Kodiaks only movie theater (unless you have access to the CG Base). Isnt always able to bring in opening-weekend releases, but we usually get the big movies at least for a week. Soda and candy prices are fairly high, but still on par with movie theaters everywhere else.

Best movie theater on Kodiak island! Actually the movies are really reasonably priced. Especially for a community no know for an expensive cost of living. Nice to have a local theater, instead of the same corporate owned ones you encounter other places. The place has been around, in one form or another for coming up on a century, and was one of the last theaters in America to switch from 35mm film to digital. In 2013. Also adding 3D movies to their offerings at that time.

I love this theater. It is quaint and the employees are always happy to be there. The place is clean and the snacks are on par for a movie theater. It’s walkable from almost everywhere in townTwo thumbs up.

Saw Avengers, decent theater, lots of snacks. The popcorn was actually better than most chain theaters. Unfortunately the sound was relatively quiet and the chairs arent super comfortable, but the visual quality was good.

Its an old theater with new technology. The newest movies arent always showing, which is to be expected in a small, remote island. They try their best to provide for everyone on the island.Im not a big fan of 3D so I like to go to the 2D versions of the movies.

Its a classic small town movie theater, with modern movies. Its like going back in time to see movies before the multi-plex. On a rainy evening in Kodiak, its great place to go back in time while seeing a modern movie.

The theatre itself is quaint and what is to be expected of Kodiak. They only play a single move per week on their one screen and the selection can be hit or miss. The chairs are uncomfortable, the screen is small, and worst off the bathroom smelled so incredibly bad it was hard to breathe.

One and only theater. VIP ticket option means, pay a couple extra bucks for balcony seats, nothing extra besides that (does keep you above riff raff if thats a concern). I did see the latest 2018 3D star wars here, movie played without interruptions so a solid 3 stars earned for that.Seats-are mostly comfortable and clean. Snackbar- Drinks expectantly are Kodiak $^with no refill policy, also rather small for a theater, but you can get a hot dog if you like.Popcorn isnt outstanding but wasnt bad by any means. Ill watch more movies here.

Ill admit that I have a certain bias when it comes to rating this theater. I was born in Kodiak, and the first film I ever saw when I was 4--Star Wars--was at the Orpheum. I have many childhood movie memories associated with this small theater. Over the years I would see a lot of the great films here. There has been lots of changes to equipment since. They used to have mono sound, and it was good quality mono, too--nice and rich. Then they finally got the Dolby Digital system installed, and the sound is now very good, not perfect, but very good. To my ears, anyway, it sounds a little pushed to the treble end, but that may be just me. Nice bass thump with explosions (the sub-woofer is mounted in back of the screen I was told, and that seems to be a good place for it). The image quality is exceptional. Nice, clean HD digital image. Its true that the screen is small (Im not sure of the exact measurement), but for the size of the theater itself, it feels just right when you are watching a film. Did I mention that this little theater has RealD 3D capability? Yes! Prices are good too, much cheaper than at the big multiplexes. For the cheapest price, you want to go during matinee, on Saturdays and Sundays at 2:00. The only drawback here is that the films are shown in 2D only during matinee showings.A unique feature of the Orpheum is that they offer balcony seating (also known as loges seating)--of which you can buy your ticket in advance. This is very cool, as it makes you feel that you are sitting in your own personal theater.Lastly, the people there are really nice. The concession counter runs efficiently with speedy service. The popcorn is great. They also offer hot dogs--which are also pretty good.Oh, one more thing. They recently started showing older films here, as well, such as The Sound of Music. ( I wish I would have been able to see it! I heard that the digital print and sound quality were amazing). How many theaters have that option?The Orpheum Theatre is a unique venue in every way. There are not too many single screen public theaters left in the U.S.. If you are ever on a visit to Kodiak Island, it would be well worth your time to stop in and catch a show.
