I have enjoyed going to this theater for several years. More independent and foreign language films tend to be shown here which provide a welcome variety from what major chains show. Early viewing and matinee prices to be largely competitive with other theater brands. Self service kiosks function as expected without much trouble, although I do find having to purchase tickets one movie at a time when seeing more than one the same day just a bit inconvenient. I do like the lean staff model employed here, leaving people to attend to appreciated services like concessions and cleaning rather than menial ones such as selling and taking tickets. The location uses two floors for its eating and viewing areas with adjacent and nearby restaurants for pre- or post-meal meals plentiful. The sound in the various auditoriums delivers well. Seats tend to be softer and easy to lean back without fully reclining. The floors appear to have chipped paint in a number of locations from wear and overdue maintenance I suspect. Overall though a pleasing look and feel has been preserved over the years. I look forward to coming here in the future for those independent and foreign language films of interest to me and those like me.

Parking used to be easy here but now you have to drive further. They’ve added 2 hour limits to most of the garages. Screen quality is not 4K/HDR, seats don’t have headrests, Pepperoni pizza was undercooked, Coke Freestyles were out of Coke flavors.

Great lineup of movies and wonderful stadium seating. Only drawback is air temperature inside each theater. Bring a jacket.

I have heard of morning movies for parents with babies?

maureen lutz | Oct 13, 2019
Yodi Collins | Oct 13, 2019

Yes. Saturdays at 10AM.

Why did Angelikspost in the Sunday WP paper July 24 2022 that "Where the Crawdads Sing" would show at 10:45 AM. My friend and I went there today and it did not show until 1:35 and the theater was closed until 11:45. Please explain.

Bonnie Weiss | Aug 13, 2022
Wendy Murphy | Aug 13, 2022

I would call and ask them. Because even on Saturdays we have gone to 10:45am matinee. I use the app to order my tickets and it is probably more accurate coming from the source. Try them again. Let me know.
