Living in NYC,…read moregoing to a regular movie theater is a nightmare...people on their phones, talking, smoking cigarettes and weed, babies crying. I just stopped going since even Alamo stopped enforcing cell phone usage. But I really wanted to see "The Sheep Detectives" and I saw that there weren't too many seats sold for an early Friday show, so my husband and I visited here and it wasn't bad! I didn't order tickets in advance but used the kiosk when we walked in. I was also able to order food at the kiosk and then pick it up at the concession stand. Although every employee I saw there looks like they are in high school, the place seemed to be pretty well run. It was tidy, the soda/salt/napkins areas were organized and well stocked. The restrooms were a little outdated but they were clean and most everything worked. The theater was clean and the seats were in good shape....no obvious tears or sagging or anything. Sound and temperature were perfect. There were probably about a dozen other people in the theater and nobody used their phones or decided to have an in depth conversation. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised after reading some of the other reviews. I imagine if I saw a film that wasn't designed to attract old softies like me, my experience might have been different but I would go back here as long as it wasn't too crowded.

Although the band was integrated well, the Lead vocalist and lead guitar were both clear standouts. Their pictures and video clips on their website do not do them justice.

The seats were comfortable, the bathrooms were clean, the staff had a positive friendly attitude and the snack bar was well stocked. The only negative feature were that the escalators weren't working and a number of people had difficulty navigating the quantity of steps to get to the theater. Elvis, the movie was stupendous. The photography was breathtaking, the music was amazing, the acting was awe-inspiring, the story was spectacular and overall Elvis the movie was very impressive. The cast is to be commended as it was evident that a huge amount of effort went into transporting you back in time. It would be most appreciated if the theater would make an effort to bring back more movies like this one. Out of 14 theaters, at least one could be for people who enjoy a story that doesn't include violence, profanity, deafening sound effects or a bizarre story line.

I have great things to say about them I just wish it would be a little bit less run down and cleaner that you're not so grossed out to sit in their chairs and put anything down on the floor. Worth for sure $5 buck Tuesday! You can bring food in from the supermarket (double bonus!). Conveniently located inside the grocery store so you can grab a drink, snack, go grocery shopping, watch a movie, buy a card, get a shirt, all in one stop shop. I think we like those kinda spots am I right? Regular movie tickets on other days are like $9. Definitely don't think it's worth it. The room of the screening is a little small but the screen is nice and big. Only downside: every time someone opens the door of the theatre to come in/out all the light comes in and interrupts the whole movie. Again, for $5 I'll take it! Don't expect much, low expectations are always better but I think for a Tuesday, I don't mind.
