Having been to The Rangos Giant Cinema at the Kamin Science Center a few times now, it has easily become my favorite place in Pittsburgh to watch a movie. The massive 70-foot screen paired with the crystal-clear 4K laser projection makes everything you watch feel completely immersive, whether it's a stunning 3D nature documentary or a classic throwback film. The Dolby Atmos sound system is incredible and truly fills the room, and because the seating is so well-designed, you get a perfect view without anyone blocking your sightline. read more

Such a gigantic screen! I went to see talking heads making sense, which i had not seen previously. Seats were great. Nobody's head will block you because your sight-line will be above the seats in front of you. read more

The Rangos Giant Cinema - Cinema Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

I knew that movie that fit our schedule was only 25 minutes and priced same as other 45 minute movies. However, for that kind of money--I anticipated a really dynamic astronaut training experience. I was sorely disappointed and wished I'd researched individual reviews more thoroughly. Venue itself is great. read more

Amazing theater with an awesome sense of community! The sound and screen were great and I loved the robot hall of fame.

Nothing will EVER beat the omni max theater... nothing. But this is still a great theater. I've seen many movies here, including Star Wars and many educational documentaries. Recently, I saw the Ireland movie- 2x! It was great! Walking up the theater can be steep, so there are handicap entrances- which we took advantage of with our older family members. We had a great experience here and will be back many times to see other movies! read more

I went to a Bob Marley laser show as a 'favor' for my husband... the lasers were really cool. I would not recommend them if you are prone to migraines, or have a neuro disorder, such as seizures. I think if the music was more my taste, it would have been awesome. read more

I am very proud that there is a dome theater right in our dear Pittsburgh. Tickets are very reasonably priced, less than regular theaters. Even though they mainly show documentaries, it is worth it for the experience. You will lose yourself and feel fully immersed in the splendid images. Trust me, it's better than 3D and no glasses needed. I highly recommend seeing flicks with sceneries. I took my little 4 year-old cousin here to see "Flight of the Butterflies". At one point she was so into the movie that she stood up and reached out her arms trying to catch the butterflies. It was a beautiful sight. Thank you Omnimax for nurturing that childlike wonders. read more

A trip to the Omnimax Theater is always a good time and I have never left disappointed. The theater is massive the screen is something like 5 times that of a regular movie screen it's way bigger then the IMAX. Did you know that ever Christmas season the Omnimax screens Polar Express! I mean guys you really feel like you're riding on the train! Seeing the Polar Express annually has become something of a family tradition for me and the little ones. And how cool was it that Batman the Dark Knight Raises was also screened here? The massive screen added a layer of epic to the film viewing experience that in no way could be matched by any other theater around town. Tickets for movies at the Omnimax can be purchased separately from the general admission pass to the museum. I recall ticket prices for shows being any where for $9-$12.00. Bonus it's all set up like a movie theater and is accompanied by a concession stand that serves ICEEs. I would not suggest it for very little kids under 5 , the sound is very loud and can prove to be frightening and over whelming. I learned this the hard way. read more

We love the Omnimax! Don't forget it's there when there's no good kid movies in the theaters! Ticket prices are affordable; and, every time we go, the concession stand gets better. There's always a variety of show options too. And, if the Science Center is busy, remember that you can go straight down to the theater and purchase tickets there. This is a solid rainy day activity for kids of all ages! read more

We drove an hour and a half to go to a 10:20 sunday morning show. We bought tickets in advance and were excited to go. When we arrived, we were told that they were experincing techinical difficulites and the show was canceled. No email was sent, no update on their website. Nothing. They reimbursed us for our tickets and parking. But we drove an hour and a half. I asked for free tickets to the next show since we drove so far and they ignored us. Save your money and go to cleveland read more

All I can say is "WOW". This theater is beyond amazing. I have never been to the Imax Theater and we were at the Science Center for the Guitar exhibit and I wanted to see the "Born to be Wild" movie. We only got to see an hour of the film because the power went out, but I will definately be back. This would be an awesome theater to see an action packed movie. I can't believe I've never been here before. read more

The Omnimax is amazing when you see the movies that were meant to be projected on it--like ""Flight of the Butterflies" and "Born to be Wild." It's not as great for feature films. I saw Star Trek Into Darkness there recently, and it was eh. When the camera panned down quickly, there was a rush like on a rollercoaster. But there was a large part of the frame that was clearly cut off--I could tell when there was text on the screen especially as about a quarter of letters would be missing. On the plus, while the movie tickets themselves run $12 a person, the concessions are crazy cheap...like $3.50 for a big popcorn cheap. On the negative, on my most recent visit, they did not honor a discount program I belong to, which was pretty lame. read more

If you've never been to an OMNIMAX theater (NOT imax), you should go at least once. Only see movies made for OMNIMAX, your typical mainstream movies do not look good on these screens, so don't try. Instead opt for a national geographic title. Preferably anything under water. For some reason the under water movies just seem so real. The screen is dome, so it feels like it wraps around you, and it's 4 stories tall, so it's all you see. Go in early and sit near the top center. You may get dizzy going up but it really is the best view. read more
