First class adventure, very at home experience ( careful where you park even on sundays, avoid the little permit only streets)

Pros: service, atmosphere nice

Cons: parking

4 Star Rating: Recommended

The Vista is a historic theater in the Silverlake/East Hollywood area that has been restored with roomier seats and an updated sound system. This is how I remember what going to the movies was like as a kid. One theater showing one movie (or sometimes a double feature) . I'd rather watch a movie here than at some generic multiplex.

We went here on president's day and this is my new favorite theater. Say no to the multi plex and yes to the vista. Our city needs places like this to thrive, don't let it turn into a pinkberry!.

Pros: leg room, screen, ambience

Cons: parking

I love going to the Vista. The atmosphere is very laid-back and casual. There isn't a herd of people trying to get in and out of the theatre like at the AMC's. There are two great bars within walking distance including the Tiki Ti and the Good Luck bar. Both are really relaxed, intimate places. We love to have a drink then walk to the Vista and enjoy a great movie. We saw the Matrix this weekend and the sound effects rumbled my chair! It's a great night out.

Pros: decor, sound, atmosphere

Cons: parking is manegable, just one movie

A classic old Hollywood theater from the 20's. It's has legroom for a basketball team.

Pros: Legroom, Sound

i recently came here for the first time and was blown away - especially coupled with the fact that i saw "the two towers" here. the egyptian art deco interior is amazing, the high ceilings and general feel of the place make it a very enjoyable experience. a definite plus on the seeming 5-foot wide leg area. i don't know what admission is like (the date paid!) but i'm sure it's much less than at the arclight, and definitely more worthwhile. the parking situation is not the greatest, but whatever. check it out.

Pros: beautiful, spacious

Cons: parking/lack thereof

There are a few negatives concerning the Vista but nevertheless I marvel at what has been done to the interior. Not enough can be said for the spacious seating arrangements. Everyother row of seats have been removed leaving lots of leg room. Now if only the seats were better. The interior is worth the price of admission.

Pros: low prices, great interior, roomy

Cons: bad seats

Real seats, realy neat egyptian deco, this place has lots of character. A statement usualy reserved for a dorky date. But the sound system is great, the screen is big enough. The seats are great and even though it plays top movies it's often not packed. I come from Burbank to go there and it's worth it.

Pros: Apnosphere, Not crowed, A/V is great

Cons: Parking, a bit out of the way

This is definitely the movie theatre equivalent of flying first class. It's a small, intimate movie theatre with quiet crowds and amazing leg room. A little bit on the theme park side due to the decorations, but when they turn the lights out that doesn't really matter.

Pros: comfortable chairs, leg room, intimate size

Cons: only shows 1 movie, long lines, parking is sketchy

A beautiful theater, very large and great sound system. Just did some renovations so the legroom is great and the seats are big and comfortable. It's only a single theater, so there's no chance you're going to hear what's going on in the next room. Great place to watch a flick!
