A few years ago, this theatre competed directly with the bigger chains. However, with Dolby+++, wider screens and recliner lounges available today, the theatre no longer targets most first run customers. However, Cinemark competes very favorably on price, friendliness and a good selection of films that are in their second showing. Then, there are a great number of Bollywood films available for those who appreciate Indian culture.
I like the theatre quite a lot. There are films that just don't do well on a television screen, even if that screen is 50"+. In addition, there are a number of films that I won't pay $12 to see at a first run theatre that I will see at Cinemark because of price.
All in all, it's an enjoyable theatre experience although those viewers who demand only the latest and best might be disappointed.
The manager is on a power tripMr. Franklin..would not let my 21 year old daughter take my 14 year old to see an R rated movie. He stated the law was 25that he was cracking down on it..I looked up what the law was, and it stated 21. He then stated that personally he would not let his kids watch an R rated movie..really? How unprofessional and rude! I told him that is his preference. He made up his own rules and he lost our business for sure..they went to a different theatre, and had no problem! I will be contacting his boss about this.
Best movie theater around !!you have to wait a few months to see new movies but its well worth it! Me n my boyfriend just seen. Wonder woman in real 3-d for 8 dollars!!!!! The snacks are not to high you can get the refill buckets every year around Christmas and refill all year !
We go every week . I love the popcorn and drink refill and the price for these is a little less than other movie cinemas. I think that the price you pay for the movie offsets all of this. My husband and I can go on a date night for around $20.00. Great prices for families and they have a variety of movies (usually something for all ages). It is a little dated, but, still fun !
I love it!
The staff is always friendly. They are always helpful.
The facilities are pretty decent and if you factor the price in, you cannot beat this theater. Off course it could be better but nothing to complaint really.
We wanted to see a movie while we were in Greenwood this afternoon but we didn't want to spend a lot of money so we went and saw Boss Baby at Movies 8. It cost $2.50 a piece to get in so that was great. The concessions are full price but we were more willing to pay since the box office was so cheap. The popcorn was very good and the Diet Coke was also very good from the fountain. The only thing we didn't like was the outdated theatre. I an so used to stadium seating now that it is very weird to see anything that isn't like that. We will go back to Movies 8 the next time we want to see a movie in the Greenwood area.
I happened to be in the area and googled "movie theaters near me." This was the nearest result, so I stopped in. I went to pay for my ticket and the customer service representative said, "That will be two twenty five." I looked up from digging in my purse and said "Pardon me?" "Two twenty five," she repeated. I laughed in disbelief as I paid her the $2.25. "We're a budget movie theater," she explained. The only other experience I've had with a budget movie theater is one that shows movies that have been out for months and are no longer in regular theaters. This theater was clean, had current movies, and was a great price for a Saturday afternoon!
Unfortunately a bad visit. Although I've been to this theatre many times over the years and enjoyed every visit, the experience just wasn't the same today. The seating is worn and very uncomfortable. What I believe to be bed bugs chewed on me for 30 minutes until I decided to leave. The manager was very polite and concerned, notifying me they just sprayed for bed bugs 1 month ago. I received a refund and left in disappointment never intending to return. 😕 I will miss ya.
This place is absolutely amazing when you realize what you are paying for. Most of the movie tickets are a buck a piece and you get some great audio and visuals to follow. Concessions prices are a bit high but that is always to be expected of for a business who needs to make money. As for the movies they are great as well and are cheaper to see because they have been out for a bit already in major theaters. So if there is a movie you want to see I would absolutely wait until they have it showing here! Besides that everything was fantastic.
We went to watch “Why Him”, purchased tickets at the ticket window a bit early to avoid lines and had no hassles, nice staff, although the tiny marquee sign with the show times posted is way too tiny to read unless you are standing in front of the window. We purchased popcorn and coke. The lobby and restrooms were clean. The movie was great. Afterwards, we couldn’t find a trashcan that wasn’t overflowing so we had no choice but to strategically place our trash on top of the heap. Not sure how often they show movies that are current (meaning still at the regular theaters) but we had a great time, staff was very nice, the place was clean overall (except the full trash cans at the end of the night) – good deal for a $3 movie ticket! We will be back.
I have been going here for at least 7 years. It's a great price for movies. It's always clean. Not 1 complaint from me!!
Theatre doesn't smell fresh. Sometimes it seems to be that the sound system can be still better. One good thing for Indians is that they have a chance of watching Indian movies here.
