As a seasoned Sundance Film Festival alum, the Prospector Square theater is always my favorite…read morevenue at the festival. Why? The seats are old movie seats so they are comfortable, they are arranged in tiers so you have a clear view of the screen, the screen is an adequate size, the projection and sound is clear, the ticket holder and waitlist lines are indoors and out of the cold, and there's a snack bar in the lobby. Even better, there's a free shuttle bus stop directly outside the door and the terrific Grub Steak restaurant across the street. Clean, large restrooms too. What's not to love?

Wow! I'm really doing it! I'm Sundancing, gang. Full disclosure, I've been so happy recently I'm…read morebeginning to fear for my Yelp integrity (wink/wink). Everywhere I walk I've got FIVE STARS on the brain. Night two of "high culture" at the festival is in the books & I gotta say I feel about 10lbs smarter already. Prospector Square is far more intimate than Eccles Theatre so the lines aren't nearly as long & you don't have to stand in the cold. They also offer concessions while you wait and you can bring your goodies into the show! Eccles seats a little over 1300 people & is JAM PACKED for each showing. Prospector Square seats about 360 movie fans. My guess is if your film plays at Prospector Square during Sundance, it's like making the JV squad in high school. Coach Redford gives you a pat on the butt and says - "You're getting there little buddy. Now go home, practice dribbling with your left hand and come back when you're four inches taller." I didn't really know what to expect sitting down for this film. The Hollywood businessman who brought me to Sundance told me that "all of these films are kind of the same." I hate to say it but he was wrong! While this film was ALSO very slow, methodically paced & dramatic, the miserable situation was COMPLETELY different. This film dealt with a bastard fisherman who suffered from severe muscular dystrophy and lived with his poverty stricken mother who forbid him from spending time with his childhood love. AND it was in Spanish! Talk about ART! I think most of the foreign films play at this theater (JV). There's something about subtitles that just thrusts the misery of a situation right out into the audience. It's tricky watching subtitles, though. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to being paying attention to the faces the actors are making or the little text that's shooting across the screen. Sometimes I get confused & start making my own faces while reading the dialogue. No matter how I handle it I know I'm smarter for trying. They had a Q&A w cast and crew but I didn't stick around. I was exhausted from reading. Hola Amigo! You'll get 'em next year. So much culture. Prospector Square gets FIVE STARS!!

Megaplex Downtown Daybreak - Kids meal (3/5 stars)

Restaurant Review Only!!!…read more We walked in with HIGH hopes. We dine in the theater all the time and absolutely love the food (even with the limited menu), so we assumed the sit-down experience would be the same vibe, same flavor, same magic. It was... not. Let's start with the good: the ambiance is gorgeous. Classy, clean, comfy booths, great lighting. Our waitress was great -- attentive and kind. No complaints there. The gal who brought out the food, however, looked like she had rolled out of bed and maybe hadn't met a hair brush or dry shampoo in a week. Not exactly the impression you want in a kitchen staff delivering your food. We ordered: nachos, French dip, chicken quesadilla, and a kids chicken strip + fruit. The kids chicken? Chewy. Rubbery. My daughter took one bite and decided fruit was the safer investment. The nachos were decent but painfully bare. The cheese sauce covered maybe 60% of the chips, there was basically one scoop of pico trying to stretch across the whole platter, and the meat chunks were so large you had to engineer each bite. Also... rib meat on nachos? I'm open-minded, but I'm not fully convinced. The chicken quesadilla was solid and generously filled -- maybe almost too generously? It somehow crossed into "so loaded it forgot to be cheesy" territory. But it was fully eaten, so we'll give it that. Now. The French dip. The one I was most excited for. They tried to reinvent the wheel with short rib and Gruyère. Not traditional, but I was willing to trust the vision. The plate comes down -- no au jus. So the girl goes back to get it. While waiting, I snap a photo and notice a hair standing straight up out of my sandwich. Love that (at least I saw it before eating...?). I calmly sent it back. The rest of the table had finished their meals before my replacement arrived. So that's always a bummer to eat alone. I do appreciate that they remade it, but the second plate came out looking rushed and messy compared to the first. Presentation matters. Like the fries were reused from my first plate and just dumped or something. Flavor-wise? I ate about 90% of one half and called it good. The flavor combo just wasn't my thing. Now -- because fairness matters -- we have to talk about the in-theater dining (same restaurant, totally different experience). We LOVEEE the tavern fries and the pepperoni pizza. Like, drooling level. Just make sure the pizza actually comes with the fresh basil and the tavern fries have the green onions. When those garnishes are missing, the flavors feel heavier. When they're there? Elite. For us? Theater dining forever. Sit-down dining... probably not again. Ambiance: 10/10 Theater food: Elite Sit-down experience: A reminder that not all menus are created equal

Ok this review is a little complex since this facility has so much to offer…read more I will totally give 5 stars to the theater and the arcade! We've seen movies here multiple times and will continue to come back. My toddler loves the arcade and always asks when we can go play the "light up games". Some of the theaters are smaller, so just pay attention when you are booking tickets. The mega theater is amazing! The reason for 2 stars is because I wish I could review the restaurant portion separately, but I can't so here we are. If I could give 0 stars I would. I will give them that it was the week of Christmas but the experience was awful. We got there and were seated almost immediately. The waitress took our food and drink orders off the bat and we thought "perfect!". Wrong. We proceeded to wait 40 minutes for our food to come out. When it did arrive it was all cold. We also ordered the garlic cheese bread as an appetizer (came out with the meal) and it was AWFUL. I didn't know you could ruin cheese bread, but they did. It was so spicy, and the cheese wasn't even fully melted. I'd heard great things about the food, but this experience makes me think they prioritize the theaters and bowling over the sit down patrons. The chicken strips meal was good, burger was good.
