Megaplex Cinemas has come in and completely transformed the old and outdated Redstone Cinemas! The moviegoing experience here is so much better, and the upgrades are immediately obvious the moment you walk in.
The old theater now feels so new. From the floors and paint to the overall design, it now feels modern, sleek, and genuinely comfortable. The lobby and auditoriums have been totally refreshed, giving the entire space a much more upscale and polished feel compared to what it used to be.
One of the biggest improvements is the seating. They now have roomy plush recliners thatt make watching a movie incredibly comfortable. These seats recline a lot, and they are also HEATED which is super nice when it's snowing outside. Assigned seating is another welcome upgrade, and the ticket kiosks in the lobby make purchasing and check-in quick and convenient.
The theater also has new digital projectors and improved sound systems that deliver strong visual and audio quality. There are also some self-serve features, including a soda fountain and Icee machine with refillable drinks. The concessions are where things get a bit tough. Prices are ridiculously high, especially considering the portion sizes. A small popcorn ($8) isn't even enough for one person.
Parking is still easy and free, and there are plenty of nearby restaurants if you want to grab a meal before or after your movie. Bargain day is Tuesday, so plan to go then and save some money on tickets. It's also when the theater is the most crowded, however.
Also take note that not every auditorium is equal. Some theaters have noticeably small screens and a smaller number of seats, and the screen placement continues to be an issue. The screens are mounted way too high, so sitting in the front rows can lead to a strained neck and a less enjoyable viewing angle. Choose your seat carefully.
It's hard not to be excited about the renovations that Megaplex Cinemas has brought to town. These are HUGE upgrades that have turned a dated theater into one that's super comfortable, modern, and a convenient place to see a movie. read more
