| - It took me a long time to get around to reviewing Camelview 5 and I think it's just because I had mixed emotions at first. It's a little too corporate, I suppose, and since it's pretty much the only theater in town that you know for sure is going to have movies first released in limited theaters, it's going to be packed. I can't really fault it for that.
I'm not sure what it is, but I've never been too crazy about coming here. The smaller theaters? I dunno. Maybe it's because what I really want is an independently run theater that allows me the opportunity to get a chance to see 127 Hours or Moon when it's still fresh and brand new?
That would be the dream, but until then, this theater is AMAZING to have around. Plus, I get to use my loyalty cup for $1 sodas, so the whole conglomeration thing isn't all bad. If you're excited about a movie coming out, but you know it'll either take a few months to make it to more mainstream movies, or maybe even fizzle out and appear on DVD, this is your go-to place (A Serious Man, The Maid, Son of Rambow, Broken Embraces, Black Swan).
Watch out for olds! They'll take forever at the box office and sometimes when you get up to pee, you'll have to old the door for like six fogies.
