Beautiful theater, comfortable chairs, good food. Can see the screen from any seat! Love it! read more

I really love this movie theater, it's truly a hidden gem. There's usually not a big crowd, the pricing is reasonable, and the theater is always clean with comfy seats. I recently watched Avatar: Ash and Fire here during their matinee timing and had a great time; the movie and the overall experience were both excellent. I've also hosted my daughter's birthday party here, and it was a huge success. We rented out the entire theater for the premiere of Moana last year, and it was such a fun and memorable experience for everyone. Another bonus is the convenient location right next to Costco, making it easy to turn errands and entertainment into a one-stop shop. Definitely keep this theater in mind when deciding where to watch a movie, you won't be disappointed! read more

Movie wise it's great. Food wise it's horrible. Got sick more than once. They have no issue deep cleaning in front of customers. The paper towels are black. The fountain soda dispenser. Is dirty as well if you get a soda get it from the bottle. read more

I love Cinema Hazlet 12! I see movies here a few times a year and the theatres are always updated and have reclining chairs. The snack line never takes more than 5 minutes. So comfy, just make sure you don't fall asleep during the movie! read more

Excellent job on renovations. New chairs that recline. Place looks clean. Popcorn very good and freshly popped. read more

Went to see Wuthering Heights on 2/28 and I was surprised by the new seating with attached trays. Now, only the back of the seat reclines and not your legs. The tray is completely useless and somewhat interferes with the view of the movie. When did eating a full meal during a movie become the norm? I almost prefer the old school theater seats that used to be in every movie theater. Still a wonderful little theater, but I may be finding a theater that is more a theater and not a restaurant. read more

Always loved going to this theater. Recently went into the largest theater and the new seats were terrible. They are super narrow and have a tray table thats very high so if you order a large popcorn it obstructs your view. The seats do recline but it more so just tilts the entire chair keeping you in the same uncomfortable posture of 90 back. It also puts you lower to the ground obstructing your view even more. I definitely would think twice going into the large theater again and hope they don't put those seats in the other theaters. read more

Absolute horrible experience, didn't even get through to the movie. The worker asked for proof of age in which both me and my boyfriend who drove us to the movies (both 18) showed. My boyfriend showed him his license in his wallet and the worker said he could not see the year, although in order to have a license you have to be 17-18 years old. I showed him my school identificaton to where he said we could not go in and asked me to show proof of my passport. I don't know a single person who brings their passport as proof of identification to the movies. Horrible experience, workers need to do better and use their knowledge of the age to have a driver license in New Jersey and the year of graduation of school (this year we are graduating and the date is on it). read more

The new seats are so uncomfortable. I used to love going to see movies there but since they took away the option for coffee and now with the uncomfortable seating, I don't see any reason to go. read more

Prices are fair, theatre is always clean and staff is friendly. I come here all of the time with my family or just myself. They have lot of stalls in the bathroom which is great. Every time I have their popcorn, its warm . read more

The new seats are extremely uncomfortable. Almost to the point of being painful. The old seats were wonderful and allowed you to adjust the position of your back and your legs separately. Otherwise, I'd give this theatre 4 stars. Everything else in the theatre is good. But now I don't want to go to this theatre anymore. And we used to go all the time. I'm very disappointed. read more

good movie theater! its clean, good food, cheap tickets and friendly people too! I'd come back

The staff was rude and very disresepctful. I lvoe coming here, I do so quite often. The bettlejuice movie was wha tI lasrt saw here. The pricing was reasonable, and I liked the popcorn and everything else they had. Just had a negative experience with the staff here was all. read more

It's good to be back... In summary Social Distancing at the theater. Yes, to play it safe I ordered tickets through my Fandango app. Picking out our seats these days is pretty easy. A simple matinee show just to play it safe during the week. Never been to this theater before so I arrived a little early. You can still go to the concession stand for snacks, but currently credit cards only. No cash in these current times. In the theater itself reclining seats as always. It's a little dated, but only allowing 16 seats total. Every other row is blocked off, plus only two are able to sit together. Look, I've always enjoyed going to the movies. This one is pretty close to our home. Just couldn't resist. Prices are reasonable for movies and snacks. Oh, and noticed they are building a Chick-fil-A right next door. Enjoy the show (849). read more

This is our go to movie theatre. Overall we like it, but for some reason they have popcorn that always tastes stale. Yesterday it was stale and burnt tasting. The idea that we can order concessions ahead of time on the app and then pick them up is great. But I have never had such bad tasting popcorn consistently from a movie theatre before. read more

Change the seats back to a fully recline position. These new seats are horrible and don't fully recline. My knees were hurting the entire time since they were slightly bent due to the fact that the chairs don't recline all the way out. The whole chair is uncomfortable. Who actually thought these were good chairs to put in an entire movie theater? I see more people complaining about these new chairs so I'm not the only one. I will drive to a different theater. read more

I love the fact that that Cinemark has movie viewing during the daytime, sometimes before 10am on Monday- Friday. I'm loving it

Brought my 8 year old sister to see Puss in boots at on december 28th. When ordering popcorn for her the cashier got butter all down the sides of the bags. I politely asked if I could have a new bag to transfer the popcorn so she wouldn't get butter all over herself. The cashier was extremely rude and said it was because we asked for butter halfway through and it seeped through, that is not the case. I showed him that there was butter all over the sides at the top of the bag. He refused to give me a new bag or provide any solution to the situation other than a bad attitude and told me to use a napkin to clean it. That obviously was no match for the butter and she has since ruined her new jacket she got for Christmas. Seems like nobody wants to work these days or show an ounce of professionalism. It cost $0 to be accommodating and kind. Should've gone to AMC. read more

For the amount of money you pay to take your family to the movies, never mind the ridiculously high price of snacks, you shouldn't have to sit in a brutally cold theater..TURN ON THE HEAT every theater is freezing, makes movie watching miserable. read more

I've come to this theater multiple times and each time is worse than the last. First time, fire alarm. Second time, red head lady wouldn't let me take my 18 year old sister into a scary movie because she didn't have ID, even though i'm 24 (we told other employees and they were confused as well which makes me believe this isn't a normal thing they do), third time, which was last night, another fire alarm not even 15 minutes into the movie and they just gave us vouchers to come back. It's actually ridiculous not to offer a full refund, especially when some of the employees are rude and they seem to have a fire alarm go off every other week. Don't come here if you actually want to watch a movie. read more

The new seats are horrible very uncomfortable very small. A man cannot sit comfortably on these seats. I will be canceling my membership and now have to look for a closer nicer movie theater. Used to love this theater and went four times a month at least a shame was such a great theater. They also turned the heat off, thinking that the heated seats would keep it warm enough. This movie theater has really went down the drain. read more

Beautiful, clean multi screen theater with reclining seats in all theaters. They have a large concession stand with just about everything, including ice cream. Plenty of parking in the large lot too. Make sure to leave time to print your tickets in the theater if you purchase online. There are kiosks when you walk in or a ticket counter to the left. They do not have mobile ticketing. read more

Great theater located in hazlet, nj. Staff is very nice and the location is quiet. Perfect place for date night.

I do not recommend allowing your kids to watch a movie here. Some members of the staff were very rude and disrespectful. The guard specifically was making my group uncomfortable (coming into the bathrooms and not letting us use it). However the old lady at the ticket station was very lovely and friendly. read more

I am APPALLED at the inability to bring food into this theater. If this theater was still being run by young people instead of elders, then this would not be an issue. It's a Friday night! Let people bring food in! Who are you to rain on their parade? I am disturbed and I want my money back!!!! SHAME ON YOU CINEMARK!!! read more

The theaters are good. The cashiers move slow as SHIT. They fuck up your order. The pop corn, candy, and soda I'd ridiculously priced high. They close the counter too early. When the theaters aren't too hot- the teenagers act like assholes the whole movie and don't shut up. This place needs new management. read more

Came on a Sunday afternoon, the theater is disgusting. They didn't clean between shows. Food and garbage all over the floor and seats. I feel like I'm watching a movie from a dumpster. Gross, never coming back. read more

WORST THEATRE EVERRR. Do not EVER go to this theatre again! The staff are the rudest people in all of hazlet. The popcorn is not free on refills and is $10 per medium bucket. Not to mention that the theatre itself is very low maintained and seat quality is low with crumbs being all over the seats and floor. Also the prices are the very high for snacks. ...... I'm taking my business over to AMC Freehold, where there's free refills on popcorn, the staff are much friendlier, and the seats aren't the rubbish that this movie theatre has! If I could rate this movie theatre --1 Stars I would read more

I had a lot of fun times at cinematic but the place is really bad it cost like $5 for 1 candy box and like there butter is not working plus I sat in 2 seats and they where broken. read more

Don't have sweet tea they are running out of small bags and mediums bags of popcorn their candy is priced way to high.

Happy Wednesday Adventurers! This was my first time coming here and to the movies in well over 3 ish years so the expectations weren't much. This isn't Menlo but honestly I was never a fan of ordering food while watching a movie. I guess that's the 90's kid in me but I just prefer the large tub of popcorn, butter, and soda for the night. This place wasn't bad around 5 but it started to pick up after we were leaving. The place was okay, clean, orderly, and had the amenities you'd want for a movie theater. They don't offer refills at the moment due to covid (which no one seem to practice 6 feet anymore). But I think they dropped the prices a smidge for not offering the refills. I ordered a cherry slushy and large popcorn--there is nothing like movie popcorn! We were seeing the new Scream (my favorite slasher franchise, after all I named my Jeep Scream Queen). The chairs are well worn but comfortable and still recline, which we figured out half way through the movie. It's been THAT long since I was used to Menlo full recline at home style chairs vs. the stiff backed theater chairs from years ago. Had a great time and the staff were awesome. Will definitely come back here again :) read more

Pretty solid movie theater, it's the closest to us that has reserved seating and the loungers. Not as many options as the AMC Monmouth Mall, but it's pretty clean, the loungers are nice and I believe every theater has them. Cinemark charges a bit too much to reserve your seat online, but it's a nice option for those sold out shows. Concession and ticket prices are on par with everywhere else, overpriced. But, when have they not been? Service is always pretty good, popcorn is good and you get one free refill with a large soda or large popcorn. Plenty of parking, and if you drive a Tesla they have charging spots. read more

Very disappointing date night. The seats we bought were broken and would not recline. The only choice we had to move to was front row which was awful. The theatre was extremely hot with no air conditioning. I do not recommend at all. read more

I went here with my 2 friends and we were having a good time. people behind us were also having a good time and we were whispering/ Talking here and there. The theatre was EMPTY and we got kicked out FROM ONE PERSON who reported us. We are minors who didn't get a ride home until 10 minutes later. It was said to call corp for a refund when we don't even know how to do that. We got cards for our "refund" for free seats. I don't think I even want to go back. do better and train your employees cinemark. Not a good experience. read more

I went to this cinema yesterday to watch the new Hobbit film and was a bit weary of it as it looked quite dated when I walked in. Usually I'll go to Freehold or Monmouth Mall but both those AMC theatres were showing only 3D in late slots. I think 3D is pointless so was about to give up until I found this place with an 11.30pm 2D showing. I shouldn't have worried as the screen was huge as was the room and it was nice and clean. Cleanliness is my biggest problem with cinemas. While this place is still quite dated in decor, it's still clean. The seats were wide and comfy AND reclining. I'm loving this new push of reclining seats at movie theatres, it makes the film that much more enjoyable. Besides the actual cinema, the staff were polite and prices were what u would expect. I'd most definitely visit this venue again. read more
