    The theater is so cwl. Even if there is not a movie you want to see, just check the amazing Art Deco style and LOTR dwarf costumes.

    Best place to watch a film in Wellington hands down. They also screen classics now and then.

    Originally opened in 1928, and reopened in 2011 by Tania Rodger, Richard Taylor, and Jamie Selkirk. Really awesome cinema and artworks. Also had good restaurant attached.
