Reminds one of the good old days of independent cinema theatres before the 1990s. Excellent repertoire & small, cosy hall. Particularly appreciated are the mini introductions to each film made by staff - super brief but they add a sense of personality.

It's great that they have a bar & mini cafe as well, & I would be happy to support it more if only the prices there were even somewhat more reasonable & friendly. The cocktails are painfully more expensive for what you get than even at fancy cocktail bars & something like a cortado is up to two dollars more than at any cafe. Yes, it's a premium offering & gives patrons somewhere to sit & wait for a movie but it leaves a sense of having been squeezed that taints an another highly positive experience there.

My first time here was to see Perfect Blue. Small & cozy place. The people working here are kind & even though I've seen the movie before & knew what to expect, I appreciate that they took the time to give a trigger warning in French & English before the film. It's a pretty intense film & not everyone is prepared for how heavy it becomes.

Theatre was very clean which I appreciate. My only issue is with the seats. Not super comfortable, & not much support. But I read in another review that's a WIP, so I'm glad they're working on that to ensure guests have a great experience :)

I'll definitely be back soon!

I had been looking forward to going back to Cinema Moderne after a few years. The movie we went to see was great, & this was not a surprise because they have a great film selection. Unfortunately, my experience was soured as, two key elements of movie going were lacking. There was no popcorn & no air conditioning, which because it was a Summer day, upon entering the theatre it just smelled like sweat. -- J'avais hâte de retourner au Cinéma Moderne après quelques années. La film qui nous sommes allés voir était excellent, & ce n'était pas une surprise car ils ont une bonne sélection de films. Malheureusement, mon expérience a été gâchée par l'absence de deux éléments clés d'une cinéma. Il n'y avait pas de pop-corn & pas d'air conditionné. Comme c'était un jour d'été, en entrant dans la salle ça sentait la sueur. En tant que cinéma indépendant, je souhaite qu'il réussisse, c'est pourquoi je n'ai pas donné trois étoiles.

It's a beautiful place but very small theatres! It has a cafe at the entrance & is nice to hangout after or before the film!
