For our 16th anniversary event, we’ll make it a FUN one! We’ll kick things off with a Private Screening of the action/comedy NOBODY (one week ahead of the sequel) followed by a great dinner at HOFBRAUHAUS! One price covers it all: private film screening, a box o’ candy at the theater, and dinner at Hofbrauhaus (including app, salad, choice of entrée, drinks AND dessert)! Plus, tons of door prizes and more! Space is limited and pre-payment required! Don’t miss out! RSVP as soon as possible to secure your spot! Here are complete details:

NOBODY: We’ll kick things off with a Private Screening of the 2021 action-comedy, NOBODY! An unexpectedly fun romp and a huge hit with the group in 2021, we’ll revisit the film to wrap up our 16th Year before checking out the sequel one week later! The film follows a mild-mannered family man who returns to his former life of an assassin after he and his family become the target of a vengeful crime lord. Nobody stars Bob Odenkirk, Connie Nielsen, RZA, Aleksei Serebryakov and an outstanding Christopher Lloyd! Critics call Bob Odenkirk’s performance, “a masterclass in balancing humor, heart, and holy-crap-he-just-did-that energy.” Film Critic World says, “Go watch Nobody. Crank up the volume, cheer for Hutch,” and enjoy this “unexpected, delightful” romp that “will leave you grinning!”

DINNER AT HOFBRAUHAUS: Immediately following the movie, we’ll head to Hofbräuhaus, located a short distance from the theater at 800 Goodale Blvd. Hofbräuhaus is a traditional Bavarian beer hall and restaurant, famous for its German food, beer and lively atmosphere. FREE parking is available in the lot near the restaurant. You’ll probably beat me there, so once you arrive, head inside and let ‘em know you’re with the Columbus Movie Group!
