    I'm not going to write a book on this one... It's a movie theater. But it's also my go to movie…read moretheater... Purchasing tickets online is easy enough and I can add the tickets to my Apple Wallet. A plus in this age of electronics. You can still purchase tickets old school at the counter when you arrive too. When you purchase your ticket (either at the counter or online) you select your seat. When you present your QR code at the counter you are given a paper ticket. Sometimes there is an attendant to take the paper ticket and sometimes check in is with the person who gave it to you... Inconsistent...yes. A problem...not really. You can pick from multiple experiences in high definition and audio. I'm cheap and just usually go for the standard format. Concessions are typical. This complex has the lounging recliners in all their theater choices. I enjoy these. The seats are wide so you're not cramped at all and they're pretty comfortable. The one downside that the theater has no control over... People. And people can suck sometimes... - If there are over 3/4 of the seats empty in a theater... Why do people have to pick a seat right next to an already occupied one? Especially when that person is not part of their party... When you pick your seat you can see which seats are already taken. - Why do some people feel the need to remove their shoes and socks in the theater...? That's just gross. smh - And chew with your mouth closed... I shouldn't be able to hear you crunching on your popcorn three rows away. I get it. You paid for your ticket to get in just like I did. You do you buttercup! I don't expect people to be in suits and dresses...but there is such a thing as being TOO comfortable. Well... That turned out to be a little longer than I had initially planned I guess. It is what it is. Lol

    This 8s our go to theater because we just know where everything is and what to expect. They have a…read morewide variety of food and drinks including alcohol. You can get a Cinemark membership for reduced rates or free movie tickets or discounts on snacks and no processing fees for ordering tickets on line. You can also do similar thru Fandango. The staff here are always pleasant and helpful. No issues with quality of food or drink. But the prices are high this I advise the membership programs to help reduce. The seats are fairly comfortable unless you get one of the few that are very old and disheveled. (there's a few speckled around that need replaced). Bathrooms always tidy.

    This is an entertainment complex in the heart of Ankeny. It has a 12 screen movie theater, a video…read morearcade, and a bowling alley. They also have a full bar in the front and a patio area outside. They have a large private parking lot and is very clean, updated and trendy. This place is perfect for date night, family night or a gathering with your co-workers. Be on the lookout for the complex's Game Night. I did not visit the movie theater part. I spent my time at the bowling alley and arcade. They also have a private room that can be rented out for special events such as birthdays and corporate parties. The lanes were $30/lane (up to 6 bowlers for an hour), plus $5/per bowler for shoe rental. The lanes were very modern. They have electronic scoring and there are bowling assist tools available. As I mentioned they have a full bar. They also serve food. The menu is light, but would do if you were really hungry. I got a BLT with a side of broccoli. It was good, buit bowling alley food. I would not come here just for the food though. The staff there was very friendly and helpful. The arcade is decent sized and has your typical games were you can earn points towards cheaply made but overpriced toys. The arcade was also very clean. I do know that if you are going to check out a movie, they recommend that you skip the line and purchase your tickets in advance, online. This is a fun spot to be and you can easily spend a few hours here. I highly recommend checking this place out. It will not disappoint.

    Don't come on Tuesdays, especially running any sort of not early! Nobody at the counter for 10 mins…read moreand then when trying to make a drink the bartender wants to chat more than make the drinks. From ordering to getting the drinks took another 10 mins. It's like they have 4 supervisors that talk and walk around then 1 person actually working everything
