It was a wonderful afternoon, though I thought the movie sound volume was a little loud. It was nice to see the movie again, especially with an audience, and Cary Elwes's interview was fun.
My 13 year old and I both love this movie - what a treat to be able to see it on the big screen. The movie never disappoints and Cary Elwes was charming, funny and very entertaining. Lots of fun to hear some behind the scenes stories and some background on the movie/book that we weren’t aware of prior to this event. Definitely recommend!
This was such a fun, family experience. It was awesome to see the film on the big screen for the firat time and Cary had such funny and interesting insights to share. I couldn’t recommend this experience enough for any Princess Bride fans.
Only disappointment was the sound quality…hard to understand at times!
This was a jaw dropping experience for us. From the exquisite art deco architecture, to the in house organ player, the whole experience was phenomenal. Very clean environment, comfortable seating, and friendly staff. We will definitely be back again!
It was a great experience and we had good seats. I had trouble hearing parts of the movie and was still able to follow it. The staff was polite and helpful as we came in. One recommendation give size dimensions of ladies bags or purses so we won’t worry we have an oversized bag.
It was a great event! Got to see the movie again in a proper theatre with fans who also appreciated it and the liveliness of the experience! The Dread Pirate Robert in person was great! What more can you say, but "As you wish!" Have fun storming the Castle!
Easy to find location and tremendous service. A great event with movie fans clapping at their favorite scenes and quoting lines with the characters - "As you wish." The discussion after the movie was well run; moderator kept the flow going.
It was a really fun event. Cary Elwes is very funny and so talented. We thought that the interview would ha e been longer for the cost of the tickets.
My wife and I haven't gone to any type of event since COVID-19 hit. This particular evening was fantastic. Easy venue to get to. Plenty of available parking. 2 minutes walk from lot to NJPAC. Venue was easy to enter even with Covid protocols. Event was awesome. Cary Elwes was incredibly funny and delightful to listen to. Movie, of course, was brilliant. Great evening all around.
Interview was short and boring with few anecdotes. Could have been accompanied by some interesting visuals from the movie shoot. Barely any effort was put into this.
Nice wide seats, great sound system, modern , well organized, fantastic theater experience. Only MINOR con? seat could have used a bit more padding. Thats really it!
Thoroughly enjoyed thus event from beginning to end. Had a great meal at Nico's, conveniently located right on site, and adult beverages were perfect. The event started promptly and I loved the feeling of community as everyone was engaged in a common love for this movie. Cary Elwes was brought out immediately afterwards and was received with total love and admiration. His interview was entertaining and insightful. Would recommend to anyone who is a fan of The Princess Bride!
It was fun to see the movie on the big screen and relive the nostalgia, but the Q&A afterwards left something to be desired. The questions asked were milquetoast and doubtfully written by the audience. Especially since there were a huge bowl of questions left sitting outside the theater door, obviously untouched. Carey's stories were contrived and rehearsed. The event lacked genuine interest or intent. We left the Q&A section early.
...and this is one of them. It's amazing to watch the movie again in a crowd of like-minded PB fans who recite all of the famous lines and cheer in the appropriate places. This is followed by Cary on the stage for (I think) about an hour and a half, telling behind-the-scenes stories and talking about the cult status of the movie. If you are a PB fan and haven't yet read his book (As You Wish), you're missing out - it's a must-read. Highly recommended, go see this if you're a PB fan.
Event: Really enjoyed the experience of watching The Princess Bride and then hearing from Cary Elwes after the movie. He was such an interesting interviewee and he told such rich stories. The interviewer, Kurt Loder, was a poor interviewer - to the point where I was embarrassed for Elwes. It was as if Loder wasn't listening; the interview could have been an amazing conversation and instead Loder just went through a list of questions. Really disappointed in that aspect but Cary Elwes was a consummate professional and was able to keep the interview afloat. Venue: The theater should have had more bars open. Waited in line for 20 minutes for a bottle of water.
Yes, even nicer than Keanu! :) Great night. My only complaint was the prices were a bit high and the audience was recording during the movie (really??? Don't you own the DVD and probably the VHS tape, too?). The talkback was rich with anecdotes and Elwes was very aware of his audience and had some cool shoutouts.
