Reviews
"Such a nice place to catch a flick in a tucked away spot in Harvard Square. I enjoy the variety of films, friendly staff, classic aesthetic, and good prices. I went once to watch a yet to be released international festival thriller and I’ve been back multiple times since."
"Went to an afternoon showing on the Sunday of the Boston Underground Film Festival with my daughter. It was an hour and a half animated shorts collection my brother put together, and it was very interesting and entertaining. Lots of talent from these artists that my daughter appreciated as she's studying animation. The Brattle is an old style theater for those who haven't been there. No seats that tilt back or hold your drink, but they were comfortable to me for the hour and 40 minutes I sat in my seat. I know they show older movies here, so definitely a fun place to go for a date or night out. Also, it's right near Harvard Square, so there are plenty of places to eat before or after the movie. Definitely worth going here."
"Charming theater in a gorgeous area of town. I've been wanting to catch one of their showings of older sci-fi/horror flicks but have yet to have the opportunity. I did get to catch the annual Bugs Bunny Film Festival,however, which was a blast!"
"This is an excellent film house in Cambridge. The frequently show awesome doubleheaders of old-school cult flicks. Recently saw Mad Max Thunderdome here (part 2 of a Mad Max double feature.) Another fave was Brazil and 2001 Space Odyssey. Check the listings often! Olympic Otter"
"The Brattle is one of few remaining art house cinemas and you can feel 100 years of movie history when you watch a film there. They have an ever changing schedule so check the site to see what's on this month. They have the best popcorn and real butter, plus candy, soda, and craft beers. I enjoy the balcony seats."
