    We have been to the theater several times & this time we ordered 3 tickets & at the last minute needed another ticket & where our seats were reserved there was no more seats. So I called & the gentleman I talked to moved our seats to accommodate the 4 of us. We was so pleased. The other two that went with us, it was their first time & they loved it & have said they want to go back again. My husband & the other gentleman that went with the 4 of us were both picked to go up on stage & let’s just say the tears were rolling with laughter. Had to buy the cd of the show just to show the grandkids so they could see how funny their grandpa could be. We always come out of the shows laughing & smiling. Just a great place to spend a night out. See more..

    - Wow!
    Saturday: Theaters
    Cincinnati Music Hall image
    Built in 1878 and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1975, Cincinnati’s Music Hall is among the City’s most recognizable buildings. Impressive from the outside for its Victorian-gothic architecture, it’s arguably more remarkable on the inside as the home to the Cincinnati Opera (the nation’s second-oldest opera company), Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra (the nation’s sixth-oldest symphony orchestra), May Festival (the longest-running choral festival in the Western hemisphere), and Cincinnati Ballet. Following a lengthy closure for extensive renovations during the 2016-17, Music Hall re-opened in October 2017 and has re-established itself as Cincinnati’s premiere special events and concert venue and an integral part of the vibrant Over-the-Rhine neighborhood in which it is located.

    Went to see 1917 after finding out that they were showing the film. What a great place to see a movie! First you get entertained by one of the few remaining Kilgen organs and the only one in it's original setting! Great to hear some of the music it creates. Movie was great and seeing it on a HUGE screen with a great sound system was a treat, Nice surroundings, not crowded, reasonably priced and had all of the amenities of any theater without the inflated costs!

  15. 4.5 Cedar Lee Cinema (102 reviews)
    - Excellent 'Adult' Theatre
    Saturday: 11:00 AM - 11:00 PM Movie Theaters
    Cedar Lee Cinema image
    First opening its doors on Christmas Day 1925 as an 1,100 seat, single-screen theater, the Cedar Lee Theatre was transformed into a twin-screen theater in 1983 to compete with the increasing number of multiplexes and to meet the demand to play an ever growing number of specialty films. Two Hollywood-style screening rooms were added in 1991 - allowing guests to the theater to enjoy truly specialized films. Finally in 1994 two modern stadium-style theaters were added to bring the current screen count to six. For more than three decades the words "Cedar Lee Theatre" and "specialty film" have been synonymous in Cleveland. Ushering in an era when specialty film would transcend art-house appeal, and coupled with its unique concession stand the first to offer baked goods, sandwiches, specialty coffee drinks, and imported beer and wine the Cedar Lee Theatre continues to be the movie theater of choice for many Greater Clevelanders.

  16. 3.5 Movie Tavern (101 reviews)
    - I like it, but it's kind of quirky (as am I)
    Bars & Clubs • Theaters
    Movie Tavern image
    Rows of office chairs on wheels in front of narrow tables before the next row of seating for dining. Could be comfy, but they need to take 1 or 2 chairs out of each row so they're not banging right up next to each other. The modern fixed, somewhat reclining, theater seats at the Lennox are more comfortable. I like the food/bar/movie concept but have never ordered anything. Previews were LOUDER THAN HAIL! the last time we were there. As promised it was only for them. Volume returned to human level for the movie. Picture quality was fine. Good staff. Convenient location to Hilliard. Ample parking. Do it. See more..
  17. 4.5 Victoria Theater (98 reviews)
    - Grand Old Theater
    Saturday: Theaters
    Victoria Theater image
    Visited this wonderful venue to see a comedy routine and was very impressed. The restoration work that was obviously performed was very good. The upstairs lobby can be a little tight, but other than that there were decent bathrooms for a historic theater, the stairways were plenty wide and easy to navigate, and there was a bar both in the main lobby and the upstairs lobby. Seating was very comfortable and good views of the stage, but I would believe that if you were much taller than 5'10" or had really long legs, it might get a little cramped for you. The house staff were very helpful and extremely professional. Looking forward to another performance here. See more..

    Regal Crocker Park and IMAX image
    I visited Crocker Park for my birthday weekend. We had hotel reservations at the Hyatt Place (right next to the movie theater), so my boyfriend and I decided to go see Moana after dinner at Cheesecake Factory. I really enjoyed this movie theater! This place is huge - somewhere around fifteen different theaters and an escalator. The seats in the theater are not the big plush recliners, but they do recline slightly and you can lift up the armrest in between seats if you would like. As we were leaving, we saw that they have Christmas classics showing every Saturday at noon for $5 (which is a real deal, because most things in Crocker Park aren't cheap - our tickets for a Friday night were about $12 each). And if you have a Regal membership card, you could also get a drink and popcorn combo for $5 during the Christmas movie. We came back the next day and saw A Christmas Story! I would recommend this movie theater to anyone visiting the area. See more..

    Elm Road Triple Drive-In image
    We really enjoyed our trip to this drive-in theater. There was plenty of room to park. High profile vehicles are asked to park in the back but that was no problem we could see the screen perfectly. The concession stand offers a huge variety of tasty refreshments. Even with social distancing policies we got through the concession line quickly and back to our vehicle in time to enjoy dinner and a great movie. My only concern is a lack of accessibility. The gravel was near impossible for me to roll over in my wheelchair and I was not able to get into the concession stand as there did not seem to be a ramp. It also meant I couldn’t get to the restrooms. But I was still able to enjoy the Clean and nostalgic atmosphere As well as a great movie. The owner was selling tickets the night we went and talked to us for a while about the history of the place and how his family has owned it for three generations. Will definitely go back many times!

    This was my and my husband's 1st time at this venue. We were not disappointed! The parking was directed(snowy night) and FREE!! The event staff was nice and helpful. It had nice concessions, ample restrooms, and great seating. It was a smaller venue and had great acoustics! We had front row balcony seats and had a perfect view! We had a great night!! For the $25 admission, we listened to 4 bands! Our reason for going was Samantha Fish! She blew the roof off!! I couldn't believe the amount of talent that girl has! We have become Fish Fans for sure and are pretty confident we will have a hard time finding $25 tickets to her concerts in the future. She is going to make a name for herself and it won't take long!!! See more..

    I love the variety this theatre offers. Pre-pandemic, they had concerts, musical reviews, magic shows, etc., as well as classic and first run movies. They also have special events where you can rent out the theatre to watch a movie of your choice for Valentines and other holidays. It's a great place to volunteer as well! The ticket price and concessions are both extremely reasonable, as it is a non profit theatre, and there is a huge selection of restaurants, specialty stores, dessert offerings, a wine shop, and two breweries within walking distance. It offers plenty of parking opportunities and is located right off the bikeway, by the river, and by Riverfront Park so there are numerous recreational opportunities in the area as well. Downtown Miamisburg can definitely be an all day destination! See more..

You can enjoy the usual movie theatre fare, but you can also buy wine and beer and flavored waters. It has a small stage, so occasional local concerts are also held there.

    Perfect night not only to see the stars on the screen but the stars in the sky on a crisp September night. My husband and I were taken back by the nostalgia. Childhood memories, date night memories and memories of taking our own children. The concessions had everything we remembered from pizza to popcorn, sandwiches, candy in boxes, ice cream, and ice cold drinks. The digital quality of the movie and the sound was great. Thanks for keeping a piece of the past alive. We can't wait till next weekend. See more..

    My friend and I were very excited to see Batman vs. Superman. We bought tickets online while heading to the theater in Westlake. On the way there, we realized we wouldn't make the beginning, so we headed back to North Olmsted, as we were closer to that theatre. When we arrived at the box office, the voucher I'd purchased wasn't working and I wasn't sure why. There was a sign up stating the movie had sold out, and an announcement was also made to that effect. The box office attendant immediately called her manager, who looked into and stated our vouchers were for the Westlake Theater. We apologized and asked if there was any way we could purchase for the current showing. The manager allowed us to go ahead into the theater and find whatever seating was available. He save us a trip back to Westlake, and a whole bunch of aggravation! Thank you, to all the staff at the Regal Cinema in North Olmsted. You ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See more..
