this is an indie theatre, its not a loews multiplex or the IMAX at lincolin centre. yes, the theatres are smaller than what we normally expect in our larger than life consumer driven buffet feeding american lifestyle. yes occasionally you can hear the subway rumbling but it gives it that gritty industrial feel and doesnt take away from the sound quality of the movie. the only cons are the cafe is insanely expensive, prepare to dish out four bucks for a fiji water and over three dollars for a tiny diet coke in the old glass bottle. also the tickets cost as much as any regular city theatre at 10.75 but i rather spend it on a good movie than some hollywood blockbuster that you can get on netflix anyway. i have a great time at the angelika, so give it a shot before reading reviews and having them cloud your judgement. also, i have to say i dont know why people were complaining about the bathrooms being gross. have you never had to use the bathroom at lower east side bar? it was def better than the bathrooms at max fish or piano's. and you dont judge a theatre by the bowl anyway. go see a movie at the angelika, see half nelson. see who killd the electric car? see the illusionist. and judge for yourself.
Pros: greatn films
Cons: expen$ive concessions
