Went to opening night of Scott Pilgrim and not only did the theater change to another theater, resulting in fans who got there first to wait back in line, but the movie started without trailers late by 4 min. and without sound. I guess they figured out the sound was off because everyone in the theater, already aggravated, were yelling at the top of their lungs. However, once the movie restarted, the lights were still on, the movie was not rewound, and the sound was still not on. At this point, everyone frustrated, even the staff it seemed, were done with the whole process. When the movie finally started, we still only got one preview, and the frame was not centered resulting in many parts of the movie to be cut off. I blame management more than anything else as they seemed to be the ones who just sat there letting their employees take the blows and not taking any real responsibility themselves. I would be satisfied with only my free pass after the movie, which still doesnt compensate for the fact the movie started now half an hour after it was supposed to, however in the line to get my pass I heard other people from an entirely different movie coming to get passes while complaining as well. I never want to go back to this theater again. The only thing that would make me even consider it in my mind would be if the manager who was trying to fix things that night got fired. He obviously failed.

Last night I was visiting my god-daughter and I took her to watch the One Direction Movie here and I promise Ill never go back to this theater. First, when I bought the tickets, the woman there was so rude when I asked her to repeat my total because she was speaking so quietly that I couldnt understand her. Second, once inside the theater room there was still some trash that had not been picked up from the previous showing. The movie itself I have no complaints, the sound and picture quality were good, which is why they get the two stars. The worst part was as we were exiting the room after the movie, there were three employees standing outside of the door and right in front of us one says "why are they coming out this way thats so stupid" The other replies, "I know right, so dumb they couldve gone out through the other back exit" If these employees are calling us that stuff to our faces, what are they saying once we are gone. This was horrible on behalf of the employees.

This theater is a bit outdated compared to the AMCs, but its the closest location for some of the movies that are place. Its weird that sometimes the AMC doesnt have a movie, but this nearby regal has a movie, so that there isnt a real option if youre going to the nearest theater playing the movie of your choice. However, theyre doing an excellent job in maintaining the place, keeping the restrooms decent and playing the movie. There was a time when we saw the aftermath of a suicide here. Some guy hung himself from the parking lot, but didnt realize that if you use a thin string that your head would be severed. I mean, who would know unless you try it. He definitely taught us a lesson. Use it to your advantage if you decide to ___________.

Huge theater that was an upgrade from the old Edwards, but after many years, it has lots its glitter. The carpet looks dirty and the seats smells like old couches... Besides the standard screens, the prices for movies here are kind of expensive for what you get. The IMAX screens arent IMAX, I honestly cant tell the diff between it and normal screens. The real3D and IMAX3d are equally disappointing for the price. Plus, you dont get any student discount when buying tickets for these screens. Best part, theres plenty of parking. Go here if you just want to see a movie at a convenient location, but its no longer an impressive theater for a date night.

Ive been here several times over the last 5 years and have never been disappointed. Its a newer theater with stadium seating. The seats do not recline but you can lift the armrests to snuggle up with your date. The aisles are pretty narrow and people can easily kick your seats. But the seats are comfortable. The employees have always been helpful and professional and they keep the place clean. The ticket pricing is typical of most theaters that show new releases. Evening showings are around $12/$13 at time of this review. On a side note, the theater is located next to some great restaurants, from Italian to American to Asian.

Rather large theater with a good selection of movies. Apparently they have a special on Sundays for around $5-6 for a movie. Thats a great deal! The concessions here are somewhat expensive, which is expected. I bought a pack of Red Vines for about $5.00 whereas normally theyre around $1-2. But I suppose you come here for the entire experience and not to necessarily save money. I also bought 3 Snickers ice cream bars for about $4 each. $17+ for snacks for 3 of us. About the same price as a meal for two at a cheap restaurant.

Our current go-to theater; buy the tickets at Costco, 2 sets for $15.99 instead of the $12 they charge for general admission. There is free parking in the structure adjacent to the theater; be careful as you drive up and down the parking structure; the traffic is 2 way and the corners may be quite dangerous. The screens are not that big, pretty clean. Prepare to wait in line if watching for the big blockbuster movies on opening weekend.

This theater is a good location based also on whats surrounding it, for instance the locations to eat at before the movie and theres always people here ready to check out the next big movie of the month. Its close and its not that expensive. It offers points for the theater itself and its free. The last movie I saw here was Transformers and it was a Horrible film! Please watch option number two and do yourself that favor.

Ok. Who manages this place? I have tried coming here 3 times in the last year and every time the staff is non exsistant and slow when they are around. Twice the theatres have not been cleaned and the price is outrageous for a lot of nothing... with the prices the way they are these days for movies I expect more than what this theater is providing. Archlight, u are more expensive and now I know why. See u at archlight.

Its your average theater. Nothing really that stands out or to brag about. Concession lines are always long. Some of the cashiers seem to have really bad attitudes and then there are those that shine. I wouldnt recommend to watch a really long movie here because the seats start to get uncomfortable but other than that you really cant complain. Good prices, good movies, and decent selection at the concession counter.

Cheap movie tickets makes this place very popular. The main Parking Garage entrance is on Garfield; Google always makes me drive down Main to see the front of the building. There are plenty of bathroom stalls so I never had to wait before. As always, movie theater food is expensive. I dont recommend the Coke flavored Icee though. Also, loved this place for showing the Back to the Future event last year.
