I have visited Orleans Cinemas many times, mostly to watch South Indian movies. These days, only South Indian movies are released here — no local or Hollywood movies.
The screens, seats, and sound system used to be very old, and it didn’t really feel like a proper movie theatre complex. Honestly, I was never interested in watching movies here, but since South Indian movies are not usually released in bigger multiplexes like Cineplex or Landmark, I had no choice for some time.
I stopped visiting for a while, but recently I saw they were promoting that they renovated one of the screens with recliner seats and Dolby Atmos sound. So I visited recently to watch a South Indian movie in the newly renovated screen.
There is definitely an improvement — the sound system is good, and the recliner seats are better than the old ones. Of course, you can’t compare them to Landmark Cinemas, but still much better than before.
The rest of the theatre hasn’t changed much yet, but they told me more screens will be renovated soon. The restrooms are okay, not bad.
Overall, this time my experience was better than my previous visits. I’d rate this 3.5 stars if possible. I will adjust my rating again after...

The movie was free for Ottawa Telugu Association members, which was a great perk! I’m unsure about regular prices or amenities, but the theater’s focus on South Indian films makes it a great spot for the community.
The event was well-organized, and the staff was friendly. Overall, a...
