Aero Theater — Local services in Virginia Beach

This theater is great for watching a movie, but the entire theater seems to be neglected. It starts with the movie Marquee which is unreadable, needs updating and maintenance, the cleanliness isn't that great and climate control is uncomfortable, either too hot or too cold. This should be a place where the military, retired, and families could have a place to retreat to and a moment of enjoyment.

It just seems the entire base is seriously lacking funds to make the military members want to come to and visit. Hopefully, NAS Oceana will become as vibrant as it once was in the '80s and '90s, it seemed after 9/11 the base slowly but surely started dyeing off, from the MWR, Hobby Shop, and NEX to the Landscape just seemed to be neglected, even to the enlisted to the officer's clubs, have died off.

Air conditioning was good. It was comfortable although very outdated, but this building is also used for lectures, so reclining seats would be out of the question. Folding armrest for cup holder was very nice. People working there were very nice. A good theater for active Duty and they're dependents, plus retirees and their dependents. Very reasonable cost with...

Great family friendly place to see a movie. The theater is not up to date like little creek movie theater but is clean and the staff is friendly. It offers a great value to seeing just released movies. Compared the the minimum of seeing a movie outside at $10, it cost $5 on base. Highly recommended and will be coming more often...
