- June 18, 2013"This is definitely our theatre of choice in the area. The parking is relatively easy, it is always quite clean, the staff is kind and patient, and the movie times are always plentiful and convenient. I LOVE the TRex theatre! We tend to hit up the matinees with the kids and we have never had to wait very long for tickets or concessions. "- mommasboys

- January 24, 2013"I personally love this theater because it is very large and located right in the essex shopping plaza, so its a one stop shop for shopping and a movie. I recently took my son to a movie. I was frustrated because the amount of people at the theater and they only had one ticket booth open. We had to wait in a very long line, then another long line at the consession stand. Being 20 minutes early, we ended up still missing the very beginning of the movie. It would be helpful for them to have more staff. Other than that, their prices are reasonable, food is good, seats are comfortable, and they even have a few arcade games to distract the kids while parents wait in line for tickets and food."- mommyof3

- August 16, 2011"This is our favorite movie theater. Parking is much easier than other theaters in the area. The seats are comfortable and it is not a problem if people sit in front of you. Everyone in the family can still see!!"- theknapps01
- January 19, 2011"The new Trex theatre lives up to its namesakebig! Not sure how many seats, but hundreds for sure. We had a hard time choosing where to sittoo many options. And they're leather too. Seats are comfortable and plenty of room in the aisle. The 3D glasses were comfortable for the adults and kids. Only small complaint is that the bathrooms are on the opposite side of the building so you may miss an extra scene or two if you need to use them. And the 9.25 ticket price for a child is a questionable premium."- ceb

We saw a Sunday afternoon matinee there and found the prices to be a little cheaper than else in Chittenden County. Also worth noting they offer discounts for certain local employees IBM, Fletcher Allen, All Banks, General Dynamics and for guests and employees of Smuggs. Check their web site for which days and if their are any restrictions."- missmagpie
