I've been to this IMAX theater many times -- love it -- and may have even written a review. This…read moreis unusual in that I'm reviewing an experience where I *didn't* get to see the movie. I arrived an hour before Dune to be sure to get in line and get a seat. As I was entering, the fire alarm went off and people were ushered out and away from the building. An hour later we were let back in even while the strobe lights were still going off. We were given "updates" (no new info really) periodically and even mildly entertained by a genial staff member who offered some jelly bean trivia. An hour in we were told the movie was being cancelled and we would get free tickets to return. I want to commend the audience for staying chill throughout and as far as I could see not getting upset or outwardly annoyed. Disappointed yes, antagonistic, no. But most of all I want to commend the staff for the way they handled the matter. To a person they were pleasant, calm, apologetic and courteous. They seem to be a well coordinated and cohesive group, which is not something one often sees in movie theaters. Three cheers to the Jordan's Reading IMAX crew! -----Update: I returned later that day and was able to see Dune, which was awesome. There is nothing like this theater, with it's floor to ceiling screen, surroundsound and "buttkickers" (vibrations in your seat when appropriate). There were about 7 tickets of 500 left when I got mine so I was advised to get there an hour early, which I did. There were already about 75 people in line. We were let in about 20 minutes before the show was scheduled to start and I had no trouble getting my preferred seat near the top and center, but I would NOT have wanted to be near the end of the line. I think sitting at the end of a row would take some getting used to but be manageable, but I can't imagine anywhere in the first 5 rows would be enjoyable. Takeaway: get there early people!!

You stand in a line for a bit until they let you in and when you leave they make you walk all the way up and leave that way so beware if you have some mobility issues you may need to have them help you.

Unless you live downtown or work in the city and catch a movie on your way home there isn't much reason to visit this theater. There are more screens here than Assembly Row or AMC Causeway, but it's less modern. Due to the number of screens there are sometimes events that are only shown here within the area as well. I can tell that this used to be a very nice theater. However, it's in desperate need of renovation. It probably wouldn't take much. Refreshing the lobby, replacing the carpet in the hallways, and maybe an update to some of the larger auditoriums with recliners or AMC's club rockers. It doesn't even need to be all the the auditoriums, especially since there are 19 of them and even though they are just standard seats (outside of the IMAX and Dolby Theater) they're still decent. A word of caution that the IMAX here is a scope screen (so, not as tall as an IMAX usually is, even at a typical chain theater). The Dolby Cinema is good though and better than this location's IMAX. They're still the two best screens here and I would try to book either if you visit this location over any of the others. AMC could return this to a flagship theater experience by renovating common areas and say... 2 auditoriums (into Prime, or additional Dolby Cinemas). Right now though, it's dirtier with fewer amenities and a more difficult to reach (unless you're already downtown) than your other options in the area. All screens are laser projection though, and even 25 (yikes) year old Harry Potter looked fantastic (but Causeway and Assembly are also all laser, too). The employees looked to be doing their best, so I hope AMC invests the money to update this theater.

Another perk to the particular theater is that you have several dining options in the theater as well as outside the theater in Patriot Place. This theater also has a mini food court where you can eat before a movie and a small banquet room for birthday parties. The staff I interacted with at this location were pleasant and professional. I would definitely recommend this Showcase if you are in a touristy type of mood.
