Also if you don't purchase one of these overpriced snacks they don't even check tickets. Definitely understaffed and management doesn't care about the state of their theaters.

While the Angel Theatre had plenty of charm, the place was disgusting! The lobby had no trash cans and there was miscellaneous stuff scattered everywhere. The bathrooms looked like they had not been cleaned that day. The theater seats were covered in who knows what, tables and cup holders were disgusting. Not sure how this happens but even the movie screen was filthy! You could see the dirt and water marks running down the screen. To top it off the staff looked like they hated their job. The place got busy and there was only 1 person helping. This theater has so much potential but seriously lacks management or owner direction! This place looks like it hasn't had a thorough cleaning in a long time! I felt so gross and grungy afterwards I couldn't wait to take a shower.

Just wanted to say how amazing Crystal was. Thanks again, girl! :)

Not every movie theater has these reclining seat seats, and I can definitely think the stuff for making sure that they are up-to-date and and clean. I will definitely be coming back to see more movies soon!

DO NOT see the ModPlayers improv shows here, its not worth it. my friend and i felt like we were being held hostage :'(

Went to see The Castle in the Sky. My boyfriend and I like seeing the Ghibli Fest movies when we…read morecan. Well, turns out if you pay for a ticket to go to these theater, you might not even get to see all the scenes advertised. All the remastered Ghibli movies are advertised to have 'exclusive' behind-the-scene after-screens or a foreword by someone who was apart of production. A true Ghibli fan knows these are actually pretty cool. I know not everyone cares about the after-credit scenes but I do. Well, in the middle of the credits rolling with beautiful ghibli music playing, the screen goes off and we are told to leave because the run time went over and people are waiting for The Odyessy. We come out and the manager is yelling at her worker who already has a line and people buying tickets/food/drinks to hurry up to clean the theater. So not only did we not get to see all the scenes we paid for, we were unceremonously kicked out before our time should have been up, and the manager was being rude to a worker in front of everyone. Real professional. If you know you need time for cleaning and previews, plan ahead instead of ruining the experience for a loyal customer! Edit: I really hate leaving bad reviews. Although there are times the manager has rubbed me the wrong way, my boyfriend and I come regularly. We have a popcorn pass and we are always checking the website for movies. I'm sad to say it just is not worth it. It's not worth spending money at an unprofessional business that disrespects my time by not scheduling properly. Mistakes happen but this could have been done with much more grace.

Maybe word of mouth and their calendar that I didn't know about was enough, because it was almost a packed house. 5 out of 5 stars for me! Can't wait until next year!

I visited Lodi Stadium 12 Cinemas in Lodi, CA [109 N School St] on Thursday, 08/06/26, around 9:30…read morePM. I came here because I was so excited to watch the Spider-Man: Brand New Day movie! When I approached the ticket counter at the front, I was assisted by Ben. Ben literally had the friendliest, kindest personality ever! His customer service exceeded my expectations, and it was genuinely positive. It was refreshing to experience that, thanks to him. The movie ticket I purchased was roughly $18. Of course, the movie was entertaining and spectacular. The inside of the theater was comfortable, especially with the reclining chairs. The visuals were displayed nicely throughout the film. I will continue to come back to this cinema. It's my top choice that's conveniently located near my home (~15-minute drive).

The only game in town. (RIP Sunset, I wish that I had known you, but I was just a kid, that didn't…read morelive in Lodi yet.) When it sells out, time to go to Stockton or EG. This did happen to me once in the last six or so months I've lived here. My buddy and I had to go to Stockton for Zootopia, which had been out for months by that point. So, the only game in town means plan ahead. I've never seen it dead here before. So far. What do I know, these aren't the reviews you're looking for. Move along. Lol I do love reviewing the cinema though. Lodi 12 is usually a happening spot when I come. And it is at least competitive with other theatre chains in the area. It is part of the Santa Rosa Cinemas, a smaller family-run business that has, from what I can tell, a handful theatres in Central (and Ventura?) California. Though it's probably not much older than me, the building has a bit of a retro feel, with big lobby windows in a semi-circle and bright yellow marquee at night. I am a sucker for a retro cinema if you've read my other movie theatre reviews, but any cinema with character will be appreciated by me. The only upgrade I would prefer would be to get rid of the need to print a paper ticket, even if you buy online ahead of time. Whoever is cheaping out on a scanner for QR codes, get with it and save some trees. It would even be okay if they were old school ticket stubs for the nostalgia (I love cinema nostalgia and will go out of my way for it), at least they would look pretty in my novelty shadowbox, but nah, they're just receipt roll paper. Alas I digress; I don't like wasting time doing that when I could be in line for popcorn or taking a selfie with Heathcliff. Some auditoriums are nicer than others but I believe all have recliners and the little swivel tables that make me feel like a baby. I have not seen any evidence of wear and tear on the seats like in some of these pictures on here, eesh. They have multiple screens that utilize Dolby Atmos / Ultimate Digital Cinema surround sound, and at least one auditorium that has Real D 3D for the 3D enjoyers. As a four eyes, making myself a six eyes for the rare, usually James Cameron backed adventure is about all I care to partake of. Sound and screens are great and have been recently upgraded. I do enjoy coming here and feel the amenities are satisfactory. Snack and food selection is good, and the popcorn is fresh. They have a wine and beer kiosk as well, though we usually come after a meal and thus have not yet partaken of libations here. This cinema is in downtown Lodi, and does not have a parking lot. Street parking is usually not far away. Maybe see you later for another totally necessary screening of My Dad and His Son Baby Yoda. This is the way.
