Bored? Got a $1? Grab a Friend and Head to Cinema City!
If Thursday nights find you looking for something to do in Columbus, but you are strapped for cash, grab a friend and a buck and head over to Cinema City at the Brice Outlet Mall.

On Thursday nights you can see a second run movie for only 50 cents each. That’s right, 50 cents! Cinema City runs other specials as well, like $1 tickets on Tuesdays, summer movie specials for kids, and $2.50 tickets every other day.
Now granted, these are for the most part movies that are on their last run before heading to video. But sometimes a night at the theater is just so much better than watching a movie at home.
The picture quality is usually perfect, but you can’t complain much about the occasional time it’s a little grainy or the sound’s not exactly right when your ticket only cost you 50 cents. But to be honest, as long as it’s not too bad it can sometimes add to the fun.
The theater is in about the condition you’d expect for a place that was built in the early 80s. But it’s warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
Eat before you come if you want to keep it cheap though. With the exception of Tuesdays, when the cinema runs some $1 specials on small drinks and popcorn, the snacks are priced the same as every other cinema in town.
Parking is free and well lit.
Call 614-322-5500 to see what’s playing.
