Terrible experience today! Came in over 20 minutes early for the movie. There is some sort of group function going on. This team wasn't prepared! Been in line at the concessions for a while and will be missing part of the movie! They've got three people working the concessions checkout--pretty poor planning Harkins!

Sunday, 4/10/2022 - Went to Harkins Theater to watch "The Lost City" staring Sandra Bullock, Channing Tatum, Brad Pitt and others. Address is 2550 W Happy Valley Rd, Phoenix, AZ 85085. This theatre is located in a shopping plaza. But I can't remember the shopping plaza name. Upon arrival: Pros: 1) plenty of parking 2) there's other little shops around the theater. So if you're still waiting to watch your movie, you can go walk around or eat. 3) you go inside to buy your movie ticket. The lady at Guest Service was so nice. 4) you get to pick your seats. 5) lots of goodies you can buy at the concession stand. The young people helping us on the other side of the counter was very nice. 6) glad there's a spot in the arm rest to put your drink. 7) women's bathroom was clean. 8. There is a game room. Cons: 1) guess I'm used to the leather, reclining chairs with the foot rest where I'm from. But the seats here don't recline and no foot rest. Just straight chairs. 2) you can't move the arm rest up. 3) lots of popcorn was underneath the arm rest where I was sitting at. Dirty. But I just used my napkins to push it off. Conclusion: Nice theatre. Roomy. Spacious. Nice staffs with good attitude and great customer service. Even though the theater seats weren't too comfortable (cus I'm used to the ones where I came from), I like this theatre. Hopefully they'll send their staff to try to pick up/clean up after each movie so the new incoming patrons don't have to go in and clean up what the prior customer left behind.

Nice clean theater. Went to see the new Godzilla Kong movie. Lots of action, and a couple of goofy parts but still, fun to watch.

Oh man...change the seats and I can give 5 stars easily. I am spoiled by AMC recliners and hence this place seats sucked badly. Infact, we got back pain too. Rest everything is incredible about this place. Best location. Within 2 miles from our home. Super huge lobby, Best looking threatre from outside and inside both, Nicely built architecture for the screens, huge screen, lot of seats in every screen, nice selection of snacks and food which are lot cheaper than AMC. These many good qualities but just seats are problem, atleast for me. I would love to return here and infact ditch AMC if I could get recliners and spacious seats.

Love this Harkins! I use the app to check the movie times, you can pre-pay online or you can go to the normal line and they now allow you to pick your exact seat location with the screen. This location is always clean, has fun lights, billboards inside and is always nice and air conditioned. If you have little ones they even have a day care so you can watch a movie and your little ones can play while you watch the movie! How cool is that? Hayyyy, date night for mom & dad! You can buy a reusable cup and bring it back for lower cost drinks of $1.50 and you can sign up for the rewards program, I get a free medium popcorn on every visit with my rewards program. Movie options are always great and the venue has tons of shops and places to eat walking distance outside in the Mitterrand shopping center!

My husband and I had a date night here a few weeks back and until that point I had completely forgotten how much I enjoy going to the movies. Ticket prices are higher then I remember but with that being said, the economy! Haha worth it, we even got the popcorn special (if I remember correctly it was a large popcorn, two medium drinks, and a candy of your choice for $20). It was great being in person and the staff were friendly. Would highly recommend!

Ask the Community - Harkins Theatres - Norterra

Is there any plan to add reclining theater seats anytime soon?

At this time, nothing has been announced. That being said, we are planning on upgrading the majority of locations in the next few years. We are currently upgrading our Tucson Spectrum location and our SanTan location. Hope this helps!

It's been awhile since asked: Does Norterra 14 have the recliner seats yet? Thank you kindly!

At this time, we do not. However, we did switch to reserved seating! Hope this helps!

Does this theatre have reclining seats yet?

This location does not have recliners, but we are testing reserved seating. Hope this helps!

Does this theater have a bar?

I don't think so but the Harkins at Arrowhead Fountains 18 does!

My brother worked for Harkins back in high school and I got into a lot of free movies back then. I saw all the big blockbuster movies back in the 1990s at the old Cine Capri in Phoenix and the Camelview 5 in Scottsdale. I am all about the movie experience, especially movies that have a lot of action and special effects. I still enjoy dinner and a movie date nights. This Harkins location is in North Scottsdale right off the 101 and has plenty of parking and restaurants all around. I was recently in the area and caught the latest "Superman" movie in the CINÉ XL theater. Harkins Theatres Scottsdale 101 14 has 14 screens and all the updated stuff like stadium seating and electronic reclining seats. The CINÉBAR has a variety of wines and rotating craft beers. Food can be ordered ahead of time on the Harkins mobile app. A Cine Capri-style auditorium was built at Scottsdale 101 in 2003. It is called CINÉ XL and has an extra large screen, a gold curtain that opens up before the movie begins and Dolby Atmos sound with a 4K laser projection. There is also a small Cine Capri museum here with pictures of the old theater in Phoenix. I like going to Harkins Theatres because they offer the best deals for a regular movie goer like myself. I'm part of the My Harkins Awards program where you get discounts after so many visits. They have an annual Popcorn Perks program where you can get 36 medium popcorns for a year for $40 (one popcorn per visit). I also purchase the loyalty cup and get my $3 refillable drink at each show. I save on admission price by seeing most of my movies during matinee hours. Going to the movies doesn't have to be expensive if you look for the deals. Sometimes the concession lines can be long at Harkins. A lot of young folks work at Harkins and can be a little slow at times. Plus certain people bog up the lines because they order way too much food and snacks for a two hour movie. But I still enjoy my movie experience and what Harkins Theatres has to offer.

We saw Marty Supreme. Since its been so long going to a movie theater, some things have changed. Of course the price of a ticket is up, food prices are up, they even have bar. When you buy your tickets you can choose where to sit. We like sitting in the back row . Mainly because my wife is short and can not see over someone who has a big body. The best part of going to the movie was the seat . Nice and big and it opens up as a lounge chair. Very comfortable for a 2 1/2 hour movie. The sound system can get loud at time when the music in the film is played. The theater itself is very clean. Over all a good experiance. Don't know when we will head to the movies but I would come back to this theater.

AMC is our go-to movie theater and we honestly prefer it over the nearby Harkins…read more One of the things our family loves most is the self-serve drink station. My daughter is very particular about having light ice, so being able to make her own drink is a big win. The same goes for the slushies, our son loves mixing flavors and creating his own combo. The variety of soda and flavor options is great, and for adults, it's nice that there's also a bar available if you want to grab a drink. We recently rented a private theater for my son's birthday, and overall it was such a fun experience. He brought 15 friends to see the new Mario movie, and the staff really helped make it great. Annie, who checked us in was fantastic, she even let me store our cupcakes behind the ticket counter so they wouldn't melt in the car, which I really appreciated. We enjoyed those after the movie outside in the courtyard. We arrived early to order snack packs for the kids, and everything was so well organized. Each pack had popcorn, candy, and slushy cups ready to go. One of the employees (wearing a Luigi hat) went above and beyond. He had everything loaded on a cart, brought it into the theater, and helped pass out everything to the kids. It made the whole process so easy. I wish I remembered his name because he was great. The only hiccup we experienced was with the movie timing. When booking the private theater, it showed a 1:00 PM start time with about 25 minutes of previews. However, once we were seated, the movie started about 10 minutes early with no previews at all. We had a few kids arriving later, expecting to make it during previews, so this threw off our timing a bit. The staff did try to fix it by stopping and restarting the movie, but ultimately there were still no previews. It would be helpful if that detail was clarified during booking so parents can plan accordingly. Even with that small issue, the kids had a great time, and the staff was very helpful. AMC will definitely continue to be our go-to theater.

Definitely won't be returning to this theater…read more I chose this theater because of its location and the IMAX theater option. When I entered the theater and walked up the steps there were no row letters to know which row my seat was in. I had to ask another customer to make sure I was in the right row. According to another customer the row desigations are on the other side of the theater. The theater still has the old style seats that dont reclined, the seats are very worn and show their age and there is very little legroom. The theater was very direct with food on the floor. The sound was so loud during the 25 minutes of previews that I wish I had had ear plugs. Luckily the sound volume was appropriate for the feature film. I expected a lot more for my ~$23 ticket. I saw the same movie the week before but at a theater that showed it in Cine XL and the senior ticket was less than $19, the seats reclined and even with seats reclined there was plenty of room for people to walk by. This is just one experience. Others may have a different experience in a different auditorium.

Did not miss anything; fortunately, they were still showing "Coming Attraction." Baz Lurhmann Directed the Biopic featuring Austin Butler. The footage is as Energizing as Elvis's performances.

It's an older theatre made evident by the chairs and size of each theatre (or maybe it's because the movies I see are shown in the smaller ones). However, I love coming here and supporting these filmmakers and seeing wonderful movies. It's also close to home so that's always convenient. The staff is friendly and I prefer buying tickets in person because you save on the service fee that's tacked on when you buy online. I also had two free tickets so that helped cut down on costs. You can also join their rewards program for free and get points when you buy tickets and concession items. I don't love reserving seats in advance, I miss the days where you had to come early and search for seats. It was kinda fun in a way. Overall, I'll keep coming here as long as they keep showing smaller films.

Initially you walk into a large interior with plenty of tables and a bar and restaurant with gelato and so much more. You can then order any food and drinks in your very comfortable seats in the movie theater itself. I went this past week with a friend to watch the release of the latest Avatar movie. We arrived a bit early to get something to drink and watch the previews and arrange our seats accordingly before the movie started. We pressed the button on the seat and the staff showed up quickly so that we could place our orders in person. I ordered a milkshake with chocolate gelato while my friend ordered a soda. The theaters themselves have large screens where you can see well from any seat. If you visit the RoadHouse Cinemas website (https://www.roadhousecinemas.com), you can see showtimes for upcoming movies, join their newsletter, join their loyalty program (for a free ticket before your birthday), and can even fill out a mystery shopper form after your experience for a chance to win a pair of movie tickets and $40 credit. You can also see upcoming events and a their menu. RoadHouse Cinemas is open 365 days a year and intentionally offers a movie experience combined with a special dining experience. They have an award-winning chef and restaurateur. They also have a creative full bar featuring wine, beers, and specialty drinks. They also have state-of-the-art digital projection and 7.1 Dolby Digital Surround Sound. Needless to say, you're in for something special by visiting this theater!
