Noice
Went there about 8 years ago, a good place, just as Guzzo, there are older movies though.
I absolutely love it here, the owner is always there greeting you, for $2.50 a movie and food and drink all $1.00 it's awesome It's a fun time
My son’s movie camp hosted screening at this cinema, everything one dollar, could be a fun family time to watch some classic movies!
Always a good experience..can get busy so come a bit earlier to buy your tickets.
The cheapest movie tickets in town, but the selection is catered toward families and regular film viewers, e.g. big studio children's animations, action flicks, romcoms, and other mainstream films. Screening for contemporary art-house and foreign cinema is sparse, however. Of note, Christian Petzold's and Jia Zhangke's latest works made their way into the schedule in the last 4 months or so, plus a bunch of A24 releases. Older cult films have also, more recently, been included in the schedule (different film each week), which is a nice addition. Bernie, the owner, is great and the snack selection is nice and affordable.
Totally relaxed calm place. Very affordable (see photos). Well welcomed very down to earth atmosphere.
This is a great theatre. The owner, Bernie, is super sweet and personable. The other people that work there are always nice too. The theatres and chairs remind me of the theatres when I was a kid: comfortable but not overly fancy ( I'm going to see a movie, not sit in an overpriced throne!!! So it's perfect for me). All the prices are great, and it's nice that it's possible to take kids to the movies without breaking the bank. Pro tip: the samosas are dirt cheap and SO delicious Make sure you throw your change into the jar on the counter; they donate it to Hope and Cope which is an amazing cancer wellness centre.
cheaper movie tickets... modest place though...
I have been watching movie in this cinema for more than a decade, had lots of good memories there!!
You can't beat one buck for a movie, even if the seats r not the most comfortable in town, and the place is kinda funky, again, who cares, it's one dollar for a movie.
Cheap concessions and films, with a fortune cookie before the show. The owner is a hoot, too.
Great value for money
Everything you can expect from a dollar-cinema theater that offers movies at a rebate price with low-cost pop-corn and candies. The owner cares about customer's satisfaction. Great for a family escape that doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
UNBEATABLE PRICES. But dingy, and messy. For the price can't complain about picture quality or sound. It's alright. TIP: Don't sit in the back. You wanna be mid to close as once the movie is on you realize the screen isn't unbearably huge as it is in common cinemas.
Popcorn to be specific lol
This cinema is nice. I like the place and the neighborhood.
A little bit dirty but I appreciate free movies there and nice people work there.
Perfect on a budget.... if you don't have a netflix account and want to go out for fresh air lol....They have 1$ popcorn, yay!!
Kind boss, he run for mayor of Montreal in 2016. Talking to him was inspiring.
Firstly, retro effect felt as a kid when Appa used to take me movie theaters. Secondly, the staff are super super friendly and in fact there is this one guy. He gives you a free something to eat if it's your first time. Overall best 5 star cinemas of Montreal of you are a true cinema lover
Old built theater., not so well maintained ones. The sound is a better point in this theater..
It was great. The guy Bernie was a great person who welcomes you with all good vibes. 2:50 dollar movie with one dollar popcorn and snacks. Everyone should try that place with family and friends.
What's negative about a free movie if you belong to the Movie Meetup Group. Current titles. The snack counter is 'manned' by the most eccentric guy.
Second run movie theater with rock bottom prices. The place is in need of renovation, but you don't go there to be impressed by the decor, but by the price of the tickets.
Wow.. The prices are incredibly low.. Movie tickets for just 2.5. Coke, popcorn each for a dollar! Snacks like Samosa(2 pcs) just 1.5 dollars.
Get to see movies that were out in theatres about 6 months earlier and at 1/4 of the price of a regular cinema
Always enjoy myself and having family time together there. Reasonable price for movies you see in other big theaters.
Value, tradition, old friend
no need to pay lots of money to enjoy a big screen! not very convinient located for people with no car like me but I don't mind the 15 minutes walk from Namur Station
Apologies for error in rating earlier this dollar cinema is absolutely fantastic! Warm clean friendly and affordable. Love it ♡
love it!
May not be fancy like other cinemas and has a slightly older current movie selection, but large screens, never too crowded and of course great prices.
It was a rainy day and I had my little guy with me after his doctor's appointment. It was the perfect Mommy-Son date! Reasonably priced and not overwhelming. With the reasonable prices I don't think twice to purchase snacks here. I will be making this my regular movie stop as I rotate through my kids for their one-on-one movie-dates with Mommy! Oh! I almost forgot, CASH ONLY! (This keeps their costs down).
Great place!
Very inexpensive
Been going for years. Very loved. Bernie is great. Perfect for a date.
Amazingly low prices!
Came for the first time tonight for two movies and had a blast. The owner is indeed very welcoming and friendly. XL popcorn was delicious and affordable. Will definitely come again soon.
Got some decent theatre rooms to watch flicks for a dollar. Nice eh!
Recent movies at a price you can not beat. The drinks & popcorn start a $1.00 each.
Not a bad place at all. Nothing glamorous but still not bad.
Just gr8 for 5 bucks I got the royal treatment. Popcorn, drink, and a gr8 New movie.
Great price
???????????? Saw Captain Marvel at this movie theater. Snacks and ticket prices unbeatable!! Enjoyed the experience. Will return soon.. Bernie gives a fine customer service ????????
Price is Right!!!! Great service!
Buy from the counter the 20$+tax pack of 20 tickets, and compare with the admission price of your regular movie theater, especially when you have two kids. A 1$ or 2$ tasty popcorn and 1$ drink, how does this compare with Cineplex theaters prices? The two main rooms have comfortable seats and are of reasonable standard, same for the projections. And it's usually not packed with people. But anyway, for the price for a family of 4, this is at least 70% cheaper than your regular Guzzo or Cineplex theaters. Be aware that individual tickets at the counter are 2.50$, unless you buy the pack of 20. In response the the old negative review down bellow, the customers are just the regular people here, very respectful, and quite family oriented. I have never seen noisy or drinking people inside.
Let's be real here. It's a dollar cinema, don't expect a complete cinema experience. It's like going to dollarama and expecting to find the products of loblaw. Now that's out of the way, the cinema is really nice! Movies are usually priced around 2.5$, coke and popcorn at 1$. The seats are comfy and the sound is good. The screen is a little small but you forget it fastly as soon as the movie starts. All in all, a good experience to see movie with friends ????
Best place to go see cheap movies and sometimes they screen the best classics !
Cheap...dirty
Super owner!
We've been coming here for years. The staff is so nice and friendly. We have a large family so the prices are perfect for us. We highly recommend this cinema.
Great staff
Not the greatest Cinema but worth the dollar you spend for the Movie. Very friendly service.
????nice area and scenery
Super affordable place with nice staff!
love this theatre. every friday and saturday at 7pm there is a free movie playing. so i sometimes take advantage of those offers and go see the movie if it interests me.
The service was wonderful. The owners gave us free candy because they overheard us mention that it was our first time there. Unfortunately the movie watching experience left everything to be desired. We could hear the movie playing from a different room. The seating was an uncomfortable bench made with what I think were 2 X 4's and they made a lot of noise. The room design was not optimal for sound and even viewing because the screen was obstructed. Just torrent a movie you want to watch and view it at home.
This place is awesome! Cheap movies, cheap food located right beside the highway not sure what else we can ask for! I strongly recommend this place for date night
Nice place to watch a little bit old movies with family.
Great place for the price!
One of my favourite cinemas, always a good experience and the popcorn is great!
The most cheapest cinema hall in Montreal ... Only 1 Dollar .. Unm liked it.
Holy cow! This place is the embodiment of "you get what you pay for". Nasty, dirty, broken. I will not go again. 2 stars because I don't know what I was expecting.
We LOVED it! Never experienced that much kindness! We went to watch Joker in the Dollar Cinema but sadly we couldn’t pay with credit card and we didn‘t know that! Bernie let us in anyway and told us to pay next time. He deserves all the best! Please just go watch a movie there and see for yourself! Definitely would become regular guests if we weren‘t just visiting Montreal. Greetings from Germany!
Its decent .you get what you paid for.
For what it is, a very high score. Is it a multipex with all the bells and whistles? No.
Bernie’s the man. Watched a screening of The Room and it was great. They had exclusive Tommy Wiseau footage that I had never seen before and they were also very understanding of the hundreds of spoons scattered across the theater.
I love it! Old type movie theater. Awesome owners.
Really good place for enjoying not so new movies. Low price, nice owner, indoor underground parking
Star 1: free parking – even it’s outside but nothing beats free! Star 2: $1.5 for tickets or refreshments – are we talking about the prices of the 80s? No, they really only charge that much. Star 3: they also show some first-run movies even some Quebec exclusive titles, for example, The Interview (with James Franco). Star 4: the service is good. The owner doesn’t watch movies himself but he’s doing his best to make sure you’ll watch them comfortably. So this is a “Four-Star” cinema in my humble opinion.
This place is practically a charity. I have no idea how the prices can be so low. Be a kind person and leave them a little extra dollar or two if you can afford it.
Just like in the good old days. If you remember going to the movies in the 90s, before the impersonal multiplexes wiped out old movie theaters, then you'll feel right at home at Dollar Cinema. Located at the very end of what must be the most depressing mall in all of Montreal, it sure doesn't look like much (neither from the outside nor when you step inside) but the charm of old movie houses of yore is undeniable. The proprietor is as quirky as he is nice, you can get a bag of popcorn for a buck (and it's really good), and movies which would have cost you $13 to see a couple of months ago cost just $2.50. Buy a pack of 20 tickets for $20 + tax and you've got yourself a bunch of really cheap outings. Highly recommended.
Bernie the owner is a kind and enriching and funny man. The place is authentic
Nice place , nice sraff
Very affordable.
The best place to watch a movie and also the cheapest one, I love it.
It was a meetup so i didn't pay... thankfully the theater is huge with a huge screen but for some reason the projection is tiny so i had to sit very close, also was a plus since the speakers they are using are logitech pc 2.1 speaker XD .......oh yeah and the screen was very dark the first half of captain marvel was guess work on what was going on.... recommended if you are on a budget and live close by and you don't care much about the movie or wanna makeout I guess....pffff the second star is for the staff and the price which i bet is very budget friendly.
It's a great spot for a broke Friday. Grungy though.
(Translated) VERY GOOD ! 7 CAD $ for 2 places and a large Popcorn, it is given at this price! On the other hand for this price one should not expect great luxury, the room is not incredible. The choice of films remains interesting. (Original) TROP BIEN ! 7 CAD$ pour 2 places et un grand Popcorn, c'est donné à ce prix là ! Par contre pour ce prix il ne faut pas s'attendre à du grand luxe, la salle n'est pas incroyable. Le choix des films reste intéressant.
Awsome
Very friendly owner. You feel like a welcome guest in his house rather than cattle at a faceless theater chain. A real gem.
Incredibly low prices for movies and snacks.
It's really cheap compared to a traditional movie theater (hence the name), but obviously you have to be comfortable with subpar equipment and comfort.
2 dollars for a movie can't go wrong here.
Inexpensive place, great place to kill an afternoon with the kids. Very reasonable prices for the movies and the snacks. No gouging here.
Recent movies for small price..good if you are on a budget.
The price is right! Movie selection ok but could be better...
Thank you so much for caring about your comunity
I love this place. A buck each for popcorn soft drink and movie. They have the yummiest popcorn of any theater in Montreal. This weekend we went to see the remake of Papillon. Two thumbs up. Bernie for Mayor!
If you care about hygiene, you will avoid this place. - Greasy floors - Washrooms were filthy and had swarms of fruit flies To top it off the Movie started 20 minutes late
So my I went to Dollar Cinema for the first time last week and I loved the experience! It was packed, they were showing Pulp Fiction. It's a throwback to the old days, don't expect THX/Dolby sound or IMAX screen. But just a great experience.
Good cinema considering how much it costs to get in (think less than 30% of the price of a mainstream theatre like Cineplex). Also, good for groups if you get there early enough. The popcorn and food that they sell here is very inexpensive compared to mainstream cinemas. If you wanna catch a cheap movie that probably isn’t in theatres anymore, but also isn’t out yet online or on Blu-ray, this place is for you. Honestly really surprised at how cheap movies are here. Don’t come here on a first date unless you wanna come off as a cheapskate ????
Not the most comfortable cinema but it is free so I can very much live with that ! Free parking too !! Koodos to the Dollar Cinema and Meet Up for providing the service.
Great prices. Not the cleanest theater but it works ;)
Great service, fab choice of treats & comfy seats. Affordable & feels like home. ????
Can't beat a cheap movie!
Awesome place. I love the owner, he's super friendly. They have been renovating lately, and the place looks great.
Amazing value. Remember to take cash though.
Can’t beat the price! Jenny is always welcoming!
With 2 full-size rooms and screen that has nothing to envy to other theaters beside featuring older films, about the same they're released on DVD & Blu-ray, for a quarter of the price. There's a 3rd smaller size room called "The Living Room" which has over 25 places with a large screen (over 50") although the sound is understandably softer as half of the room is built with non-isolating material in one of the full-sized rooms (taking like 20 seats of it) ; the website and leaflet mentions some films to be there but some other are spitted between the 2 kind and you could have to be there at prime hours for films in their 2nd/3rd week but it's not a bad experience (just not the best). With 2$ ticket and 1$ items, such as popcorn, soft drink, juice, candy, dipped ice cream cone & snack (my favorite is bag of samosas, 2 in it ; pattie are popular as well) and a friendly staff, what more could you ask at that price ?! There's always people, even the first representation in weekdays, and during weekend prime-time, you see no difference from a regular theater if not from the older movies and much smaller price ! I wish enduring success to those that made and contribute to the Dollar Cinema.
Good movie options, it feels like you are in the 80's once you step in. Go early to get your popcorn and snacks as the lineup is so long and the cantine is very small. The cinema is very old and renovations are overdue, the seats are very dirty and busted. Washrooms are very unsanitary and should be cleaned, so be prepared.
Good flix. Great prices. Reminds me of the movie theaters I used to go to as a kid in the late 80s. Fun for the family at an unbeatable price.
I give it 5 stars not because this theater is particularly good-looking or anything, but it's such an experience, especially considering that the owner is hilarious. The dollar cinema is just one of those eccentric staples in the city. Bernie for mayor. Also, love that they're playing the Irishman before any other theater in the city (except cinema moderne - but they're totally booked up)
Awesome cinema. Nowhere else can you get a movie on a big screen for 2,50$ with 1$ snacks. The owner has been behind the counter for almost 15 years and is still so passionate about what he's doing and friendly. Go there, it's amazing!
OK, the price is ridiculous cheap, and the stuff is kind, but people that love the movies want a clean place to watch it, and a overal good expierence. Not here. The small room is a joke. The big theather (#2) had several problems with the audio (mono, not stereo, or simply missing), and sometimes the image didn't fit on the screen.
great for killing time and staff are a great bunch. often playing movies which are just a few weeks behind, but definitely worth it. condiments are fresh and cheap. visited more times than i can count, will continue to
I like this place. When you can get into the main theatre, the experience is fun. The value is unmatched (everything is only 1$) and the staff were very friendly. The only downside is the location is wacky, and the mall it's in is pretty depressing, but overall a great rainy day activity for the family.
Bang for the buck. You can spend a whole day watching movies for 10 dollars
The Staff is friendly, i really liked my first time there. I will go back for sure. I recommend ++++
Nice place to hang out.
You won't beat the price anywhere else. We're a family of five and we spent only 10$ for tickets, a big bag of popcorn and drinks! The screen and audio are great. The staffs are friendly.
A Montreal staple, the perfect date night at the perfect price.
I too have been coming here since he first open the place and I gotta say, a movie and a soda for less than 5$ can't be beat. It aint THX sound but the screen is the same and the movies are all first rate movies that just came out of regular movie circulation. I can't say enough good things about this place. Thank you for being here!
Awesome for the family
I hope this place never close. It may not have the newest movies or the best installations but they are super friendly and with prices so accesible that it makes a family movie night possible. Thanks!
Great price!
Always , loved to go there with family, even if it was very known movie. Nice time and a possibility to get a cheap snack or drink from the store there. Nice chatting with the owner.
It's cheap and good
Friendly place, 2,50 CA$ for a movie, 1CA$ per movie with the 20 movies card, and great popcorn and soda for just 1 dollar ! Unbeatable !
Great prices and selection, owner is really cool
Inexpensive cinema near the periphery of the Montreal orange metro line. Located in Décarie Boulevard inside a large mall like building and is surrounded by cafes and shops. The theater isn't the best, but tickets and snacks (popcorn, samosa, drinks etc) are super cheap! - Only $1 or $2. You can even catch some movies at only $2.5. If you don't mind traveling a bit (about 40 mins from downtown) are they're playing your film, it's a steal! Would highly recommend for students or travelers on a budget. If you prefer a more classical movie watching experience like in the multiplexes, you'd be better off in the downtown area.
How can you go wrong. Great place to watch a movie with a low budget. Popcorn for $2, candy for a $1 or $2, movie ticket for $2, how can you go wrong?
This movie theatre is Legendary. The guy who sells tickets is some kind of Elvis for Montreal.
Movie was played in a room with TV !!! And it's called cinema.
I like how it's one dollar but the maintenance isn't very good
The seating arrangements are well thought out. The cinema has recently been renovated. The proprietor is very hospitable. The snacks are tasty. Of course, the prices, both for snacks and for the movies are unbeatable. Great experience, all round. Mazel tov!
The best cinema we have ever been to, it felt like a family welcomed us into their home.
The rooms are small and the movies do not start to on time but actually ok for the price
Bernie knows how to do it!
It is what you pay for. Price is very cheap. The owner is a nice person. I wouldn’t say the whole cinema is clean or comfortable, but hey the tickets are only a few bucks so you can’t set your expectations that high
It's great for kids due to the cheap price and cheap popcorn and so on. I go there with 4 kids and it costs me less than $20 for the movie, popcorn and drinks, you can't beat that. Make sure your movie is not being shown in the small room though. That room is not convenient at all in my opinion. Make sure you try the kosher jumbo hotdogs at least once.
Good
Inexpensive place to see a movie
Great ambiance, all the quality of a movie theater without the uncomfortable feeling of having something shoved up the wrong end that you get at galaxy cinemas. Owner (bernie) is very funny i'll be voting for him.
Friendly and super cheap. Nice fun dates.
I have been going to this cinema since I was little and they still have the best service and prices. Nice!!!
The owners are so nice ,great place
Very inviting and friendly greeting always , yet descriptive & informative on selection of movies offered. Nostalgic feel meanwhile you can ask a question, and get an answer. Polite with genuine kindness. Been going there for 20 yrs. It's still there for a reason ;). Prices at any given day or time $2.50 Popcorn ???? $1 , $2.....loaded with butter at no extra cost ???? It DON'T GET BETTER THAN THAT ????
Hard to beat the price. And the owner Bernie is a character.
Bernie is a wonderful man and I have great memories of seeing many movies here when I was in Montreal.
Other cinemas should take example from this one. Despite costing so little money you don't get anything less in the experience of watching a movie here, or somewhere that costs 10x as much. The snacks are good, the popcorn is even better than the ridiculously overpriced ones you get anywhere else.
Good time
Cool older style cinema. Cheap. $2 admission, $10 for Netflix releases. $1 for popcorn and water bottle. Very obscure, out-of-the-way location with no signs either outside or inside mall. Asked strangers where movie theatre was and they didn't know, turned out to be just around corner. Google Maps location is off, submitted new coordinates.
Awesome place .
Bernie thanks for the cheap flicks!
Not like this place needs anymore reviews but do come support this wonderful place. The snacks are tiny by theater standards but at $1 a pop and popcorn, it's perfect for those who do not require large doses of sugar and salt. Great escape from the summer heat/humidity
Great owner, great prices! A lovely atmosphere where to suspend disbelief for an hour or two. :)
Cheap, cozy and comfortable
Very affordable place to see previously released movies.
This is a very interesting place to say the least. It's fun and cheap but yet not very nice or fancy. This place is old not very comfy seats and over all not very classy and definitely not a place you take someone on a first date, but yet, we all love this place, that's because the service is good the people are very nice and friendly, so it make your movie that much better.
Good and cheap.
Really afforable and underated cinema. You can practically binge 3 movies and it would still be worth it!!!
Mr Bernie is a nice guy. Movies and snacks are cheap. Movies are a little old. So it's a good chance to catch what you missed in regular Cinemas
Old style cinema, old good movies, cheap popcorn, all for less than 5$ a good not expensive go out with the kids
I cant complain. For the money, hands down dollar cinema is a great night out. Bernie keeps the place real nice. For a couple of buck it's definitely worth it. Great movies to boot.
Terrible. I used to go there with the kids for almost ten years. Last time, we were waiting for the movie I sitted on the massaging chair cause there was no where esle to sit. The lady told us that if we don't use the massage we should not sit.... So OK we'll not use it again cause we'll never ever return there !
All good
Had a random night out and enjoyed the movie here. Movie was also super cheap and the front desk guy was extremely kind
Good customer service. Owner is a grear person.
Great quality price, you can enjoy excellent movies with a snack under 5$
Its an alright cinema. They have all you need. 2 big screens and snacks. They also have a private room but i have never experienced that. The cashiers are friendly too.
Hey I dont give a darn if the floor kinda sticks. It's a buck, two if you want a pop. Cheapest outing ever!
Oh God.. it depends when you go there.. I mean.. it's cheap.. but you get what you pay for... some theater smell like "urines" .. no jokes.. sometimes.. people who go in there.. are total idiots....some people even "smoke" in there and there is no supervision. I wouldn't recommend to go there unless you don't mind those attributs above. Cheers.
Simple place, good to relax and watch a good movie for not mutch!
Great experience. Old with character. Cheap and fun. All movies in English.
Most wholesome movie experience you'll get in the city. The owner and the little lady working there are absolutely adorable and are amazing humans. Nothing fancy about it but I love the atmosphere. Go check it out!
Super cheap. Don't expect comfortable seats or good sound.
The loveliest lady behind the counter. Thank you! We will be back very soon ????
Clean neat . Good hosts
So much fun!!! My grown up kids just loved it too. What a terrific experience and so affordable, I'm going back every week to watch a different movie.I really loved it. Thank you Bernie. You're a funny man doing a great thing!
Realy we watched movie with snacks in 8 dolls only .place is not that maintain but in this price it's fine.
I went with my friend once, there was kids birthday party going in the same place the movie we wanted to go see. The man called us over ( the Owner) and apologized. He left us go in another threater and watch another movie while we wait. He also gave us a free popcorn! THE THREATER WAS HUGEEEE!! I was so amazed!!! Honestly such amazing people!
Great value, but be wary of going in for classics; you might be put in Room 3: a converted, cramped storage space with a TV.
friendly staff, cheap snacks, always feels like a private screening as it's never crowded classic movie theater atmosphere
The best! I love this place. I was fortunate enough to live in Montreal for a year and frequently visited the dollar cinema. It's just honest and great value with super nice staff. More companies should adopt this way of doing business, it's really relaxed. It just feels like a community run operation as everything should be. Amazing.
Not bad
This place is an historical landmark of Montreal
Friendly, helpful staff, and absurd (in this age of movie going) prices. Great place to bring your little kids for their first big screen experience if you aren't sure they can sit through a whole film; you don't feel burned if you have to walk out.
Great flicks at amazing prices
How can I put that... Well, good two person staff. The rest is what it is..
Decent place for the prices of tickets
Good service Big screen Good prices
Great choice to see movies on the big screen without the big prices! Fully wheelchair accessible
Great popcorn
I paid 4.50$ for my ticket, popcorn and drink. Not crowded which i enjoy. Convenient location to me and owner is super friendly. Highly recommend
Not bad. It's a small theater managed by only one server, the owner. The rooms are small, like a living room with a proyector and home theater; however, you get the same magic vibe as in a big theater although cozier and warmer. There is a screen and real movie theater seats. Ideal for those who are behind movies-release dates and who refuse to stay home netflixing. If you expect a five stars service you'll be disappointed. And it's cheap!
Five stars for the price, the friendliness of the owners, and the fact that this place exists! Even the trek there is an experience - from Namur metro, you walk along the Decarie, then through a bizarre mall, and just when you're not sure you're going the right way, an escalator at the back of the mall takes you up to the theatre. The owner asked my girlfriend and I if it was our first time at the theatre - it was hers - so he gave her a "first-time cadeau" in the form of the candy of her choice. Sweet guy! That meant we got two tickets, a drink, a popcorn, and a candy all for $10. My only qualm is the "small room" theatre -- compared to the other two full-sized theatres, the small space feels like a weird closet, and the sound/video quality were not great and easily overpowered by the booming sound from the neighboring theatres. So, those factors were quite distracting. Alas, it is hard to complain for the price! My thanks to the owners for keeping the cinematic experience accessible and fun.
Tuesday's are free everything is 1$ except the movie but who cares. Benny is so cool!
Don't let the name deter you, this place is well run and shows legit films that are in theatres! You can come watch whatever is playing everywhere else without breaking the bank. They also have the usual snack bar with theatre fair. Aside from being a bit messy during busy times (but not more than the average theatre), there is really nothing to complain about here.
Such a lovely and kitsch experience for so ridiculously cheap! We had a great time and the popcorn is some of the best I’ve had!! The owner really took the time to chat to us and made the experience that much better. Highly recommend as you can see a film and snacks for less than $5!!
Bernie is the man. Where else can you get snacks and a movie for 5 bucks?
1$ cinema! You can’t really go wrong there! It gives an old timer cinema feel, everything’s old in there but still comfy. Best thing about it is the food, name another cinema that sells samosas! Cute way to spend a rainy afternoon!
Perfect place to find excellent movies for incredibly reasonable prices, fantastic popcorn
Good selection of movies
An old style place to enjoy a movie at a cheap price. There's not available the newest movies, but you can refresh your youth days
Exactly what you'd expect when paying 1 dollar to go to a discount theatre.
What a great theatre for the price! We saw Wonderland there with my boys! Movie, snacks, and drinks for all of us without breaking the bank! We will definitely comeback soon! Thank you!
Very nice staff and owner, sometimes the floors are a little sticky and it seems dark and gloomy but its perfect for a 1$ cinema experience.
The Dollar Cinema is a historical establishment located inside the Decarie Square shopping mall. Conveniently located on the Decarie Boulevard, it located on the outskirts of Côte Saint-Luc. It’s walking distance from Namur metro station. It’s wheel chair accessible from It’s multiple entrances. Movie tickets are 2.50$ and food and drinks start at 1$. They recently installed a stage for live performances. Highly recommend for an inexpensive night out for the family.
Just a great place to relax and enjoy watching a film. Amazing value and really friendly staff.
Nice little place!! If you enjoy movies at a fraction of the cost, this is your place!
Best cinema in Montreal.
Due to Covid 19 is close
So far I've seen 2 great films there for free -- films that were original and not in mainstream theaters.
????????
Personally love this place. Glad it’s here. PROs: - really easy access - parking available - CHEAP - great sized room, not too big, not too small CONs: - floors a little sticky - upholstery a little dated But hey, SUPER cheap AND convenient. The owner is really nice too. Sure this place could really pick up with a good scrub and better lighting. I’ll keep supporting.
The owner was a real good man. I drove 5h30 from NB to watch The Irishman. And the man couldnt believe it ???? So he was telling everyone!! And the theater is like an old one from 20th Century. So a perfect ambiance for this Scorsese / DeNiro/ Pacino reunion movie. I recommend this vintage cinema theater
I love this place. The owner, I love him. He is so kind and friendly. I go there every week. All the things are just 1$.
Great place
Old school, seats are torn,washrooms not to 3 clean,however movies an food are cheap!
(Translated) The cinema should change its name to 'BS cinema' ... The performance (which we have the nerve to charge us at $ 10 !!) which starts 15 minutes late, the seats in poor condition, the sticky floor, the toilets that reek of urine, the projection that does not fully cover the screen. The star is for the soft drink, cheaper than that sold by cineplex ($ 3 for the large format). (Original) Le cinéma devrait changer son nom pour 'BS cinéma'... La représentation (qu'on a le culot de nous charger à 10$!!) qui commence 15 minutes en retard, les sièges en piteux état, le plancher collant, les toilettes qui empestent l'urine, la projection qui ne couvre pas entièrement l'écran. L'étoile est pour la boisson gazeuse, moins chère que celle vendue par cineplex (3$ pour le grand format).
Great stuff, big screen, reasonable price.
Always a fun experience. Staff is super friendly. And you can't beat the price.
This has to be the best movie theatre in Montreal. The service is impeccable, the ambiance and the prices are out of this world ! Thank you for keeping this place open.
Super cool!
Best dear for family with kids to go watch a movie.
My favorite cinema. Amazing movies and even better prices.
thank you bernie
Great cinema for a great price !!
I have been going to this theater for over a decade. Bernie is always improving the venue. Great value.
Excellent for price
Price is good $2.50 for a movie. But screen is a bit off and sound is just ok. The theater is so dirty, but for $2.50 I guess it should be expected!
Great deal on new movies and snacks here but needs a huge facelift to this old place! Like cinema seats and bathroom! Please!
You can get 20 tickets for 20 dollars. These tickets never expire and you can use. As many as you want for a single movie. Or you can pay 2.50 for a single ticket. The quality is not superb but is very good for 1 dollar. And if doesn't take long for a movie to get out of the other cinemas and get to dollar cinema.
I have a review earlier praising the place, but this evening was the worst theatre experience of my life. I went in to see a movie and was placed in their small room that had NO surround sound even though it was stated on the walls, but the absolute worse part about my experience was they had a cultural music event playing next door to our room and did not tell anyone who paid for a ticket to see the movie. The entire movie was interrupted by BLARING music and bass from the event next door. I was for certain we would get our money back and or a ticket to a different show!!? The owner knew about this event and yet did not apologize and or offer another ticket for another show! I thought he was supposed to be a nice and reasonable person? Instead he just joked about it because “that’s what he does”... well, it was extremely insulting and insensitive. I left feeling cheated and with a headache. Not fun for a single mom trying to get out for a movie. :( PLEASE tell your customers about a event playing at the same time BEFORE they buy a ticket and wait to see a movie! Common courtesy!!!!!
Dollar cinema is best location good nice place very good staffs. cheap popcorn and Pepsi
Owner is awesome, rooms are cozy and seriously for the money, you get a lot. It's awesome. I STRONGLY recommend you visit this place. It's worth your time, and definitely worth your money! :D
Very friendly owner, for the price, we can't complain. If you expect to have a top notch theatre, you're in the wrong place. They show older movies for a double feature at $2.50. Popcorn is $2.00 for a large. Affordable prices.
Super place and staff is very funny and friendly.
cheap and the owner is fun. i can see how they keep it so cheap tho. don’t go in expecting soap in the washrooms.
Cool
Cozy
Super cheap ! 2.50$ admission and 1$ snacks. Low-key location and there is a good selection of movies. Definitely recommend ! The owner is super friendly as well!
Really cheap cinema and pop corns
We love this little theater. Yes it is an older theatre, but for a dollar this is the best value in town. And the staff are great.
Last time I came here was 10 years ago and it was a great experience!
I used to give this place a 4 stars, because you got a good movie, popcorn, and a drink four for under five bucks. However, that's only if you go in theater one or two. They've recently added a third room. This third room, which they call a VIP room. Is nothing more than a home projector with a 60 or 70 inch screen. The projector actually isn't centered on the screen and some of the film is shown on the wall. The sitting in this room is a mishmash of random theater seats, and stools. The room only holds 20 or so people. I'm pretty sure it's an old broom closet. We were showing a movie in there this evening. As promised, Alice Through the Looking Glass was displayed in theater number 3. What I didn't sign up for, was the fact that it was a pirated version of the movie, complete with Asian subtitles on the bottom of the screen. It was obviously taken via camcorder from an Asian theater. Presumably, they do have a right to show second-run movies. But because this is a makeshift third Theatre, they don't have an official projector in there. To get around this, they download a pirated version of the movie and show that version in there. The video quality is God awful, the seating is God awful, the room is God awful, the sound is God awful. I feel this Theatre gets a four to five star rating based on the value alone, only if you get in theatre one or two. But the addition of this third room, and the expectation that it's just as good to pay any amount of money to be seated in the storage closet, and be showing a pirated copy of a movie, is nearly enough to bring this whole experience to a single star rating. I hope they don't get closed down for showing pirated movies, because the value of good if they can just show movies in theater 1 & 2 and close down this farce of a third Theatre.
A must go
Well, what can be said? It's a blockbuster movie... for a $1! As if that wasn't enough the snacks are almost free (compared to the other cinemas), and the service couldn't be any friendlier. The owner is very humble and personable.
Super inexpensive. Funny owner. Sometimes sketchy clientele.
Such great staff and service despite the cheaper seats.
This place is hands down the best cinema in Montréal. The owners are very nice too, and we can feel that they trully love cinema. If you're a real cinema-lover like I am, you need to go.
For the clean part I give a 3☆, but the rest is pretty good. I will go again
Dont expect much & you will be transported into Older times where Movies and simplicity collide.. Make sure to chat with Bernie on your way out, the excentric yet friendly owner!!
Cheap and very enjoyable!
Good for the $!the owners is usually on site and is super nice!
(Translated) The man at the counter is super friendly. $ 2.50 per appetizer, $ 1-2-3 for drinks, popcorn and treats, depending on the size. Really cheap. The sound of films is not very loud, less loud than in "regular" cinema. 2 rooms. (Original) La monsieur au comptoir est super sympathique. 2,50$ par entrée, 1-2-3$ pour les boissons, popcorn et friandises, dépendant du format. Vraiment pas cher. Le son des films n'est pas très fort, moins fort qu'au cinéma "régulier". 2 salles.
Price is good, but not clean
Rundown and dirty. The Two Pope's film did not fit on the screen, subtitles at bottom were cut out. Washed out image on screen.
Y'all the movies are $2.50. I mean really. Even though the theatre is pitch black before the movie starts and you can't see without your phone flashlight, who cares?? It's a $5 date! The owner is so chill and friendly. A small popcorn is $1 and a big (enough for two people) is $2. Can't beat it.
Best prices anywhere. Everyone becomes a friend of the Dollar Cinema when they meet Bernie! Seriously, if you're the kind of person who doesn't mind waiting a bit before seeing a movie, this is the perfect place. Where else can you have a date night watching a good movie with 2 big popcorn, sodas and a bunch of candies for under 20 bucks? Nowhere but the Dollar Cinema!
The best theater for low cost
Support the amazing efforts of the owners of this Cinema. They are attempting to do what no one else in Montreal does - allow movie goers to go to the movies, at an affordable price. Even the popcorn and soda is the price your parents paid in the 80s! And there is free parking and an elevator. Fabulous! Thank you!
Owner is very friendly and everything is $1. Love spending some days there
I really enjoyed the movie and the views it's a nice place
It's nice to have a cinema that's affordable for the whole family. Yes the floors may be a bit sticky and the movies slightly older but for the price and the service I give this place 6 stars.
This cinema is so incredible! My partner and I went for the first time tonight and had an amazing time. Incredible snacks (the popcorn is to die for!) and very very cute feel. The owner is so lovely and so passionate about his customers. Definitely recommend! ❣️
Great value
I have been going to this cinema for years. I absolutely adore its retro feel. The screens are old-fashioned huge, and there is no one hour pre-movie horror show of advertising. Don't take any Czechs there! They have a refined sense of clean and the sticky floors, stained carpets, and iffy washrooms really freak them out. But the rest of us humans just love the place!
Classic older cinema from the 1980's. Two large theaters, 1 small VIP room. Shows films fresh off the multi-plexis. $1 soda, pop corn, candy. Still in good shape, free indoor parking, very welcoming family staff.
The staff is really friendly and accommodating. You get the movie experience for a fraction of the price. Plan extra time for parking.
It's not the newest cinema but you cannot beat these prices and it's got the feel of the kind of cinema I used to go to growing up. The owner is so nice! I didn't get to talk to him much but he gave the people in front of me a small free bag of popcorn since it was their first time visit . The movie selection is pretty good for a cinema with only two screens! Would definitely recommend if you like movies but not the big movie theatre prices.
Awesome old style movie theater.
Great price. Bernie the owner is amazing!
Excellent low budget initiative.
Two rooms are pretty big and one pretty small. The owner was pretty cool though.
This place is amazing!!! Such a beautiful relaxed place, amazing prices, fantastic film selection and the owners are really really lovely. Will definitely be back for more!
the best cinema
The man who owns it is very friendly and it's a great place to go if you've missed a movie in theaters or to wait to see a movie in a place that doesn't gouge you for concessions.
Great oroc and good theatre. A pleasure to go there.
Nice & calm place. Quality will improve if no butter popcorn option.
Prices are incredibly low and the shop keeper is very nice, have a chat if you have the time ???? everything is old, but it's worth it and clean
Great for Netflix exclusive
Whenever my kids say they're bored we head over to dollar cinema. Bernie and his staff are always very friendly and the prices can't be beat! We always feel welcome there.
Love the place, fun for the kids, the owner is very kind. A perfect, affordable and fun plan for the family.
One of the best place to watch movie for cheaper price and owners are wonderful people ♥️
Cheap family place!
(Translated) Unbeatable for the price! The owner is so nice. The quality of the picture and sound is pretty good. Let's keep in mind that we pay $ 2.50! And about $ 1 with their promo 20 tickets for $ 23! All the movies are there, with a little delay. Great place! (Original) Imbattable pour le prix! Le propriétaire est si gentil. La qualité de l'image et du son est assez bonne. Gardons en tête qu'on paye 2,50$! Et environ 1$ avec leur promo 20 billets pour 23$! Tous les films y passent, avec un peu de délai. Super endroit!
Awesome place. I have never seen any place like this.
It's had it's days.
Lots of choices here
Nice inexpensive way to spend an evening.
The guy in front just gave us a bunch of candy for free even though we didnt have enough money for all of it. This place is great
Cheap prices compared to other theaters. Snacks are few buck. A good cheap night out. The 3rd "closet" theater was horrible, but its shutdown now.
Its worth the price, though u have to wait for the movies...... A bit dirty though
Very average place
With every year it gets worse and worse. I remember loving going there and spending the whole day back then. These days movies quality is very poor. It seems that sometimes they are using very early camera rips instead of DVD rips or actual DVDs. The picture is extremely dark, cut off at the top and bottom or the sides. If there's text in the film it will be translated to subtitles in CHINESE. And the audio isn't dolby I'm certain. I blame the owners for inability to manage and quality control it. They need to hire someone young to help them with the movies and handling the lines as they can be pretty slow at it. Otherwise I think dollar cinema will go down as it will bleed their customers because of all of that.
it's old but cheap and kind
The actual place is a bit old, but the host is so warm and friendly. Goes out of his way to greet guests and make them feel welcomed. They show old movies for a low price. Definitely a place I will go often with the family.
Amazing place, the owner's great. Went there with my family from the US and we had a blast. Great prices, great atmosphere.
Cheap and i am happy
This is the only cinema I go to any more. Why pay full price when I can wait for it to play at the Dollar Cinema?
A movie experience unlike any other in the montreal area. You can actually see a movie, eat popcorn, drink a pepsi and NOT be broke!
This place rules. It's fun and the owner is hilarious. It's affordable, has awesome pop corn and is a great alternative to over priced cinemas. You have to give up a little to get a lot!
Best experience under 5 dollars (I usually buy snacks along with my movie). Snacks are basic but if you are okay with that, can't go wrong here especially for the price! Hope they continue to stay open for a very long time. Movie ambiance at a very affordable price. Staff are polite and nice to talk to.
Who said you can't watch a movie for less than 5$? Local hidden gem in Montreal.
Surley it is not the best cinema ever. But still, this cinema offers you the opportunity of watching a movie for only a dollar. The prize of popcorn and other stuff is great. If you missed a movie on theaters, then dollar cinema is your number one option. You can even buy the movies' posters.
The guy who owns the place is worth the price of admission alone (which isn't much btw) ???? he's hilarious. Also super cheap snacks!
Nice little place to watch a movie you may have missed in the theatre. The price and snacks are really cheap (2.50 for a movie ticket and 1 for snacks?). There's a nice sense of peace when entering the place, feels very comfortable. The theatre itself is not very clean, but that's kind of expected. The quality of the screening is just fine!
Great movies,good prices
MOVIES ARE IN ENGLISH, NOT DUBBED FRENCH! GOOGLE IS WRONG! LOVE THIS PLACE, DON'T BE DETERRED
Awesome service a nice friendly please
bernie the best owner he soo nice the bathrooms are ok popcorn amazing service amazing movie amazing
Great place for a good movie at cheap price ...popcorn and drink too ????????????????
Great atmosphere cheap movies and popcorn
Inexpensive place to watch 2 or 3 months old movies. Kids love the 1 dollar pop corn and chocolates!
The movie "Equalizer 2" with Danzel Washington, was superb.
Very good place to see blockbusters and other rare movies in English, at a cheap price. The owner has a great sense of humor
Love it
Good price for when you just wanna relax with an old movie in a theater ambiance
I have been coming here for years!!! Great affordably entertainment value...
So we all agree that if you are paying $2.88 to see a movie, and $1 popcorn and $1 soda, you will get what you pay for. An inexpensive outing at the movie theatre. The place is run down, and it not cleaned very often. There are only 2 staff members working there any any given time. That is how Bernie can offer these ridiculously low prices!! Come on, if you want 5 star hotel, you pay the price right? Same thing for the movies. If you want ultra clean, surround sound, comfy ....then be ready to dish out for it! Cineplex cost me $28.00 for 1 adult and 2 kids, not counting the $8 popcorn...I was fortunate enough to have snuck in water bottles into Cineplex. At dollar Cinema, not necessary to try to sneak anything in. I appreciate the experience - my and my two kids can watch a movie, eat candy, popcorn and soda for under $15. Way to go!!
Has many first run movies at very cheap prices. Popcorn and drinks also inexpensive. Friendly staff. Problem sometimes with the quality of the movies. Sound can be bad, sometimes there's subtitles on English films. Poor quality DVDs occasionally. The small theater is not very good. Avoid that screen room. Overall, worth it if you pay $1.
Pros: Price, Movies, Food Cons: Dirty theatre Popcorn everywhere, Use your SmartPhone and Light up the Floor, you'll see what im talking about :)
Very good for the price
2 DOLLARS for movies, popcorn , water 1 dollars, great
Good threater but you can bring all English movies in one place
I have been watching movie with my sons. The price was very reasonable and the staff was very friendly.
As a huge fan of movie theatres this one is amazing. Great service, and reasonably priced, I can afford to take all my grandkids. I will certainly be back.
(Translated) Owner very friendly. Unbeatable prices! The popcorn is good! Just 2 room. It's not young. (Original) Propriétaire très sympathique. Prix imbattables! Le popcorn est bon! Juste 2 salle. C est pas jeune.
Theatre is old, opened at least 35 years. The seats are in bad need of repair. Theatre does not seem clean. Washrooms are questionable.
My husband and I took our 3 year old to her first movie here a month ago. We wanted to try a place that was insanely cheap in case she didn't have the patience to sit through a whole movie. Not only were we surprised that she sat through the WHOLE movie, we were amazing by Dollar Cinema. Of course it's not a new place but the snacks are yummy, the sound is great and the service is amazing. We've gone back another 2 times since then. Another great feature right now on the website is 20 admissions for 20 bucks. My little family is only spending 8 bucks (3 admissions and lots of snacks) for a movie. ANYWHERE else, that would be a 50.00 outing. We love Dollar cinema. Great place for kids and the staff is lovely. We'll be back again in 2 weeks :)
Good choice for the price it's very cheap and good idea if your going in groups so you will not pay much The only thing is that you might notice little less quality in terms of sound & picture for me it did not bother me much I was there in the morning so it was not full & there is no annoying adds and movie previews that you see in most other cinemas
5 star for the price. Cash only. Free parking. Limited choice of snacks. Only 2 theaters and they show outdated movies.
Great experience & unbeatable prices The owner is so nice and charming free surprise gift on my first visit ???????? Thank you man, really appreciated Will come back again promise!
It'a not expensive at all. You get a good service for the price you are paying. It's really comfortable and the people at the counter are so nice !!! :) Ohh and yeah without forgetting the popcorns ????, it's worth a 2 bucks ;) All their snacks range from 1$ to 2$ only.
Bad screen and sound quality
Staff kind attentive, always interesting, movies and snacks unbelievably cheap, good choice of movies. What more can you ask for ?
Great job offering movies in a very cheap price. Rooms are amazing with excellent sound.
It's not very clean or fancy, but it's great considering the price. It's usually almost empty and quite, the owner's really nice, they offer cheap snacks,drinks and pop-corn, and they have good promos like 20 tickets for $20. The movies are usually in their original language (usually English, otherwise English-subbed).
Good because is cheap
Have been going there for years.great choice of movies, inexpensive condiments, Bernie the owner is one of the nicest guys u will meet.
Value is amazing, it is as they claim.
Amazing Place with an awesome atmosphere. The owner is a great guy and very friendly. If you want to see a movie but it's out of other theatres check this place may have it. It very cozy and relaxing ambience. If you have small kids theatre 3 tends to show kid films and the is plenty of room on the floor on the front of the screen for them to play( that Is just a big old projector plasma ) but still for a day out its great. I been coming here since a kid and will continue for many years to come!.
Great selection of movies & super owner!
Tickets are $2.50. Popcorn, drinks and candy are $1 each. You can buy twenty passes that can be used at any time for $20. You get a free gift of candy on your first visit from the charming owner. This place sounds made-up it's so good. GO. And tell your friends.
Probably the most accessible cinema for students and others who don't mind waiting a little time after the world premiere to see a movie. As far as I know, they also have free screenings from time to time
Affordable entertainment, new movies
Cheap and cheerful! Very nice staff!
A quintessential dollar cinema experience. Friendly owners, great prices!
The movie was for free and a popcorn cup for one dollar. Recommende it will come back for sure.
Big bag of popcorn for $2.
Strange place. Very dirty. $10.00 to see "The Irishman." Won't be going back there.
There are plenty of movies to choose from and it's super cheap and convenient. My nieces and I love coming to this cinema ❤️
It is so cool that this kind of place still exists. So cheap you could go every night. It is a cinema like they use to be when I was a kid. We will definitely go back and get the 23$ deal for 20 movies!
I love this place. Have been going there for a good 5 - 6 years now. Very cheap 20 passes for 20$ with no expiry date. Everything is 1$ max 3$ for big drinks and popcorn. Makes going to the movies accessible to everyone. I go with my husband almost every week and it costs no more than 10$ every time we go. The owner is a very nice man with a very good sense of humour. Maybe not as comfortable as the fancy movies we have nowadays but for me, it's going back to my childhood and I love it. For that price it's unbeatable.
A truly wonderful theatre run by the kindest people
Love the popcorn there! Will even go there just to get the popcorn!
Formidable
loved the old school feeling and superb staff. much love from sweden!
The staff was really friendly, it was like a cool independent cinema.
It is a great time each and every time I go and see a movie at Dollar Cinema. How can you beat an eclectic assortment of film and all for free?
This is one of Montréal's staples. This place has been running for quite some time. Of course in this time the rate have increase from the original model of a buck a flick to now 2.50$ if I recall correctly. This is still nothing compared to going to a more expensive cinema theatre. If you have a birthday party, a group from an organisation, couples, families, heck... Come by yourself spend the day and watch asany movies as you want and I'm sure you will still. Have change on your 20$ bill. The owner is a genuinely altruistic person. He created this concept to give to the people a place of gathering and a place which can serve as an outlet for expression. The owner also let various groups and organisations reserve showing rooms in order to organise their own particular gatherings, from time to time. Come here and enjoy your movies a bit later than when they come out, it may feel Wierd not seeing it at cineplex or guzzo but it is worth it. You are giving to a good cause and supporting a business which has given Montréalers a great way to wind down, relax and enjoy a good movie for not too much money.
Great value.
Too many kids movies, Bernie , the Van Horne cinema closed a long time ago.....pls show more films for the grownups , and less for the Sesame st. Crowd .......salut
$2.50 tickets, $1 popcorn and soda. Doesn't smell. What more do you want.
If you miss a movie showing at the big cinemas, and wanna watch it on the big screen. Then this place is for you. Not the best cinema around but it's still a nice place and its really cheap, popcorn, ticket etc all cheap and the guy or lady who is at the counter they are both really nice people.
Management does a good job.
Bernie the man at the counter is a true gentleman, funny witty and friendly, very affordable if you can live without having the absolute latest movies.
Friendly staff, great movies, great prices
Great place for the price. All movies are in english. If the info on google says the movie is dubbed in french, it's not!!.
Good price.
They amazing, really friendly place.
All my gratitude to the people behind this place. It gives families the opportunity of enjoying a day out to the movies at a low price. Love the kindness of the people behind the counter! Thank you!
The movie stacked before the end......
Amazing and colourful owner. I wish more places like this existed. Admission so cheap and food for 1$!
Not a great place, but hey, the movies & snacks are CHEAP, $2.50 for movie, $1.00 for snacks, unless it's samosas, which cost a bit more. Great way to catch a film you missed when it was first run.
This is the place. Enough said.
One of my favourite places to go. Nice to know there is one place that doesn't try and get as much out of you as they can. Cheap prices for movie and snacks and recently run films. Simply cannot be beat. Seeing Bernie is alone worth the trip there.
I just love this place!
Can't beat the price and they show not to old movies and when they do show, they show classics -fight club-. :)
Best value for the dollars when it comes to movie in Montreal. Bernie and all people working there are AWESOME people. Thank you all.
Amazing place for a cheap family night.
Excellent cinema for the family. Well worth it . Very friendly personnel.
Inexpensive movies and food. Theater has a musty smell and the lobby gets loud with patrons waiting for the next movie to start. Don't go there expecting much and you won't be disappointed.
Super value. Good theatre considering the price.
Can't beat the prices. It's an old theater. You don't have those plush seats, but so what. Even the prices for popcorn and drinks are great.
Unbeatable deal, two out of the 3 rooms are good, the other one is a bit special
Dirty
(Translated) I love going there with my children or my friends, the atmosphere and the philosophy of the project touch me a lot. Thank you Bernie and the whole team! (Original) J'adore y aller avec mes enfants ou mes amis, l'ambiance et la philosophie du projet me touchent beaucoup. Merci Bernie et toute l'équipe !
(Translated) Cheap. Amusing. I felt like I was going back 40 years. Popcorn disgusting, wet and old taste. Bottled water is good. ???????? (Original) Pas cher. Amusant. J'avais l'impression de retourner 40 ans en arrière. Pop-corn dégeulasse, goûte humide et vieux. L'eau en bouteille est bonne. ????????
Its a dollar cinema, not for a dollar though, but cheap movies , ok seats , loud sound. Take ear plugs if you are sensitive. Can't complain for the money you pay to watch a movie. Recommended if you are not a movie connaisseur. Mr Bernie is nice ????
(Translated) Best cinema! (Original) Meilleur cinéma!
Right price!
Pretty amazing value! I just watched Zootopia with my family and it was all under 10 bucks with a small popcorn. There are only two rooms and the one we got (room 2) is actually much larger than I imagined. There's also a ramp for the disabled and for strollers. We'll definitely come back here.
It's awesome for kids. The price is very good and the snacks a re cheap. It's a cheaper alternative to higher end theaters. I've been going for about 12 years.
Great place to go for a movie with the family. Cheap outing. Although the films aren't all current, you get what you pay for.
The same movies and snacks at way under market prices. Bernie, how do you do it??
A++++++
Cheapest cinema I ever went to. Everything is not expensive even the food and drinks. Room and seats are good for the price. They play movies that have been in theater in a while.
Admission is $2.50 plus tax, so it comes to $2.88. It might be a good deal for you if: You're okay in a 'V' shaped room with the screen at the bottom of the vee and a big concrete pillar filling the top two-thirds of the vee; You're okay with the projector being to the left of center, creating a keystone distortion of the projection 'rectangle'; You're okay with a LOT of noise from the lobby and people entering at the front of the room at odd times, apparently looking for another screening; You're okay with the next movie scheduled to start the minute before your movie was scheduled to finish. (Our movie started on time at 12 noon and was scheduled to finish at 2:46. The next screening was scheduled to begin at 2:45.) At the downtown Forum Cinema, admission is $6.20, tax included, on Tuesdays if you have their free Scene. It's $7.00 otherwise. It is a lot nicer there and not much more expensive.
Amazing
The staff are awesome like friends of the family. Cinam sound is very good always a place to sit . And if you don't like the film they well let you pick another one. Great people
Great place to watch classics!
Was not a dollar, but the most wholesome place you'll go to watch a random movie at anytime during the week. Drinks and pop corn won't cost your liver, and the man at the cash will serve you extremely well. Go support them and go see Bo Burnham's "Inside" until the 29th of July 2021.
If you are looking for a fancy entertainment centre you are at the wrong place. However, if you like the mom and pop concept, with the owner knowing your name and the charm of watching a movie in vintage cinema, this is the perfect spot. You should try the $1 popcorn!
Grear
Pretty good dollar store
Great cinema for a cheap price.
(Translated) Cheap and it does the job (Original) Pas cher pis ca fait la job
Great place
Room 1 and 2 are amazing for the price. I cannot recomment room 3 tho as it is literally a school projector in a tiny room.
Ok
The Cinema was great. The seats are comfortable. The snacks are not expensive. I liked the experience. The screen was the perfect size!
Go back in the past and enjoy an inexpensive movie experience in a vintage setup! Don't expect luxury or anything fancy. Nice snack selection. Get the 20 movies for 20$!
When the Price Needs To Be Right; well priced cinema with a small selection of food and drinks too!
Never there
Very inexpensive place to go see a movie just exiting the mainstream theatres. 1 ticket cost only 2$, or 20 tickets for 20$.
Visiting $ Cinema since 2008 and thoroughly enjoyed each & every visit. Friendly, efficient staff, economical & fresh refreshments (specially the Samosas) every time it was a wonderful experience ????????????
