Great, unique place to take your date to, or kids. I love the vibe here but the only reason I'm giving them a four star review instead of a five star is because I signed up for their eNewsletter and they sent me like one email a day. And I don't like that.

Interesting niche movies with a good local vibe. The first Friday of every month, they have first Friday shorts, where they show a series of short films made by local filmmakers. One film wins a prize, which is decided by the audience. Terrible films get "gonged", the equivalent of getting booed offstage. If the volume of people yelling "gong" during a bad film reaches a critical threshold, they bang the gong, stop the film, and move on to the next one. Critiquing at its rawest, and it's fun to be a part of.

Buy tickets online! I went on a Sunday night and the movie was sold out. I thought there was no way it would sell out, but I was wrong. Love this theater though, always has beautiful independent films and lots of special events. Lots of interesting concessions options as well. Cool patio to hang out in until your movie plays.

The Loft shows movies and documentaries not shown at other cinemas. The lobby is full of old movie posters. The theatres are comfortable and the whole place has a laid-back atmosphere, it's a fun place to visit.

Always a great time at the loft! They show unusual movies, often things you can't see anywhere else. I especially like Mondo Monday were they show you a really terrible movie and you're invited to Heckle it. I'm in my second year of membership at the theater. Membership gives free popcorn and discounted admission. There is lots of fun to be had at the loft!

My favorite movie theater but, alas, no screenings in person for me these days. In the meantime they offer some great films to stream and the best pandemic-season t- shirt of 2020. Get yourself an "Intermission, Please Stand By" shirt to show your support.

The Loft is the best place for: indie movies, short films, film festivals, summer kids' activities, cult classics, director and actor movie series, late night grindhouse, and everything else you can think of related to film. And some of that they bring to you without having to go to them!

Best place in town to catch classic films, cult favorites, or just oddball flicks that fly under the radar. Great prices with a great snack bar. The new seats might be the most comfortable of any theater in town, to top it off.

Saw Repo Man here, visiting from Seattle. What a nice setup! The moment you step into the theater, it's straightforward and to the point. The theater's huge, the quality is great, and the people working there are just awesome!

Perfect experience as always! You can tell they really enjoy their jobs there, and I'm sure having Kevin Smith and Jay Mewes hanging out all night doesn't hurt that enjoyment level! Good snacks, good soda, good atmosphere, and the size of that screen! Highly recommended!

I was also a witness to a man trying to warn the Loft about a guy who was acting suspiciously. The manger just kept saying that he knew the guy and it was alright. Then he told the man if he didn't like it he could leave. The man said he'd been going there for years and would never return. The manger just said, "that's fine." Not sure what went down after that but the man and his kids left a minute later with some bearded guy following him out in to the hall.
Seems like the management really didn't take this seriously. I'll never go back and neither will my son or daughter.

I'm SO IN LOVE WITH THE LOFT! This is what Cinema should be! Political and social commentary, insights and lessons on what it is to be human and what it can be to be human, ridiculously fun stuff like Little Mermaid sing-alongs and effing fantastic movies like Donnie Darko and Goonies! Anime wonderfulness -- OMG, Howl's Moving Castle! I think there's a Firefly marathon coming up? And then on top of it they have actual butter on their popcorn if you want! Plus, members get free popcorn, and they offer a free member showing every month! And discounts at various art theaters across the country! (I consider it my duty for myself and my family to have a membership!) It's so very Tucson, and it's one of our treasures.
