Rainy Sunday what to do? Go to a see a movie I've been wanting to see before it's gone! The…read morehousemaid is a book I'd read and wanted to see and I found it playing just 2 shows on a Sunday , something called a Final Cut feature. A $5 movie program they have here where each week they spotlight a movie for limited run with one or two showings, a chance to see a hit movie before it leaves theater. I got lucky ! Great not to have to spend a fortune as you can at the movies. They also give you a coupon when you buy your ticket for a popcorn and drink combo at discount price. Everything is done by self check out for tickets, with a person there to tell you where your theater is. They have a lot of concessions here too. Bathrooms clean, and the theater was pretty empty for my show. They have all the newest movies here and imax available. Lots of parking, and easy to navigate. This was a nice break in my rainy day, I'll be sure to see what's on their Final Cut showings in future.

For date night we decided to go see the Michael Jackson movie. The parking lot is huge and has lots…read moreof handicap spaces in front of the building. You no longer pay outside at the window. You can buy your tickets ahead of time online or use the Kiosk inside the main lobby. Concessions is in the main lobby and they have a few registers going at once so there is no long lines usually. You have your normal movie theater choices, nothing out of the ordinary. They do have a few specialty alcoholic drinks available, as well as a frozen Jack & Coke. Everything is a bit pricey. The theater itself was clean and you have assigned seats so no rush. Seats are reclinable and very comfortable. Lightning in the back row was dim and my wife almost ended up landing on her ass trying to find her seat in the dark. Movie quality and sound were great! Definitely will be back but probably eat ahead of time or sneak in some snacks......yes that's a Latino move but it's ok because I'm Latino! Go catch a movie, you won't be disappointed!

Though its simple diner / dive bar type of food, everything was yummy. Someone called out so they were short staffed but it was worth the wait . We tried just about everything . Highlight being the wings and corn fritters ! You can't find corn fritters everywhere . We'll definitely revisit this drive in verses the other local drive in . Only complaint being the bathroom . Though they were bearable it could've been a little cleaner .

Parking nearby in the public lot was convenient as was buying tickets online. $15 total for 3 matinee tickets was affordable in today's economy. Popcorn and drinks were also priced significantly below other larger theaters. I love the character of this theater and the friendly welcoming staff. We will be back soon!

We've been living in WS for over two years and we just discovered this theater!…read more I was checking movie showtimes when Marketplace Cinema popped up as the closest one. I was like, "Where is this???" We drive down that road all the time and had no idea it was even there! What we loved about it is that it's not one of those fancy theaters. It's an independent local theater that's definitely a little outdated, in the best vintage way! We don't need reclining seats or 3D to enjoy every movie. Sometimes all you want is a big screen and theaters like Marketplace Cinema are getting harder to find these days. The best part? Tickets were only $9 for us and just $7 for my college son! We'll definitely be back. I love finding and supporting local places like this.

Greensboro meets Winston-Salem when The Idiot Box Comedy Club takes over Marketplace Cinemas. With…read more$7 shows, a wide variety of refreshments sold (from beer and wine to popcorn and assorted candies) and an all-male comedian roster, this was truly a treat that left its sold-out crowd guffawing and gagging, literally, over the deliverances of jokes that ranged from raunchy adult to downright childish and silly! These groups of comedians did not come to disappoint as they approached everything from crowd interactions to tongue-in-cheek monologues performed. Marriage, modern day behaviors and protruding manholes were just a boisterous bit of memorable subjects discussed, leaving the crowd both stunned and stuck in their seats, doubling over with laughter. Myself (and my friends that I brought along) arrived just 15 minutes before the sold-out show only to enter a jam-packed theater house full of comedy-lovers. Seated directly in the front row (because there were absolutely no other available seats), I confess to feeling a tad bit anxiety over the possibility of becoming one of the comedians' targets to tease... but as the show commenced, I/we was/were left more than thrilled to have the best seats in the entire house! Would I go again when these "idiots" return to the soapbox & silverscreen in Salem? Uhhh, duhhhhh! Should others be sure to check out whenever they do make their way back to perform? At that affordable price, you'd be an idiot not to!

Snack bar concessions to the left of the entry. Also where you purchase your cinema tickets and any of items you might like. The staff are all friendly and courteous. We got our tickets and a drink and a popcorn each. Like I said in the beginning, it had been a while since I was last in a movie house. It was almost $70 bucks for two people and I used my veteran discount on the tickets or it would of been more like eighty. The theater itself was nice enough, but nothing fancy. It actually looked a little dated and dirty. Okay sound and a fair screen, my tv at home has a better picture in my opinion. It used to be an inexpensive way to go out, going to the movies. No more. A lot of things are said to have impacted and killed the movie industry, I believe the industry itself did it to itself. 2.5 Stars rounded up for the staff - not sure I would repeat, maybe maybe not? 01192
