Best

There is nothing better than a cheap movie and a good selection. Brookdale * discount theatre is a blessing. You get to see hit movies for mere dollars. Tuesday night's 1.00 films...

Would rather watch at home if not for the kids. 9/11/2008

It's true. I have seen it. Indian food sauce all over the seat. If you're not careful, you will get it on your butt. Place is rather old and still smells after remodelling. I wish the management could do something about that stench. It is really strong for first-timer. Pros: ample parking space Cons: old bldg, smells and not really cheap more

A great budget theater! 5/26/2008

Who wants to pay $9 for a movie when you can wait and get it for $3! Why line the pockets of the liberal media elite when you can get by for less. Unless your conversation next week depends on having seen the latest movie or maybe being first to see a film at the office or among your friends is important then wait and see it here. Pros: Plenty of parking, great admission price, 60's atmosphere Cons: Rather old facility more

Great place to go for a cheap movie 1/13/2008

This place is great! Hey, can you really beat a $2 Matinee or $3 for after 6pm? It's not the Taj Mahal, but it's a decent place with decent movies and a decent price. And to the person talking about gravy...--Com'on! Seriously! The new owners seem to have done a nice job with the place. It also hasn't been overcrowded when I've gone, which is nice. And their new wesite is ww w .brookdalecinemas. com which shows all the current movies playing. Pros: Parking, $2 movies, small crowds Cons: Not the newest cheap theater but average more

Cheap theater...you get what you pay for. 8/28/2007

They are NOT showing ""only"" Indian (Bollywood) movies now - they are showing Bollywood movies on the weekends in addition to normal discount-theater movies. Yes, they HAVE been sold to new ""Indian-friendly"" owners, but intend to keep showing normal discount-theater movies since the Bollywood community in the Twin Cities can't support an Indian-only theater. Their website (brookdale8cinemas) is run by a 3rd party who lists ONLY the Bollywood movies showing there. You currently have to either actually go to the theater to find out other movie times or call their phone number for a recording of movie times. No website yet...but they say ""they're working on it"". Price went up to $3 after 6pm too...still $2 before 6pm though. Pros: Cheap movies & concessions Cons: Noisy audience, old equipment more

Terrible experience - do not go! 6/5/2007

The theater smelled like urine, so we left before the movie even started, but the smarty teenage so-called ""manager"" girl refused to give us our money back, ""generously ""offering two free passes instead. Like I'd ever come back to this dump. They ripped me off for $4. All in all a horrible experience. Don't go. Rent a movie or go to a real theater instead. They should really be ashamed of themselves for such appaling conditions and terrible customer service. Cons: Employees, Service, Atmosphere, Concessions, Hygiene, Sanitation, Cleanliness more

A good deal a fun night. 5/21/2002

There is nothing better than a cheap movie and a good selection. Brookdale * discount theatre is a blessing. You get to see hit movies for mere dollars. Tuesday night's 1.00 films will not lighten your pocket book, but lighten the load of being dissapointed in seeing a bad film. The theater manages to show an eclectic mix of films at once. It is great for the mood you are in. Parking is free and ample. The concessions are the best I have had in recent memory. Pros: Affordable, Good film selections, Friendly staff Cons: Avoid friday evenings more

    It's dark and boxy, with an unadorned Nixon-era institutional architectural style that's perhaps rarer these days than the vaudeville baroque of the '20s and '30s. The main...
