If you live in Kips Bay or Murray Hill, no need to go further away. This theater draws a crowd but is well kept and enjoyable. Cheapsnacks across the street too!
I used to hate AMC theaters but this one has REALLY stepped up their game. The large red chairs full recline and have foot rests. The plus assigned seating makes the theater going experience not blow.
One of the more pleasant movie theaters in the city because its not overly crowded. Ticket machine pro-tip -- Swipe with the stripe UP! Its counter-intuitive yes, but everyone struggles with it.
I prefer this location over Union Square for more popular titles. Still crowded, but stadium style seating and a little off the beaten path is a nice change of pace.
This is the best theater if you want more of a neighborhood, or suburban feel. Also, it's pretty easy to get a taxi after and a couple of cute Resturant's nearby.
My favorite movie theater for blockbusters in Manhattan. It's sufficiently far from subways, it doesn't get too much pedestrian traffic, it's clean and spacious.
Snacks next door are always a last minute save if you're running late. Great theatre to avoid the crowds at union & times sq. Fake IMAX so don't waste your time or money. Great weekday date night.
A good way to check out the Kips Bayneighborhood. Grab dinner or drinks at one of the many great restaurants or bars near by. Make a fun night out of it.
reserved seating is great - FWIW, the seats are separated enough that it’s not like two people sharing one (compared to a place like Alamo that feels more couple-y)
My go to theater which consistently has projection/sound issues but guess what you get a free ticket every time !!!!!!!!!!!!! Capitalism backfires!!!!!!!!!
A nice theatre it has the original posters for old movies that came out years ago. It also has Sistine chapel of movie actors all over the ceiling. Very extensive food menu for a movie theatre
Sunday nights are surprisingly crowded. Do your best to arrive early to get a good seat. Try not to side on the wings because the speakers are quite loud and ruin the left-right balance.
So the 'fake' IMAX screen size is not the real deal...Regardless the sound in theater 10 (IMAX) is awesome! Want to feel the movie? It is worth the extra cost.
Pros: Snacks are good. Pretzel bites are fresh. Theaters are a decent size with reclining chairs. Cons: Bathrooms are usually dirty & I’ve seen a mouse in one of the theaters.
If you're having problems pooping in the upstairs main lobby bathroom, the Terminator theme can be heard from the arcade. Inspiring in a tough situation.
