Standard multiplex theater with stadium seating. The picture and sound were fine, though there was some noise leaking through the wall from the screen next door. I showed up early and was punished with 15 min. of commercials. Also, previews began at the published screening time, not the film itself. So, if I go back there, I’ll aim for being a little bit late.

I wouldn’t say the Cine-4 has “budget pricing”. As of Feb. 2008, a matinee costs 6.50 and regular price is 9.00, really hefty considering that the surroundings are so shabby. Picture and sound are both mediocre. I was disappointed that the print I saw (of a first-run movie) was so beat up. On the plus side— they didn’t show any commercials or previews before the movie started. I haven’t been to the Criterion theater in New Haven, but if it only costs a dollar more for better screenings, I don’t see any reason to go back to the Cine-4.
