The owner is awesome. You get great prices and great deals. You feel like he is committed to community and people over making a profit. He has always been kind and courteous when I have done business with him. You get the impression that the community backs him up just as much as he does for the community. He reminds me of a museum owner trying to preserve the past. The theatre is preserved in time.if you go a little early you get the treat of home movies of yrs past. Sometimes you get a greeting from the owner with a delightful fact about the movie. When the movies changed so did the projection methods. The theatre has modern projector equipment. I have watched several movies at this theatre and I love the atmosphere. But I am most glad to see the owner doing something that he seems to enjoy. He also owns the 99w drive in. It is equally awesome.

This is a theater from the 1930s. Still has the original paint and lighting inside, and you can see the old movie projector upstairs. Updated with surround sound and a new screen. Sit in the back in the loge seats- they have removed every other row of seats and replaced them with a brass foot rail. Those seats rock and are very comfy. I have been going to this theater for close to 30 years, and have loved the way it has evolved and been updated without losing the original 30s deco charm.

If you want an old school cinema experience, visit the Cameo. It has one theater, a simple concession stand and retro box office in the front. To keep prices low, the Cameo does not screen new releases unless they are anticipated to be big hits, like the "Harry Potter" series or "Lord of the Rings." As you sit in the small theater seats and look at gilded decor that could use some polishing, you feel like you are truly participating in an American tradition.

This definitely isnt the nicest theater. The sound system is old, the seats are worn and the floor lights are to bright. But the seats are comfortable, there are awesome vintage touches, the tickets are cheap, and where else can you go where the owner comes out before the movie and welcomes you? Personal touches, like showing the rare Star Wars Christmas special before the new Star Wars make it well worth the price of admission!

Great prices. Obviously they arent going to have the best seats, projectors or sound but everything is more than adequate especially for the price. Unlike most older theaters they also play new releases. Its worth it to get to the theater early to watch their strange collection of old footage from the area including commercials for businesses long since closed.

Classic, well-maintained 50s style movie theatre. One of the earliest to offer "Loge" seating - removing a few rows of seats to create a few with extra legroom. One of the first movies I was old enough to see there was Jaws so, yes Im old. Same owner runs one of the few remaining outdoor theaters in the country located in Newberg. Try to check them both out.

Historic Theatre, neighborhood feel. Family owned w/ tlc. "while you are waiting" films include 50 year old parade footage and 1940s and 50s commercials. Cash only. Interior seating not yet restored, so you need to go early to find a seat that is comfy!

A great community theater offering a small but promising selection of large movies consistently at reasonably comparable prices for tickets and cheaper than normal concessions. Also very comfortable seating.

The best part about this place is the price of admission. The historic look is authentic. The picture and sound are an upgrade. The seats could use some upgrading.
