Open on March 28, 1986. It was operated by United Artists Theatre Circuit. I had nine screens, theatre 5 the big house had Dolby Stereo. The other 8 screen were MONO.
UA in the mid-1980’s did not spend a lot of money on equipping all the screens with Dolby Stereo, the other big chains like AMC and Cineplex Odeon cared on how people heard the sound in the movies that played in their cinemas.
Theatre closed in 2002.

Current use should be retail.
I am super confused by this ad because I used to live just west of University Blvd in a brand new apartment complex off Pines Blvd and lived maybe 2 miles from this movie theater. I distinctly remember it opening in the Fall of 1985 because I would go there all the time. I remember the movies I saw there, and I also remember they had dollar nights (maybe Tuesdays). I saw Day of the Dead, That Was Then, This is Now, Re-Animator, Ginger and Fred, and then later on in 1986 I saw several others such as Back to School, Ruthless People, Running Scared, Legal Eagles, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off… Did UA maybe take it over in ‘86? I would bet my life it was open earlier than that.
I also worked at the movie theater that was mid-way between University and this multi-plex. It was a single screen theater that was a 2nd run house and it also housed a video store and restaurant. The theater had table service. We opened in the late Fall of ‘85 when I was a senior in high school and I worked there for about four months. I can’t remember the name of the theater but it was owned and operated by the same couple who owned Neighborhood Box Office (video store) in Pembroke Pines. This was their 2nd location. It was a great idea and fairly innovative for the time and place (table service in the theater) but the owner picked really shitty movies and I think went out of business in less than a year.
