The Dolby theater - screen, sound, picture - awesome. But the "luxury" reclining seats?!? Disgusting. They are ripped, torn and worn. And 1 of our seats was covered in butter. VERY disappointing!! Not worth the $78 we paid for 3 seats!

This AMC theater is in dire need of a remodel! While every other AMC theater I've been to in NJ and PA has upgraded to power leather recliner seats (sometimes they're heated seats like at the Philadelphia Fashion District Mall AMC!) this tired old theater is unchanged and hasn't changed since it was first built in 2006. All of the seats are dirty and worn out after almost 2 decades of wear and tear. I suppose it doesn't matter to anyone who lives in the area and is shopping at Rockaway Townsquare. This location thrives based on its convenient location. If you don't mind going another 9 miles or so the AMC Headquarters in downtown Morristown is better in almost every way. At least this location does have some arcade games to occupy your time if you're waiting for your movie to start. Also, they could use a Macguffins bar and a dine in theater menu offering.

This movie theater is okay. We watched a documentary. The movie theater is clean. The ladies bathroom needs some improvement. I find ordering tickets ahead is best and do convenient. A decent movie theater to return to.

paid $17 just for them to give me two small chicken tenders, and I waited over 10 minutes. I needa refund frfr

For a girl who has a phobia of movie theaters (long story), I only go when I need to.. and that is…read moremostly to appease by baby girl. Other than that, I try to stay far away. With that being said, the last time I was a theater was probably at least 7 years ago. So, I was pleasantly surprised by my experience at Cinepolis! During a holiday weekend when I expected it to be busy, it was very manageable. Very close parking to the theater.. inside is nice and welcoming. I appreciated the menu options for food and libations. I LOVED that our first cocktail came out in a glass with a fancy piece of ice lol. I was disappointed that our second one came in a plastic cup.. We only ordered popcorn but my friend loved the truffle parmesan one. Inside of the theater, spacious and (as clean as they can be) seats. Very spacious leg room in front. The only complaint was that the bass was a little out of whack and distorted parts of the movie. I would have liked an option to not have to get up to place any additional order (you miss parts of the movie).. but, overall, I did really enjoy the experience. So much so, that I may drive an hour to this theater again when the time comes for any future movie magic in my life.

Clean, modern, and a great place for a date or even for family night. Full bar and decent food in…read moreaddition to the usual movie theater food. AND they bring it to you! Seats to new releases often sell out so get your tickets in advance! The reclining seats and discount days are also a draw!

We have a service dog and going to the movies is kind of difficult, as many theaters are loud…read more That's where Warwick rocks; we can enjoy a movie with the sound at a level that is enjoyable by all. The concessions are vital to a theater's resources and having many options is great. My only concerns have never been addressed by owners or management. The bathrooms in the lower section are tiny, dark and smelly, even at opening hour. The wait lines are long so you miss a lot mid-movie. The upper section has no bathrooms, but rather porta-potties, which aren't cleaned daily and are very dark at night. Another concern is projector brightness. Screen 1 has the brightest and largest screen and even dark themed movies are quite visible even in the rain. It helps that the projector is housed across the snack bar and very close to the screen. Screens 2 and 3 are projected from much farther away and into smaller screens. It seems that the projectors must be upgraded to liquid cooled laser projectors, whose brightness and clarity isn't affected with a proper lens. Instead in a dark themed movie, all one sees is only what is bright and so you're left guessing what's going on in the screen. This totally ruins the experience of going to the movies. There aren't many outdoor movie screens left and having the opportunity to enjoy one is an amazing experience. I truly hope and pray management addresses these issues, so that this establishment can continue to be enjoyed by generations upon generations!

It's been just over a year since our last visit and my last review and I am happy to report I still…read morelove this place SO much. Unlike our last visit, it wasn't the most ideal of weather, but we already purchased the tickets so we still made the drive up. Even on a rainy, chilly night, it was a great experience. Instead of setting up in the bed of our pick up, we just stayed in our car and had a perfectly cozy movie experience. We used our radio for the first flick, but decided to just rent a radio (for $5) for the second so we didn't have to leave the car on. My hot tip is to show up with enough time to get set up and situated. Whether that means lawn chairs and blankets, or setting up in the trunk of your hatchback, getting cozy is your #1 priority here people! A few updates from last year: -They take card now! It made renting the radio and ordering food very easy. -The app is no longer needed. You can go right up to the window to order, but leave time before the movie starts because it takes a while. This is a perfect night for any season and I can't wait to go back.

Watched The Devil Wears Prada and the whole experience was just great. Staff was friendly and accommodating from start to finish. The food and drinks were a highlight too -- I had the pear infused ginger mule which I highly recommend: well balanced, not too sweet, just right. We also got sweet potato fries and chicken nachos for sharing. The nacho portion was generous -- we couldn't finish it. IPic already sets a high bar for the movie theater experience, but this location clears it. Looking forward to many more movies here. Also, there is a parking lot across the street. Prices are already low but you can validate the ticket for up to 4 hours in the lobby of the theater. Free parking is a treat these days, especially if you drive from Manhattan.
