Place looks great! New owners have put in a lot of work! Seats are comfortable - sound was clean - Keep up the good work!
I would have given this 5 stars if the screens were bigger, but since they offer movies in both 3D and 2D options, I prefer 3D, I am still giving it 5 stars. The owner is a great guy, and very friendly, and cares about his customers. Since he's owned it he's been steadily improving it. It is just a great experience, so that gives it the 5 stars too. All tolled, that adds up to 10 stars.
Workers are always friendly. Snacks are good & reasonably priced (for a movie theater). It's a bit small (something you can't help), but I just wish there would be 30 minute intervals or longer before movies so we could get seated before the movie starts, rather than waiting in the packed lobby & getting passed by people who get there last minute.
They’ve updated this theater quite a lot and did a great job.
Spacious and comfortable seats, friendly staff, and $8.50 for a matinee ticket. They aim to be the Keene community theater.
Great screen quality and sound, too! Highly recommend!
Kudos to the new management team. Website rework has improved. Counter staff is knowledgeable and polite. Like the cleanliness all around.
Popcorn is fresh, candy still pricey. Overall improvements well accepted.
Loved the seats they were incredibly comfortable, even for the 3 hour long movie. Only downfall was the listing for the movie I wanted was still advertised on the billboard But hasn't played for some time.
It's really amazing how much the theater has improved over the last year. Prices have lowered, they take card now, the 3D is much clearer, and it is way cleaner than it has been in years. While there's still room to improve, just seeing the amount that's changed in such short time tells me that it's only a matter of time before those little problems are worked out as well. The new owner has really managed to turn the place around!
Plus, you can never go wrong with a movie themed arcade. It's the little things that count.
This theater is under new ownership, and I see strides in the right direction every time I go there. And from conversations it sounds like they plan on making the place even better than they already have! It's nice to have a theater moving in a great direction. Keene has needed this for a long, long time.
Took my wife to see a movie that she wanted to see for quite some time. This movie theater has been the exactly the same since the 1980's! Definitely is in desperate need of a renovations!
Comfortable seats, lots of leg room. Great movies! I would give them five stars but they are cash only so only four stars. ATM machine next to the ticket window sometimes runs out of money.
Keene cinemas as been, for a long time, a pretty slimy place to go. It's been around forever and it showed. With the outdated theaters, over inflated prices, and a pretty grimy and dirty building, one couldn't help being disappointed with it. But under new management, things are starting to change. Ticket prices have gone down, payment options have expanded, and the theaters are slowly being worked on, cleaned, and updated. As a local that's a big relief since it's basically the only theater in the area. So if you're looking to watch a movie and happen to be in keene, I would say try it out. It's not amazing, but it's come a long way and as long as you don't look too closely and focus on the movie you'll have a good time.
Edit 7/3/17: New Paint! Also they're in the process of upgrading the cash registers.
It's 2017. Thank you for allowing us to use debit cards. A small, yet huge, quality of life improvement for customers.
I have been a resident of Keene for my entire life. I have seen this theater that I love slowly decline over time. But the new owners are really improving things. I have been to the owners other theater in Springfield VT, and it was a wonderful experience. This is a real labor of love for him. I am excited to see what he does with Keene Cinemas 6 in the future.
Current updates:
Accepting debit/credit (finally)
New signage
Better movie selection
Price drop in 3D movies
New hot and cold air system
Repaint of interior
Pros:
Engaged and enthusiastic staff
Clean and well maintained
Interesting pop culture decorations
New and entertaining arcade games
New up to date website
Regular Thursday night early releases

Cons:
All the cons are leftovers from the ghosts of the past and are in the process of being removed in the upcoming months. There are plans to update the restrooms. Improve on the soundproofing between theaters. There is a new marque going up.
Overall I would say that there is still some room for improvement at this time. But, Keene Cinemas 6 is in for a bright future if they stay on course.
