Review Summary

Cinéma Moderne is widely regarded as a charming, intimate destination for film lovers in Montreal, offering a curated selection of repertory and independent movies in a cozy, aesthetically pleasing setting. Many patrons praise the personalized experience, including brief, insightful film introductions and the convenience of having an on-site café and bar that serves drinks and snacks. While the atmosphere, cleanliness, and friendly staff contribute to a positive experience, common criticisms include the high price point for refreshments, rigid ticket policies that prevent exchanges or refunds, and discomfort caused by the current theater seating. Despite these drawbacks, the venue is frequently celebrated as a unique neighborhood gem that provides a respectful, distraction-free environment for enjoying classic and niche cinema.

I love this place. The smell of coffee during a movie for me > way better than those big cinema places. I also love that i can experience' old' movies on a big screen for the first time, like Princess Mononoke in Japanese ! Super cool. The employees are always nice too. The latte is pretty decent too. Popcorn was good last time I went

Fantastic intimate cinema that shows art house, classic & cult movies. Only has 54 seats & I suggest you book early to avoid the front two rows.

Best collection of independent films in Montreal. I love coming here spontaneously to see whatever is showing.

Great beers on top, pretty good coffee, I always grab a big bowl of popcorn.

Be on time to the film, they're not so accommodating for late arrivals. The film starts immediately, no commercials.

Best rows are the two farthest back (F & G). Even the middle rows you still look up a bit at the screen.

Be aware of the language designations:

VOA - English audio, no captions
VOF - French audio, no captions
VOSTA - original audio, English captions
VOSTF - original audio, French captions

J'aimerais venir à cinema moderne pour une première fois mais par contre il a toujours pas de films que je recherche. J'aimerais demander aux gestionnaires d'afficher des films chinois version cantonais. À mon avis, pour aller chercher les nouveaux clients, & pour cinema moderne soit le cinema avec la spécialité des films du monde : il serait important aussi de diversifier les actress langues. J'espère que l'administration retient compte de mon avis. Je mets pour l'instant 3 étoiles. Par contre lorsque j'aurai la chance de vivre une première experience je vais propablement soit modifier cette avis ou ajouter un autre avis. Merci à l'équipe.
