National Amusements closed the Courtland Cinemas in Burton, Michigan in 2009, but this Friday, the movies are coming back to the Courtland Center Mall with the opening of the NCG - Courtland Cinemas. The theater will be operated by NCG Cinemas.

The Flint Journal published an article on Monday that talked about the project:

Courtland Cinemas will reopen May 20 after closing its doors more than two years at Courtland Center.

Council President Steve Heffner made the announcement during this evening's Burton City Council meeting.

"They've been working on this for a couple months," said Heffner. "It's looking positive. Planet Fitness just moved in there. Courtland Center is on its way back."

The theater at 4190 E. Court St. will reopen Friday under the moniker NCG Courtland Cinemas, featuring six screens and stadium seating, according to the shopping center's Facebook page.

Courtland Cinemas had closed in January 2009, with cinema owner National Amusement offering no word on why the location closed. The same company also closed Showcase Cinemas East theater on Court Street in Burton September 2007.
