This is a very nice theater. The main theater is the best, so big & awesome sound. There are 2 smaller screens upstairs which are ok. The popcorn here is really good. Very good prices.

I liked the Historical value and the professionalism of the owner and staff. They made the Premier of Belleville The Movie (now "Neila") a success. I bow to them from the stage or any level. Rick Jey

The Lincoln theater is a Belleville landmark. The main theater is the best, there are two smaller theaters upstairs but it is a far walk to bathrooms and snack bar. Great value

I really like going to this theater. Very good prices and it's right on Main Street. Oh and not to mention it isn't a Wherenberg theater so no stupid annoying intro that everyone knows and hates if they have been to a Wherenberg theater. I think tickets are 8 bucks each at this time

The Historic Lincoln Theater has been around for a while.http://www.lincolntheatre-belleville.com/Matinee shows $5.00Evening shows $7.00The upper balcony was converted into two small theaters a few decades ago.The lower theater is larger than anything the new places provide.

This place has been a part of Belleville city history since 1921. Upgraded as the years pass, it's just as much fun as it was since the first time I visited there over 40 years ago to see The Exorcist! Prices are comparable to other indoor movies, still has a great selection of shows to choose from, still the same culinary amenities as in the past. A nice way to spend the afternoon, or an evening with your best buddy.

Legend has it that it is haunted. Ticket price is very good and the refreshments are not the typical arm and leg prices. Check out Abe's flavored popcorn. Pipe organ in main hall really works! Just very good value.

This is a great little theater, like stepping back in history. The show is clean, comfortable and the shows look fine.

We love the Lincoln Theatre and go here quite frequently. Cheaper tickets for the same movies the other theatres play, plus there are student and senior discounts. They are the only theatre in this area that offer pickles! Would recommend to anybody in town!

What did we like best? The organist who played music before the show began!!Where else can you find such a thing, in small-town America? In addition to the price of your theater ticket, you get a FREE CONCERT before the Saturday evening films.The theater has been preserved and is very large -- we wish it offered more special events, like the Wildey in Edwardsville. And we noticed there is a bit of riff-raff in the audience (talking loudly, roughhousing, etc).But perhaps that is because The Lincoln offers such low prices on tickets? We were pleased with our experience, and will go back on Saturday night, the next time we're in the area -- especially to enjoy the Organist. :)

Big main screen theater inside. They have decent priced matinees, and gourmet popcorn. Would be better if the sodas had free refills at the self serve fountains.

A great restored older theater. I go here often. Keep your Lincoln Cup & use it on later visits to receive $1.00 refills.

The Main Theater room is beautifully decorated with the original charm of days gone by - the upstairs theatre rooms are small and feel cramped; I wish they would offer one film and restore the entire theatre as it was originally and make use of the balconies. Maybe have plays and live performances.

We love the Lincoln theater! It is a restored antique of a theater. Lots of charm! They show 3 movies at a time- first run. Prices are the cheapest around- even for 3D.Special note--- come early for the first night's show and you can catch a concert on the extraordinary theater organ complete with bells and whistles (literally!)

I LOVE this theater! Old school, inexpensive, Abe's Popcorn and on weekends...ORGAN MUSIC!!! This theater is a must see if only for the organ music.
