It's a tiny, rural town and they have a movie theater? Everyone should be happy. The theater was…read morehuge, and ticket prices dirt cheap. The seats are in decent condition, the parking was easy, and the people were friendly. What else can you ask for? It's not perfect. The squeaky seat hinges could be silenced with a $5 can of WD-40. They could offer Twizzlers. But it's great for what it is.

For a life-long patron of big city theaters and having to always pay $9.50+ for each person, this…read moretheater was a breath of fresh air! Granted there is only one screen, so only one movie can be played at a time, but for the price and the grandness of the theater, I can't say I care. The candy is a little high for the size, but in relation to a big city theater, still cheap. The soft drinks were plentiful and cold and there were many other drink options as well. The only negative of the evening, was that the popcorn was stale. It was warm and buttery, just tasted like it had been reheated from a previous showing. And last, the seating, it's nothing to write home about, but still adds to the character and small town charm of the Forrest Theater. Some had scuffed backs from people putting their feet up, while others had tape holding the vinyl together, but all in all, I enjoyed seeing a film in this old-style theater.

It's a 2 star rating, because its not like the theater persons are the actors in the movies, so…read morewith that, the movie we saw recently was great and we were happy to see so many people returning to the theater. (hello COVID RUINED THIS) However, it was impossible to add and enjoy concessions, at the price they were being offered. Shame on you GL7. 2 Pops and a large popcorn for $25.00 ??? Absolutely ridiculous. Why not be the exeption and charge less and be the theater that people talk about for that reason. I just think that it costs more to snack than it does to attend the show is horrid. For the record, there is a little theater in Jackson, MN which runs new movies and it is cheap to attend and the concession prices are old school.

It's not a multi-plex like the ones in Spencer (to the South) and Okoboji (to the North), but it does show current films and at a decent admission price. It's also a handy place to go on a rainy day or if you're in the mood to be in an air conditioned space for a couple hours. Yes, the Pioneer is a little frayed at the edges, but it remains a quality movie watching value.

The seats sound like there are plastic bottles in them whenever you adjust the seat. I want my money back.
