Public Service

July 06, 2018

What I appreciate most about this theater, and this chain, is the psa before the movie letting people know they're jerks for kicking the back of the seat and texting during the movie. Unfortunately, some jerks are still jerks, but at least the theater is trying to do something about it. PUT AWAY YOUR DAMN PHONE! STOP KICKING THE DAMN SEAT!

BS 3D Price Gouging

December 29, 2016

Great theater, but pure BS that this theater couldn't offer regular playing times before 5:40pm that are NOT 3D times. I would recommend you boycott this greedy un-caring non family theater purely on the basis's of no convenient regular movie veiwing times.

Good Experience but Movie times are Weird

December 09, 2016

I have been to this theatre many times, but the timing of movies seems weird. Maybe it is just the site malfunctioning but (for films that have a 3D version) all of the regular showings seem to be in the late afternoon while the evening showings are ALL 3D, which makes no sense to me. I just want to see a regular movie on a tuesday night with a friend, but 3D makes me motion sick. It is kind of a terrible set up. Unless it is just the website being weird.

Row behind us constantly talking throughout the whole 3 hour movie !!!

March 27, 2023

Everything about the IMAX theatre was great for the movie John Wick. But we had reserved tickets ahead of time for the 3 of us on Row F (Seats 16-18). The row above us it was a group of 4 mainly the two females constantly talking in their Language the whole 3 hour movie ! My boyfriend has asked them kindly in the beginning of the movie if they could please be quiet. But they kept ignoring us. Then 10 min after I had sternly turned around and said, “could you please shut up”. They did for a bit then continued on with the yapping amongst themselves. While the other guy kept tapping the back of my brother’s chair the whole movie as well. I didn’t want to leave in the middle of the movie to call for a movie team member Or security as I did not want to miss the movie. What can be done if you there is disrespectful and inconsiderate people like this? I pay to enjoy and watch a movie in theatres , and not to pay for someone else to just keep talking! Ruins the whole theatre experience. Please help.

Bad Popcorn

February 12, 2014

I just attended a movie at polo park. Great movie, heat was on, staff friendly, but your popcorn was a failure! It was the worst popcorn, lots of kernals, terrible. The sign says fresh and hot, I left over 80% of my popcorn sitting in the bag on the floor. My next movie I'll make sure to eat before the show because your popcorn needs work. Have you lowered the grade of popcorn? When you upgrade please let us know and we will try it again. Till then no way!

No help available

November 30, 2017

Was meeting a friend and her daughter for Wonder. Showed up at theatre >30 minutes before movie was to play. No one present at ticket selling till. Went to purchase a ticket at the electronic kiosk and was blinded by the sun. Besides having trouble seeing the screens could not get the curser to move beyond the first page. Tried other kiosks. The screen read that the movie was sold out for this date. Someone should always be available to purchase tickets from and someone should be there to assist people with these machines when they are having trouble (just like at the airport). Please get some blinds or move the kiosks out of the sun. You will have more and happier patrons.
