Staff is consistent, the new renovations to the rest rooms are awesome...clean, and hands free. The theaters have new comfy captains chairs and you pick seats(lettered) so social distancing isnt an issue. Refreshments are more affordable for combos. Mask up and enjoy a movie in the new normal!

Love the recliner seats, the 1/2 price large popcorn and large drink. Only open on Friday, Saturday, Sunday. Everyone wears face masks to and from seats and in line. Ive really enjoyed watching the old movies as well as the ones released before the shut down. The crew working and managing seemed interested in your enjoying the experience.

Today was my first time going to this particular theater. I caught the 2:45pm showing of It:Chapter 2. It is pretty small for a Malco theater but still enjoyable. It was peaceful and quiet. I despise movie crowds. I love how the lobby is set up with the movie posters on the wall. It even has a piece of history, an old movie projector from Arkansas. If Im in the area again and feel like catching another flick I will be back.

There were rips and tears in the seats. Also, during our movie, we could hear the movie in the next room playing. Thats ridiculous. There is obviously little sound proofing in the walls. Not a good experience, although I am giving it 2 stars instead of 1 because the employees seemed nice and helpful.

At the end of Birds of Prey after the credits like any other DC movie they have an extra scene explaining the next movie...they cut it of in the middle of that scene. I enjoyed the entire experience except that.

I went to see IT: Chapter 2 last night on September 7 for the 10:00PM showing. I could not be more displeased with what occurred. I had to switch seats twice because of broken seats. Also? The amount of ambient light from the cell phones being used during the film was aggravating. And one more thing: I should not have to feel like Im going to get a contact high from being in your theater. Do you not care about people getting high during your movies? I dont want to be around that. I would like to respectfully call upon you, Malco, to do a better job of making your theater a clean, functioning, welcoming, and enjoyable location to visit. I waited two years to see this film. The entire experience was ruined. This is unacceptable.

Theater chairs need to be updated, but the neon signs and decor were nostalgic. There is actually a parking lot here, so thats a BIG plus here in Memphis! Picture quality and sound were good. Theater was easy to get to. All around good experience!

One of my favorite theaters in Memphis. Great little theater in the perfect location. :^)

While it doesnt have a vast selection of films it does have that quietness and serenity that a lot of theaters dont these days.They dont have the big block busters that usually come out so be aware of that. The seats also dont recline.But theyre never sold out. So its the perfect place to go if youve eaten at any place in midtown and want to top it off with a nice little film.

I love the quaintness of this theater. Also the wide selections of screenings from independently films to replays of classic films. Plus you can get wine!!

This place was okay, but the seats werent as comfortable as they were the first time. This was the only problem Ive had with this place. The staff is pretty cool

I think Im being generous with three stars. I do like the intimate feel of the theater, and its usually quieter than Paradiso. But all of the theaters smell like urine. And lastly, if you buy your tickets online, you have to pay a convenience fee. I cant remember what it was exactly, but it was about $5 or $6. But when you go to the theater, you still have to wait in the same line as everyone else to print your tickets. If you printed your tickets at home, they have to still scan them for you in the same line. I have to say, though, that the worst part of this theater is the urine smell in the theaters. Its alarming.

Good space; wonderful concessions (desserts, cheese/meat trays), cocktails, beer available. Eclectic lobby, tres cool! Theaters themselves outdated, uncomfy seats, cup holders suck. Definitely needs makeover but til then, not a bad time.

Review №16

Studio has a great mix of blockbusters and indie flicks. Plus they serve wine and beer and they have fruit and cheese plates and other food, not just the standard candy and popcorn. This is where everyone in midtown is on a Friday night.

Nice small and cozy theater to watch movies in. I watched the Joker there recently and didnt have any major problems. I did however sit in a seat wrapped in duct tape but besides that it was a great place.

Review №18

This is an awesome theater, they have 5 screens when they first opened they showed mostly all Independent films now they shall s Independent films, and a few mainstream films. This place serves wine and beer and food and of course the traditional popcorn nachos and candy. It is a nice small quaint cozy place to spend with friends or a loved one I used to work here I loved it.

Quiet theatre, which I prefer. Not the typical crowd of kids hanging out. Usually has the latest movies. Theatre is outdated and has that mildewed smell.

Recliner seating is great. You get more space and you get to recline. Love the new renovation. We saw Detective Pikachu and the kids loved the theater and movie. But as always, snacks and drinks are high.

Theater was fine. There was no control over the other guests though. Multiple people getting up and walking with flashlights on while talking. No attempt at all by staff to provide good atmosphere. They serve alcohol though, so thats a plus.

Never again will I come here! The reason is finding a parking spot is horrible and the drunks will talk and get on the phone throughout the entire movie. This the first time I been to a movie theater where there is no room chaperone to watch over uncivilized adults.

The location is really the selling point here; you cant beat the convenience if you live around midtown, and its awesome to walk to one of the bars in Overton Square after a show.Could be a little cleaner, could be a little cheaper, but still a way better option than driving to the paradiso

I dont like spending $20 plus at the concession just for me and having to beg for butter. Then still had to go back and ask again. I dont care how the workers like theirs, they are there to serve what customers ask for and when someone says LOTS of butter and they are spending that much give them LOTS. This is the closest theater to me, but the other 2 I go to offer do it yourself butter......you probably have lost my business.

Clean theaters, great picture and sound, comfy seats... And beer and wine! The prices are a little high in comparison to a bar, but not by much, and the selection of local craft beers is fantastic. Well worth it to have a drink and see a movie. Plus ticket prices are very affordable. My favorite movie theater!!

I absolutely love this theater. Its always clean with friendly staff unlike the larger theaters in Memphis. I would like to see them add audio descriptive services (headphones) for the visually impaired. We have a huge population of visually impaired in Memphis that get overlooked and they have to travel to Little Rock for these options.

Although my husband and I live in the city, this was our first movie experience here. This is definitely one of Memphiss best kept secrets. I had a glass of wine while my husband opted for the cheesecake! Dont think well be going to any other movie theaters as long as this one is here. Great food, smaller more mature crowd, and the seating is a bit more comfortable in comparison to most theaters. #Date Night!!

One star because the smell & heat is unbearable.This is usually not the condition. A warning sign would of been nice. The smell is nauseating.Left before the movie started.

Very nice experience, wonderful staff and the place was superb in terms of cleanliness. They serve alcohol! Which is a wonderful perk during movie watching. Not alot of food stuff to choose from, so the traditional popcorn will have to do. Great movie choices to choose from, they do a good job of getting the top movies coming out.

Cozy and cool. Not a big mall mega theater and convenient if you live down or mid down. Most of the patrons are nice folks, but unfortunately you have people like Chelsea Butler, who go there, give it one star. Notice she is the only one. She is a troll and likely has no manners who talks and surfs their phone during the movie, like two young females I sat next to last time. When asked nice to please stop talking, they acted like beasts. The staff was attentive, but I had to move. Movie theater great, people like Chelsea suck.
