Brenden Theatres

Admission prices on the rise, concession items ridiculously over priced coupled with a Thug Element that is a deterrent to families taking a night out at their local theater will ultimately leave Brenden and other theaters with a clientele that better resembles inmates from the County Jail than a Neighborhood Movie House. Get rid of those that by their vary presence, disrupt those patrons trying to to enjoy a few fleeting hours of entertainment without worry of being bodily assaulted, having their cars broken into and otherwise mentally disrupted from their movie going experience. Until then, keep the lights dim, the seats are filthy due to those that go out of their way to dump drinks and other debris on them, if not slashing them for lack of something better to do...ie watching a movie... When the families find their night out a work out and dangerous, more and more will turn to the safety of their homes and continue to rent movies at far better prices while enjoying snake items much healthier and at a fraction of the cost... That said, most would over look much of the current problems for a Clean, Secure place to spend a few quality hours with friends and family... Rest assured there are still movie goers that take the time to pick up their drinks, pop corn boxes, candy wrappers and discard them in the provided trash cans... It was how we were brought up...

Ive been going here regularly since 2008. Finding "clean" SEATS can be a challenge if you dont show up early; most are stained but compared to Fairfields theyre immaculate. With that being said, Brendens seats are cleaner than Solano Mall (Fairfield), and a lot more comfortable than Davis (Downtown). The biggest problem for me is the quality of the SCREENS. Sometimes you see a a rip/tear thats been repaired and it distracts you for a while. I saw one where a section at the bottom was wrinkled. Brenden has decent to good CUSTOMER SERVICE depending on whos working. Most of the time im satisfied with the service. I have to agree with others on the POPCORN. Last week I threw it out. Yesterday I had a fresh batch. The trick is to go to an early movie. Dont go to the last showing because youll get some nasty stuff. In comparison, Ive never had good popcorn at Solano Mall. I believe Brenden is the best theater between FF and Vacaville so I continue to go there, it could be better, but I dont think their flaws are enough to ruin your experience.

I love this theater, yes it is a couple years old and it shows here and there, but all in all, great service, Brenden employees so far have been great, place is pretty clean and kept up, great place to take a family. do not know why the other person wrote thug element, no! Yes a variety of people. But no problems like other cities. People come here to enjoy a good movie,. yes one down fall for me they only carry one Diet soda, Pepsi, and that is it, have asked that they have 50/50 selection. but so far has not changed. Prices are average. but yes concession prices a bit high for popcorn, but prices average as other theaters prices also. so not big differences. I still stay all theaters prices on concessions are high. Convenient, close to freeway, different types of restaurants, ice cream shops. But Brenden thank you for the great times, (yes multitude and will continue going here) at your theater.

Brenden used to be the go to place to see movies in Vacaville. Now I make the extra trip to Fairfield to go to Regal Cinemas near the mall. Brenden recently upgraded their seating to very nice recliners. the problem is, now you cant get a seat because they sell out frequently because of the vastly reduced number of seats. After being turned away for the 6th time in a row, I no longer try to get a seat at Brenden. To top it off, we have enjoyed the luxury of discounted tickets through Costco. Brenden has discontinued discounted tickets, but Regal Cinemas does sell discounted tickets through Costco. Even better, Regal has discounts on Tuesday night where we pay less than $6 a ticket. If you want seats at Brenden you can buy tickets in advance. That just does not work for us. Going to the movies for us is a spontaneous choice which is almost never planned

Great place, tons of theaters, staff is always super nice and prompt, especially on opening another register especially when theres alot of people, the fact that they are upgrading some of their theaters to gave the comfortable reclining seats is super fantastic and puts this place over the top for me. Im a HUGE movie watcher and being able to actually get comfortable instead of worrying about my leg hitting someone, or shared elbow space is 100% fantastic. Otherwise, its a general movie theater with expensive snack prices and decent ticket prices. :-)

I come here alot due to the fact its close to my home. That and i donate blood and platletes too. Some of the staff is nice and knowledgeable. Some are flat out rude and suck. Its overpricedd and dirty witch is bad. Last two movie i went to. 10 cloverfield and huntsman i saw exposed mouse traps in each of the theaters if you go there during the weekends during the evening theres alot of rude loud people there two. Really too bad bc the place has potential to be really fun and clean too. Two stars for the few good employees and the convenient location.

Wow! Wow! Wow! The truth of the matter is just come here my girlfriend and I were just very impressed with the standard luxury seats in the theater area where we watched our movie. When we saw the seats we thought for a moment that somehow we had ordered some premium seating and when we left after the movie we asked one of the staff in the indicated all their movie theaters were outfitted with these magnificent reclining seats with trays that pivot to hold your drinks and your popcorn and all. An excellent experience! :-)

Prices are high and you usually have to reserve your seats in advsnce. Unfortunately that enables using any VA/MILITARY Benifis because Fandango doesnt have an option for any benifits. Theater is kept clean and service is friendly. Security usually walks the theater and i havent had to hurt anyone in their seats for throwing stuff . My kids enjoy the luxury seating, i like the comfort and the trays. Im looking forward to the menu expanding.

Usually friends and I are deciding between movie theaters in Vacaville, Davis, and Sacramento. And everytime theres a popular movie, I vote for Brenden Theaters, and they all overrule me and go to Davis. Davis is sold out, so I say Brenden, and they all overrule me and go to Sacramento. And Sacramento is sold out too. So we finally go to Vacaville, and theres no line, and we get tickets. And we should have done that the whole time.

There is nothing really new about the Theater. Snack options are still the same & of course over priced. The seats are old, dirty, uncomfortable, and some broken. Nothing has been cleaned, you can see dust every where. The theater should be updated, especially if they are going to keep raising the prices. Its convenient though in Vacaville. But the majority of the time, id rather drive the 30+ minutes to Napa to be comfortable.
