    Went to watch a movie with the family. We saw the movie Sinners. The movie sucked lol The seating is very old school. No reclining chairs here. They have the traditional chairs, and they are terribly uncomfortable. Very small too. I barely fit my butt in the seat lol That's how small it was. Not comfortable sitting through a movie like that. They need to update this theater. It's old and outdated. Add some reclining chairs, so guests have some space. I felt crammed between two people.

    Small popcorn is still small, but the small soda is surprisingly big! Well, girthy anyway.

    The Context: Many years ago this was a popular cinema to go to because it had what was then cutting edge stadium seating and surround sound, all located in the popular South Coast Plaza neighborhood. I used to go here all the time because it was safe, close to shops and restaurants, and always had the latest movies. Today, it's features are no longer cutting edge, so it was interesting to revisit so many years later. The Good: It still shows most of the new releases, is clean and organized, and provides a safe cinematic experience in a popular area. Plus, the employees are friendly enough. Oh, and I was shocked to see how large the small cup was! It's not tall, but man is it girthy! A pleasant surprise, as I was expecting a tiny cup at a steep price. The Bad: What once was herald as ingenious is now rather inconvenient: stadium seating. Back in the day, this was great because it elevated each row so everyone had a clean view of the screen (unlike theaters before the late 1990s that only provided a slight slope upward and resulted in shorter people sometimes having to watch a movie over the back of someone's head). But when compared to the theater designs of today, which is more like rows of boxed seating with lots of space and fully reclining seats, stadium seating offers stiff chairs and little leg room. I'm a dude of average height and my legs felt cramped. And when people slid into their seats behind me, they often bumped the back of my seat or even my head. The Ugly: The bathrooms. Why? 1) there's only 1 men's and 1 women's restrooms, and both are on a second floor while all the screens are on the first floor. That means having to take an escalator or set of stairs to use the bathroom. Super inconvenient. Plus, in the men's restroom there are no dividers between the rather close urinals. What is this, a 1980s dive bar? The Conclusion: I used to love coming to this theater for years, but with time and recent innovations, my preferences have changed. Given how expensive tickets, popcorn, food, and drinks are these day -- and how convenient it is to stream movies at home -- I'm not sure how often I'll return here. Simply put Metro Pointe is outdated and being left in the dust.

    I came here to watch Wolverine and Deadpool, which was AMAZING! Definitely recommend watching that movie if you're in any of those characters. I came to the theater on a Saturday and it wasn't too busy. We had a showing at 4:30 and it wasn't too busy. I hadn't been to the theater in years, so a few things were new. There was no one at the theater booth, but we had our tickets on a QR code on our phone. The person scanned our QR code, and we walked in. We went in line and got some snacks. I got a large popcorn, a large drink, and pretzel bites. It came out to about $30. Pretzel bites took a little while to get to us, so we waited about 10-15 minutes for it. While waiting, we need to use the restroom, which is upstairs. They also have an elevator to get there, but if not, you'd have to take the stairs. Once ready, we went in the theater, and I noticed they didn't have reclining seats. I was really hoping for reclining seats, but I guess it costs extra. I feel like that is a necessity for me now. Anyway, the movie was great and the theater was good too. I miss the reclining seats, though.. I wish that was standard.

    I came to this Regal on a value day so the tickets were $6 each. The popcorn was yummy!! I watched Bad Boys and it was good!! I really liked it and highly recommend. The theater was clean and I enjoyed my experience here 5 STARSSS!!!

    Another Simple Favor

    Definitely not my favorite place to go for a movie however it does the job. Came here for a movie preview and I'm doing the review since I came. Definitely has that dated feel. When I went to the concession stand, they were quite busy however they were fully staffed. There were several things on the menu that I requested, however was turned down because they did not Have it in stock or prepared such as a hotdog. When I asked for a hotdog they said I would have to wait another 15 to 20 minutes for it and wanted to charge me for it and then have me come back and grab it which I thought was a little weird so I declined that option. I ended up getting two popcorns and two sodas and when I asked where I could get a straw they told me I had to go behind the concession stand, which was very inconvenient in distance. They also didn't have any boxes or carriers which I found a little bit odd Since other theaters tend to have those types of things. Once I was in the theater, I noticed that the stadium seating was a little bit more condensed than the newer ones. Although the seats did not recline, They did do a little bit of rocking which was better than nothing. I also did find it weird that only the last rows at the top of the stadium seating had the nice space between the aisles where everybody else was pretty much Having to deal with minimal space between Rows. Overall, if you're just there to see a movie and don't care about spacing and comfort this is the place to be, but if you're more concerned about comfort and distance from people, you probably wanna go to a newer movie theater such as an AMC that has the reclining chairs.

    1. The popcorn and soda are good, but it's the same as other locations! There is not much special food options at this spot! 2. The spot has old retro vibes! 3. The staff were friendly and quick with my order! It took less than 5 mins! 4. Parking may get crowded on the weekends, but there is a free parking structure! 5. They did not have recliner seats in my theater room! Note: Bathrooms are located on the second floor! Photo: Small Popcorn and Small Soda

    Ceiling lit walk way from the roof parking lot to the theater

    This Regal Edwards is at the far end on an elevated level at the Metro Point right next to the free parking structure. If you park in there, you can drive all the way up past the 3 levels to the top roof parking and walk straight to the box office under a blanket of lights strung above the walk way leading to it. Oh and the restrooms are on the second level once inside. Oddly enough, there are no listed showtimes displayed anywhere for the movies playing, there is only a list of movies out front. I guess they assume that you will already know the time for the movie that you want to see before arriving. I just hope that they don't ever withdraw or change their times that might be posted on 3rd party sites, like Fandango, the way that the Regal theater in Foothill Ranch did 2 weeks ago.

    Old school movie theater, meaning the seats do not recline. They have special low pricing on Tuesdays so that is worth it. Just not a comfortable seat if you are going for a 2+ hour movie.

It's had it's share of anchors leaving (think Circuit City and Forever 21), but the owner (Irvine Company) continues to pour money into it, to keep it fresh and relevant. As an example, when Forever 21 declared bankruptcy and closed its store in 2019, the building was demolished in 2022 to make way for a new Restoration Hardware gallery store...which we found to be quite nice. Parking is plentiful, (mostly) covered, and free, with a pedestrian bridge on the 3rd floor taking one to the main part of the mall. And it seems to be one of the most dog friendly malls in the area, which is saying a lot. One will see a lot of signs for something called 'The Lot', which is a high end, ultra-luxury, cinema/cafe/restaurant, geared towards the clientele that the area feeds.

[Parking]: There's a designated parking structure for the village. The rate is $10.00 for the first hour, $2.50 each 15 minutes, and $50.00 daily max. Visitors can get a complimentary all day self-parking when spending $250 or more at any of retail merchants within the village - just show receipt(s) totaling $250 or more to the parking attendant. Complimentary 1 hour self-parking with validation with any tenant listed in the Lido Marina Village's directory. [IMPORTANT SPECIAL NOTE]: Herst Coffee Roasters does NOT validate the parking ticket! Only the following dine & drink places validate: Circle Hook, La La Land Kind Cafe (coming soon), Lido Bottle Works, Malibu Farm, Nobu, Skal Pizza, and Zinque. Basically there's no easy "affordable" way to get your ticket validated except for one tip. [PARKING TIP]: I was able to get a free validation at Malibu Farm Lido Home Collection. I simply walked up to the cashier counter and said that I need ticket validation & cashier validated my ticket without asking for any receipts. [Experience]: The village has a nice shoreline view. Check the event page on their website for live music on the Lido Deck performance, floral workshops, etc. [Conclusion]: If I compare this village to other high-end shopping centers in LA/Orange County, then I think retail shop options are pretty mediocre (I like 2ND & PCH a lot better). Good spot to take Instagrammable pictures, but expect doing mostly window shopping than actual shopping at this village.

The charming atmosphere makes it perfect for a leisurely stroll, shopping, or enjoying a meal by the water. Parking can be tricky, especially on weekends, since the area gets busy. There are metered spots and some paid parking near Nobu if you drive into the smaller side streets, you may get lucky there. Once you're in, there's so much to enjoy: unique shops, coffee spots, beauty salons, and a wide variety of restaurants. Live music is often hosted right outside Nobu and Zinqué, with plenty of seating and a wonderful waterfront backdrop. Overall, it's a must-visit in Newport Beach for both locals and visitors.
