The ticket purchase was simple, although the line was long it did not take too much time to get through. When I purchased concessions my cashier was attentive and understanding when my group of 7 had a couple last minute change to the order, the bathrooms were clean and had no odors, the halls and main areas were clean and overall well maintained, and the seats in the theater had no stains marks or scuffs and larger than other theaters read more

My LEAST favorite AMC in OC given this place more than enough chances but it's always a bad experience. The service is beyond slow such as scanning tickets for entry and for concessions. Plus most showings will have a big group of teens or families constantly talking during the movie..... read more

This has always been my go to AMC A-List movie theater weekly on Thursdays for movie premieres in IMAX and Dolby. But recently the quality in their premium theaters has dipped hardcore. I watched Gladiator 2 back in November and noticed the bass was non-existent in the IMAX. Watched Captain America: Brave New World a few months later and same issue. Went again for WARFARE last week and same issue! Not to mention the seats for the Dolby are starting to all fall apart as well. The Dolby and IMAX are in severe need of refurbishment. Please get it together AMC!!!! I want to keep supporting! read more

Bought our tickets online, picked our seats- so easy- concession stand lines are always long, side concession are never open- other than that good, pretty clean theater. read more

I used to go to the movies a lot but after COVID, I tried to stay away from the theaters because of fear. I was pretty impressed at how clean the theater was though. I think it was cleaner from past visits many years ago. My son brought me to the movies to watch Nope. Our theater was great, we sat in one of the IMAX theaters. The sound was great and seats were comfortable. Any time there was an action scene, you could feel the rumble as if you were there. Awesome effects. There is a bar near the concessions, which is a plus and I have not been able to try out. Next time I visit, I will be sure to try it out. If you have a rewards card, you get a free refill on your popcorn. I suggest to definitely sign up. I won't be so nervous on my next visit. So see you soon AMC!!! read more

The lady who took our QR code tickets was nice. At concession there are two lines, one for the non-stubs members and the a-list skip-the-line line. You can order ahead of time online. The seats here aren't reclining. The mozzarella sticks are a non-starter because the fryer isn't working but the employee who let us know was genuinely apologetic. There's fun cutouts for new movie promos you can take pics w/ i.e. Barbie or Insidious: The Red Door. I'll stick to Century Stadium in the future since the price is cheaper and the seats recline and heat. Only stopped by here today because I have an AMC gift card. read more

Tyler B was the man!! He went above and beyond to get my cousin a promotional bucket for Minecraft. He made me remember why I always choose AMC over Cinemark. Get him a promotion ASAP! read more

The seats are like economy class airplane seats on the budget airlines... hard, tiny, and do not recline! This theater is probably one of the not so nice locations for AMC. The seats are absolutely horrendous. Most of the other AMC locations have leather wide, cushy chairs that recline. This place has the rough cloth seats with no cushion at all. So very uncomfortable to sit in for two hours while you're watching a movie. Also, the whole place is not very clean. The sound is also very dated and does not produce very high quality sound. Overall a super dated movie theater that still charges regular price. Definitely do not recommend. read more

Just got back from seeing a movie at the block (outlets) in Orange. There were four total separate parties including us in the theater. 8 people. Basically empty. The row ahead of us was 2 teenagers violently making out and other "activities". I'm talking throwing each other around, laughing, and very questionable noises. They didn't catch 3 seconds of the movie the people ahead of them were smoking. SMOKING. Wtf I went to tell somebody about the smoking and management did... take a guess... NOTHING. Dude was puffing smoke clouds through the entire film. Manager came in and stood there for all of 2 minutes, came back, stood another 2 minutes and then nothing. If management is too scared to confront someone who is smoking in the theater, just imagine if anything more serious went down... you're screwed. Also, how are there no cameras in the theaters? With all the insane stuff happening on the daily, how is this still a place with no cameras? What has happened to society? Does nobody give a shit about anyone else anymore? I'm a pretty chill dude, but people who are inconsiderate to others just reaaaallllly get under my skin. It's so easy to be a decent human being, but people just don't care at all anymore. Including management. I would have asked for a refund, but I'd rather just never come back here. Also, the men's bathroom smelled like a port o potty and was covered in etchings/tagging. Couldn't get out of this theater fast enough as soon as the credits started rolling. See ya never, AMC read more

First time at this AMC location. Reasons why I would give this site 5 stars... - $5 fan favorites - I watched Grease the other day, and it was fantastic!! The movie looked and sounded great. - Priceless joy and positive experience: the audience all sang, hooted, hollered, and clapped along. What an engaging experience. - Clean and spacious. Deduction of 1 star - - Chairs need to recline! Thankfully, I was sitting in the first row after the handicapped area, so I was able to put my legs up on the railing. However, for others, I am sure it was less pleasant. - Google Maps is horrible. It does not know how to direct drivers to the lot closest to the AMC. AMC should contact Google and have this corrected. All in all, a great experience! Keep the $5 Fan Faves coming!! read more

Out of all the AMC theaters in OC, I probably come to this one the most. Most of the employees are good & attentive. There are a lot of other employees that just walk around and not do much or stand around and talk to other employees. The actual theaters are hit and miss. Some theaters have good recliners, some have sucky ones, or none at all. Dolby viewing is definitely where it's at! We saw our most recent movie in the Dolby theater and the seats were amazing, it was a huge theater, and the sound was amazing! I'll always come back here! read more

Came here for the 10th anniversary screening of Whiplash for a matinee showing. I love how giant their lobby is. There's something fun to look at in every corner; cinema classic photos, quotes, posters, and writings on the floor, even! They have a concessions and bar and bathrooms all there in the lobby. Great theater. read more

This review is for Wanda! We bought tickets to see the Taylor Swift Eras concert movie and wonderful Wanda greeted us so warmly! She scanned our tickets, gave the complimentary poster and friendship bracelets and told us to enjoy the show. Her energy and smile made me so hype for the movie. Afterwards, she saw us come out and shouted across to us "how was it?!!!!" Her smile still shining bright. We chatted for a little bit and then we had to go. What a lovely lady! Thank you Wanda for making my day. It's the little things, you know. The movie itself was amazing. We were in the Dolby Theater and it was super immersive. I couldn't tell if the clapping was coming from the theater or patrons around me. What a perfect way to relive the concert! Taylor Swift is a genius. read more

Got a chance to see a yet-to-be released movie at this large theater complex in the Orange Outlet mall. There is plenty of parking, and a lot of good places to eat nearby within walking distance. The theaters are older, with cushy but worn seats. For whatever reason, the seats themselves don't come up when not occupied, so it's actually better NOT to stand up when someone is trying to walk past you to get to your seat. There are a lot of screens so it will show independent and foreign films that might not make it to smaller theaters. read more

I've been coming to this theater location for years. My favorite theaters are the Dolby and IMAX theaters because the sound and picture quality are outstanding and put you in the action. The Dolby theater has plush reclining seats, and the audio and video are highly detailed and loud. I've also noticed the seats vibrate more during heavy bass scenes and explosions--an excellent enhancement. The screen size and sound quality in the IMAX theater are another great option, but the seats are non-reclining. The experience is still worth it for epic and blockbuster movies. This theater feels older than other IMAX locations I've been to but still provides a better experience than the regular theaters. Hopefully, they can refurb it with cleaner seats and updated sound and screen. The food, snacks, and drink offerings are pretty standard, with alcohol options available at the bar. My go-to items are the movie nachos with cheese sauce (which they only give one free now, it used to be two before the pandemic); extra sauce or salsa is an additional charge. The movie popcorn is also a classic snack where you can add your butter and salt at the self-service counter. One complimentary refill on the large, I believe. The Private Theater Rental option is an excellent feature for 20-40 friends or family to join. A perfect opportunity for co-workers too! I've got to experience the private theater a couple of times, making the movie-going experience more unique and fun. The AMC app makes everything easy, from ordering tickets and food to keeping track of points and what you've watched. I've been a premiere member and (on-and-off) A-Lister; both have pros and cons for your subscription price. There are also matinee prices and discounts for movies before 4 pm. Own AMC stock? Also, get perks through the app if you are a shareholder! The service and staff has been friendly for the most part and I haven't had many negative issues. The cleanliness is hit or miss on some days, but satisfactory majority of the time I've visited. Last but not least, please clean up after yourselves also! They do have staff that comes in and make sure it's clean for the next movie, but if everyone does their part and brings their trash to the outside receptacles, it saves time for everyone! read more

Not all of the theaters have reclining seats. Definitely a drawback considering century theaters is cheaper and they have reclining seats that also can be heated. We wanted to get mozzarella sticks but their fryer wasn't working. Trailers were 20 minutes long. The Barbie display was fun to take pictures in. read more

I am sorry bring back the original flatbread pizza and I am extremely disappointed one time I was hoping for the long way flatbread like they had before going to the pathetic looking flatbread pizza and I am sorry the new flatbread pizza to me is false advertising because the pizza is way too small it is ridiculous you charge $11.00 for a tiny flat bread so when I was there I was very ticked off and I had to get a manager and get my money back and I actually wanted the pizza for dinner instead I ended up getting Pretzel Bites and that was better but not dinner like style and I really hope you bring the flatbread the long way back not the pathetic way that you have right now! You should give me a Gift Card because I am a Premier AMC member to me that is not good!!!!! read more

That have a big selection of movies. It's kind of old but never disappointed with the movies they play here. They also don't play too many trailers so we don't have to sit through that and wait for the movie. read more

I was here last Wednesday. It was super busy! We had an issue with our tickets and it took two people to resolve the issue, but it got done. They had a positive attitude and were nice throughout the experience. Cleaning wise, I think the theater can do better. read more

The worst seats in theatre 1. It's like they just forgot about the theatre. I've never been to a theatre where I didn't want to put my arms on the armrest. When the previews start the lights were still on and the sound was blasting, not the normal great audio but ear drum bursting sound. Horrible experience. read more

This theater is big and flashy when you walk in. They have the remix machines which is my only reason for 2 stars. Everything is overpriced. Our theater didn't have the reclining seats so the fact that you're paying $18 a ticket for basic, uncomfortable seats sucks. Also, 30 minutes of trailers and ads is just ridiculous. I'd much rather go to Cinepolis. Way better theater. Even the starlight in Whittier is better and super cheap! read more

I'm rating our experience solely on one employee at the concession stand. I believe his name is Brent. He was just very friendly right off the bat when we ordered our food. My family was there for a Sunday evening movie, and I wanted to point him out since it's hard to find friendly service these days. Thanks Brent! read more

I never review any businesses on yelp but I wanted to give a shout out to Amanda the bartender at AMC in Orange. She is always very friendly and remembers regular guests. The cocktails she makes are great and I appreciated her telling me all about AMC fan favorites for horror movies this October! I had no idea about the classic films being screened in theaters and now I'll get to enjoy them thanks to her hospitality. Definitely an amazing AMC cast member!! read more

It smelt like ASS when entering theater 14 and got worse when sitting down. No matter what seat we sat it,it smelt bad.

this theater has not been renovated so none of these theaters have recliner seats. (except dolby) it screams y2k aesthetics and the fact it's the same since it opened. however, great number of films and screens. the only modern amenity is the bar and mobile ordering. i only came here because my local AMC wasn't showing the special event film... i wouldn't come back here unless this was the case again... and id only do dolby. read more

Movie theaters are becoming a thing of the past but I'll always do it for the experience. The overpriced ticket, food, and drink makes it a bit more challenging but it's typically always worth it. I love coming to the movie and always have. This location is massive and has decent seating. read more

This is a very large AMC Theater location, with 30 screens. The projectors are laser technology, so the picture is even sharper than a digital projector, and the sound in the auditorium is incredible. This theater gets quite crowded, so if you want concessions I would definitely arrive a few minutes early. The popcorn was very fresh, and the customer service is very good. I definitely recommend this AMC Theater location. read more

While this theater has been one that I've frequented ever since I was a kid, it's gone downhill and it's apparent when you're paying $20 for tight seats, kids running around, rude workers, dirty seats, floors, and overpriced tickets There's coca cola freestyle and cool screens like Dolby, IMAX 3D, RealD, and premium screens but there isn't much else. The theater itself has many screens and it can range from large auditoriums to average-sized. read more

Me and my boyfriend have the movie membership and love coming to this theatre every week for a date night. It truly is one of the nicest movie theatres I have ever been to! The staff is seriously so nice and never had a bad experience out of all the times we have come here. One time my boyfriend dropped his phone down the side of the recliner and a worker pulled apart the seat to find it for him and was so kind. The recliners are always clean and never had a broken one. The seat heaters are my favorite! Can't go to a movie theatre without reclining seats after going here all the time. Thanks to the staff for always being so kind! read more

So glad I waited until the lights turned on to see how nasty the seats were. I was hoping they invested in reclining chairs when I bought the tickets but they haven't so be prepared. It was really unpleasant to sit straight upright for 3 hour Wicked and couldn't even sit comfortably without being squished in the row. I'm only 5"0 and couldn't cross my legs without touching the seat in front of me. Every combo is above $20 (for example one large popcorn & drink is $23.97) so it's crazy they still can't afford recliners. That one star can go to the actually pleasantly wonderful food & beverage cashier read more

I purchased tickets to go see Mufasa: The Lion King and unfortunately the person that I was supposed to go with couldn't make it due to a last minute situation. I arrived and explained My situation to Star at Guest Relations and She was very understanding, was able to help Me and Refund Me for the other ticket. She provided the best customer service! Super attentive, kind, friendly. Not to mention very friendly staff will definitely return. Thanks You Star for going above and beyond great customer service. read more

This AMC is the closest one to where I live. I definitely would like to say there are PROS and CONS to this theatre so I want to list them out to be fair: PROS: - This movie theatre is in the middle of a shopping mall which means there are places to dine nearby, things to do before and after the movie, and a Starbucks just to kick it at after - There is a large number of theaters in this building (30 to be exact) meaning that there are always a variety of show times and movies to choose from. They usually screen not only the LATEST releases, but the movies that may have been out for a few weeks already usually last a bit longer here so I never worry about seeing them right away -They have a DOLBY theatre and an IMAX theater here so there is the opportunity to see a "premium" movie theatre experience CONS: - Because it is in a mall there are TONS of trolls, teens, and kids. The last 2 movies had kids running in and out of the theatre not to mention screaming, crying, and running around. This included teens crawling under the seats, playing tag, and just really creating an unpleasant environment. It was very disruptive to the movie and I had to get security twice. - The other theaters that are NOT Dolby have very generic seats. They do not recline unlike many other local theatres. - The concession line is always un-godly long here. Just something to keep in mind when here. Overall, I would say that the environment of the disruptive children really ruins the experience. It almost is the same as watching a family movie at home with the windows open, a train going by, and maybe sirens in the background. If you REALLY want to see a movie I would come here, but it is not my first choice by any means. read more

FIRST OF ALL THE MOVIE WAS GREAT!!!!!! We had a blast watching AIR! If you havent watched it, then please make your way to the theater! My concern was we were in theather 30 in seat J1 & J2 and the wall was filthy. There was smudges of food and other living animals like nats on there. I was bit a few times from what ever was up there! I didn't enjoy the movie much from scratching and I thought that was super disgusting. If the movie was not so packed, we would of moved, but there were no more seats! Other than that, the movie was great, food was great and the vibe was cool! Just please make sure you tell the cleaning crew after to maybe look out for the walls as it is not appealing and can be disgusting at the same time! read more

We came in last night to watch Operation Fortune:Ruse de guerre at the location, which has been a few years since we have visited. It is a great location to see a movie, plus with the shopping and restaurants. We ordered some hot dogs along with popcorn and soda. It is great to be a AMC Premiere member because you can really get your food ordered quickly. They will definitely need to upgrade the restrooms at the theatre because the water pressure is very low to none. The supplies for the concessions should be fully stocked especially at peak times like Friday and Saturday night when you have a big opening weekend movie. The butter was out, and condiments were out and some staffers did not know what they had or an alternative place to get it. read more

Whats a line? Is it the same as a queue? Or something that you draw with a pencil and ruler? Apparently I don't know what it is because 5 people that were not in line were served before me. Not to mention, a 6th person asked if he can go ahead of me because he was higher than Snoop's private jet and missing his movie. But wait, the one that's high as hell figured it out so...? I dont know, none of the interaction made any sense. The drink was good though so 2 stars! read more
