The Mid Rivers Mall 6 opened with the mall opening and was operated by GCC. When GCC left the St. Louis market, Wehrenberg took over the theatre. When the mall was remodeled and the food court moved in 1996 the theatre was renovated and expanded to 14 auditoriums and became the Mid Rivers 14 Cine'.
Wehrenberg did a great job on the decor and the comfort of the patrons. Most auditoriums are stadium seating and stereo sound in all auditoriums. St. Charles county being the fastest growing county in Missouri easily support both the Mid Rivers 14 and the St. Charles 18.

General Cinema opened as a 6-screen in December 1988.
The Mid Rivers 6 was closed in March 1999.
The new Mid Rivers 14 opened December 10, 1999.
If GCC opened the 6 screener in Dec 1988, this means it was in GCC’s hands for less than a year, since Wehrenberg bought out the remaining GCCs in 1989. Do I have that right?
This will take you back…I remember playing soccer on a field that was near the site for Mid Rivers Mall. This was in the late 70-early 80s and, at that time, there was no Mid Rivers Mall. It was just a big empty field. Still can’t believe it used to be that way not so long ago.
I’ll take ya back further…I remember when I-70 (the highway, not the drive in) wasn’t there.
I know the family who owned the property the mall sits on.
Funny-I’ve never been in that theater, yet I live within walking distance.
There is a small picture pf the theater’s mall entrance here: View link
Since the Mid Rivers 6 opened in December of 1988, would that make it the last General Cinema theater that opened in St. Louis?
I loathe going to this theater, especially on a Friday or Saturday night. Yikes! Nothing but young kids being disrespectful and foul-mouthed. It has definitely gone down hill in the last 10 years.
@littlelamzie: Actually, it’s not much different from when I went there on Friday nights in 1990!! That was when the theater only had 6 screens and the kids were loud and disrespectful then…maybe not foul-mouthed, but they still ruined the movie experience because they just wouldn’t shut up!! I’ve found the St. Charles 18 to be far better…
This has been my theater of choice since the early 90s. Never went to it when GCG ran it.
Having to use a wheelchair since the late 90s, I remember the old entrance, before they expanded it. They had a wheelchair lift to get down to the auditoriums. Sometimes, you had to wait for someone to operate it after the showings.
The best time to go here is before noon, when the shows are cheap. ($6 currently.)
