The Rio fought a genuine legal battle with BC's liquor board in 2012 so that you could sit in a cinema and drink a craft beer during the film. That is not a metaphor. It is a real thing that happened, and the craft beer is now legally yours to clink during the movie. This restored 1938 single-screener on Broadway and Commercial runs new releases alongside rowdy cult classics, live comedy, and the occasional audience-participation event where you are expected to be loud and wrong about the third act. It is gloriously un-corporate, which is exactly the right energy for a rainy night out. Steps from the SkyTrain, so no soggy parking negotiation required. Pick the movie, grab the pint, and let the Drive handle the rest of the atmosphere.
