ArcLight Hollywood

ArcLight Hollywood review

A Hollywood favourite since 2002, the ArcLight offers comfortable seats, state-of-the-art sight and sound, fantastic snack bars and, for some Dionysian indulgence, an in-house café-bar. The programming is an astute mix of first-run flicks, indies, foreign fare and premieres; unusually, alcohol is allowed in some screenings. It's the most appealing modern multiplex in LA, but it falls under the 'Classic' section for the Cinerama Dome, a fabulous and unique domed movie theatre that opened in 1963. Note that parking is usually a nightmare: allow plenty of time to find a space, and don't expect to escape quickly.
