The real time warp at this retro neighborhood theater doesn’t come from the posters of bygone screen icons around the compact lobby or the Tron-era graphics that appear during the preshow warning to keep quiet. Rather, it comes when stepping up to the single outdoor ticket window, where admission runs only $6.50, all day, every Tuesday and Thursday. The discount also applies to shows before 5 p.m. on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and the first shows before 2 p.m. on weekends. And even a full-price ticket is $9.50, $1.50 less than the nearby Court Street megaplex. The films are largely independent, with some family stuff thrown in, so there’s something for everyone.

Best Cheap Movie Theater

Our mission this year: to hunt down not just the best but the best values in the eating, shopping, drinking, and general-consuming universe of New York. It’s quite the process, this, requiring eating and shopping and drinking (all in the name of research), followed by heated but civil discussion, and heated but less-civil discussion, until a winner emerges in each category.
