Madison Art Cinemas

Great movie, sad but true. Very comfortable seats and viewing area.

2 screen theater. Arnold and his team are very personable

Arnold is a person of excellence in every aspect. I had the privilege of working for him years ago, and learned a great amount from him. This cinema is truly charming and one of the shoreline's greatest cultural treasures.

Am amazing cinema place. Very quiet and clean. It had Dolby 7.1 sound system. The snacks and coffee counter is excellent. popcorn is really good. coffee is served in a cup and saucer. pretty cool. The staff is very friendly. They show many awards winning cinemas. both English and foreign films. If you get a chance to visit the place, you should go. Overall a great experience.

This cinema has a very "local" feel, unlike those larger chain cinemas. There's a very diverse selection of movies that you can't find in the large chains.

I am in the cinema exhibition industry and am a big fan of independent cinemas...and of the owner of the Madison Art Cinema...The playing of IRISHMAN is an insult to our industry and the support of NETFLIX as a distributor of motion pictures to cinemas is one of the worst business decisions that Arnold has ever made...I am disappointed he is playing the film. NETFLIX does want to play by the rules of cinema exhibition and to support them for the sake of one film...is terribly wrong.

Pleasant place to see good movies -- sound is too loud.

A very pleasant alternative to the multiplexes that have driven most independent theaters out of business.

5 stars for still being in business! Set smack dab in the center of town, the theater is "refreshing". It's not large at all but has a nice "small town" vibe. The titles they show are fantastic. The screens are "smallish" but proportionally speaking right in line with the "big boxes". Parking is challenging but you can use the "Post office" parking or Stop & Shop if it's too crowded. The town center is full of small shops including Olive Oil, Coffee, Books... It's worth it to arrive early or stay late to check it out.

Great place to see a movie. Interesting movie selections. Excellent espresso and other treats! Friendly staff. Convenient parking. Nice to have a small movie theatre nearby!

Staff was very kind and the seats were very comfortable! I also appreciate how they show independent films here

It's a nice two screen theater that shows interesting movies. The seats are comfortable and the concession area is good.

Nice theater! Clean lobby. Friendly staff! The acoustics are good. Good candy choices! No bad seats.

First time there and I found it to be quite pleasant

Fantastic arts Cinema. Owner (Arnold) is usually around and is wonderful!

My favorite theater - it's small and not a complex in a mall. Great movies, good popcorn.

Moved from Westport to Guilford two years ago and missed proximity to NYC and culture FF county offered...but then, discovered Madison Art Cinemas and Arnold's film club. It's a gem of a movie theater and Arnold's expertise and friendliness keeps us coming back for more and more. Thank you, Arnold, for running a top notch theater and creating a comfortable , enjoyable, entertaining environment for all of us movie enthusiasts!

Great arts Cinema right in downtown Madison. Plenty of parking in the immediate area and they frequently have films we are interested in seeing.

Great theater. It's very comfortable and has a great concession. It's wonderful to get a good shot of espresso and local biscotti at the movies. Thanks Arnold. You run a great place.

A nice small quaint theater, with its own sort of charm.

Cool movie theater that shows many excellent films. This is my favorite movie theater on the CT shoreline.

Delightful movie theater with comfortable seating and just the right atmosphere. No eating at your seat and so on. Really enjoyed the experience.

Great selection of films...many you can't find in large theaters!

Good to have some less mainstream movies available. Concessions are fine.

Love the movies shown at this theater
!

We love coming here. Movies you can't see anywhere else locally, and a friendly, movie-passionate staff.

Such a charming place to watch a film. It feels like you've stepped back in time...in a good way!

First at York Square Cinema and now at Madison Theater, I have appreciated opportunity to enjoy movies made for adults. Knowing that I can easily access a foreign language film, an indie filmmaker, or a movie from a lesser known director has been a real asset since moving to Madison. The Cinema Club has been another gift. Thank you.

Old fashioned STYLE THEATER
.good sound system
Cappuccino espresso GOODIES...

It is always a delightful experience to view a movie at the Madison Art Cinemas. Relaxing, comfortable, A/C not too cold, decent popcorn and volume levels appropriate for the theater sizes. Reminds me of the movie theater in a favorite date movie of mine from long ago "Summer of '42".

Young people today might call Madison Art Cinemas retro. I call them classy and inviting. Either way, expect to have a good time.

Friendly staff , excellent coffee! (Sometimes movies a little out there, but that is what makes the difference!!

I left my small bookbag and Jess found it. Thanks!!

Easy parking, friendly staff, senior prices (that's important too) and the best movies.

Great movie and a hometown movie house. We love this place.

Quaint theater in Madison. Not a big super cina-plex. Very intimate, friendly staff, nostalgic atmosphere. Highly recommend.

A wonderful theater. Always featuring interesting films. Run by a knowledgeable and thoughtful man.

The Madison Art Cinemas are a real Shoreline treasure. Kudos to the dedicated, hard-working and ultra-knowledgeable Arnold Gorlick.

A very rare Small Town Theater. Chose good first-run movies and art films. Food and beverage I reasonably priced for a theater

a nice place to see an indy film but the seating is not wonderful

This is the best movie theater ever. Arnold is truly a master. This is a place you do not want to miss .. truly a classic

love this place. Great artsy movies in an old fashion theater.

I like this theater but construction was going on during the movie. Very noisy and totally distracting. I feel they should have told us ahead about it and then at least we could have made the decision to wait and go another time.

So fortunate to have this cinema! Arnold shows films that would be missed otherwise. A true gem of the Shoreline.

Enjoyable are Cinema. We saw Green book, highly recommended

It is such a treat to have access to worldly films in an inviting movie theater and so nearby!
