I can't say much for the selection, I didn't get the chance to view the selection. The Owner, I'm assuming it was the owner, he seemed to be more involved in being a member of the "Mask Police". I was wearing a mask but it didn't appear to be enough for the individual in question. I wasn't permitted past the entrance, even though I was wearing a mask. I will not return and will recommend to others not frequent this establishment.
One of the few video rental places left in Ottawa. Now that Invisible Cinema, Tundra Moving Pictures, and Phoenix Video have all closed their doors, Glebe Video International is just about the only place left to rent anything else than the typical Hollywood blockbuster fare. It is also the only place left with knowledgeable staff who are interested in film and who are able to recommend titles. Glebe Video is located on the second floor of 779 Bank Street, just above the Royal Oak. The space is on the small side and a little cramped, for the good reason that the walls are covered from top to bottom in shelves of DVDs. Of course, they have the new releases found at any rental place. But the main attraction is the international films, independent films, documentaries, and classics that one would be hard-pressed to find anywhere else - including VHS tapes of films that were never converted to DVD. In the 7 years since I discovered Glebe Video, I don't think I have once gone in and not found what I was looking for. Despite the unfathomable number of films they have, the staff always seem to know what they have and where it is. Glebe Video is a gem, but with Netflix and illegal downloading putting more and more places out of business, it's one that I'm afraid we might soon lose.
As perhaps the last video rental store in Ottawa, Glebe Video is certainly the best. But it would be the best in any case due to its huge selection of videos from many countries and including dvds of films from the 30's and up, which have been restored and are now available for viewing. There is just no comparison with the limited number of films available on Netflix, etc. And, finally, the staff at Glebe Video are knowledgeable film lovers!
Best place in town for UK crime shows on DVDs and a very knowledgeable staff. If you enjoy film then this is the place to go. They also have a very good section on British WW2 dramas jack Hawkins, Richard Attenborough, Richard Burton.....
Glebe Video International is one of the few video rental places left in and around Ottawa. There are far over ten thousand titles and you can find everything from old British television series to obscure Canadian documentaries or from American horror slashers to experimental Japanese cinema. You will need a membership card and have to give your credit card number to rent films. Prices are quite fair as you can rent five movies for ten days for twenty-five bucks. Staff is friendly and helpful.
Owner was extremely nice, it's a great place with thousands of movies to choose from. I'd reccomend for sure!
The place is the last of it's kind. You'll definitely find that film you can't find anywhere else. Bring cash with you.
Are you looking for hard-to-find titles or maybe you eschew high-priced cable and streaming services? Then step back in time to this awesome shoppe!
Great and unique collection, well over 20000 titles. A treasure box of art.
Amazing rental shop. Always find what im looking for. Awesome staff as well.
