I love any movie at this theatre. You can look about and imagine how all the ld west movies which premiered here were. I can feel John Waynes presence,absolutely best Pop Corn anywhere? A true Wyoming treasure....

can't beat the prices for first-run movies. they've upgraded the sound and projection, why spend $9 for a movie when you can see the same thing a few weeks later for only $3?

My wife & I took our two little kids to this theater this week. The theater is old granted, but the atmosphere was nice and nostalgic. The screen was large and crisp and the audio was terrific (Surround High-def.). Because the theater is so old, the seats were a bit small, but what do you expect? The price was awsesome!... More

While the legroom was a bit cramped, the seats weren't all that bad, and the screen size and sound quality was very good. Would go again.

This is $1 theater, which means all movies are $1. The concession stand is great. Love the old time theater.

They have maintained this theater well and it provides a very affordable evening out. They have turned the balcony into a small theater. Seating feel cramped though.

Nicely designed and beautiful inside. This theater is larger than expected, once inside. Went to hear Doc Severenson and talk about great acustics! If you get the chanace go see or hear a concert in this fabulous theater.

A very old theatre. 40 years ago I used to go here for children's matinees during summer vacation.

The theater is very old, smells musty, and the seats are old, torn & low to the ground. Was very uncomfortable, not worth the reduced prices of the movie, which wasn't a new release anyway.
