Outstanding and well run operation.. recently I went to see the latest Mission Impossible at a standard chain movie theater and had the whole place to myself, which is nice but sad. Tarantino's theater was sold out and had all the old school vibes from the glory days of film. Very generous prices for snacks and drinks, too. I feel that Tarantino's New Beverly Cinema model could be done all over the country. Anyway, consider this a must do experience to put on your to do list.

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

Best for film-loving families with older kids and teens who can engage with classic and arthouse programming. The Kiddee Matinees are the clearest fit for younger children β€” cartoon shorts before the main feature make these sessions specifically designed for families.

β€œBeen coming here for years and absolutely love this place! One of my favorite theaters in LA. Always has such a great lineup of movies each month and gives you the chance to see movies you normally wouldn't get a chance to see in theaters. I recommend preordering your tickets and lining up early to get the best seat. The popcorn here is so tasty much better than other movie theater popcorn. You also sometimes get surprise appearances from people who worked on the movie you're seeing which is really cool. The staff does a great job at making sure the movie experience isn't ruined by talking or phones which I greatly appreciate and makes every trip there great. They also have great merch for any fans of Quentin Tarantino's movies or the theater itself. If you're able to go to this theater I recommend it! A great place for any local or visiting cinephile!”

β€œBest popcorn this side of the Mississippi. Strict no phone policy. Love this place. Love the pre movie commentary. Love the atmosphere. Love the trailers curated especially for the movie we’re about to see. I come here at least three times to four times a month.”
