From the warmth of all who work there, the beautiful restoration of this classic theater, the great movies including the classics -- and of course the organist -- ahhh, this is the way to see a movie. Just remember cash only, and give yourself time to enjoy the ambiance before the move. More

An experience all by itself. Great, wacky, off-beat and classic films all get shown here. Time travel to an earlier age of glorious film palaces and enjoy some great cinema. Often a line for rare or one-night showings. Some good places to eat in the Castro before or after the movie. More

Thank God, the Castro Theater has not fallen prey to the greed and lack off substance "new money" can bring to a great historical landmark. Grand, formal and meticulously maintained, The Castro Theater reminds us of the wondrous days of ladies and gentlemen. More
