The Theatres at Canal Place

We find that the Prytania Theater is a very nice place. The theaters are large enough and the seating is very comfortable. The concessions and bar are also very good. The staff is a little less than enthusiastic about helping people. Overall this is a very good spot to enjoy a movie and we like coming here.

Enjoying a private cinema to see the Oppenheimer film. "A story from my current Life experience since I am going to observe the Oppenheimer film. As You are all aware the nuclear age started at the University of Chicago. I graduated from the U. of Chicago in 3 years with a degree in Chemistry in '86 before I graduated from DePaul University with a Juris Doctor degree in '90. Professor Nathan Sugarman who worked on the Manhattan project was my honours Chemistry teacher. The place was and is teeming with this planet's greatest quite unconscious minds. How did/does the University of Chicago and all other major Universities around the planet fail their students and HuManity? Answer: They fail to provide courses in Metaphysics, namely, how this 3D realm really works. In fact, I have to say that the administrators there are pretty stupid. Why? When I returned to Chicago a few years ago after my European travels, I met with high level administrators there to establish a new University department, the Czeslawa Ziarno Department of Metaphysics in memory of my Mom. The deal was to provide a 40 million USD endowment for the new department. The University proposed allocating funds to existing departments. I said NO. Hence, no deal for them. Butt, I know how the Law of Attraction/Creation/Vibration works as did Nikola Tesla now reincarnated, Einstein and Heisenberg. So this new department manifests at the perfect time. My sister, Diane Ziarno, is also a U. of Chicago graduate and currently a high level executive there. She is named President of the University at the perfect time. Why is it imperative that students know about and master the use of The Laws of Attraction/Creation/Vibration? Answer: These Laws explain everything Yes, I said EVERYTHING You experience in Life. What the unconscious call 'random events' are actually experiences YOU HAVE CREATED, unconsciously or deliberately. There are many Conscious Life Coaches who can teach You how to master and use The Laws. Use their services. They are priceless." W.

I went in July, the day the Barbie movie was released. I called beforehand to inquire about seating. I had two little girls with me and wanted to make sure they would be able to sit next to me. I was informed that I had to come in and get the tickets and that it was best to come a little earlier as seats are first come first serve. So I asked what if it was sold out by the time I made it. She said, “We don’t usually sell out.” When I got there, there were quite a bit of people but no long lines or anything. I walked near the concession area and a man asked me if I had a ticket or needed one. He asked what time and how many. I told him the time that I had discussed with the lady on the phone. He said it was sold out but they had two times available, around 9 and 10. I found it hard to believe that they wouldn’t sell out when she told me that but I went with it. Maybe they didn’t plan to sell out. It’s 6 pm so I turn to my friend and ask if she wanted to wait that long. Before I could turn back to him and give him an answer, he tells us to take our conversation elsewhere and fans his hand at us. There was another employee sitting next to him. I looked back shocked like “Is that really how you talk to customers?” The other employee said nothing. I don’t usually leave reviews but that was very rude. At that point, I was over it. We took the girls to another theatre. It’s a very nice place but the customer service is horrible.

This is a super cool little theatre in the mall. I really wanted to visit the main Prytania theatre, the Broad, and Zeitgeist, but only had time to visit this one in my trip timeline. Loved the seating layout, although the seats weren't as comfortable as recliners, and the screen and sound were good. It was a little drafty and you could hear the building shift at times, but the movie I saw was a ghost story so I think it worked with the overall experience of it. Really cool video wall too- I used to be on a Rocky Horror shadow cast so was cool to see that whole setup

Cute little theater but would not really recommend for large groups. The theaters are too small to accommodate more than 6 in a row. Customer service was nice though.

The snack selection sucks. The nacho cheese for the nachos is horrible.The choices were much better before the change over. I miss the flat bread pizza, charcuterie and cracked pepper Parmesan popcorn.

Love the smaller size of Prytania Theatre at Canal Place. Makes it quieter and cleaner as it is likely faster for the staff to clean. It has extremely comfortable seats and a nice amount of space between each row. It could have been a little darker, however. The staff was wonderful, swift,, and to the point with queries. I do recommend Prytania Theatre at Canal Place and have already been over the years several times and name changes later

It is fine but the AC stopped 3/4 through the movie. It the heat index is 108 outside. Not a pleasant experience but I didn't say anything to management so I guess I am the fool here.

Great movies, popcorn is delicious and tastes fresh. I've been coming here for a few months now, and some of the screens have small dots or discoloration. Not too noticable unless it l the scene is really bright
