Formerly Lexington Flick, this cozy independent theater was recently purchased by a new owner and in March 2010 it was renamed as Lexington Venue. Built in 1915, the theater has recently completed renovations. It includes new seating, and now shows more first-run movies. Lexington Venue is located in the heart of Lexington Center on Massachusetts Avenue. The movie theater recently was used as the backdrop for a scene in the Mark Whalberg film, The Fighter.

My high school decided to host a film festival at the Venue and the school's film club organized the entire event by themselves, including the ticket sales, the advertisements, and other logistics. Film club members had to personally donate a large sum to make the even happen. However, upon attending the actual film festival, every single member in the club was forced by the Venue owner, Peter Siy, to pay full price for admission. How could he make high school students who organized the whole thing pay for their own admission to their own event, and pocket all the profits himself? Needless to say, the Venue deserves NEGATIVE stars for their attitude and treatment of its local customers. I do NOT recommend supporting this kind of cheap, un-professional business.
