This theatre was run by GCC and was bought by Harkins Theatres in 1993. It has since been remodeled and expanded to an eleven plex. Of the three multiplexes around Metrocenter, this is the only plex still open.
The Metro Center I II III were located inside the Metro Center Mall adjacent to the food court and ice skating rink on the second floor.
<<< “The Metro Center Cinema III opened in 1980” >>>
The Metro Center Cinema I-II-III opened several years before 1980. The mall in which the theater was located opened in 1973, and the theater opened shortly thereafter (either 1974 or 1975).

Officially closed. At one time Metrocenter Mall was one of the largest malls on the U.S. The mall closed in June 2020. The theater hung on almost 3 years after the mall closed, even discounting their admission to try to improve attendance. They finally pulled the plug. The mall and the theater will be demolished beginning later this year.
