1. Dolores Park Movie Night
Yet another unique and utterly enjoyable event for a unique and utterly enjoyable city. I'm on the fence about the "anti-vino" push though. On the one hand, I do enjoy a little something to help you warm up and relax. On the other hand, not…More »
2. AMC Loews Metreon 16
I don't know why, but I'm giving them 4 stars.
Maybe it's the arcade.
Or the location.
Or the row of two-person arcade games by the concessions (Shooting zombies...4 quarters. Shooting zombies alongside the one you love....priceless)
Or the huge, real…More »

I have been coming here for years and the improvements were well worth the wait.
However, I find… Read more »
4. Castro Theatre
This theater should be given some kind of award for nostalgia. Their commitment to a random stream of classic and cult movies are refreshing in a time when multiplexes are dishing out 10 new movies every two weeks (most of which garner less than a…More »
5. Century San Francisco Centre 9
San Francisco, CA 94103
(415) 538-8422
Category:
Cinema
Neighbourhoods: Union Square, SOMA
If it wasn't for the parking, this would EASILY be a 5-star multiplex.
Clean, safe, comfortable seats, always a 3-D option available...
Just make sure your date doesn't have your credit card when she ducks out mid-movie for the "bathroom". If she…More »
6. Balboa Theater
The screen may be smaller, and the seats may not recline or have the endless line of new cup-holders like some new multiplexes, but this theater is still my favorite in the city.
(1) 5 tickets for around $32? (that's about half what you'd pay at…More »
7. Century 20 Theatre
One Star for always showing the movie you want to see, very late at night, on a week night, when you are utterly utterly bored and there is nothing new on your DVR or HBO.
One Star for having popcorn seasoning.
Minus on star for CHARGING you for that…More »
8. Embarcadero Center Cinema
San Francisco, CA 94111
(415) 267-4893
Category:
Cinema
Neighbourhood: Financial District
My first choice for foreign and indie films.
If only i had more friends who LIKED foreign and indie films.
9. AMC Van Ness 14
San Francisco, CA 94109
(415) 674-4630
Category:
Cinema
Neighbourhood: Civic Center/Tenderloin
I think the only times I go here are when the Metreon show-times don't work perfectly.
Which is odd considering that the parking is cheaper (and you have a CHANCE at street parking here).
I guess it's just that there is really nothing unique of…More »
10. CineArts at the Empire
Sure, I've been going to this movie theater long before seeing Jurassic Park from the 15th row of the large theater on the left, but in reality, it's more a convenience than a top-tier movie destination.
Granted, they've done an excellent job adding…More »
11. UA Stonestown Twin
This place should have closed years ago. it has so much space though, and parking, and apart from Empire on West Portal (which has NO parking), is one of the few theaters in the area.
Why hasn't this place been bought out and renovated? Is it on an…More »
