I was in town for a wedding and was just floored to come to here. A historic theater that's been…read morepreserved and updated in all of the right ways, including great food and drinks and an incredibly kind staff. Honestly you gotta come just to see the interior of this place, it's so cool -- there's LED stars in the ceiling! And when's the last time you saw a theater THIS big? Usually these old places get chopped up into what amounts to glorified widescreen TV style screens... but not The Rivoli! Plus I hear they're renovating their top floors to add in studio space for local artists. Not to mention their great mix of programming from new release to family favorites and some cult fare. I hope you all know how special this is to have access to!! Long live the arts revitalization of America!

I honestly don't remember how often I came here back in the day (you know, when I was a kid), but…read morewhen I walked in this past week to see Wreck It Ralph, all the memories came flooding back. It's a small, two screen theater that is exactly how I remember it, down to the smell, even. It a sort of sweet, slightly musty smell that adds so much to the charm of this place. For some reason, as the nostalgia swept over me, I subconsciously felt compelled to get Twizzlers as my movie candy of choice (I believe they were usually accompanied by Reese's Pieces, too). Seats are relatively comfortable, though a little low on the back. I found that this helped me sit up straight during the movie, it would've been an epic slouch to be a comfortable one. Picture quality of the movie was great, volume/sound quality was great, as well. Nowadays, they're showing first run movies, so there's no need to head to Madison to see a movie on opening weekend if you're a movie nerd like me. On the down side, cash/checks only... but the Kwik Trip is right around the corner with a no fee ATM (just in case)! Also, only one screening of each movie on weekdays, two on weekends. Here's the real bummer: They recently found out that all movie releases starting next summer-ish are going to be in digital format only. Digital projectors are expensive. This theater may end up closing for good, unless they can raise the money to buy new projectors. I really hope that they will be able to accomplish their fundraising goal... Richland Center would be losing a cherished (to me, anyway) landmark if they cannot. Save the theaters (the drive in is at risk, too... the place where my cousin's now husband proposed) in Richland Center!

This has to be a first for me. 5 stars for a theatre? Wow!…read more This place was not only clean but even smelled good. Restroom was clean and spacious. We were able to pick our seats and reserve them ahead of time and the seats?? Wow. They were recliner seats and very comfy. Could almost lay flat to watch the movie. I almost fell asleep. What I liked most about this place was the staff, including the management, was busy with broom and dustpan cleaning the floor. Saw someone spill popcorn and they were there instantly to clean it up. Now I'd say that's pride in your place of work. Then again maybe it's job protection. lol Will definitely be going back.
