Going to a movie at a theater can now cost close to $30 for a family of four. If you don’t mind waiting an extra couple weeks, you can see a movie at the Riverview in Minneapolis, for the thrifty price of $2-$3. Occasionally they have a special event movie, or documentary series that costs a little more. Their website says they are the 21st Century Cinema Technology in a 1950’s Style Theater. 
Even the concessions are a bit more reasonable, and the best part is the popcorn, real butter on it! I have been to a few movies here where the audience claps afterwards. Quite the experience to find a place where people really enjoy the movies at the neighborhood theater.
