Market Square Theatre offers an interesting mix of films, from second run showings of blockbusters to independent and foreign language films. The theater has changed much since it was built in the mid-80s, but there's no beating the $3 admission price and reasonably priced concessions. The quality of the popcorn is top notch. For an older theater, the sound quality is great.
This is such an affordable and enjoyable We're lucky to have this place. STOP bringing in your own snackssupport the theater so we don't loose it.
Didnt even know this place existed. Hidden off the main drag. Clean, low prices, with older type theatre seats that were surprisingly comfortable. (Sometimes the new recliner seats are TOO comfortable, lol).
Affordable, clean, quiet place to watch movies before they come out on DVD. Paying less than five dollars a ticket is amazing and you still get to "go out to the movies".
My son had missed the Ape movie so were delighted to find it on the big screen. The price is unbeatable, the popcorn is delicious, the staff warm and welcoming. The restroom is spotless, the cleanest public one I've seen in quite awhile. The screen and sound no different from newer venues maybe better.
Staff are friendly & helpful. Popcorn is fantastic! Movies are good & price is CHEAP!
Film is important to us and this is our favorite theatre in Madison. We love the laid-back atmosphere, the vintage seating in the theatres, the price of admission (!!!), and the snack bar is fun. The staff does a wonderful job. We appreciate going to the movies where it seems to be about the movie experience and not about soaking us for every nickel they can get before we leave. Even the audiences there seem more relaxed and appreciative of the films. We love Market Square!
Second best cinema in town (behind Point Cinema)!
Great place. Happy they upgraded to digital and stayed open. Last of a dying breed of 2nd run theaters. Allows us to catch those we missed on 1st run at a more affordable price.
Best space in the city! All respects. A jewel, here in Madison. See if you don't agree!
What a great deal, especially when you have a big family or bring your kid's friends along. Prices are unbeatable - 2 or 3 bucks a ticket! Who cares that the movies are 1/2 year old? For that price we can wait. Staff is friendly, facility is clean, regular seats - which is fine with me. All that fancy reclining drives me nuts, because they take up so much space that the only 10 good seats in the back are usually filled and you end up sitting in the front row. So overall VERY happy, that Madison got this theater!
Best movie value in Madison by a mile! Great concessions and staff who really care about their patrons. Go, you won't regret it!
