Great First Experience at Cineplex VIP!…read more My partner and I recently visited Cineplex VIP at Downtown Markham for *The Odyssey* on Tuesday, and we had a really enjoyable experience! The Tuesday offer was around $19 per person, which we felt was a good value for the VIP experience. We arrived about 10 minutes early and spent some time relaxing in the VIP lounge before the movie. The lounge was comfortable, and there was a bar where you could order both alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. There are nicer, cleaner washrooms too. One of the highlights for us was being able to borrow a closed-captioning device, this service should be available for non-VIP seats. As non-native English speakers, we really appreciated this, especially for a movie that was almost three hours long. The captions made it much easier for us to follow the dialogue and enjoy the movie without constantly worrying about missing something. We also ordered boneless chicken wings directly from our seats. The food was decent and reasonably priced, and the service was excellent. The staff were friendly, attentive, and happy to help. We even asked for some water, and they brought it right to our seats. Overall, this was our first Cineplex VIP experience, and we really enjoyed it. The comfortable lounge, closed-captioning option, seat-side food service, and friendly staff made the whole movie night feel much more relaxing and enjoyable than a regular theatre visit. For the Tuesday price, we definitely felt it was worth it, and we would happily come back again! There are some snack deals on tuesday too, please refer to the pictures.

The staff were pretty quick in providing the food and were attentive to our requests. The theatre in the VIP section is pretty spacious and clean.

And then a reboot of another Ghostbusters movie; looks as dreadful as King Kong versus Godzilla! And too many commercials. Still, nice to get back into a theatre!!!

It was the first time that I have tried the recliner chairs and the chairs were leather chairs, we do love it. More comfortable individuals and more space in between each row. That's a super cool place to go. However, they don't have too many locations, less rooms and smaller room only. The beginning advertising was not too long. There is the snacking counters to sell the popcorns and drinks as same as cineplex. Now I like here more. But they don't have points or memberships to reward. That's still fair to try and love it.

Really impressed by recent upgrades…read more Imagine Cinemas offers the same big screen showings at a smaller independent venue. This theatre has been around and the most unique aspect is its comfortable recliner seats. Be sure to reserve & sit near the front rows for the big screen experience. The theatre visitors have steadily increased since the theatre upgrades and tickets can be ordered online ahead of time, before pickup at the gates. The screen is bright and the Imagine XP cinema rooms no longer have screen glare during bright scenes. We do enjoy the convenience of coming to this theatre. The Imagine XP cinema room featured larger 4K laser projection and a booming Dolby Atmos surround sound that even gave me Apple Watch hearing warnings during prolonged immersive scenes. The leather seats were also relatively new. Skip it or hit it? The great experience in a recent matinee will encourage us to come back to this Imagine theatre more often.

The service is always great and the popcorn and drinks come quickly and the way we ordered it without issues.

We did not expect this at a cineplex restaurant and definitely not this quality for $5. Margaritas were also tasty, but be mindful that not all are part of this deal.

I don't usually come all the way out to this theatre unless there is a new Chinese movie showing…read more We came here yesterday during the day, and we were the only ones at the theatre lol. The gentleman checking us in was friendly and courteous. I think he was also the one who started our movie, and cleaned up after when the movie was done XD There are no more staff selling tickets anymore; they are all done at the ticket kiosks right when you enter. The gentleman scanning the tickets also stands in the very front near the entrance doors. After you enter, you can then purchase your snacks and drinks, and play arcade games. This theatre seems to be in the middle of getting rid of their red old/dirty theatre seats - I guess it is finally time to change them! The washrooms were also tidy and clean.

I'm never going back there again. Horrible experience.

If I knew how comfortable the seats were I would've chosen this location more often. They have recliner seats here, making it very comfortable especially for younger kids. There's a lot of leg room, very spacious. The theater is clean and well maintained. I certainly would come back again to catch another movie.

Tips: - Collect Scene+ points when you buy your movie…read moretickets, food, and drinks either through the app or at this theatre. - The VIP food service is cool. When you're ready to place an order, wave at one of the staff members who will come to you to take your order. I have visited the Shops at Pickering City Centre (it's Pickering Town Centre's rebranded name) a couple of times recently. I noticed this Cineplex nearby. I had never seen a movie here until last Saturday. I decided to see Michael in a VIP movie theatre. I have a surplus of movie tickets and Cineplex gift cards to use. I felt that using my gift cards for lunch would be a nice treat. I used one of my tickets to reserve a spot to see Michael. I then drove over to this theatre after running errands. The downside coming here on a Saturday is that there aren't a whole lot of open parking spaces. I saw one person drive off. I swooped in and backed my car into this spot. Otherwise, I would have had to park a lot further. Maybe coming here on a weekday would be better parking-wise. I walked into the building. Your regular cinemas are straight ahead. VIP is on the right. It felt fancy being greeted by a friendly male staffer with a pool table and pretty chandeliers behind him. He let me know that I was in VIP theatre 2, which was to my left. Nice! I walked by the bar. It was also pretty and rather posh. I needed to use the washroom. The women's is set up like the other VIP ones that I have been to. There's memorabilia everywhere. The stall that I used was clean. It was great. When I walked into theatre 2, two female staffers welcomed me. One asked if I needed any help finding my seat. It was my first time here. I gave her my seat number and she was great pointing out where it was. She also said to wave at her if I wanted anything to eat or drink from the VIP menu. I looked at it. I immediately knew what I wanted. I waved at them to take my order. One of them came over, who was friendly and great. My order consisted of the following: - Wagyu beef gyoza - Corn ribs - Large Diet Coke I paid with two Cineplex gift cards that were loaded digitally in my Cineplex app. I managed to use up the balance on one of them. I also earned Scene+ points for this order. Easy peasy! I got another friendly woman who first brought over my Diet Coke. It was cold and lasted for the entire duration of the movie. It was great. She came back with my food, along with wet wipes and napkins. I thanked her and had lunch. The wagyu beef gyoza were delicious. Each one had a lot of yummy filling. The wrapper was crispy. There was a lot of sauce. It had more ginger than soy going on. It was enjoyable. I loved the corn ribs. They were lightly battered and had the best seasoning. The corn was perfect. I loved them so much. I loved the recliner. I got to put up my feet to watch this movie. There's also a USB port to charge your phone if you need to. So practical! Michael, the movie about Michael Jackson, was excellent. I appreciate him even more after having watched this movie. I liked the picture quality and sound. I was fully into watching this entire flick. So good! Afterwards, I used the washroom again before I headed home. I walked by this theatre and there was a Michael Jackson cutout. It wasn't here before the show. It should have been! It's perfect to pose and take photos. I loved taking in a movie here and getting the VIP experience. The parking situation needs help on a Saturday. I should try taking in a movie on a weekday and see whether parking is better. (184)

Cineplex Cinemas Empress Walk is a nice, very clean multiplex movie theatre in a great location if…read moreyou are in the North York area. It's across from Mel Lastman Square. A very convenient location to get to on public transit since it's on the TTC subway line and connected to the North York Centre subway station. It's beside shops, restaurants and dance classes. Staff here are friendly. Personally I think it's an underrated spot. The giant escalator ride up to the movie theatre is neat since it overlooks 3 other floors. There's a small arcade and seating area inside. It's family friendly. They have a good selection of Hollywood blockbusters and IMAX 3D movies, Korean movies, international and indie films. I came here with friends to watch a comedy movie after having dinner and drinks nearby. We had a great time.

It was a really great film experience but it wasn't an authentic IMAX theatre as I was told by staff. It's a regular theatre that was converted. But it was the awesome staff I wanted to thank! I ordered my ticket at the concessions stand and James was very friendly and helpful. He even explained in detail each of the 3 print outs of receipts and tickets he gave me! As a long time film goer at Cineplex this is very rare but I loved the extra service from James. Give this man a raise now! I also wanted to thank David the ticket taker because he took the time to take a photo of me in front of the cool Fantastic Four movie display.

Also, the tickets ($5 per ticket) were cheap for the Labor Day weekend (specifically the 5 & 6). The movie was fun. The end credits were funny as well. Since this Cineplex isn't my usual Cineplex, I sort of missed the right turn on the main entrance despite the traffic lights and GPS. I guess it's could be the new buildings and construction in front. Anyways, there's lots of parking. This location and the individual rooms (auditorium?) remind me of the Cineplex in Morningside when I used to live near there. Side Note: I find it interesting that the Minions movie has slightly fewer theater times/slots and came 2 weeks (July 1st) after compared to Toy Story 5 (June 19).
