This place is amazing. I feel like I received a cinematic education by coming here and just browsing the shelves, renting movies that I had never seen on a video store's shelf before. An incredible selection of foreign movies, music videos (all of the PALM Director's Series), VHS... They also carry mainstream new releases, so if you want to watch ""Garden State"" AND Ingmar Bergman's whole collection, you can do that. The staff generally don't offer help, but if you approach them, they will gladly assist you in finding or recommending. I actually moved away from Atlanta one year ago, but I think about this place all the time. Seriously.
Pros: movie selection, prices, hours

Movies Worth Seeing is the best movie rental place I've ever been to. Looking at it from the outside, you wouldn't think it'd be that good, but you step inside, and you realize that it's basically got literally every movie worth seeing. They don't carry every single movie, of course, but their selection is surprisingly good. They carry every recent release along with many classics and movies that are hard to come by at regular rental places. The prices are amazing too. Once you've been here, you'll never look at movie renting the same way again.

One of Atlanta's best kept secrets, Movies Worth Seeing is tucked into the lower level of a Virgina-Highland shopping center. Inside is row upon row of foreign and indie films (both VHS and DVD) both old and recently released. You can find the entire career of such greats as Francois Truffaut, Ingmar Bergman, Wim Wenders, David Lynch and many other great directors. The staff is knowledgeable and you can keep the movies for three nights. You could browse here for hours.

This place has movies I have wanted to see for years but could not find or did not want to pay the price for buying. I kept moving three feet down the isles, stopping, giggling like a child, picking up a movie, repeat...
Arrangement is slightly odd, but makes perfect sense for finding multiple movies for the same genre. Good rental policy. Good hours. Wish it wasn't 25 minutes away in the Highlands.
Pros: selection, selection, selection
Cons: location, hard to find

Movies Worth Seeing has been updating its DVD collection to include new releases as well as old favorites. The DVDs go fast, but come here often and you'll find what you want on the floor. This is one of those stores where you never run out of great movie options, and it's cheaper than Blockbuster!

If you start renting here, chances are youll leave Blockbuster forever. The movies are organized by decade, director and genre, so youll often chance upon something new that interests you. The staff is extremely knowledgeable about film; its almost a given that when I go to the counter with a movie, the employee has a recommendation based on my choice. And just because this store has a discriminating selection doesnt mean you can only rent artsy flicks. Ive rented everything from Legally Blonde to The Last Picture Show here.
