    I was excited to find out Emagine opened in Portage. This location didn't disappoint as it is identical to Frankfort. My husband and I saw Twisters here and it was completely sold out. We enjoyed the heated recliners and the popcorn. I paid extra for real butter and it was worth it. There is also free refills for popcorn which is nice. Most theaters are ice cold but this time I didn't freeze. My husband said the restrooms could have been cleaner but overall the theater was very clean. There are waiting areas with sofas to relax if you arrive early like we did.

    Have been attending this theatre for a couple of years ow and will not go back to another. The chairs are beyond comfortable staff will serve your food in the theatre while you watch the movie and you can order drinks and an actual glass of beer. If you are looking for an unforgettably wonderful experience I highly recommend this venue.

    We went on a Church Choir outing, we watched "The Color Purple " . The theater was amazing. The parking lot was full but drivers were respectful. If I had one draw back or encouragement; it would be to Do something different for Concessions...LINES ARE Far Too Long. The bar was amazing and the food choices were great but prices were a little steep. The reclining chairs were Great; once I learned how to operate it. Overall, the Experience was Amazing

    Love this place! It's clean & new. The chairs are more comfortable than anything I've ever sat in. Recliner, soft leather, heated. The screens are huge. It's the only theater I'll go to from now on.

    Josh couldn't do enough for us to find seats. I believe he went beyond what most managers would have done. We greatly appreciated him.

    You can not have your cell phone in your hand at all. A police officer will warn you out of kicking you out of the movie.

    So happy to see the theater reopen after rumors of it completely closing not to be reopened.

    I visited this theater for the first time since AMC took it over from Icon. Everything appeared to…read morebe the same except the seats and the snacks counter. I bought tickets online so I simply had them scanned upon arrival. Having to wait in line for a kiosk to open up would be incredibly annoying. I saw Scream 7 opening day, so the theater was packed. I walked right to the concession stand only to find a long line at the only available kiosk. Rather than wait in line, we ordered via the AMC app. I'm not sure if doing that was much faster, but we were at least able to skip the line. The bathrooms could definitely use a refresh. It smelled, and the toilet paper was running low. Some of the soap dispensers were also empty. I went to an IMAX showing and found the seats really uncomfortable. They've been updated, but they're definitely not as comfortable as the old Icon red recliners. They also don't recline as much, which sucked. The popcorn was fresh and hot, though, which is a big plus. The AMC theater in the burbs that I usually visit dumps popcorn from bags into the counter storage area. I also just saw the Michael Jackson movie there too and had a similar experience. I rarely go to the movies in the city, but if I do, I might have to go to AMC on Columbus or Block 37. I'm not sure if I can keep this location on the list.

    Judging by the reviews, I'm not alone here…read more I've been a longtime fan of the ICON Theater at 1011 S. Delano Ct E, so I was excited (and a bit cautious) when AMC took over. Unfortunately, the rebrand hasn't been a great experience so far. The biggest change is the shift to touchscreen kiosks for both tickets and concessions. While convenient in theory, it removes a lot of flexibility and human interaction. Once you order, you're funneled through the system with little room to make adjustments or ask questions without jumping through hoops. For example, I ordered Impossible nuggets and selected one sauce. When I tried to ask for a different sauce at the counter, I was told I had to go back to the kiosk and place a new order. I ended up speaking to three different people, including a manager, just to swap or add a $1 sauce. That level of rigidity is frustrating and unnecessary, and it actually made me late for my movie. Another issue is the bar and grill. I arrived early hoping to sit at the bar while waiting for a friend, but I was told I couldn't enter unless I had already purchased a movie ticket. Since we planned to buy tickets together, I couldn't go in. Even security didn't understand the policy. It feels shortsighted, why have a bar if people can't access it freely? It limits both customer experience and potential business. On the positive side, the theater itself is still great. The seating remains comfortable, and the movie experience hasn't changed much from the ICON days. Overall, though, AMC has made the experience more complicated and less customer-friendly. The over-reliance on kiosks and strict policies takes away from what used to be an easy, enjoyable outing. I'm glad the space still exists, but I hope improvements are made,especially when it comes to customer service and accessibility. 2 out of 5 stars.
