    This is the worst movie theater ever. This will be my family last time coming here. They have bad customer service.

    Spring clean much?
    Sharon W.

    Came earlier in the day to pick up the tickets for an afternoon show. Upon arriving, trash was strewn at the entry point. I mentioned it to the employee issuing tickets. Came back at my stated movie time and the same strewn trash is still there...untouched. I mention it again and get the same empty assurance that someone will take care of it. Post movie (Mind you, at least 5 hours have gone by) and no one has given the cleanliness of the entrance the attention it deserves. If you're greeted by trash at the door, it might be an indication of what's to come. I saw how the concession stand and condiment area were and vowed not to eat anything they had. It just was not clean and I had my doubts about the food handling methods. So watching "Morbius" and knowing it's a Marvel movie anticipating a post credit end scene, we are sitting there and the person who came in to clean turns on the damn lights. I'm just like really? I wasn't the only one perturbed by his false sense of urgency to clean up. Other patrons were miffed about it too. Decided to use the ladies room before departing and wish I had just held it. The bathroom smelled of warm death and needed more attention than the entrance. Decisions, decisions...which do you clean first. I didn't post pictures of the bathroom because some things you can't unsee. There is a deep lack of concern for how this venue is kept. Magic Johnson wanted to have movie theaters in underserved areas to allow an opportunity for everyone to enjoy a trip to the movies. If this is the vision, someone needs glasses. The default seems to blame it on staffing shortages but when you see people lounging instead of working, it just becomes an excuse. Capable of accepting cash or contactless pay that isn't Apple Pay. Samsung pay works but ye of little faith working there want to argue with you about if it'll work. Parking is in an adjacent lot and behind the building. You can select your seats and pay online, but you won't get a military discount. Paying in person, you can do the same but pack your patience as there may be a line and little motivation by the staff. I got my tickets early and he tore them in half and just shrugged when I asked him why he did that. He said just bring both halves with you when you come back. Wow, just wow. Discount prices are offered for matinee showings. Check to see prices and times as it may change. Theatre two was clean and had no issues with seating. I'm extremely doubtful that I'll recommend this theater to others or return.

    Why are you still open for business during a pandemic when your establishment is a petri dish for bacteria and a breeding ground for viral infection?! It is utterly disgusting and grimy! The bathrooms have broken and damaged fixtures, filthy everything, toilets that haven't been flushed, sticky floors, cloudy windows, and just nothing clean -- it also STINKS! And then you have the audacity to serve food??? People deserve better! I am angry that you are allowed to conduct business this way. Your poor employees. Just GROSS!! I'll see if I can go back to get pix

    Great comedy.

    First Magic Johnson AMC theater I've been in. Not sure why I thought it be a nice theater. But it was your typical theater. This one was little outdated with the carpet and furniture in the theaters. The sound system today in theater was very laugh. To loud. Clear like AMC picture. Not theater, but nothing to give a high rating for

    Goodness they try hard to put a good show on in this theater. Each season is something new, with…read moreholiday themed shows for Halloween and Christmas. Theater seats probably seats 300+ people, so it's pretty intimate. It's the folding seats like in a movie theater. There's a full stage lighting but the sound system is really subpar (or maybe the sound techs are bad?). It's crippled several of the shows I've been to, though. Mics cutting in and out, some cast members' mics are too loud while others are ineffective. In multiple shows from 2015-2018. Sometimes it seems like someone is trying to make up for the cruddy sound quality by turning the volume up. *face palm* That's now how that works, people! Production Quality: OI've seen 6 different productions here in the last 3 years, and half were truly decent: a magic show where a middle aged magician did all the standard tricks with enough gusto to entertain the crowd, a summer show with lots of audience participation and bubbles and beach balls and lasers (!), and lastly the surprising late-night Christmas show we just saw (2018) where they told the story of Jesus' birth from the Bible. It was a simple nativity scene with Christmas carols (Six Flags America really leaned into the Christian Christmas theme this year vs last year's more secular stuff). It was low budget, and the mics cut out lot, but it was heartfelt and familiar. I was surprised to see a religious show at Six Flags, but it was the last show off the day (8:45pm) and the name made it obvious that it was religious ("Behold, the Messiah"), so no surprise proselytizing. Overall, I hope management invests in a better sound system here. Or a sound tech. Or just figure out what needs fixing and fix it, because the poor performers are putting themselves out there in usually-cheesy family friendly shows, and they can't be happy with the dicey sound either. Otherwise people are going to mostly visit here to escape bad weather (heat in the summer and cold in the winter).

    September 21st 2025…read more This place is so disorganized and disappointing. My father called ahead of time since him and I are both disabled (we both have handicap placards and my father has a permanent disabled license plate) He finally got ahold of someone and they said if we want handicap parking up close get the gold parking pass. I paid 200 dollars for parking. Yes, 200. Parking up close is VERY important to me.. Nobody was helpful in guiding us to the lot we paid 200 dollars for. Also, they told us when we got there there's no handicap places, we just have to go and sit on a blue bench and call a number for a golf cart to pick us up. I called the number 3 times and somebody did answer. They were nice but not helpful. We ended up having to give up and walk. No workers were helpful, and when we would try to flag down other workers on golf carts they would not stop for us. They did not even look at us The stadium is very outdated. It looks extremely industrial and not welcoming Very crowded Lines were long There definitely was not enough bathrooms or food areas to keep up with all the people it can hold However, I did enjoy the seats we had. I liked the view. And the field looks great. I will say, the bathrooms for the MOST part were clean for over 50 thousand people being there. I did see a toilet overflowing onto the ground though. But workers were taking care of it This stadium needs a huge update. Do not waste 200 on up close parking. It wasn't even that up close and nobody came and picked us up despite us calling and waiting for 43 minutes (the game had already started while we were waiting) Again, I do have to hand it to the woman on the phone who kept answering. It wasn't her fault and at least she answered. So, if you are disabled and can't walk far, plan accordingly Every stadium is different So always check their bag rules. I did have to use a small clear bag Sadly, this stadium is probably one of the worst I've been to P.S- if you google worst NFL stadiums, this one comes up lol. So I'm not the only one complaining

I recognize that the Magic Duel takes huge pride in 5 star reviews on Yelp, which I deeply respect. But I did wish that we had seen the show in a different venue. I am no stage expert, but lights and sound do matter a lot in delivery of a magic show for a skeptic like me, going because the significant other loves magic shows. With better lighting, things would have been more "magical" (thinking bottles.) I was also surprised that a bubble artist, as good as she was in her profession, was considered a magician. After some quick research, you will end up at Magic Duel in this genre, so please go to Dupont or Georgetown.
