I love this place. Im tempted not to review it so more people dont go but the place deserves the recognition and any resulting business. Excellent staff, first run films, comfortable (not luxurious by any stretch) seating, reasonably priced refreshments and tickets plus typically available seating for movies. Great place.

This is our go to theater for family fun! No, there are no fancy recliners but the price is perfect! The staff is always friendly and the theater is always clean. My family of 5 can go to the movies with out breaking the bank. Sign up for the rewards program to earn free movies and concession items.

Good, clean theater. Friendly and courteous staff. Could use a remodel - the seating isnt as nice as some other area theatres - but then again, the ticket prices are lower here as well. Tuesday night is discount night (currently $5.00), so take advantage of that, if possible.

Absolutely the worst. Treated my family and especially my children like absolute crap. What a shame. I love to support local businesses, but this one place I just cannot allow my children to be subjected to it. Racism? Ill never know, but the lack of diversity is obvious.

This theater is the best one in the area. Been going here since I was a kid and still am today. The staff is very courteous and helpful, especially the management. They will make sure you enjoy your time here and would love to keep a valued customer returning

I have been going there for many years. Never had a bad experience. Always clean, prices are great and free refills on any size popcorn and drink. Cant beat it. Classic Cinemas in Fox Lake is a great place to take the family to see any movie.

Always our first choice for movies. Even though its a little out of our way, its well worth the extra drive. Great staff and upkeep. Best popcorn of any theater in our area. Weve never had a bad experience here.

Enjoy this theatre every time! Clean, helpful staff, comfy seats, reasonably priced tickets. I believe the sound system is too enthusiastic. Taking it down a notch or two would improve the experience. For me.

Some of the cheapest ticket prices around. Great popcorn. Less comfortable seats than other theaters nearby, but this is the only local theater I have never experienced technical issues with during a film.

Theater is very clean, prices are great and so is the popcorn. The sound system and projectors are also up to date. They mostly play family friendly flicks, but selection isnt bad.

Its a no frills theater that gives free refills for their popcorn and drinks. Their rewards add up pretty quickly. If youre not worried about visuals, this is the theater for you.

Seats are outdated and dirty. Theater smells funny, and everything is way over priced. Tickets should be $2-$3 a movie max! Wont be back.
