Came on a Thursday night and absolutely loved every bit of it. If you've debated going, do it! Great show and will definitely be back again.

Shocked... Hubby and…read moreI hadn't been to the movies in a hot minute, so we took advantage of a free night together. Unfortunately... eeek. First, I do want to give credit where it's due. The welcoming team was friendly from the moment we walked in, and the bartender was wonderful. Even though they were out of every wine I asked for (seven different selections!), she really tried her best to find something I'd enjoy. The only wines available were bottles at a much higher price point, which was disappointing. I'm still wondering what happened to their wine selection. Hubby did enjoy a nice cold beer served in a frosty glass, and that was perfect. Dinner was actually pretty good. The steak was cooked perfectly, and the lobster mac and cheese was tasty, although there wasn't much lobster to be found. Now for the theater itself... The seats are definitely showing their age and are getting a little rickety. Service was almost nonexistent. The one bright spot was a food runner who kindly pointed us to the QR code for the menu and even offered to bring us a printed menu. He was great. We ordered our movie snacks, but that's where things really went downhill. The popcorn was as stale as stale can be, the M&M's tasted old and a little funky, and somehow my club soda came with about four ice cubes and wasn't even very refreshing. The movie itself was good, and we still enjoyed having a much-needed date night together. Overall, though, it's sad to see this theater slipping because it used to be the place to go. I really hope they can turn things around. In the meantime, we'll be on the hunt for a new favorite theater. I'd love to hear everyone's recommendations!

After a recent visit, there have been several upgrades and things are looking up!…read more First off, the parking garage (tucked away in the back, in case you didn't know!) got a paint job, and looks a lot friendlier. Fun colors! The theater seems to have really upgraded its higher level theater situation. By that I mean IMAX, RPX, and 4DX, etc. This past weekend I saw my first 4DX movie, and let me tell you, it was an EXPERIENCE. You need to go into it literally thinking about a rollercoaster. I was truly not expecting the seats to move as much as they did - we're talking lifting, tilting, twisting, and turning. There are light effects, wind, snow, water - the works! During the previews they give you kind of a practice run, and I was worried I was going to hate it! They basically showed off all the effects at once and it was overwhelming, but once we were in the movie, it was awesome. We went to see Resident Evil, which is loosely based off a video game, and seeing this film under those conditions really brought everything to life! We had a ton of fun, and with the right movie would definitely do it again. Definitely recommend, but only if you know what you're getting yourself into! Don't choose this option if you are prone to motion sickness.

This has become our boring married couple Friday night. First Thai food then a movie - all near the…read morehouse. VIP is great with lower attendance, free popcorn and soft drinks (Pepsi products) and a full, not busy bar.

Cute drive in, playing the latest movies! Address is now 45…read moreDelano Ave. The experience is heavily based on the weather outside, but the theater operates rain or shine. Bring a fan or chairs to set up outside if you're not watching in your car. Recommend to buy your tickets a head of time: the attendant can help purchase tickets but the way also check for your headlights to turn off during the movie. Tickets don't open until the day or so before movie. Audio comes on a FM radio channel- car battery needs to be on or bring a radio. We arrived @ 7:30 for a 9:00 PM movie, there was already a line for prime spots but it's worth getting there with about 1.5 hours to give to allow for checkin, finding a decent spot, and getting set up/going to the bathroom (porta potties were quite clean). They have a small concessions stand and one food truck when I went. Ground was wet so had to deal with a not so great parking or walking to the porta potty situation. Very barebones place but you get the experience you prepare for!

I LOVE drive-ins. I love the nostalgia & the way it feels like a family-friendly event! We just…read morecame (thursday night) to watch Spiderman: Brand New Day & thankfully it wasn't as packed as we thought it would be. We showed up right at 7:30 to make sure we got a good spot, but honestly it didn't get full until closer to 8/8:30. Unfortunately there weren't any food trucks, but the concession stand had plenty of snacks. The movie was great, with not too many interruptions & I like that there were a lot of families there! Now considering there were families there I was kind of bummed when it all of a sudden started to smell real loud . People hotboxing their cars, couples smoking outside, but the best part was the EMPLOYEES smoking a blunt in the back. By the back I mean near the port-a-potties that are located in the back of the small parking lot. These weren't kids in high school that were tryna be cool, these were grown adults. Do what you want. Do it at home. But don't be bringing it around little KIDS & especially when it's your place of employment.

The ambiance is great and such a vibe. Come early before your movie to enjoy the scenery and the yard games. Claim your seat though if you're picky like me. This was a great date night!

For the price of the tickets, this rooftop parking garage cinema was not as nice as we expected. It was giving the vibes of a dog park, and it is only on the fifth floor, so there isn't much of a view. The screen quality was pretty bad, and there was a random white rectangle in the middle. They gave us headphones for the audio, which were fine, but it would've been nice to also have some level of audio playing externally for when you want to take your headphones off for a bit. They have a bar, concessions, and you can order food from your seat with a QR code, but we brought outside food in. The tickets were advertised for $20.75, but after fees and tax, two tickets totalled to $51.70. The chairs, albeit cushioned, were not that comfy and quite small. There were no cup holders or counters to put our food or belongings on. We got the regular Adirondack chairs, and we realized when we got there that this meant we were relegated to seating on the side. When purchasing tickets online, it showed rows that went all the way across with the same type of seating. They instead had it where the loveseats were in the middle, and those would've added at least $20 more to the cost. Make sure to use the code WELCOME10 to save 10% or put in a student or military discount code if you qualify to save a little bit.
