Fun “Retro” out and in. Staff warmly hospitable, variety of concessions, great prices for first run movies. A piece of Americana!
My family and I have gone to the Gibson on multiple occasions. I really love the look and feel of this theater inside and out. They show 1st run movies as well as live events. The prices on tickets and concessions is reasonable, and the interior is clean. The screen and sound system are also I'm great shape. The theater is in the heart of Batesville so you can see a movie and then go to the park or to dinner, lots of fun for a family outting.
Good old hometown theatre.
It's awesome I like that the movies play at one time.
It's nice to have a theater you can go to, the location isn't bad, but the bar next to it can get a little iffy. They show great movies, but it almost seems like they avoid some of the more popular horror, and violent action films. The theater is kept clean, but if you look you will see some areas that need improvement. They also do live shows here and there.
Best price for first run movies!
The Gibson is a single screen theater. They mostly feature the current family friendly recently released movie. Ticket prices are low, being $6 an adult and $4 for kids for evening shows. Concession prices are just as reasonable especially compared to chain theaters.
The projector was upgraded to digital back in 2014. The rest of the theater feels dated, but that is part of the charm. It is clean and exceptionally well maintained for its age. You can really see the love of the owner and staff in the upkeep.
Given the ties to community events like the yearly free Northern Express performance, I haven't been to any other theater in 2 years.
Prices are goodpopcorn is awesomethey use real butter. Nice old feeling with a current sound system.
I love this place. Small town charm, personal staff and very easy to find. It's priced very competitively and they usually play the #1 movie at the box office. They offer a very large selection of goodies, the popcorn is fresh and the theater is very clean and well maintained for how old the building is. The balcony is closed when I visited but I'm assuming it was because they were remodeling. The restrooms could be updated but they are clean and I think it goes with the overall charm and character of the building and history. Have been here a few times and I'm always looking forward to coming back!
