Closed January 20th, 2025 per CTV news.
“Cinemas Guzzo is closing two more of its locations in Quebec amid its ongoing financial troubles.
The company announced in a press release on Monday that two cinemas were permanently closed effective immediately: the Méga-Plex Marché Central, near Highways 15 and 40, and the recently opened Méga-Plex in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu.
“This extremely difficult decision is necessary to ensure the sustainability of our family business, following the challenges imposed by the global health crisis of recent years. This, despite all efforts by our team and collaborators to find solutions,” the release stated.
Vincenzo Guzzo, the owner and operator of Cinemas Guzzo, told CTV News those two locations were the ones that “lose the most money.”
“In the case of Marché Central, it loses in excess of $1.5 million a year,” he told CTV News.
“It’s [been] 14 months that we are in litigation with Marché Central and it’s the third time now that they’ve tried to cancel the lease … It’s like being served for divorce three times in a row. Eventually you’re going to say, ‘You know what, I accept, see you later.’”"
This theatre’s opening movies include War of the Worlds (La Guerre Des Mondes), Herbie: Fully Loaded (La Coccinelle: Tout Equipée), Bewitched (Ma Sorcière Bien-Aimée), Land of the Dead, Mr. and Mrs. Smith (M. et Mme. Smith), Batman Begins (Batman: Le Commencement), and L'Enquete Corse. Rebound opened on July 1.
