so you could have local food and drink delivered right to the theatre.
The amenities are old, but clean. The screens a little smaller, but the chairs are second to none and the staff are always super friendly. This is always my theater of choice and haven't had a bad experience yet.
Great seats, nice staff and good prices overall on food & drinks. Will definitely return:)
Best movie theatre in Victoria. My only complaint is that the point of sale terminals have the American Express logo, but do not actually accept the it.
The price of capitol 6 is competitive with Cineplex, and you get a similar experience - albeit a much more private one because it appears that people haven't caught on about it yet. Concession prices are very comparable to competitors and they have the sought after reclining chairs. I find they aren't as comfortable as the Cineplex ones but they do the trick for sure.
This is the best theatre in Victoria period.The seats are comfortable and recline, popcorn rocks, free pop refills and the staff are excellent. Also very good selection of Movies too!!!
Very clean place. And recliner seats were very comfortable. Made the whole experience great ????
A couple of our employees recently watched "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" at this theatre. The only seats available to them were in the very front row. Fortunately the reclining chairs made all the difference. Our employees were able to comfortably watch the movie. The movie itself was interesting, and the theatre is definitely comfortable. The staff were incredibly friendly as well!
It was awesome time , loved the seats, movie was good too
Hands down my favorite place to watch a flick! Went many times as a kid, so it being up a sense of nostalgia. Thanks for making an old theatre polished and up to date:)
Definitely worth the slightly higher ticket prices than Cineplex. Seating is more spacious and has two separate controls for reclining and footrest. There aren't any seats right up under the screen like at Cineplex so no worries about getting stuck craning your neck. Plus the building is cool, I enjoy walking up the spiral ramp in the foyer!
Amazing seats and I enjoy the online reservation system!
As comfy as being in my living room. Truly amazing. Theatres like this will keep theatres alive.
Comfiest seats ever. Much more luxurious than the odeon but still a small theater feel.
Best theatre in town. Seats are incredible. Screens are small but you forget about that because the picture and sound is amazing.
Seats are COMFORTABLE ,,, NICE and FRIENDLY Staff ,,, Popcorn was well made by Young Kid in concession stand BEST THEATER !!!
Best movie theatre I've ever been
Great theatre, extremely comfy seats, prefer this one over the Odeon. The small screens/rooms at Capitol 6 are better in every way, and the largest room is close to Silver City quality.
By far my favourite place to catch a movie in Victoria... The theatre itself is super awesome, great building. Food is good, popcorn good, yummy slushie drinks. Oh and super comfy recliners! So glad the Capital 6 is back :)
Loved it seating was amazing definitely gonna go back soon
Super luxurious recliner seating. Assigned seating, so book in advance if possible. Beautiful interior. Good sized screens, and speaker system.
Haven't been too that movie theatre in years. Very nice upgrade with lazy boy chairs. Clean bathrooms. Kids and I very much enjoyed the movie experience
Loved watching Black Panther in this theatre!! I had no idea how nice the theatre was inside... I’ve grown up in Victoria and never been in!
Comfy seats but the volume was a bit loud.
Great new seats provide luxury, and intimacy usually felt in the comfort of your own home. The sound and video have been upgraded to to deliver an amazing experience. The building itself is a local landmark and the spiraling ramp up to the theaters is once again enjoyed by another generation of Victorians when the theater reopened its doors. The tickets are reasonable and the staff are friendly. This theater does away with the price and glitz of the big box theaters and focuses on the value of a good solid movie going experience.
Extremely comftorable reclining chairs and a very unique soft drink station. Sometimes the chairs in front can be in the way of the screen which can be annoying, but as long as the people in front of you recline (which is the reason they came to this theater), it isn't a problem.
Comfiest seats in the Southern Vancouver Island area
They have self serve drink fountains from your dreams and great seats.
Very well could be the best theatre I’ve ever been to, save for a few issues. The theatres are very close to the concession, and as a result the conversations from the staff bleed in to the theatre while watching the film (at least this was the case for Screen 3), and the actual screen is quite small. Having said that, the reclining seats are immaculate, and the Dolby surround really puts you in the movie. Also incredibly friendly staff and great atmosphere.
The reclining seats are awesome! And more important it's clean!
Very comfortable, amazing seats, not crowded. A little expensive though.
With luxury recliner seating and reserved seating in every theater, this is the best theater in town!
The building itself is fun, the ramp and the glass cone roof but the real draw is their reclining seats. Super comfortable
The reclining chairs is hands down the best movie experience you can go for. Highly recommend checking out your next flick here!
Very comfortable seats. Also the new pop machines with all the flavours you can imagine!
Awesome, almost fully reclinable seat. Worth every dollar
It's cool and all but the service (at least from my visit) wasn't the best
Wow! This is the best movie theatre we’ve ever been to. The reclining seats are to die for. Fully electric, leather seats make the move watching experience so luxurious and comfortable. Plus you get a free refill on a large popcorn or drink. I don’t know how we can go back to Cineplex after this!
The reclining seats are so comfortable! Like many locals, I'm glad this theater is back although the lines can be long (go early), the viewing experience is cozy and amazing. They also have great teas in concession which is a plus in the winter.
I love this theatre so much and will be sad when it’s gone! Super comfy loungers, and great movies. It’s cold, though, so I always bring a big coat to use as a blanket.
Pretty good place for a movie, seats are amazing. Popcorn is pretty good, the nachos are ok. Service is always great!
If only the screens and sound were as good as the seats.
Great new seats, great sound, large screen.
The most comfortable chairs in the city. You could literally go there just to enjoy them for a couple of hours. The popcorn is not the best in the movie industry, but it does the job. Tip: go there on Tuesdays and enjoy the discounted prices. Great cinema, we love it!
I don't like these grandfather seats they have. They must have been expensive. And the sound is always extremely loud. It's not fun to sit there with your fingers in your ears and your feet dangling for two hours.
Great theatre seating. Some of the best recliners in the city.
Great staff, especially Brad! Always great seeing movies here. Comfiest seats in the city!
Seats are amazing sounds good, looks good, not a big deal but very dated movie theater.
One word: Recliners. Most comfortable theatre in Vic. No more sore bum from sitting too long. Online tickets with pre-selected seating makes it easy. All seats are a great view.
Most comfortable seats ever.
My two boys & I. Visited Capitol 6 for the first time to watch "baby boss" in 3D. What an experience! The boys were ecstatic: superior seats, clean place, friendly staff and great theatrw/movie.
Comfortable seats, reasonable prices.
Great theatre with comfortable seats and a helpful staff!
First time being in this building in over 25 years. Same old theater but new reclining chairs. The feet rests don't go all the way up which is steerage, but otherwise okay. $25 for a bag of popcorn and 2 large pop, so make sure you smuggle your own drinks and snacks in. Don't support highway robbery of popcorn or fountain drinks that cost pennies! And parking is horrendous due to the bike lanes, so it may be better to go to a different theater out of downtown!
Fantastic experience. Very comfortable and spacious reclining seats. Best movie experience I have had in a long time. All for a good price.
Comfy seats
MICE AGAIN! I could here some thing chopping behind me sounded like popcorn in theatre 2 today. Turned my phone light on and sure enough a mouse took off. Same thing happened a few years ago when I saw a Star is Born. Seen mice at DT odeon as well. Best way is to find out how they are getting in the building to fix this. Never seen mice at Silvercity which I been to hundreds of times, or the Langford Odeon. Capital 6 is nice theatre but hearing mice eat popcorn behind you is not the movie experience you pay for!
They have almost better seats than cineplex. They recline alot more however my butt still thinks cineplex has a better cushion. Screen size is also slightly larger than cineplex Victoria. So overall this location beats cineplex Victoria, due to larger screens and seat that do alittle more. Only downside is they only have 3 movies at any given time.
Love the chairs, love that because it is a smaller place, they have made it over the top comfortable. Will go again for sure!
The seats are so amazing! Makes the movie so much more enjoyable when you can put your feet up. Just like you're watching at home.
I would always choose this theatre over Cineplex. Despite the fact that they both have reclining seats , as the ones at this theatre are way more comfortable. Not stadium seating, but the seats make up for that.
I love the character of this theater! They have added reclining seats which makes the theater even more lovable.
The seats are very comfy, fully reclining with leg rest. Concessions are very expensive however
This place is a great luxury movie theatre, big comfortable reclining seats great sound. The snacks are exactly the same as every theatre.
Watched Marakkar from here. Loved the screen, seat, and ambience. Hridayam tickets seats were sold out before I could book. Hoping you'll add more shows.
Great theatre one of the best bathrooms to smash dope in
Great theatre with comfy seats, custom fountain drinks, and silk road tea.
Super Comfy seats, great atmosphere
Almost like home in the theater. The reclining seats are so comfortable! If I brought a blanket and I happened to pick a movie I found dull, I would have an amazing nap.???? All the staff were friendly; from ticket booth to concession staff. If only I could get a hot tea, I would consider this a mini-vacation.
Best movie theater experience so far. 10/10
Such comfortable chairs! Like the self-serve pop, too. Self-serve ticket print never scans for me, but manual entry works.
Fancy and comfy seats , big screen, good location!
I like this theatre a lot! It's very old school looking in the common areas but inside the theatres, they have very comfy seats (much better than Cineplex) and they have a great sound system. The lose a star only because thier popcorn is only meh. They use butter that tastes like it's been sitting on the counter uncovered for weeks. If they could pick up thier popcorn game, they'd be a five star experience for sure.
It’s a pretty chill place. Their seat are incredibly comfortable and they have lots of different flavor drinks ????
Great revamp in this theatre! The new chairs are so freaking comfortable! I wish the screens were a bit bigger though, and the sound wasn’t as “surround” as it should’ve been. Overall, worth the comfy chairs!!!
We went for a Tuesday matinee, had the whole theater to ourselves. Movie was good and the staff very friendly ????????
Comfy seats, not sure why I prefer this cinema to the others in the area. Empty daytime Monday...
Best seating and venue in town period. My favourite cinema in Victoria.
Went to a matinee with my granddaughter. Nice place. Clean with great seating.
Large spacious full-leather seats, with full leg and back controls. Reasonably priced, tickets and concessions.
Relived the Apollo 11 landing at Capital 6. Nice seats, clear screen. Fine company. Great experience.
First, the men's washroom is the worst smelling washroom ever. It's as if the urinals empty onto the floor. It is truly nasty. If you want to smell the combined urine of thousands of men, this is where you need to be. Second, some of the back row seats have been positioned behind the surround sound system. Behind it! If you choose these seats, you'll pay the same as everyone else, but you will be outside of the experience from a sound perspective that everyone else in the theatre will have. Nicely done, Capitol 6. Huge ripoff. Third (hopefully this is fixed) I recently attended a movie (Black Panther) where the sound only came out of the left hand speakers. The whole movie was in mono! Is nobody paying attention? Fourth, no one knows how to scan their prepaid ticket codes! The system is a gigantic failure. Line ups of people swearing and feeling frustrated and stupid. Good one, Capitol 6. You've invented an almost paperless system, except there's a whole confusing step involved of scanning phones (which doesn't work) and then printing out paper at the end? Arrg! Big fail! So why did I give more than one star? The staff seems nice.
Very comfortable large reclining seats, excellent sound, friendly staff!
Very helpful staff! We bought our tickets online and the manager was kind enough to refund the difference when we found out my mom and aunt could get the senior's special. The reclining seats are amazing and it was nice to see the staff were cleaning them all after our show.
Accidentally left the phone on the seat, and asked if it was possible to take a look at it. Even tho we sat at the very back with no one behind us, staff was not willing to check for us. Really terrible customer service. Will not go again.
Hands down - feet up - the best cinema seats in Victoria! Staff are friendly and popcorn is g-o-o-d. Concession service was fast and efficient. I like the retro colour scheme; reminds of going to the theatre in the 80's - cool! Smaller screens with Dolby Surround: try sit in the mid-rows centre to get the best sound effects. I like the fact I can choose my seats in advance. The seats recline really well and the footrest lays you almost flat out facing the screen - nice! The buttons are easy to see and use on your right armrest. There's lots of legroom if someone has to get by you. The movie was $13, a medium buttered popcorn $8 per person. It's a great choice to see latest releases on the big screen in a comfy, roomy recliner. Only problem: washrooms are upstairs from the theatre level. Go before the movie starts so don't miss any of the action running upstairs mid-movie.
Since it's been renovated, it's increased from 3 stars to 5. If you're okay not seeing an imax quality movie, see it here. Seats are the best in town and male all the difference
Really nice, comfy leather seats with power reclining features. I like the option of buying certain seating online prior of selecting your seat while paying in person. Im the type to go and get some snacks and maybe use the restroom before looking for a seat, and usually end up having to settle for whats left. With the select seating option, i can take my time! Get there early as there aren't many seats per screen
Went to see The French Dispatch here on the 29th and had a good time! I bought my ticket online and scanning my vaxport, id, and collecting my ticket was a very easy process. Cool interior and good film :)
This is hands down the best theater in Victoria. The most comfy and roomy seats you will find. Yes the screens are smaller than silver city, but the sound is so much better, not as loud but so much clearer. The popcorn is spectacular. Staff is friendly and seem to genuinely like their jobs. If you have a choice between this theater or another for your movie night, pick this one, you won't be sorry
We called ahead and booked four seats together, when we got to the theatre to pick up the tickets and see the film, they had sold two of the four reserved seats to someone else. We had traveled to see the movie and were left frustrated.
A grand ole experience, with a giant living tree in it's lobby that has grown in its spiraling ramp way so cool!
Superbly comfortable seats and welcoming staff. Highly recommended for dates and groups of friends.
There is a massive fiddle leaf fig tree in the middle and it is so happy! The comfiest movie seats fully adjustable!!!! 10/10 most comfortable theatre, although the butter on the popcorn could be layered better.
BEST movie theatre in the city! Comfortable, clean, affordable, and best reclining theatre seats ever. Highly recommended. My go-to.
Great staff! Great seats! Great concession! Great Screens! Great Everything!
The seats are fantastic, very comfy movie experience.
Great revamp of a Victoria classic, nicely done. Amazingly spacious and comfortable seats.
Lovely theatre, comfy seats, good prices
The recliner chairs are deadly comfortable. I find myself close to falling asleep.
Great prices, Amazing seats. Would pay more for tickets cause of those beautiful recliners.
I'm not sure if every theater is like this - but in ours the seats reclined and a foot rest even came up. Extremely roomy comfy!! Would recommend.
It was great going back to a theatre from my childhood! The munchies were great, the chairs were very comfortable, and the air conditioning was perfect! I think I jumped more than my son did, while watching A Quiet Place 2????
The seats were comfy and the theater was empty
Comfy seats! My first reclining experience. The only thing that would make it 5 stars is a liquor license.
So comfortable! It's awesome to have a seat big enough for grown-ups instead of being packed in like sardines, and the reclining aspect is really nice too. Also a good selection of drinks, including regular and decaf coffee, 4 flavors of Slush Puppie, and more diet options than just cola. I'd much rather see movies here than any of the other theatres in town.
Really enjoyable and comfortable theatre with great staff and great movie selections. It's close to where I live and work so I will definitely be enjoying more movies with these guys. The seats are always really comfortable regardless of the movie you see. Looking forward to even more experiences at this location.
New upgrades, specifically fully adjustable reclining seats, make this theatre a comfortable experience.
Great seats and friendly staff. Will not go anywhere without such seats ever again. Typical low quality food with no healthy options. Wish theatres would be a touch more progressive with food options.
Their seats make them the Capitol of the movie-watching business! I'll walk myself out.
Just went for Guardians 2, and my god I don't want to go to any other theatre again.. like ever, such amazing value and comfortable watching it was amazing and for once truly better than watching at home. Props to the fancy pop machine too!
Loved it. Very clean and courteous staff.
Best theatre in DT Victoria. Brand new, clean, great knowledgeable staff, and they like serious film.
Located in the downtown area this recently revived local gem offers alternative movies the other theatres might not. Upon entering you buy your ticket and walk up a spiral ramp in to the theatres on the second floor. Which I'd say creates a great atmosphere perfect for the kids. The employees are always friendly and the adjustable reclining chairs are the comfiest in the city!
Love this theater great movies and friendly staff!! What else do you need? And don't forget to grab a snack!
Great experience. The staff were friendly and nice. The movie theatre was fantastic, wonderful idea filling them with recliners. Will return there over the big ones from now on
Love it!
Best Seats in town! And love their pop machine self serve - every flavour i want:-)
Great comfy seats but screen was really small.
Great renovations!! Seats are amazing!! Food selection is a bit classic. Maybe add some more variety!!
Very hygiene warm welcome
Very hygiene warm welcome
The new seats here and aisle width makes going here so pleasant. Been to two movies in two weeks.
Overall a great experience. Very comfortable recliner seats, service is good, prices are affordable.
Best seats, no commercials, always a pleasure.
I love that we can see movies again. Entered and saw it was quiet and the place ran by kids. Went to see snake eyes and soon as the movie starts, a homeless man enters and immediately drops his dufflebag and falls asleep. 25 min into the movie and he is snoring away, snoring so loud I went and complained. 10 min later I walked out demanding a refund. A 4 foot female told me to "just go" without giving me a refund. They were nice enough to give me free passes. I wonder if the homeless man will show up again ????
My favorite theater in Victoria ! Coke machine is so cool , great popcorn, and great seats. Also has a cozy feel to it, with a nice spiral entrance and beautiful tree in the center .
So comfy! By far the best theater in Victoria.
LOVED IT. love the new recliners . So spacious
I love this theatre and I'm so happy that they reopened. The seating is great, the sound is awesome, the picture is top notch. I'd take this place over The Odeon any day.
This is the best cinema I’ve ever been!!!! The amazing electronic recliners are the highlight of the experience! Super comfortable! The quality of image and sound is perfect! Also the popcorn and nachos were delicious! I can’t wait to go again!
Sweet movie theatre; book your seats in advance for popular movies to get good spots! Super comfortable reclining chairs.
Super recliner seats...wow! Staff very friendly and efficient at the ticket and food counter. Smaller theatres and screens so recommend seating in the middle to front but otherwise a great evening overall.
Great environment to watch a movie with friends
Great theatre. Huge, comfy seats that recline.
Love the new seats!! Amazing! Will be back for sure!
Great reclining seats ????
Capitol 6 has the best chairs in town, the new ownership has given the whole place a more cozy feel.
I love the new seats, and the new drink machine. Great theater.
Fantastic seats with the recliners. I really like the ability to book online before hand. No more waiting in line to get a good seat. Concession has whatever you need for a movie. I wanted a coffee and they brewed me a fresh pot. Great service and friendly staff.
Comfy seats!
Great little theater with awesome seats I highly recommend
They have the best seats and ticket and concession prices are good!
Parking is even worse then when we were young, but the leather recliners definitely made up for it. Staff was friendly and relaxed. I went on a slow Sunday afternoon, and still ended up waiting in line because of the pick your seat while you pay making the transaction seem to take far longer then necessary, but again I guess the seat made up for it lol
Lazyboy style chairs make this theater top notch
Other than not offering Sr. Discounts every day and expensive snacks, it's great. Love those recliners.
Friendly staff, super comfortable, no matter where you seat it’s gonna be a great experience!
Surprisingly clean. Most comfy theater seats I've ever experienced
Old theater but seats are new and updated
The DIY pop machine is cool (and free refills!) - the seats are absolutely amazing. Assigned seating is the best; though I had to get an usher because someone was in my seat; they we friendly and helpful. Excellent theatre.
This is a very nice theatre, with good concession prices and extremely comfortable power recliner seats. Staff were friendly, and the place was clean.
Most amazing recliners in town. More plush and comfortable compared to Cineplex. Very unique architecture and interior design.
Same price for tickets and concessions as most other places, but you get powered leather recliners instead! One button for legs up/down, other button for back up/down. Dangerous if you fall asleep easily as you may not make it through the movie!
Good experience i went to see frozen 2 and there were a lot of like toddlers in the theater so a bunch of crying and yelling wich isn't the theaters fault really but every thing else was good
This cinema is stunning. Best seats in all of Victoria. If you would like to be able to recline and put your feet up in a clean theatre, this is the cinema for you. This place has great snack options and friendly staff who are not intrusive. Big kudos to the staff and management for replacing carpet with solid flooring in each theatre for easy cleaning. It makes a huge difference!
Wonderful staff! Lovely theatre, thank you!!!
It was good and the movie was fantastic
Amazing chairs, but the ramp might be steep for some people.
Excellent experience! Comfortable chairs! Good snacks! Small screen but it didn't phase myself, my 7r old or grandma. Lovely look to the place.
This theatre has the best seats (those extra large, highly adjustable ones).
Super comfy seats n a tasty $3.50 hotdog
Amazing reclining seats with lots of room between rows. Great movie experience.
The newly revived Capitol 6 brought some much needed competition to the cinema scene in Victoria. Their seats are the comfiest in town but their popcorn could use some work.
Good chair small screen. One of the best in the island.
Love this place!! Can't beat the comfy seats
Wonderful movie theatre with reasonable ticket prices in a great location downtown. The reclining seats are so comfortable, too!
I love the new set up, can get a refill for pop/popcorn when you get large and friendly staff! My new favorite theatre! ???? Forget the other guys across the street!
Awesome new chairs that fully recline with a foot rest. The screens are a bit small still except theatre 1 which looked bigger.
Those reclining seats are amazing!
The electric recliner chairs make this a very good place for a movie. The sound system is very nice and if you like being downtown. There are several very good restaurants nearby. Perfect for the dinner and movie date night!
Our favourite movie theatre in Victoria. Great reservable seats.
Good theater, has some of the most comfortable seats, offers online booking, has free refills on popcorn and drinks. The only reason I see not alot of people going is that it's downtown. But there's free parking nearby after 6, and ev charging. Plus, because it's not super busy it means there's no three-year-olds kicking your seat or yelling! Overall, this is my go-to movie place for Victoria. Love it!
Great cinema with fully reclining, electric seats. Good value for money
Super comfy seats with tons of leg room and places to put your snacks and drinks. Washrooms really close by so you don't miss too much of the movie when ya gotta go
After going to Capitol 6 we haven't been able to go to other theatres because we love this one so much. Good seats and the refills on the large popcorn and drink is good too
Best reclining seats and clean theatres. Great cinema
Gotta get a loan to afford the snacks. Better seats than the competition across the street.
Victoria staple Makes me nostalgic for my childhood.
Great theatre, lax on security, so bring in all the snacks you can with you. Amazing custom seats, and not at all peaked in any theatre, also very reasonable price for the seats
Love this theatre, the full size cushy chairs have separate controls for the foot and recline functions. Very nice concession.
Best movie theatre downtown forsure. Large leather reclining seats and larger screens than the cineplex next door.
The seats are comfy and adjustable but it results in less seating so 45 minutes before a movie started, there were no options for a party of 3 to sit together. Popcorn tasted off. Not sure if I'll return.
Great comfy seats with less expensive tickets than Cineplex theatres!
Comfiest seats ever! Good prices too.
First time here. LOVED the seats. Movie was great. Saw Mamma Mia.
The popcorn is so bland I swore I would never come back to this theatre. I gave it a second chance and went back again, and the popcorn was equally sub par.
Great show
1 star for the snarky & rude petite red head 'manager'we had to deal with tonight. Boyfriend and I went tonight to the 7:20 showing of snake eyes on July 27th. About 5 minutes into the movie a man came in the row behind me directly to my left threw a large duffle bag down then got comfy. About 20 minutes later we start hearing snoring. Snoring goes on for another 20 minutes getting louder and louder. People rows ahead are turning to look. Boyfriend goes to alert staff and comes back. We wait a few minutes and no staff come and the man continues to disrupt the theater. We've already lost track of what is going on. We know there's a homeless problem in Victoria. I tried for 40 minutes to ignore the man sleeping behind me making me uncomfortable and the sound of snoring. Obviously he needed a comfy place to sleep and I tried very hard to let it be. But the snoring got so bad. We decided to leave. None of this would have made me leave a bad review. It's not the staffs fault. BUT the rude 'manager' we dealt with was something else. The attitude we received when I said we wanted to leave, her rolling her eyes at us snapping at us 'then leave' then giving us more attitude when we asked for a refund was not acceptable by anyone much less a manager. She called in a much nicer manager a young man who said he would give us a refund (after the red head rolled her eyes to him about us when he walked up). He couldn't give a refund however as the systems were turned off already and we got passes to return next time. Would have preferred a refund as not wanting to return any time soon. The washroom was also dirty, garbage overflowing and the seat next to me was covered in food so clearly not being cleaned between showings.
We love this theatre. Only place to watch movies
The decor inside seems a bit outdated, but the concession service is really good and the seats inside the theater are incredible (you can recline and put up your feet!). Priced the same as other theaters and shows different movies than other mainstream movie theaters. Would definitely recommend.
Super comfy chairs, soft leather recliners.
Since the renovations this is now my favourite place to see movies in Victoria. New seating is extremely comfortable, almost enough to fall asleep in. And they don't charge nearly as much as Cineplex does. Excellent theatre.
The seats are super comfy. It's pretty accessible even if youre injured. I like the combos as well.
My favourite theatre. The best recliners. Great staff. I even love the movie soundtrack music they play before the film. Most of all, I appreciate the lack of the 30 minutes of ads the other chains play before the film starts. For cinephiles like myself, this is pure heaven.
Comfortable seating. Recliner chairs. Enjoyed the movie.
Wonderful comfy reclining seats, good sound.
Have seen many movies here. Seats are plush and comfortable with the ability to recline. Service is super friendly. Popcorn tastes really good and they've got a Coca Cola mix station for soda.
Newly renovated, seats are super comfy!! Cool vibe too
I love the new chairs and I will always love walking up to watch my movie. Brings back memories from 25 years ago ❤
All the seating is made up of great big Lazy Boy type seats. They are fantastic. Very comfy way to enjoy a movie.
Amazing seats, it's like sitting in a recliner in your living room.
Small, less pricey concession than other movie theaters, and super comfortable seats.
Great place to watch a movie and love the reclining seats. Staff are always friendly
The most amazing seats I've ever experienced in a theatre
Now my favorite place to watch movie. Most comfortable seats
My husband and I love the Capital 6 theatre! It is so comfortable and a great deal! We usually bring a blanket as it can be a little chilly but with those seats, the blanket just helps to make us enjoy the experience even more. We recommend to everyone who comes to Victoria!
Love the seats! Recline and watch great movies.
Love the seating and glad it has returned. Multi adjustable recliners are the best in town! Loses a star for rising ticket prices and lack of a rewards program.
Theatre is located in downtown Victoria. Your seats are big; wide reclining leather chairs. All the comforts of home.
Best theater in town. Most comfortable and best popcorn
This is the best Theatre ever!!!!!!! Best Staff! Best Popcorn! Best seats! I wish every Theatre was this great.
Went to see Moana a couple of days after it came out. It felt like we were the only ones in the building... but man the chairs were awesome! Super comfortable. I don't know how they're planning on keeping those suckers clean in the long run but it felt like my butt was the first one in it. I hope they get more business to keep trucking because I definitely want to go there more.
Staff is friendly, theatre has reclining seats.
The chairs encourage you to sleep in the movie.... Beware
Capitol 6 was my favorite theatre as a child, primarily for the spiral ramp, cone shaped skylight, and massive indoor fig tree. It was a sad day when it shut down. It has now been restored, reopened, and improved. Plush seats that recline and adjust in two places, pop machines with options more diverse than anywhere else in Victoria, and $8 for a movie on a Tuesday. Spectacular.
Great theater! Comey leather reclining seats, staff seemed nice. A bit cheaper than most theatres too.
Great, friendly service. They show a variety of films, including independent movies the other theatres won't carry. Fantastic local theatre.
Comfy seats. Really comfy. Huge. Recliners.
This place is amazing now. Why would I go anywhere else for a movie. I love the make-your-own-drink machine. And the recliners are better than the ones at the Odeon. And it's decently priced, too!
Best seats ever..will prob only be going to this theater from now on :)
After Empire closed down and sold some of its asset nation wide to Cineplex, so is this theater. I fully remember the time when I watched Kung Fu Panda 2 with my schoolmates when I was Grade 8 (and another group was watching Pirates 4), after final exams were finished. Years after it was closed, itreopened with the best and the most comfortable recliner seat possible, and it plays quality independent flicks and popular mainstream blockbusters. (Thank you for playing the handmaiden directed by Park Chan Wook, making the only theatre in Victoria to do so, and hopefully more international movies can be played here.) Also, unlike Cineplex, it does not have a 5 minute long commercial time, but it only has a 10 minute trailer time which shows the movie trailer they are very likely to play in this theatre, which is great because it saves time. The only complaint I have is the lack of food selection, and I hope they can improve it as times go by (please add poutine so that I don't have to go to Silver city). But so far the experience has been nothing short of spectacular. 5 star guaranteed. Ladies and gentleman, the Great Capital 6 is back with new sleeves.
Worst service. First, their online paying system wasn't working so we call and they say no problem we will reserve the tickets. Then we show up, and they had not reserved anything. The lady at the counter then offered to give us extra tickets but ended up lying about that too. Never coming back here.
Love the new seats, popcorn is more expensive than Silvercity
The seats are great. Staff was very patient as they counted our quarters by the dozen x
I just don't like the ramp. Otherwise it's perfect. Comfortable seating!!!
Comfy large lean back chairs, like watching at home, except for the large screen. - get to pick your seats too...and the price is great!!!!!
Every theatre has recliners and these are by far the best in town. Good selection of snacks and soda. Reserved seating so there's no rush to find seats.
Nice big recliners. Free refills on larges. Nice to see this theatre open again
Comfortable seats but not enough confectionery staff
The amenities are certainly showing their age, but your actual viewing experience? Fantastic. Full one and a half wide reclining seat experience, akin to sitting in a full "laz-z-boy"! Fantastic alternative to the "big guys" in town. Selective movie choices, but they usually have all the big hits. Concessions are a little bit pricier and limited (not unreasonably so), but there is a bulk barn around the corner ;)
Great seats and friendly environment.
The recliners are amazing. The extra space between rows means I don't have to worry about people bumping my seat. The concession prices are just as bad as cineplex, but I guess they have to make their money somewhere.
So glad this place is back after years of closure. The reclined seating is great, so comfy.
Love the big comphy chairs, all they need to make it ultimate is a cozy blanket and juice in a cocktail glass, like they do in Chiang Mai
This theater has taken every precaution during the pandemic. Reserving out every second row, partisans where applicable, masks where they can't. I was apprehensive going in but that all went away when I saw how they were doing things. Seeing previously great movies on the big screen is a treat and I hope people come out to this theater.
My go to theater in Victoria. The movie selection can be poor sometimes but they keep great movie in for a long time if you miss them the first time around. Most comfortable theater seating I have ever been in. Even more comfortable than Cineplex's VIP theaters.
Good selection of films (including a few that don't show at the Cineplex) and FANTASTIC seating, with super comfortable adjustable armchairs at no extra price. A bit awkward having the gendered bathrooms alone on the top floor (accessible gender neutral bathrooms are on the second), but I guess you can't help historical building layouts. The custom-mix Coke machines are a nice touch. Friendly staff, decent pricing. Surprised it isn't busier.
Better seats than the Odeon and the popcorn is a whole lot better than the Odeon's bag of hydrogenated oil
Most comfortable movie theater I've been lately. Highly recommended. Love them.
Capitol 6 was my favorite theater choice growing up. The building is unique and has an old world glamour to it. So it was nostalgic bliss to walk through the doors of this theater after its 10 year closure. The new seats are incredible! Worth the wait and money well spent.
Best movie theater in town by far
I always choose Capitol 6 over the competition. Bigger better chairs, much shorter concession waits, and excellent friendly staff who seem to be enjoying themselves.
Friendly helpful staff. Actually Super Staff. Marvel STAFF. LOL
Great seats, great experience. But those seats are worth the admission!!!
This theater has the best seats in town and you get free refills on ur drink when you buy a large cup
Wicked movie theater. We come here all the time feels like the old days. Popcorn is good and the seats are amazing ! Friendly staff
Their change to a more luxury layout has really separated it from Cineplex. The chairs are a bit loud when reclining and the screen isn't fantasticly large but it's still very large. As always the concession is expensive. Very enjoyable experience.
Really big reclining chairs, fantastic space to relax and watch with your family
More comfortable chairs than any VIP Theater in Vancouver.
Nice to have a theatre with reserved seats, power recliners and no pre-movie advertisements. My one complaint is having to climb to the next floor to use the washroom.
Absolutely love the theatre. So comfy the seats are amazing!!!!
Great seats, local guy. Cheap tuesdays. Can be busy so book ahead.
Nice reclining seats and popcorn is better than other theaters
Arrived to the theater to find other people in our seats. They confirmed they showed up to the wrong day with the manager but she wouldn't do anything about it. No credit no refund. Really bad service. Reading through the reviews seems we aren't the only ones to have a bad experience with this specific manager. Nice.
Those seats were soooooo good and Tuesday was cheap night so like 16$ for two people to see a movie. Great experience
It my favourite theatre in town
Sound is too loud. Extremely comfortable seats.
The best theater in Victoria drive from Langford to go there
Always love this theatre. Exactly how a movie theatre should be, pre-mega theatres. Large comfy reclining seats. Lots of space for everyone during the pandemic. Cleaner than any theatre I've seen in a long time.
Love it . The price is the best . And it's super comfortable
Seats are comfortable but I did not enjoy paying for myself and 6 family members to watch a movie in a theatre that has a mouse problem! Yes over $90 for our movie tickets and then over $50 for all us to have snacks. The manager admitted there is a mouse problem but they are trying to get rid of them. Yuck. Sorry, the comfy seats don’t make us fro this infestation! I WOULD LOVE TO EMAIL THE EMAIL ADDRESS YOU PROVIDED BUT THE EMAIL ADDRESS YOU INVITED ME TO REPLY TO IS NOT A VALID ADDRESS. AS OF LAST NIGHT THERE WERE MICE WHO WERE ACTIVE IN THEATRE #2
Nice reclining seats. Great movie afternoon with friends.
Love the seating and your easy to use reservation system
Amazing recliners!! So worth the hour drive from Duncan!
The only part that sucks is no pop or popcorn refills right now during covid.
I was happy with the friendly staff, the cleanliness, and the food selection.
Their internet was down, and we ended up waiting in line for a while until the staff figured out how to sell tickets manually (even though they mentioned this happened fairly regularly). When we finally got to our theatre the movie had already started and was playing with a very loud audio description soundtrack on. One of the theatre staff finally came in (after my sister left the theatre to ask about this), and told us they were trying to fix the problem. After another ~10 minutes nothing had been fixed, and so we decided to leave. When we asked for our money back, the staff member was very abrupt and said, "What's the problem?". She never once apologized and seemed to find us an inconvenience. Disappointing.
Best consistent theatre in town! Lot's of space. Very comfy recliners for each seat. Unlike other theatres, the seats have two adjustment settings instead of one. The food is expensive but getting a large soda gives you refills. Walking up the rounded ramp to get to the theatre is very cool. Would recommend, especially for late night scary movies.
Excellent little movie theatre. Great customer service and reasonable prices. The chairs were very comfy - better than any other theatre I've been to.
Best movie seating I've ever had! Ultimate comfort!
Great popcorn, friendly staff, comfy seats. Unfortunately no paper straws or recycling (like the other theatres in town). Will be taking the family elsewhere. Disappointing.
I have been coming to Capitol 6, only a block away from where i live for the last 3 1/2 years. I came to see the 7pm showing of "Little Women" on New Years Eve. 10-15 minutes into the Movie two rows diagonally ahead of me i see a bright light ! Yes, some inconsiderate, is Texting ! I firmly said TURN THAT OFF, and they did. Later when i got home i phoned to inquire if you had on screen announcements about turning off Cell phones that i missed. I was told by a nice Manager that you did not, but Staff do warn people to turn off phones which i have never seen or heard when i`ve been at a movie at the Capital. You are way behind your competitor across the street. They have at least 2 on screen announcements. If you can not do that, do it live! As a Victorian i really appreciate you keeping the Capital alive!
Was an excellent experience. The movie was wonderful and the comfort and layout of the seating was incredible. Have already recommended this theatre to friends who prefer to watch movies at home! A really nice movie experience. ☺☺☺
While the ticket and snack prices are expensive, slightly more than Cineplex, that's probably to make up for the very comfy reclining chairs that make up every seat in the theater! Cons: weirdly empty throughout the building, more expensive than the competition. Pros: Awesome seats, next to no wait time in line ups.

The reclining seats are the height of luxury. The snack bar has the best coke machine.
Really comfortable reclining seats and reasonable matinee pricing made our family's outing a great experience
This is my favourite movie theatre in the world
Imagine 2 teens costing $60 for popcorn and pop and a show?? The reclining seats are a plus though
This is a really great theatre! The seats are super comfy, adjustable, and really wide so you can spread out! Nice and clean too.
Great seating, wide isles. Decent screen size and good sound quality. Overall enjoyable experience!
Nice ,wide and cushy reclining seats make it easy to get comfortable to watch the movies. The sound is quite good but the screens are a bit small to get the full cinematic experience unless you sit close to the front but then you may risk getting a strained neck from looking up during the whole move. Otherwise highly recommended a good theater with some old world character rather than the cookie cutter multiplexes.
Tiny theatres with reclining chairs. Had to pre purchase seats, which we didn't know, and our family couldn't sit together.
I can't agree with other reviewers who think the reclining chairs are comfortable. On the contrary, they fold your body at the waist into a jackknife position that's really quite uncomfortable. The recliners are much better at the Cineplex Odeon across the street. To each his/her own, I guess. Runs smaller indie movies, sometimes for more weeks than at the Odeon.

It would be a bit better if the theatre floor was more on a slant so the great reclining chairs, when reclined, can see over the chair in front when it's not reclined. A Star is Born is not the best date movie. Too tragic.
Amazing and so affordable! The seats are incredible and I've only ever experienced similar in gold class cinemas in Australia (Comfortable large seats that recline)
Incredible seats and individually assigned too. Great experience!
Just saw Dunkirk in theatre 2 and the gunfire was so loud it actually hurt my ears but when the actors spoke you could hardly hear them. Screen doesn't do the 70mm film justice. Step up your game, comfy seats alone aren't going to get people off their couch and away from their streaming device.
Super comfy seats!!
Not bad. Decent seats. Decent price. Little high treble. Bass could've been better but clean.
Nice old (retro?) movie theater with recliner chairs. Snacks slightly more reasonable than other theatres...
Just have to LOVE the comfortable new recliner seating; so spacious!
I can not praise this place enough, one of the best movie screens you will see in Victoria
Really great seating, so comfortable and good visibility from anywhere
The recliners are great, make a movie much more fun. Although, the seats we had did have restricted views.
Most comfortable movie experience ever! Just make sure it's a good movie or you'll have the best nap of your life.
Screen #2 seems to have been upgraded with Dolby 7.1 sound! Seating is the best and has a premium feel! Nice interiors as well. Suggestion, if you bought the ticket online, we should be able to just walk in and show them, why print them out again at the kiosk? Overall, always an enjoyable experience!
On Tuesdays they have special pricing, so you can affordably watch a movie as long as you avoid the concession.
WHAT CAN YOU SAY . . FOR ME IT IS OK BUT JUST HATE THE DRIVE INTO TOWN . .
So flipping comfy! I really enjoyed the theatre. It was very personable and the seats are so comfortable. Only downside is I wish the screen was a bit bigger. Besides that, awesome experience!
Cheap Tuesdays are the best! Reclining seats are also a bonus. As a family we enjoy this theatre. It's also close to amenities
Friendly staff great popcorn
Damn them seats are nice
Assigned and reclining seats, have been back to Silvercity since Capitol's reno
Most of the movies they show are mainstream Hollywood vomit, but when they do have something worth seeing, it's a comfortable place. Much better than the Cineplex craphole around the block.
The reclining seats you can choose in advance (on site or online) were super comfortable and clean - no more lining up and rushing in to get the best seats still left. The screen was a good size and the sound system great. For the first time in like a decade + I am looking forward to going back to a movie theater! The concession seemed basic but adequate.
Plush recliner seats with lots of space. We bought our tickets in advanced, so we picked our seats at the time of purchased. The movie started on time, exactly at 3:50, only 1 trailer and no commercials. $10 move on a Saturday. Pretty cool.
Reclining chairs and refills on large popcorn. Yes. Please.
Awesome seats the screens could be bigger and they should serve beer
Nice staff, best seats!
Smallish theaters with excellent reclining seats. Concessions are limited but has refills on beverages.
Great cinema theatre! Old style, classy and amazing staff!
Best hot dog; great movie; awesome recliner and customer service...rks
Comfy seats and good value
Comfortable recliners! My kind of theater!!
Comfy seats, good move selection, great prices, and that fiddle leaf fig is an inspiration to indoor plants everywhere.
Wonderful movie theater and great seats that recline backwards and you can also raise your feet and legs for a most relaxing movie going experience here indeed!!
Seats are amazing . Screens are not that big but it's fine
Great prices, awesome seats. JUST AWESOME
The most comfortable movie viewing experience I have ever had!
Excellent seats, popcorn and drinks. My first choice to watch a movie in Victoria if they're playing a movie I want to watch. Very glad they're back open and successful.
Small theater rooms. Reclining spacious seats. A very nice viewing experience.
This movie theater has a great selection of movies and they have reclining chairs. Their staff are also very friendly.
Love the seats.. Tuesday is great deal day
What a great theatre. Smaller venue but simple movie experience with outstanding reclining chairs. Doesn't have the high pace like the oversized places and it makes your movie going experience that much better because of it.
Best theatre downtown. Huge comfy reclining leather chairs! Makes for a very comfortable movie. They also give free refills on large drinks which other theatres don't which is nice
