The company said that the closure was "a business decision" in a Facebook post.
This leaves the borough with a single movie theater left, the AMC Bay Plaza Cinema 13 in Co-Op City.
"Siri, play Whitney Houston I Have Nothing," another user wrote.
"We truly thank you for your dedicated patronage and hope you've created special movie memories with us," the company wrote.
"Omg no this place holds sooo many memories damn time has changed so much," another customer said.
