    Movie theaters may be a risky business these days, but I really liked this theater which is new and has comfortable reclining and heated seats. Of course the one person next to me had to check their phone several times, and people like that suck. You don't need to flash a beacon to prove you have an addiction. Focus for 1.5-2 hours, dude. Anyway, popcorn and soda are solid and price-expected options. Buying seats online is pretty standard, but it was handy to show up around start time, especially because it was 25 minutes after that before the movie started. Seats were comfortable, screen and sound were good, and bathrooms were nice and clean. There is plenty of parking at the corner of the mall the theater was built in. It's a short walk over to the mall if you want to check out the food court after. The prices were also reasonable for daytime movies. If you're going to go out and see a film, this was a great and comfortable option.

    My husband and I went to Cinemark to see "Lisa Frankenstein" on Valentine's Day. This was our first time both at the Cinemark Willowbrook and at any Cinemark. My coworker had told me good things about this one, and it met expectation. We had a great experience. The movie theater was clean and well maintained and had friendly staff at concessions, nice auditoriums, and comfy recliner seats (climate controlled!). Plus it was so easy to just scan a QR code and print our pre-ordered tickets at the self-service kiosks. I normally don't go to the concession stand when I go to the movies, but I wanted to lean into the whole movie-theater-date trope since it was Valentine's Day. For us to share, I got Combo #1 - large popcorn, large soda fountain drink, and a candy/snack. FYI - Large is HUGE! It could have been shared among a family of four. Not a complaint (it's good popcorn), this is just a tip. Combo #1 is perfect for a family; don't get it if it's just two people. By the end of the movie, we hardly made a dent into the popcorn. So I ended up carrying more than three-fourths of it out and bagging the leftovers in ziplocks when we got home because I didn't want it to go to waste. But I'm glad I went to the concessions because I got to see how well staff were to customers. Even though it didn't look like there were a lot of staff around at that time, the ones who were there really were on it and did a good job. The staffer who helped me at the register was friendly and courteous with me when I said it was my first time ordering at Cinemark. I also saw how another staffer patiently took care of the customer in front of me in line. The customer had kids and the staffer took the time to ensure the mother got her member rewards discount applied during this visit with her family ... Also, once the movie finished and end credits were rolling, staff were already coming in to clean and prep the auditorium for the next show. Plus, we saw a staffer help a girl who left her cell phone in the auditorium and return it to her. Consistent with what my coworker told me and with most Yelper reviews, this is a great theater to go to for movies. I hope it stays this way. I would definitely recommend it!

    I absolutely loved this theater! This is my daughter's go-to movie theater. It was my first time there. I complained a bit because I wanted to go to a more local theater but this cinema was certainly worth the drive. It was very clean, looked new and very well organized. The concession area was not that big but I noticed they did have concessions out so that you could grab your own and then go pay. I just liked the vibe and feel the theater. When we went to watch the movie, we sat in recliners, which were heated! That was a nice plus. Prices are very reasonable and cheaper than other theatres around. I will definitely be returning back to Cinemark at Willowbrook Mall.

    I went to see "WONKA" at the Cinemark and "XD" at the Willowbrook Mall, Wayne, NJ. I ordered my ticket for the "XD' movie online, $13, as well as the seat. There are 12 auditorium with just one that shows "XD" movies. Mobile ordering allows you to choose your movie day, time seat and order snacks. Snacks can be picked up at "Guest-Pickup" or delivered to your seat at a $2 extra charge. Each seat has a swivel table and beverage holder. I like the "XD" theater, Extreme Digital" technology is used here. It is comparable to IMAX, 1.90:1 with exceptionally sharp images and vibrant colors, Dolby enhanced surround sound technology and digital projection technology sets the experience apart from other movie experiences. The theater has "luxury lounges" which allow the audience to really incline while watching the movie. If you have had trouble sleeping at night, this is your solution. The legs and back work independently of each other, a great feature. Lastly, the popcorn is buttery, hot and just the right amount of salt.

    Movie theater!

We were better off having the lights off because wooooow. It's scary. FYI commercials (not previews) start at the scheduled time.

Parking was easy enough, they have a huge lot and you've gotta just run back and put a little parking pass they give you upon entering. There was one guy manning the front which I'm pretty sure is the guy that's also cleaning this whole place. I don't blame them because they aren't a busy cinema but it was dirty as hell. When you walk in the place is actually really nice. Everything has a very cool decor. Carpet is nice, walls are a white textured look. The actual cinema rooms are a different story. So we landed in cinema 5, it was super tiny. Just us and one other person there and THANK GOD. The seats aren't at a slight angle at all. If someone tall sits in front of you you're doomed. Even just the chairs in front of you cut off some of your view. Oh and none of the chairs I tried actually reclined, good thing they were comfy and spacious as is. When we arrived the movie was basically already starting, no previews and it was super dark so I whipped out the flashlight on my phone and the seats really were dirty, crumbs all over the place. Like would a little dirt devil action hurt? The room had no carpet, it was just weird. You can tell they put a lot into the presentation of the hallway and entrance of the place but none into where we'll actually be sitting for the whole movie. The sound was also off during the movie. There were points when I couldn't hear the music being played or the voices of the actors. I'll pay the 10 bucks and go to kerasotes anyday.

It's an independent six-screen…read moreart-house theater that's been operated since 2021 by the non-profit Montclair Film, an organization that champions indie filmmakers and hosts the reknown Montclair Film Festival every October and educational events for both kids and adults throughout the year. In addition to presenting indie films, foreign films, or thought-provoking documentaries that you won't usually find at corporate-owned theaters, the Clairidge's theater auditoriums are smaller and more intimate than you'd find in the big, corporate-owned theaters and only one of the six auditoriums have the fully-reclining seats that have become the industry standard. On the other hand, the concessions go way above and beyond the classic movie theater snacks like popcorn, candy, and sodas which enhances the unique viewing experience. The Clairidge's concessions stand offers beer, wine, and canned cocktails - including the "Director's Cut Blood Orange IPA" created by New Jersey Beer Co. exclusively for Montclair Film. There's nothing better than catching a movie with a drink in hand. It's the perfect blend of a high-brow film experience and a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere that makes for a sophisticated night out while supporting a non-profit that gives so much back to the Montclair community. PRO TIP #1: Show up early to get a good seat. The Clairidge doesn't offer reserved seating and its smaller auditoriums fill up quickly. PRO TIP #2: Download the ParkMobile app. You can pay for parking in Montclair via the ParkMobile app whether you park in the town's garages or metered on-street parking. If you can't find a spot on the street, parking in the Montclair Parking Utility's Crescent Deck (located at 13 The Crescent), which is located just a block from the back entrance of The Clairidge, is $2/hour.

I proceeded to check the place out and decided to approach the bar. I ordered a drink and apparently the bartender made the wrong type of drink. I then waited there for about 12 minutes to try to get a hold of the waitress. Finally when she saw that I was trying to get a hold of her she asked me what I wanted and I explained to her my problem. She stated that it wasn't her problem and that I would have to pay for a new drink. Meanwhile the drink was right in front of me untouched and she still want me to buy another drink. I personally have never in my life had this type of experience. I asked her if I would be able to speak to the manager. The manager on duty was behind the bar. I was told that he would talk to me when he had a chance. He actually never came over to introduce himself. He ac never came over at all. I spent the rest of my night which was only another hour giving the place a second chance. No manager ever came by and left the worst taste in my mouth. I would never go to this place again. Any type of new business that can care less about the customer experience does not deserve my business or anyones for that matter. I will continue giving my business to other places that actually appreciate my presence and have customer loyalty.
