Comparative to Cinemark (the other theater in town), this venue is clearly newer and has better…read moretechnology. Bigger stadium style seating, better projection, and higher quality sound, with Dolby Atmos offerings for certain films. That said, you're going to pay for it. Whereas a late showing at Cinemark runs $9.50- $9.75 (as of 26 May 25), Malco is charging $11.25-$11.75. On Tuesday specials, you have a similar gap, with Cinemark around $5, and Malco around $7. I generally find this reasonable given the differences. We swung by on Memorial Day during a busy opening, holiday extended weekend. Booking online (and having to pay extra for it) helps get past any lines, and skip to the kiosk. Like most modern theaters, there's no traditional movie stubs; rather cheap receipt paper tickets, about as thin as toilet paper. Being a stub collector I find this disappointing, but again I can't ding them for it, as it's par for the course with most theatres. The staff was courteous, and the theater clean. Until that point I was sitting on five (5) stars ... unfortunately I cannot ignore or forgive the state of disrepair my "luxury" seat was in (picture included; House 5, Row J). And the two (2) next to it, weren't far behind, so it clearly wasn't a one (1) off. This is not something that gets accidentally missed, nor something that happened suddenly. Because of that, I can't get past a two (2). However, being a film lover, I will try again in about a month, booking the same House, to see if there are any changes. If so, I'll update my rating accordingly.

The theater is always clean. I love getting to order tickets on line and pick our seats out.read more

5 Stars "Back to School - 1800s Style!"…read more If you've ever wanted to step into a real-life episode of Little House on the Prairie--minus the homework--this little schoolhouse delivers in spades! Tucked behind the Union County Heritage Museum, this one-room gem is like a time capsule that smells faintly of chalk, wood smoke, and straight-up nostalgia. The moment you walk in, you half-expect to be handed a slate and get scolded for not knowing your multiplication tables. The desks? Tiny and creaky in the best way. The blackboard? Authentic. The whole vibe? Pure Mississippi history magic. Bonus: They sometimes do living history days, and if you catch one, it's like the whole place comes alive with old-timey sass and Southern charm. It's educational, yes--but also totally Instagrammable. Great for kids, history nerds, and anyone who enjoys a little "sit up straight and mind your manners" energy with their museum visit. Highly recommend adding this to your North Mississippi day trip bucket list!
