I'm going to get my one and only complaint about the Cinerama out of the way so I can get on to the good stuff: the parking situation sucks. Other than that, it is an amazing theatre, both visually and auditorially. The sound is brilliant; Lucasfilm certified (which is super hard to get) and the screen is magnificent. Whether you sit upstairs or down, you're stoked.

The Cinerama is a classic and by far the biggest screen in Seattle. They play the big blockbuster movies and seeing films here really is different that at your average theater. The best is if you can get tickets to an opening show of something you're really looking forward to. The fans that show up there are always so into the movies in the first few days. Seeing the Lord of the Rings films there was an experience I will never forget! It is important to note that if you go when there is a crowd, you will have to wait outside until about 10 minutes before the show is supposed to start and people start lining up very early, so plan ahead.

great screen/sound/atmosphere. But seriously, did they not even take into consideration our heads in those seats? The seats have that cool rocking motion (which kinda gets annoying and uncomfortable) but there's nothing to rest my head on, unless I squat WAY down in the seat (even more uncomfortable). Doesn't really matter much...I still like movies on that big screen! Almost as much as the IMAX

Big screen, nice sound, good choice in titles, but I find the chairs too small. Is it just me?

You can beat the Cineram for sheer size of screen - people lined up around the corner and camped on the sidewalk to get in when the Star Wars movies opened here. I don't think I'd go *that* far to see a flick here - but it is a great theatre with a huge screen. (Despite it's rather run down appearance from outside - the inside has been restored and is very nice.)

This theater has a huge screen which is great for action movies and for feeling like you are really there! It's a great experience that I believe was made possible by our favorite Seattle billionaire (ok it's a toss up) Paul A. It's in a good location too, close to downtown. Lines can be long though so get there early for popular shows!

I always get so excited when the film I want to see is playing at the Cinerama. The HUGE screen makes it feel like much more of an experience than going to the normal theatre. The only drawback is that they only play one film at a time, and often for very long spans of time. So if you've already seen say, Chronicles of Narnia, you likely won't be back for a few months until they change flicks. Regardless, make a point to visit the Cinerama. It's fabulous!
