Review from M L.

I have to say that despite not being a gigantic surround sound, 3D, sensor round scratch n sniff theater, I really like this place. They are a small town theater but they still get first -run movies. If you call to get times, the owner kind of gives his opinion of the movie,( if its ok for kids, if he likes it...etc. ). Some of the opinions are funny to listen to. Also, I like that it's really close and that I don't have to run 40 miles to Fresno to catch a flick. If you save your large popcorn bucket and bring it in next time you get a substantial discount on the popcorn as well. Also, the theater is very clean and has no funky smells as the complainer in the earlier review stated.I know this isn't one of the 3D stadium seating theaters that are taking over the country but it definitely gets the job done. If you need to see a movie and don't feel like driving 40 miles to Fresno, this is your place.

I hate to bag on a small town movie theater but really, its poorly ran and I've had too many problems here over the years. I don't know if its for the old folks that go to see a movie but the volume is either really low, annoyingly loud, or messed up. There are always scratches on the screen and it's just not the best quality. It's kind of dirty and smells odd. The theaters in the Met 1 are REALLY small. It makes me feel like I'm in a banquet room or something (ceiling fan?). Met 2 is a lot better. There shouldn't be such a huge difference but there is. I think all of the newer movies are shown in the Met 2 (bigger theaters, wider space but there are only two theaters.) and all the ones that have been there for a while are in the Met 1 (more, but smaller theaters, crammed space). I heave a sigh of relief when the movie I'm seeing is in the Met 2. It's just a way more enjoyable experience so try to see a movie around the time it comes out...
The staff has gotten better but for a while they seemed to be really rude. A blonde girl always acted like she hated her job and did not want to be there. As of late, I think there are new people, everyone's been a lot more accomodating. -

Yay! I'm a fan of hella cheap matinees, running first-run movies at a place where I'm on vacay. Folks were pretty polite about being quiet while the film was running, even if the theater was packed with teen girls out on Winter Break. Cheap eats, too! Harsh lighting and cold concrete floors, so minus one star for that.
