Take-home Message: The VIP tickets are NOT worth it.
I recently arrived at this theater to see the movie we'd researched online. It turned out that the time we'd chosen was showing in the "VIP" Theater. Well, the VIP theater turns out to be about the size of a 1960's porn cabaret complete with what looks like a velvet curtain.
The VIP theater is an extra $7 over the normal price of the movie (so $20).
The GOOD: The theater is licensed, so you can order drinks and have them delivered to your seat. The prices are on the high end of normal, so not that bad.
The BAD: I've seen home theaters (OK, pretty nice home theaters) that are larger than this venue. It's the size of a closet (see the attached photos). Older sound technology...not industry standard even. The seats seem to have been replaced from the appalling photos, but they're still not especially comfortable or VIP.
Basically, I really resent being scammed into the VIP theater. So folks at home:
1) Double-check with the theater website itself that your showing is not VIP (Google won't tell you).
2) Don't go to the VIP showing unless you really want to drink during your show.
3) VIP is 19+ if for some reason you do go for it.
4) There's a Dollarama with a huge candy selection on Yonge. Coincidence, I think not!
Minor UPDATE: I wrote them feedback on their website. I got a very pro forma e-mail...I think they've heard complaints here before.
