Michael Q.

We paid $58 for two Mission Impossible matinee tickets; we were shocked as this is the most we've ever paid for movie tickets. Unsure about "world's tallest," but the theater is impressive when you walk in. We also enjoyed all the murals on the way in with some of our favorite movie moments (e.g., Heath Ledger's Joker). Yes, the IMAX theater's sound/screen/seats are both modern and impressive. While we enjoyed the experience, we're unsure if the price point meets said experience.

I came, as many will, for a massive IMAX screen. The building from the outside looks like a tiny podunk theater with a separate massive IMAX section on the side, and that's pretty much what it is. The entrance had machines to redeem an online ticket (which is advisable if coming for an event movie as I did) or buy a new one, and half of them were broken. So too were the escalators leading one up to this huge IMAX screen. But the end product was as advertised: the screen is huge and the sound bone-shattering. The reclining seats with little tray tables were suitable enough to sit in for a three-hour movie. The restrooms were not remotely plentiful enough to handle the people flooding in thereafter. So basically: big-ass screen, not a lot else positive to say for the place. And it was an expensive ticket. But for the right event, I'm happy enough that I went.

Back again, same review, but with some photos. Also, the cushion on one of our seats was sliding off, and both escalators are broken. This place needs help before it totally detriorates. That said, still the best way to see a movie nearby. So consider this a plea for help! Consider simply painting the entryway black? Or matching however the space is set on the left side the same on the right for some basic consistency?

View from Row F in IMAX theater. Glass wall intrudes bottom view of screen. This row not recommended.

Watched the new Top Gun Maverick movie at the IMAX. Movie was great! Theater is nice. TALLEST IMAX: After recent upgrades, this theater claims to have tallest IMAX in the world. To be honest, I wouldn't have known if they didn't tell me. All IMAX are big and this didn't seem to be any different. AVOID ROW F AT IMAX: this is middle row with isle in front, so you don't have anyone sitting immediately in front of you. Seems like prime seats. However I discovered there is a glass wall in front of you that protrudes up to impact view of bottom of screen. I posted picture to show the issue. TICKET KIOSKS: You use kiosks to pickup tickets you bought online, or to buy tickets buy tickets on premise. There are only three, so be prepared for a line during busy times. BAR: They have a bar area if you wish to order adult beverages. This is not something you find in just any theater. FOOD COUNTER - Enjoy free refills on popcorn and soda fountain drinks. It is well managed and the line moves quickly. I was impressed! The butter and large selection of cheesy shaker toppings are located off to the side of the counter to move you out of the way.

Looks like this place has had a little bit of a facelift since my last time here 2 years ago. This time our theater had recliners in every row. They still have the popcorn seasoning for free by the butter stations, which is awesome! Their concession items and ticket prices are lower than competitors, which I greatly appreciate. You can still see a movie without spending $100 here. They also have a sweet IMAX! Usually you can book tickets online, but their site wasn't working all day. We showed up and got tickets at the kiosk. Only downside the tickets were sold out and we weren't able to reserve online earlier in the day because of it. All ticket sales are done through the kiosk now. No face to face ticket sales. All seats are reserved. They do have handicap seating in each theater.

HUGE IMAX Screen. Loved seeing Thor here and we had the theater to ourselves. Great sound and amazing screens. Can't wait to see another Blockbuster here.

Worlds tallest imax

Very nice theater, clean, friendly staff. Saw Dune 2 in world's tallest imax. Dissapointing that when the screen is dark, you can see the shadow of the backs of the chairs due to the lights on the floor that are left on during the movie along with the lights on the sides of the theater that impede on the screen too. Considering that a large portion of this movie is in caves and dark, it was pretty noticeable. For $25 I hoped this would be the best theater experience ever, but I couldn't get over it.

This is a really clean movie theater. It has the recliner type chairs and regular chairs. You actually choose your seats when you get your tickets. They offer all the usually candy and popcorn but also pizza. The matinee show is $7 a ticket. The kids that work there are always nice.

We were visiting Savannah and ended up at the movies 2x…read more The theater is clean. The employees friendly. You pay for snacks and scan tickets at the front and then popcorn and drinks are self serve. I have never been to self serve popcorn but I loved it. You can fill and butter as you see fit. The seat backs are too high and I had to recline the seats in front of us so we could see the whole screen. It wouldn't be as noticeable if the seats were set up as stadium seating. There is no wall that blocks the light when the doors are opened, so that is also a downside to NCG. Since we don't live in Savannah we had to rely on fandango to find us a local theater. The AMC is general admission (no reserved seating) so we chose NCG. We would return, but they do need to rethink design.

The self-serve popcorn and drinks made everything so easy and convenient, and the whole experience felt extra comfortable from start to finish.

"Classic" is one way to put it and if you're all about "newness" then skip it, but stepping into…read morethis theater is a bit of a trip back to the early 1990s and even some of the smell lingers. Paper tickets, too, which are fun but rare these days. The concession area is modest and they aren't pushing $15 popcorn and $10 soda on you the whole time, either. There is LOTS of room outside the auditoriums and inside them is clean and in good repair. The bathrooms could use a thorough cleaning but they aren't smelly or gross. Overall, this place is a nice step back in time and a nice alternative, especially for older movie fans.

This is not the AMC experience that Nicole Kidman was talking about!…read more At one time, this movie theater was the place to see the newest release. Unfortunately, that hasn't been the case in the last 10-15 years. The theater is significantly outdated and regular maintenance has been neglected. There is only one theater that has updated seating while the other theater have the traditional stadium seats. Some of which are damaged; broken/missing armrests. The same can be said of the restrooms - needs attention and major cleaning. Missing marquee sign outside some of the theater rooms. Concessions were simple and what you'd expect. Nothing to brag on. The same can be said about the customer service. Saturday afternoon and only one person is workings at the ticket/concessions while three other employees standing as ushers to direct you to the appropriate theater. Looking for a movie experience more inline with what Nicole was referencing? Head over to NCG on Victory or out to Pooler. Only interested in seeing a movie and don't care about the overall experience, this AMC location may be just for you!

What a fabulous experience my family and I had! This was the…read morefirst time any of us have gone to a drive in movie! We arrived early, and parked where our movie would be playing. Everyone that arrived for the movie did different things... You can back in and either set up in the bed of a truck, open your trunk and sprawi out, set up lawn chairs, or sit in your vehicle. We hit the bathrooms before ordering our food, and they were SPOTLESS! The stalls are tiny, but, that was easily forgotten with how clean it was. We then headed to the consession building. They have a cute covered patio, with lots of tables and seating.There was table set up with all of the condiments you would need for anything on the menu. They have something on their menu for everyone! The consession has a lot of teenagers working there and every single one of them was attentive and extremely polite! They also did a fabulous job making our food! We ordered hot dogs, chicken, nachos, mozzarella sticks, soft pretzels and funnel cakes! Everything was delicious especially the funnel cakes!!! You've got to get one!!!! As we were walking to our car, we met the owner. He was such a nice guy and he thanked us for coming! Once we were back in our vehicle, we tuned into the radio station that would be playing the sound for our movie and got ourselves situated before the movie started. They started the movie right on time with no issues.The commercials before the movie took you back to the 50's and the quick history lesson about when the drive in movies came to be was so fun! The picture and the sound was great! We all ( including my 2 teenagers) had a great time and easily decided that we would absolutely be coming back!!!

They have improved the seating greatly - the seats are absolutely perfect and there is lots of space in front of you now so people can walk by when you're reclined. Seats are heated and the air temperature is very cold. I like that. Come dressed to keep you warm or even bring a blanket. The concessions are still really expensive but you know what, the movie tickets are cheap and this is how the theater makes some money. Picture and sound are excellent. Staff was friendly.

I put no salt on our popcorn and it tasted like someone over-salted it. I did bring it back and the gave me a fresh bucket but it tasted the same. it was so bad we couldn't eat it and had to just throw it away after the movie. it's a shame because we live right down the road from this theater but we go for the full experience which includes popcorn. I think I'm going to have to cancel my membership and start going to Savannah or Pooler. we have been to both the AMC classic in Savannah and the IMAX in Pooler and they have great concessions and the popcorn is far superior. It may seem like a little thing but it's actually an important part of the experience that seems to be lacking at Cinemark. Please fix this problem.
