Opened by Caprice Entertainment by 1982 as the Caprice Twin. The theatre seated 665, 372 in auditorium 1 and 293 in auditorium 2.
Sometime in 2009 the theatre was sold and is operating as an independent and the name changed to the Criterion Twin Theatre, and features first run attractions. In 2014 it was taken over by the Hollywood 3 Cinemas chain and renamed Caprice Duncan. It was closed on December 30, 2023 with Timothee Chalamet in “Wonka”.

Pictures from its page at CinemaTour:http://www.cinematour.com/tour/ca/439.html. According to that page, this theater has been demolished, but other sites have showtimes.
Currently owned y Criterion Luxury Theatres (http://www.criteriontheatres.com).
CWalczak: You linked the the Criterion in Courtenay which has been demolished. The Duncan Criterion is at http://www.cinematour.com/tour/ca/435.html
Auditorium 1 at the Caprice Duncan (which is what it still appears as) is actually 372, not 672.
The website link on the right side no longer works, as that site (Criterion Luxury Theatres) is down. This is the current site for the theatre:
Caprice Showcase Theatres
As such, this theatre’s name should currently be listed as the Caprice Twin (as shown at the website) and as part of the Caprice Showcase Theatres chain.
The Caprice Twin is now listed as part of the Hollywood 3 Cinemas chain, as seen at its website:
Hollywood 3 Cinemas
Complete photo tour added from a November 2017 visit for a private screening. Although it doesn’t look like much in the lobby and exterior the theaters are STUNNING to be in.
The Caprice opened before 1985. Definitely before the 1983 closure of the Odeon. I saw Tron there in 1982.
Closed on December 30 2023.
