    Unreal experience. Wide selection of videos. The memorabilia is AWESOME. A one of a kind, vintage yet modern concept.

    I swear I'm not that old but I SO miss walk-in video rental stores. I grew up with a local one by my house that just recently closed and to be honest I thought they were all gone. But then I found this place, and it's incredible! First, they have a HUGE selection of videos that are organized by (adorably named) categories. They also have a wall of academy award best picture by date - which I love because I've slowly been working through the list. Second, they have a cute little theater within the store that they play previews and sometimes even films on. When I went I got to see the last half of The Wizard of Oz! Third, the store is owned by a major movie fan who has collected random memorabilia from a wide range of films. So, as you browse for a movie, you'll walk by costumes and props from some famous (and some lesser known) movies. My only complaint is that it's not closer to my house!

    Movie madness is soooo cool! In a time when streaming has taken over, movie madness brings back everything so cool with movie history. They have Blu-ray, dvd, and even vhs! It's cool cuz they have all these props from different movies, snacks and even a theatre inside. Love this place!

    This place brings back a great sense of nostalgia. The only things that have changed are the masks during covid times and the expanding selection of movies from the popular current ones to the very obscure. Employees are friendly. Everything is so very well organized. I do love walk-in video rental stores and just going thru all of the aisles. I used to come semi-regularly when I lived in the area, and love coming in when I am visiting. I will never not try to come in when I am visiting the area. This holds a deep place in my heart for Portland and the area. I hope they remain for a long time.

    As a huge movie buff and fan of Movie Madness, I'm surprised I've only visited a few times in the last ten years. It took a reminder that they might close to quickly drive down and rent a DVD. The awesomeness of this place is still what I remember. Today, in addition to finding a rare film that's been on my list, I took the time to peruse all the memorabilia. If the Hollywood Theater is successful in their $250,000 Kickstarter campaign to save Movie Madness I will include them with Netflix, Amazon, and Comcast of how I source my films.

    Discovered this little gem in SE Portland! It was featured on Good Day Oregon, so decide to play tourist with my daughter. Really enjoyed their museum of movie costumes and props. I looked for a few of my favorite movies to see if they had any in their for sale section. If I lived closer, I would definitely rent movies here!

    With 50,000 titles, not only is this the best Movie/Video store in Portland, it's one of the best on the planet! And, it's an excellent museum! And... and... it's recently became larger! I think of Movie Madness as the Powell's of video rentals in Portland. We should all thank Mike Clark for creating this fantastic place on Belmont. To make your movie search easier, use the video lookup feature on their website before you head for the store, http://www.moviemadnessvideo.com/ Owner Mike Clark was a Hollywood studio technician until 1991 when he opened Movie Madness. 5,900 square feet and room for 100,000 movies! Don't forget to check their video clerks too, they're way cool. I took a few photos of the "museum" portion of the store, so take a look! The display includes a dress Julie Andrews wore in "The Sound Of Music" and one of the knives Anthony Perkins used in "Psycho."

    Wow. Movie Madness is absolutely epic. I did some research prior to visiting Portland and I knew that I just HAD to check this place out. Brendan and I ended up coming here twice during the 4 days we were in Portland, and I wish we could have spent even more time here. Not only is this the coolest video store I've ever seen, but it's also essentially a museum as well. We could not believe the memorabilia that is here. From movie props to costumes to replicas of famous movie monsters- they had it all! We literally came here just to walk around and try to look at every incredible thing they had on display. Now, back to the videos.. the movies are categorized in really unique ways. The back room had a lot of horror movies, cult classics, movies that were categorized by actor and director. They had documentaries, music videos on tape, travel videos, tv shows... everything. Even a ton of a foreign films and they had an Adam Sandler section, which was of course, my fav. They had a bunch of cool merchandise for sale, including t-shirts, posters, dvds, and a beer that was made just for Movie Madness through a collab with a local brewery- how cool is that?! You could either take the beer to-go, or drink it in the video store while you browse (Which is exactly what we ended up doing). We had the greatest time here, and it was probably the highlight of our entire time in Portland. I can't recommend this place enough and I CANNOT wait to go back.

    Everything is awesome excepts the lines sometimes. You can find any and every movie just about. They carry cool T's with movie themes.

    I love this place! I love that its still around. After reading other reviews, i am shocked. Never…read morehad an issue eith Mr. Video. In fact I got text saying i owed a few dollars in late fees. Text sounded a little snarky .I responded to him right away and a told him I would come pay the fees the next day- I told him I was terribly sorry for the oversight. I got a response right away saying thank you for my understanding. If you have a late fee - just pay it. It might not be much but if everyone owed a dollar it would add up real.quick.. The organization of the movies is odd to me... BUTT....you can ask an employee to help and they are always willing to. Like I said- I love this place!

    This place is amazing. It's also a relic left standing as a reminder of a better time…read more Sure you could stream your movies, videos, and games on services like Netflix or gamefly, but if you're anything like me it's just not the same. I need to see the box. Look at the pictures on the back and really weigh my options. That's why I love this place. I can rent games for all systems. I can rent DVDs and blue rays. I can choose from a physical selection instead of virtual. They have it all and its close to home. Hello instant gratification. The real bonus isn't the selection and gratifaction. It's the prices and customer service. The employees will bend over backwards for the customers. Reserving games and movies to make the customer happy. The prices are so affordable. Rent a game for $4 for 3 days. And for a dollar a day after that you can re rent for two days. This place is amazing. I can only hope that it weathers and stands 20 years from now.

    The family and I live out beyond the West Hills, but I genuinely enjoy my few trips to Milwaukie…read more Before we lost Kellogg Bowl to the pandemic, it was one of the few towns in the Portland metro where you still had your pick of bowling alleys. The far-flung Milwaukie brewery was my first taste of Breakside, and I'm glad to see the town has drawn a Pfriem location as well. Get a steak at Acropolis at least once. But Great American? OK, maybe it's a little like having the Quick Stop and RST Video from Clerks if they were taken over by Latter Day Saints, but it's an impressive library of rentals (if a few steps below Movie Madness) at a budget-friendly rental price. But that's not what drew me here. Portland has no problem pushing a bowl of bingsu at you on a hot day, testing your interest in Hawaiian shave ice or, or occasionally dipping a toe into kakigori or halo-halo, but it knows absolutely jack shit about Italian ice. Derived from the Sicilian granita and best described as a denser sorbet or a dairy free sherbet, Italian ice (or water ice for you Mid Atlantic kids) is a back east summer staple that occasionally appears in the Portland metro area until a pandemic or lack of interest kills it dead. With only one real producer of it here, in Gresham, Italian ice is hard to come by outside of a supermarket freezer--and I'd rather pay shipping for some Marino's than subject myself to the war crime that is Luigi's lemon ice. But Great American keeps it in high supply and plays the hits: Lemon, watermelon, root beer, black cherry, mango. Not only do they sell it alongside frozen custard--a classic boardwalk combo and the pairing that made Philly-based Rita's famous--but they'll occasionally throw in a mind-blowing seasonal like raspberry lemon. I'm good for only about one trip a year, but lately less. Thankfully, a friend on the east side is also from my corner of the world and occasionally smuggles us a couple of quarts on the Italian ice underground. This last trip? Root beer and raspberry lemon. The texture is perfect and the flavors are spot on. I'm not used to refreezing it, so I've noticed it solidifies a bit after the first serving, but otherwise, I can't recommend it enough. It isn't the place on the corner where I grew up, and it isn't the Little Jimmy's Italian ice trucks rolling through the neighborhood, but it's a little scoop of home that I can sit and enjoy with Dante and Randall when we all feel we aren't supposed to be here today.

    Trash customer service. Over priced mid menu and added charges to literally anything you order…read morethey have extra charges don't go there.

They carry video games from most consoles from the past 30 years, the consoles for the games, Lego sets, funko pops, and more! Keep in mind they sell what they get so they might not have every game but I got four N64 games I really wanted! During my visit I saw, Sega Genisis, SNES, N64, PS1, Dreamcast consoles and more! And yeah maybe I paid a few extra dollars on some things but it supports local business and hopefully keeps brick and mortar stores like this around much longer. Sometimes you don't know what you have till it's gone people. Ken the manager was incredibly knowledgeable, helpful, and nice! Comparing their prices to Amazon or EBay, they seem to be right in line as far was what they're charging. In many cases actually charging less. Give this place a look!

    Only a one-time visitor, but the store was your basic console retail business…read more I am impressed with the store's stock of vintage games and gaming accessories (NES/etc), but it's nothing you can't find at any other cookie-cutter clone-chain gaming store. I was disappointed with the location's apparent lack of Magic: The Gathering singles. One would think that with the HUGE window displays of M:TG artwork/branding that they would have more to offer than your basic booster packs and card sleeves. The store's customer service met your basic standards: greeted, asked if I needed assistance, wished a good day upon exit. I say it's definitely worth a stop if consoles are your thing.
