The largest IMAX screen in the country, with dual IMAX laser 1.43.1 capable projection. There’s a reason tickets top $27, and a reason people pay it.
Oh we just adore this theater. Always clean, warm, well maintained. Staff is helpful and very good looking. We have been going to this theater for years and we love it. Everything about it reminds us of the nostalgia of movie making. And how about the murals? Wow
I just left from seeing Jurassic World Dominion .. This theater is Awesome if you’re in the area definitely stop by also I want to give a shout out to Zavier at the concession stand he was phenomenal… I most definitely will be back
Decent movie theater, depending upon which theater you are in. The main, IMAX capable, theater is large and comfy, even with a balcony section you can sit in. However, some of the other theaters are not as nice. They are much smaller (which is understandable) but also much less comfortable. Overall, not bad for a 2 hour movie, but also not my first choice of theaters in the city.
Always a great experience at AMC Lincoln Square. Going against the norm and watching a movie in the early morning is pure bliss. You can avoid the crowds and fully enjoy the movie without distractions while sipping an iced coffee.Today’s movie of choice was Uncharted featuring Tom Holland & Mark Walburg. It was action packed, fun and exciting throughout. It gave me a modern day Pirates of the Caribbean mixed with National Treasure vibes.The theatre staff this morning were friendly and great!
I had difficulty with the kiosk and a clerk had to ring my ticket for me. Upstairs, one of the slushee machines was out (of course the one closest my movie). The popcorn was sitting there, so it was room temperature. I didnt see the condition of the seats until the lights came up at the end of the movie. The seats (in my aisle) need a cleaning or at the least, a lint rolling. The picture and sound was good, I would return based on that. The bathroom needed basic attention, nothing concerning. The overall appearance of the building was neat and clean. The staff were at best patient, accommodating, and able to multi-task (serving two customers at the same time); at worst sufficient but not overly enthusiastic but courteous.
AMC LINCOLN CENTER. This place is located extremely close to Central Park.Accessible by 1,2 and AC line trains.This place is built up. There are multiple floors for screenings. The premium offerings (IMAX, etc) are located on the most top level.Pros: location, sizeCons: not all theatres have the updated seating.I would recommend for avid movie goer and hope you get the good seats!!
Decent theater as long you dont go to the Dolby Cinema, supposed to have the best image quality but its not. I watched the Dune and the new Batman in Dolby Cinema and the image was not razor sharp, it was soft just like in their regular theaters. The two projectors they use were not aligned properly. So, safe your money and go to a normal screening.
Another old AMC. If your looking for state of the art technology then your in the wrong theater. The chairs are old and mainly the cushioned rocking seats and not the recliners like they have listed on their website. There concession stands like most AMCs were out of stock with a lot of there items and to call the staff friendly would almost be a stretch. The theater appeared clean but I didnt get the feelings there was much sanitizing going on in between shows. For a theater in one of the most fast paced and fashionable trendy cities in the world its just dissapointing. I definitely do not want to go back here and I doubt I ever will. Take it from me if your gonna spend the money go to another theater this one just isnt worth it. Even the sound wasnt that great, I didnt know there were theaters without surround sound so that was an unpleasant surprise. This is a theater you want to use for school trips and nothing more.
My favorite AMC in town! I use the AMC app and purchase my tickets in advance, never wait in line. Staff are attentive and venue is clean. Location is also very good, easy to plan lunch/ dinner prior or after the movies in the various good options close by.
What can I say? This is the greatest theater Ive ever been to. The staff is super friendly, the venue is clean, and the IMAX is absolutely worth the price of admission. Its even nice to see a non-IMAX film here too. I have not been to the Dolby Cinema in here so I cannot comment on it.
It was my first time ever going to that movie theater. It was very clean and spacious. I will definitely will be going back often. If you want to kill time while waiting for your movie time to start next, the gap store is literally right next door.
The screen was not iMax, much smaller almost same size as regular screen. The screen is very very dirty n made movie bad quality. The sound wasnt good! The new glasses with side panels made lenses sweat the whole time. It was too warm in theater. Wasnt a good experience.
I had a good time with my family at AMC Lincoln Square 13 today.Its a nice theater for the whole entire family, or solo.It has 2 floors a total of 9 theaters. They have elevators, and escalators, and easy access for the rest room, and a good variety of snacks to choose from.
Great location, extremely accessible to public transportation. The staff deserves 5 stars because everyone who works here is always delightful and helpful. The facility itself needs upgrading in comparison to Kips Bay and other AMC Theatres in the area.
I preface this with the fact that Im a Regal Unlimited member. I was glad that the theater was clean and the staff I encountered were efficient. My problem was with the seating. I was in the handicapped area because of my mobility issues I was uncomfortable throughout the movie. Ive gotten accustomed (Regal) to arms in the seating are moveable thereby making it much easier to get out and in the seating. I enjoyed the movie but spent the entire time VERY uncomfortable.
Dolby and IMAX are the only good about this theater. Customer service is a joke. There are no employees in the Box Office area. Its all machines. Looking for assistance and most of the employees are working in the food area since the other areas are understaffed. But clean restrooms and theaters. Soda fountains are still sticky
Ive been coming to this theater forever. The people that work here a nice enough, but the efficiency of the IMAX concession stand needs to be stepped up. I love this theater, but the line management needs improvement.
Wont be coming back here. The cloth seats were all pilled and gross looking, the arm rests seemed like the padding was taken off leaving a full grey plastic piece that looked super dirty. Aside from the cleanliness, the slope of the seating section was not great and peoples heads were blocking the bottom of the screen, not great for a movie with subtitles, and Im 64!!!
The IMAX theater on the top floor was nice and clean. The comfy leather seats vibrated, but didnt recline. Obviously the concessions were overpriced (e.g. $6 for a 1 liter bottle of Dasani water). Also, their first 10am matinee showing of the day started half an hour LATE after previews, with the doors to the building locked until 9:30am, but I cant say if thats a regular pattern since I dont visit often enough.
Great Cinema for IMAX and more. Had a great time going for the Marvel Movie Marathons.
I think this AMC has the best IMAX screen in New York
Clean and comfortable. Great seats, plenty of legroom. Concession stand pops fresh popcorn and has wide variety of snacks. But stuff is not cheap!
This movie theatre is a net positive. They are very accessible by train, with twelve theatre rooms and IMAX. But they do not have the comfy signature seats, and if those are important to you you might want to take the train up three stops to the AMC 84th st 6, which has those seats but less theatre rooms.
Went to go see Dr. Stranges Multiverse movie! Upon entering, we were 100% lost and walked in 2 circles. Our auditorium was #13 but we only had seen theaters 1-12. To try our luck, we went downstairs to the higher numbers; they told us to go to the 4th floor. When there, we were greeted by The Sunshine Man whos energy is impecable! He made our trip prior to the movie. Albeit the wrong theater again, his interaction with us was amazing. The actual IMAX experience that we had was phenomenal. The sounds were spectacular, and the visuals were astounding.
Digital theater (2) is the best. The recliners there are very comfortable. Other auditoriums are just alright. The staff is friendly & courteous :)
The seats were fine and I had a good time watching Dr.Strange and The Multiverse of Madness but the building itself is confusing to navigate, you can only get popcorn and snacks from one particular floor and there werent enough benches or seats outside the theaters.
Terrible experience trying to see The Batman. We had to wait in line for 30 to 40 minutes because they only had one person checking tickets and vaccinations which made everyone late. After we entered, there were people sitting in our seats (they had double sold our tickets). We hopped around trying to find two seats together but every time we found some someone else told us we were in their seats and we had to move. We went to the front counter and told them our problem, to which the manager replied Didnt you try sitting in the front seats? He didnt offer any compensation, and there were 7 or 8 other people in the same situation as us. We ended up having to sit in the very front corner for our three hour movie which made it impossible to get into. Save your money and go to a different theater.
I wrote this while I was on the line at 12:06 am on 3/4/2022.I am currently on the line to watch The Batman on IMAX. We pay a little more than $30 for our seats.The showtime started at 12 am but with previews, it’s set to start at 12:20 so basically it started.I, with many other visitors, missed at least the first 10 minutes of the movie.This is unacceptable.Oh and did I mention that I am on a cane, unable to walk due to knee surgery?I approached the theater staff and I noticed that there was only one person, ONE person checking vaccine information and theater tickets. I informed him about my leg injury and that my leg felt tired from standing in line & I kid you not: he gave me a what do you want me to do it about it attitude. This has not been my normal experience in an AMC Theater but a person like that should not represent your company.
We paid $36 for two tickets and saw Downton Abbey on screen 7, but the imax above us was so loud, we kept hearing the acoustics throughout the movie and it ruined our experience….too bad cause the theatre was clean and seats were fine.
From a technical perspective, best IMAX in the tri-state area. TBH, I dont care about the rest. Watching a movie filmed for IMAX here is worth a trip. Dune was phenomenal.
Went to go see JJK 0 movie seats were the best non recliner I have been in. Service was good and surfaces were clean.DISCLAIMER: I am 13Service: 10/10Food & Drink: 9/10Seats:8/10
Awesome🤙 theater for Familia and friends!!!Pues Mijos 🤙🤟🏼✌️👍💚🌴
Coolest movie theater Ive ever been in. Felt like I was in some amusement park or something. Seats could be updated, but still am enjoyable experience.
Best IMAX theater in the city, possibly the country. Its at least as tall as a six story building. Book rows G or F.
I love this theater. The screen is pretty and they also got IMAX. I was hear earlier for the very first time to watch Avengers Endgame. The associates where very helpful because I had issues with my ticket and one of the associates fixed gave me a pass. This theater is pretty close to the road and can be easily noticed from a vehicle in normal traffic. There’s also wheelchair accessible entrance and toilet for the differently able #FamilyFriendly #Cinema #NYC
Came here today for advance screening for dolittle by amex platinum and black card members. It was first come first seated( no reserved seating). The seats were not recliner, but enough comfortable. The theatre was clean. Movie was good, sound quality was good.
Very clean place in general, reclining seats all of the good stuff. Try to watch your movies in the Dolby theater, totally worth the price.
Why is level 10 actually the basement? Your signage is mental and the cinema chairs are pretty uncomfortable. Luckily Nick Cage was fantastic.
Clean, Nice and Staff were friendly!
AMC A-List is worth every penny for the IMAX here alone. One of the few true IMAX theaters in the country (get back three rows for the best view during movies)!
One of best IMAX experience around here, will definitely go back in future to see more movies
Great place to see a movie. Clean and comfortable. Looking forward to going back.
I love that this movie theater is far enough from traffic in NYC but close enough to 59th street which is a major subway station. The outside and inside structure of this theater is probably one of my favorites in the city, unfortunately this is not true with the actual movie theaters that are digital. The seats are uncomfortable, if you don’t have a balcony option then the design is a standard “hill” no step ups for rows. They need to update to leather seats with more room and when they do this will be my theater destination always. This theater is known for its movie premieres and many times you can see the starts of the film. Stellaroptics on Instagram.
It is another stylish amc. they named every theatre, such as canal, places..., they display some clothing which it is used in movie. also, they have some interesting mural painting.and they have a lot of ticket vending machine around the lobby, so dont worry about the line wait time.their seats are more comfortable than regular seats, because their seats allow you to recline a little bit. yeah, only a little bit. if you are used to watch movie with reclined seat, it may be a few challenge for you. fortunately, the space between every row is big enough, you can keep your legs straight.the sscreen and the sound effect are not impressive. the auditorium on second floor are better than the auditorium on basement.but they offer a lot of movie show time, if you are A-List member in nyc , you must be here sometime.enjoy the show.
Nice theater. Seats are comfortable. But they should have recliner seats.
I’ve been coming to this location for years. I love the imax screen here. It’s the only true imax in nyc. If you love a huge three story imax screen than this is the one to go!
This is the best IMAX screen on the east coast. This was my third time seeing a movie here and its worth the 2 hour drive for me.Everything about it is impressive. The height, the sound and the new laser projection system for a sharper image with more contrast. One of the few theaters left that has a 70mm film projector as well. No recliners but the seats have enough legs room so that youre not kneeing the back of the chair in front of you.Looking forward to my next visit! 🎞️🎥🍿
My favorite movie theater in NYC! While I know it is often given huge praise for the only real IMAX theater in NYC, I find the IMAX theater to not be be deep enough and much prefer the Dolby digital (which has a balcony!)Old school vibe on some of the theater is quite fun. They have recently eliminated the throwback names in lieu of numbered theaters.Downstairs theaters are typically for independent movies, which I’m thankful this theater often has a few of.
What a cool movie experience! Feels like an old Hollywood theater. Also love that real movie lovers also come here. Never had a negative movie experience! Make sure to have your vax and ID
Love, love , love this movie theater. The restrooms are beautiful and clean. They are huge and rearly ever a line even after the movie ends. I love the theme of this theater and the art work on the walls. My suggestion is not to drive. The parking lots are over priced. Everytime I have choose to drive its been very difficult to find parking on the street. However, public transportation is near by on the 1 train or A,C train to 59th. The area has so many retailers, fast food and restaurants to enjoy before or after your showtime. Central park is also a short walk off. This area in general is great for dates or just a day out.
The only true IMAX screen in the city and it is amazing.Row E/F/G is the sweet spot if you like to consume your field of vision but dont want a sore neck. (E is cutting it close though)Dont worry about not getting a center seat. While its definitely better, its definitely not necessary. I was in seat 37 for DUNE and had a great time.
This theater must have the biggest IMAX screen in all of New York. First time I saw a movie here on IMAX was the Matrix Reloaded. Even though I wasn’t a big fan of the movie itself, the screen was so impressive that I rewatched that same film here multiple times.I’ve come back for many other movies since then: Logan, Deadpool, and Star Wars The Force Awakens were among my favorite movie experiences here.The theater is clean and there are bathrooms both above and below the IMAX theater.
My favorite theater in the city. Themed on the inside to look like youre walking through the Sunset Strip, and each screen is named after a famous theater. The screens themselves are all good quality, and Ive never had an issue with washout since they dont screen 3D films. The iMAX and Dolby options are great. Additionally, the theater is clean and the staff are friendly.
Definitely try experiencing the IMAX theatre at least once. We saw Spiderman: No Way Home and it was amazing! Very clean and although the seats weren’t reclining, they were comfortable.
I love this theater. Its huge, quiet and clean. If you want to immerse yourself in a film and not have to worry about rowdy customers, this is a great AMC option. I also appreciate their staff. They are always friendly and helpful.
Went in 3/2/22. I know I went to go watch jackass but theres no reason why the theater smelled like one. I dont know what the rest smelled like but I believe theater 12 on the lower level was the one I was in. it smelled like a nasty bathroom. its very gross especially for a well known theater
I love this theater. Its my go-to theater for any IMAX movie because it has One of the original humongous IMAX screens in Manhattan. The other one being, I believe, the museum of natural History at the Rose Kennedy center. And the only other ones I know are in New Rochelle, and Palisades Mall. My point is, if you want to experience a visual mind blast, this is the kind of IMAX screen you want to attend. Especially 3D IMAX! Ill never forget seeing the dark Knight at this theater when it first came out. It was shot using IMAX cameras ,and the scenes of the city were incredible. But I digress. This theater is very fancy and it has an elevator. for the handicap,. A true Cinema showcase with all the posters and movie tapestries hanging everywhere.It is located in the heart of Lincoln center and is easy to get to. They also have a Dolby theater which is a great place to watch a movie if you cant get the right kind of seating at the IMAX. Be warned however that this screen (IMAX)is so huge, that you dont want to get stuck in any of the bottom rows. Youll need a chiropractor if you have to watch a movie that long with your neck stretched back the entire time.
My favorite theatre in NYC. Gives a neighborhood theatre vibe, but it’s pretty decent size. Away from other busy areas in NYC, coming here to watch a movie feels really relaxing!
The IMAX experience is unbeatable but Dolby has better sound experience. The IMAX bathroom is very clean and everything looks well maintained.
Great experience. Imax was worth it. No recliners but the seats are leather, they are the rocking style and were comfortable.
Seriously the hygiene of this theatre is one the worst that I’ve been 🤢😤 look at the seat. Also there’s this funky gross smell… yuck. Clean up the place pls esp when pandemic is not even over yet.
IMAX theater is great. Big comfy seats, nice and clean too. Concession prices are outrageous, but thats every theater these days
Havent been in this theater since sons were younger( 20yrs )but ! It was worth the wait. Great staff,clean environment. Was there for red carpet event( last Rambo ) plane on returning again. 2dollar water would be better than a 6dollar big bottle of water ? Great place !
Excellent place to see a movie. They have one of two true IMAX theaters in all of Manhattan. This trip though, we decided to book recliner seats to see No Time to Die (latest James Bond movie). The recliner seats are a total game changer. Im note sure I can go back to regular seats again. These are so comfy and spacious (everyone gets room on the arm rests). I highly recommend them.
Chicken shortage so tough luck if you want chicken fingers. Staff was a bit disoriented about a possible slip and fall due to water on the floor but no one seemed to want to do anything about it. Theatre was clean.
I dont actually enjoy watching movies in movie theaters. If I absolutely had to go to a movie theater, Id come here. Its clean, and seats are booked in advanced so theres no annoying having to switch seats and stuff.
Just went to go see Matt Reevess The Batman in Dolby, and cant wait to watch it in IMAX either (biggest screen ever). I havent had a terrible experience here as of yet, which makes me very happy.
Super clean! Very friendly staff!! But the people who go there to watch the movies are nasty as hell.. sneezing and cough directly next to you that is nasty. And the popcorn is good but not anything else
Wonderful theater with many screens and the vending machines are the ones with the choose your own adventure beverages with a million choices.Also you can refill as much as you want as far as I know (incuding slurpee type beverages)Joining the Loews rewards program can also be a great option for frequent viewers.
This is the best movie house in town! The actual room was intimate with reclining seats. The food and the drinks are awesome at a very affordable price. The place is spacious, clean, modern, and easy to access. The staff is friendly, courteous, and hard-working. The menu is smaller than anticipated but still sufficient. I look forward to visiting again.
Awesome screen. If you go here make sure it is for the imax experience. Clean theater, good staff.
This theater is the place to come and enjoy the experience to come back to see a good movie with amplified sensations in a clean,relaxing atmosphere and the food selections to die for.so go ahead you wont regret it.
The Imax screen here is one of the best! Absolutely massive. However, it was a little frustrating that the snack bar by the Imax closes immediately after the movie started meaning a 2 minute errand to fetch a snack turns into a 20 minute treasure hunt missing much of the movie.Update 3/28/22- still only 4*. When getting concessions, there seem to be an adequate number of cashiers to take your money, then only one person to make all the food. I nipped out of the movie midway to grab a hotdog. The premiere line was long and it took over ten minutes to get something ready cooked.
Never enough staff. At least vaccine checks r done with (till next falls new variant). Both Spider-Man 3 and Batman#15 have sold more advance tix than any movies in history. Whos gonna wait on them?? Nobody... Staff UP.
Largest IMAX Screen, definitely worthwhile over every other AMC in NYC.
Favorite movie theater in Manhattan. The screens are actually big and the IMAX is actually Max!But this is no best kept secret so you have to book in advance and come prepared to rub elbows with your seat neighbors.Still: it is the best we have.
Very nice place comfy clean seats , awesome IMAX good selection of snacks and you have Grays Papaya couple blocks away thats a NY Institution ! parking is a extremely tight but the subway is nearby! the picture is with CEO of AMC the Silverback himself .
This is literally the weirdest AMC ive ever been to. I think theres only two Theatres here? But yet, 4 floors?!!! Very confusing so to figure out where youre going. And for some reason they check IDs now, just for entry, instead of vaccine cards? Very strange
Well the seat dont have heaters as some of the modern IMAX theaters in other AMC locations it is the most cleaniest and friendlist staffed AMC location in NYC
Biggest, baddest IMAX around, incredible sound, and the projector calibration is perfect. This is a must visit location for the big blockbusters!
Great movie theater and a great IMAX experience.The picture and sound was top notch.The temperature in the theater was not to cold nor to hot.
Its sad I like this place as we speak Im sitting in the theater and I wanted popcorn and drink I was paying with a hundred dollar bill and they gave me the run around on how they couldnt give me change and its funny because the prices are pretty high and so many people here so you mean to tell me you have no change SMH so now I cant enjoy my experience SMH
Incredible theater, one of few with true IMAX. Whenever a big film comes out that can benefit from the huge screen, this is where I go to see it.
Gotta love those IMAX recliners
Its a nice theater, but skip the concessions. Stalest popcorn Ive ever had at the movies.
This theater gets four stars for creativity and ambiance. Opposed to the expected theater number 1, 2, etc, they have names like Majestic, Capital, etc, which gives it a pop. The concession stand sits in the grand lobby and looks quite impressive. If you have been to other AMC theaters, you are a bit taken aback when you enter your particular screening room. They do not have the signature large red leather recliner chairs. They do have the reserved seating which I have grown to love and appreciate. The sound and quality of the movie was great. Unfortunately the seat I was in had a broken armrest, which kept sliding throughout the movie. Still a great theater with awesome ambiance.
Great theater real IMAX screen. Post covid still a great theater kept very clean. If you want reclining seats you just have to make sure you pick the right theater Great IMAX great selection of movies the staff do the best they can even though theyre short staffed but theyre all really nice
Excellent movie theater and experience. Went to see Mid 90s and had an unforgettable time. Entire complex is clean with great atmospheres in the theatres themselves. Screens adequate size, seating comfortable. The staff is very accommodating and helpful while the crowds are quiet, but engaged.Cant wait until the release of Avengers 4 to go back. 34th St. AMC is my favorite theater, but because of the closer proximity and its great qualities, Lincoln Square is a close second. Check it out.
Love the way everything is laid out the theaters are amazing and seats were great.
What a wonderful place to see a movie!! The young man at the counter, Chris, was so helpful today. He was enthusiastic and so thorough with each customer. He made sure that my friend and I had hearing devices that worked. I love his professionalism and joy for his job. So hard to find these days. The theaters are clean and comfortable. Everyone should go here and ask for Chris!
They happened to be premiering Men In Black International the day I went. If I had known, I wouldve went to a different theater - there were too many people getting ready for the event so the registers were not properly manned. Im an A-List member and the A-list line was just as long as the regular line and they had like 2 cashiers. I was there for a 5 pm movie. When I got to the front, she said if I didnt have cash I would have to wait until the register that could take cards freed up, so I just paid with cash. I tried to see if the ICEE flavor I wanted was actually frozen or watery and it squirted on my pants. Went to get napkins and ALL the dispensers were empty. I purchase my tickets in advance on the app and it let me know my theater (theater 5) didnt have recliners, which I thought, would be fine. I posted a picture of my view, it was not fine! Also, the rows were very narrow. Im 57 and my knees were almost touching the seat in front of me. The seat wasnt even comfortable. The people in my row who stayed for the credits had to get up so I could get past them and go into the aisle, I couldnt squeeze past them, which was annoying.
Great experience the best IMAX! Plus its quite cozy since because of covid its almost empty.
This was the second time Ive been to this movie theater n it has been very pleasant each time. I enjoyed the movie, there were no interruptions, only issue was that the subtitles were cut off at the bottom. (Isle of the dog) Otherwise everything ran smoothly n the theater itself is clean. Only thing was that Im use to recliner seats but otherwise its not bad n definitely recommend coming here to watch any movie.
Absolutely Love MAC Lincoln Square. There are plenty of theaters to choose from and a variety of movies. I love how they house both a Dolby theatre as well as an incredible IMAX!! The place is clean and the popcorn is Delish! There are modern Coca Cola free style soda machines and icee ones, too! Both are serve yourself!
No stadium seating except for Dolby and imax. Names of movies on theatres are wiped off. No reclining seats except for Imax & Dolby. Staff is nice. But feels too old school if you are into that. The place is kept clean though. Overall. Its a preference.
Always a pleasure going here, staff is always friendly ( hope they gotten a bonus for Christmas) went to see spider man in imax it was really cool with nostalgic feelings it was a great experience.P.s. and not because Nicole Kidman said so
Best movie theater in the city. I was living here when it was built..Dolby highest quality screen and sound.in theater 1 and the best Imax in the city. Highle recommend
They let you preselect your seat/s, but theyre not the newer plush ones, like those found in some other AMC theatres. A rude patron sitting behind me was kicking my seat throughout the entire viewing and she was not a child. I complained to the management afterwards and received a free pass to the next feature of my choice.
I definitely love this theater 🎥 good people great seats.
An amazing cinema! The atmosphere and decoration are all amazing and nothing like I have experienced elsewhere. I saw Taylor Swift’s All Too Well Short Film which was exclusive to this theatre and it was a brilliant experience. I am very happy with this cinema.
This used to be one of the better theatres in the city. Would only come here if you don’t mind having to sit-down-stand-up for the first 20 minutes of the film as people trickle in. The vaccination check, the ticket taking, concessions…all inadequately staffed. After having experienced this a few times, I stopped going here.
Really good service! The service is always quick and the food is really pretty good. The seats are comfy and the table trays are large to put your food on there. Its so convenient to push a button and a server comes to you to place your order, and they also deliver your order. I love this Place. Im always going back here!
My fav movie theater, been to see all marvel movies at the Big IMAX screen!
Nice imax theater and nice concession stand. They also have the option to choose your own drink with lots of different options.
The theatre itself is great with location and offerings but lacks in general cleanliness and staffing.Food at AMC is great as usual,food/drink options are a lot
Tale of two cities. The Dolby Cinema and IMAX auditoriums are world-class and the others are below-average. Be careful when you book!
I had the pleasure of seeing West Side Story which was amazing with a wonderful cast and incredible music. The theater provides comfortable seating and a large screen with little to no obstruction.
Great seats in #1. Thoroughly enjoyed the movie and the seats.
I had the Best time never been to this movie theater.the food for me was not that good.I seen sider-man no way home IMAX i loved it i had so much fun movie was outstanding.also i treated myself and seen sing part 2 also great movie for all ages.staff was very respectful nice i had a great experience at this movie theater i will go back.👍 the food selection and quality need to be better pizza etc.
A good Dolby cinema experience and clean high class theater. Rather wish AMC other locations like Harlem was similar. Their Dolby cinema is one of the biggest in the city. The best experience would be on the balcony as everything is in view, your not constantly tryna look up at the screen and the sound is just right.
Excellent spot for iMax movies and space and experience is amazing !
I like this theater, even though it hasnt been remodeled in a while and doesnt have stadium seating, because the staff are friendly, its kept clean and perhaps most importantly, because the patrons know how to behave at a public theater, ie people dont talk at full volume during the movie or indiscriminately check their cellphones. The audiences at this AMC are probably the most respectful in Manhattan.
My favorite IMAX theater in the city. Nice seats, MASSIVE screen and plenty of space.Saw Black Panther and Infinity War here.
Guest arriving late walking back and fourth using their phones as flashlights, it was horrible.They should have a time for people to arrive.It was disgusting I was ready to get up and leave.
Best movies and IMAX!Comfortable and clean.Good snacks.
The seats are very very very uncomfortable in most of 15 theaters there. If I had a choice, I wouldnt even go to this place because of these horrible seats. Its just close to home :(
Went to see Dr Strange multiverse of madness. It was my best cinema experience to date
Theater was clean and Davey has great customer service and was very knowledgeable and helpful.
The best IMAX theater in town. I think the only true IMAX screen. The screen, the sound, the whole experience was to the max. The best option if you want to see the latest blockbuster at its fullest.
Great overall experience, food is pricey but the IMAX is A-tier
Usually I would say my experience is fine but a few days ago when we went to watch Venom, we decided to grab some food and drinks. First of all, your regular line/Insider and Stub Premiere/A Lister members are not distinguishable, so everyone ends up standing in the VIP line, whats the point then? Its been like that for months and its annoying for those who expect members service. Additionally, waiting for food took way too long, while we waiting and carefullt watched for our 3 hot dog order to be finished, which took a long time to begin with a manager snuck in spoke with the person preparing them and took one for another customer who JUST ordered, we had to wait another 5-10 minutes for 1 additional hot dog to be made, not the best customer service there.
Horrible seats, making noise whenever you move a chick. Avoid by all costs or choose recliners only.
Almost had a heartattack riding the high escalator but it was worth it! Prettiest movie theatre ever!
Always good environment and a nice place to spend watching movies and a lot to places around yo enjoy too.
Great theater with IMAX and Dolby. Typically always clean
Theater 7 has torture chairs seriously so uncomfortable probably never going to this location again ever seats like this are killing the industry way too expensive to be uncomfortable
You would think that since it was closed to public they would have taken the time to do some cleaning and upgrades. I dont know about the other auditoriums but number two had dirty and questionable seats. My seat bent so low I had to roll my coat up and sit on it in order not to slide off. Didnt move because a lot of the other seats were visibly dirty. 3 stars is for the movie not the theater.
I love it good therter,but it need new things like upstairs need to shorten the entertareane to concession stand.
Best movie theatre in New York City! Trust me I have been to many of them. It has the real IMAX screen that is absolutely gigantic. There are theaters closer to me but I always go here.
I use to go there when my son was younger. Now am a stub member so Tuesday nights is movie night for my movie buddy & me . I love that you can use your card at all movie theatre. Looking to one day be a stake holder.
Old seats, bad smell, uncomfortable, a third world facility and the worst: full of clueless tourists. You still pay the same price as the AMC at 84th Street. Do not waste your money here.
Very clean...great experience ....big n bold theaters
Pretty clean for a movie theater. No sticky floors or popcorn all over the floor. Also the Dolby experience at this theater is a amazing experience.
Saw Westside story and wow! Amazing. So, first time back in the movies and what better place after 15 years , yes this theater. Great location. Beautiful theater.
This is the best AMC ever!! I’m part of a movie club and we love this AMC. It’s centric, close to everything and the overall vibe of the area is just amazing. I’ll leave this review with a picture of our movie club. We are expecting to be back soon 😎🙏🏼😉
Amc theater was clean and in nice condition.But they had no concession in the lower level where the movie was being show and no signs explaining that there was no concession stand in the lower level.
Great seats, convenient location and quality decor
Great imax experience on one of the largest imax screens. Experience it if you can. This is bigger than the standard imax screens.Be prepared to wait in the line. There is a separate line for imax.
Favorite Theater, always bring my son here to see some new movie.
Great theater for the Dolby cinema. Lost my phone between the chairs though so be careful!
I love this place. I usually do IMAX but I also enjoy the Dolby Cinema. They have very comfortable seats. The food is pretty good as well, I enjoy the Flatbread pizza.
Very good! Compared to other amcd its ok because there are no recliners for chairs..Still amazing tho
Only been here for the *true* IMAX screen, but no complaints about that! Seats are comfortable and screen and sound is as impressive as youd expect.
Great theatre. Starting to feel and look a little run down.
Better than the AMCs in Midtown, but could definitely use updating.But the one at Broadway and 84th St is much nicer. $6.50 Tuesday is hard to beat and somewhat makes up for the dismal theaters. Regal theaters are better when you dont mind paying full fare.
Love this movie theater been going since I was a teen. The only issue I have is that I wish they upgraded their seats. I feel that they havent upgraded their seat since I was a teen and that was a long time.
Always a good experience here. I just wish they had reclining seats.
Is a nice quiet n decent place for movies clean n good service 👌
I absolutely love this place! if you need/want a mind blowing IMAX/IMAX 3D experience...this is the most absolute AMC location to visit. for me, its the largest IMAX sceen i have ever viewed a film on. right now, they have an auditorium under construction for Dolby Cinema (cant wait for it to be completed to experience it).the best feature of this & all of AMCs is the reserved seating. & i love the way they name the auditoriums after popular cinemas from yesteryear... they are a bit hard to read due to fading, but if youre like me & are in between films, they are fun facts to read.on a side note, the only annoying aspect of AMCs film membership, their A-List program, is the fact that everytime you vist their cinemas you have to show ID. i mean, i had the Premiere Stubs that came with a yearly fee & then i upgraded to A-List for a monthly fee & i have to walk with my passport for proof. its the same membership number attached to my account, doesnt make sense. but, its great cinema plan. if you dont have it yet, think bout getting it & visit this locale.once again, i absolutely love this place.
Need an attendant at each floor to tell people at what time they open the theater door and where the concession stand are,very confusing for new costumers!
Huge older well-kept theater with lovely staff, but...cloth seats in the non-IMAX, non-Dolby theaters. Ewww.Box office to purchase tix on ground level. For concessions and entrance to theaters take escalator or elevator upstairs.
Absolutely ridiculous IMAX cinema. Watched Top Gun in there and it blew my face off
Run down theater despite numerous emails to AMC headquarters. The employees are always nice.
Easy access and Easy local parking on the street if you go to a 7PM movie. Popcorn was fresh
This is a theater that I love and Im comfortable going too plus the experience is dominating and everything you want is at a hands reach.
Was here for the Taylor Swift All Too Well The Short Film premier ❤️ The theater was large and clean. Not sure if all the staff I encountered was from the theater or Taylors team but they were all lovely and very nice.
We saw Nightmare Alley. Excellent film. Seats were comfortable. Nice location.
This movie theater is clean. Staff and employees are always friendly. This is great movie theater for family, dates and friends however there’s only one major problem with this theater. The concession stands soft beverages doesn’t taste like the real brand soda, like for example sprite doesn’t taste at all like sprite and Coca Cola doesn’t taste like Coca Cola, the popcorns are tasteless, the hotdog taste quality is extremely poor, nacho chips are stale. My suggestion BRING YOUR OWN SNACKS AND DRINKS. The Wise butter popcorn taste way better than this theater popcorn. I gave this theater a 3 star rating for having very poor beverage and snack taste quality
This is by far the best IMAX screen in the country. A must for box office blockbusters (Marvel’s) just be sure to book your tickets way in advance. Audio in this auditorium is also optimized. Screen is so big that it doesn’t fit in a picture!
No apple pay??? In 2022 NYC??? Seriously??? So you want me to pay for my popcorn and drink, but you don’t provide me with a way to do it??? No comment…
If you’re keen on watching a movie in IMAX format, you should not look anywhere else, (within the 50 states I mean) because this has got to be the biggest IMAX theater you could possibly be in. Make sure the movie is shot wholly in IMAX format so the entire time the full screen is utilized (Transformers I’m waving at you!) Also don’t be surprised if you’d be sitting next to costumed Batman during Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice film. That’s just how it goes in here. There is also a concession just outside the theater and bathrooms are kept tidy but needs an update. But if I were you, I’ll just grab a bite from a dozen restaurants around the area before watching a movie. The line at concessions will be long. The acoustics is decent but not muted. Parking like anywhere else in manhattan is street parking where available or paid parking basement.
The arm rests go up so you can watch movies like you’re on a couch. Super comfy!
Seats need updating , old fashioned low ones. Not very comfortable.
Great facilities and very friendly staff. I recommend going for a movie.
I liked sitting in the original seats...falling asleep never occurred to me...great theater
The theater shut off the movie one minute into the credits. No explanation. Many upset viewers in the theater. Completely unacceptable. No staff anywhere to be found after the movie was over to ask what happened. This was my go-to theater in the city since it opened, but after this I will go elsewhere.
This is, like my favorite theater. Great IMAX, reserved seating, cool layout, friendly staff and also, a great location close to transport, central park, Columbus circle. Love this theater. Post Covid, still my favorite. Staff is nice here.
Love it there, always clean, people are so nice when you are buying candy, popcorn, etc so courteous and polite!! Absolutely would recommend it!!
Much nicer staff and building than the upper east location next to my house.
They say its the biggest IMAX display. Magnificent PQ and booming AQ. Truly a great experience. Just wish they had recliners here instead of regular chair seating.
Its a bit behind the times but still ok. Seems like the seating hasnt changed since the 90s in the regular theaters.
Nice staff, comfortable seats, good food & beverage selections.
It was great. Only thing was the popcorn tasted dusty.
So happy the Movies has Returned. ...that is the one place you can attend Alone ...Why they Suggest NO Talking ....I can go to the Movies when I feel like it ..people tend to Cancel when you make plans. ..I learned how to just get up and go and Enjoy Life ....Movies ,Concerts , Supper Clubs.....So Glad the Movies has Returned....I saw the Wife of the Body Guard......Very action packed and Funny too....I hope and Pray the Movies never go out of style...Sitting in Front of the TV ...all the time is Boring via ME
So roomy, huge bathrooms very clean, orderly and quick as possible snack line with huge food options, sound quality and seating were top of the line but do get reservations, super packed with opening night on most movies. Pricey.
Love this location. It’s all themed! And the sound of the Dolby Digital is great. Always choose the signature recliners. It’s a game changer when it comes to comfort while u watch the movie..
The place for movie dates was this movie theater in this town. They had an audible sound and very nice and comfortable seats. The screen was wide and very clear. Highly recommended!
This Theater has real IMAX screen. The theater was clean. Friendly and helpful Staff.
Edit - AMC A List is a total scam, I signed up for it in december, saw one movie, and then after several cancellation attempts they still charged me for a second month (they make it nearly impossible to cancel and you have to do it on a desktop, I was moving during covid so didnt have access to my desktop), then when I FINALLY get through to someone to cancel, they tell me theres a $25 cancellation fee. So yea, $75 for one movie in one of their gross theaters. What a RIPOFF and dishonest policy. The Imax also has uncomfortable seats and a well-known mouse issue. You can hear their squeaks as the movie is playing.
Nice theater, though the layout is a bit confusing for those visiting for the first time
Best IMAX theater in town!
Clean and quite! I just did not understand why the homeless were hanging out in the staircase!
This location always has indie or less popular film showings that other AMC locations in NY dont. If you have A-List and dont want to need to go to Angelika and spend money, this is your place.
Solid theater. Guy checking tickets always looks like hes having a bad day though.
Bought tickets, received confirmation. It was only luck that I saw an email a few days later that they cancelled the showtime. Id already purchased train tickets and reserved a hotel room. Thank god I did a triple check or Id have shown up and been turned away at the door for a non-existent showtime. They offered nothing but Sorry. Meanwhile Im out the cancellation fees for the train.
The IMAX is my favorite theatre. The sound and picture are outstanding. Unfortunately, they are unable to show anything in 3D because issuing glasses is a bit risky during the pandemic.
Two years ago pre-pandemic I gave this theater 5 Stars. That has since been downgraded to 2 stars, here’s why: AMC had months in fact years to upgrade this theater to modern new seats and they did not. This may seem like a minor issue to some which I understand, however it is so ridiculous to spend over 50$ to sit in a theater and be uncomfortable. UPGRADE!
I love the theater quite a bit but the seats need to be upgraded from the cloth material that is currently there. The chairs are not comfortable.

2022-05-28Went with some friends first and loved the overall style and design of this particular AMC, so I came back with my boyfriend this time. Loved that all the rooms had different themes of movies and places with amazing artwork. The reclining seats are amazing and the IMAX and Dolby experience is phenomenal.

2022-05-09I saw Doctor Strange here in their IMAX theater on the top floor. When entering you see a massive screen, several stories tall. Other than that its not the best viewing experience. You have a few fast food options at the concessions stand and the seats are not the most comfortable, lacking a recliner. But if you want an epic option for big movies this is a good choice.

2021-12-05One of the best theaters in Manhattan for a cinophile. Clean theater with amazing movie artwork and multiple screens (>12), great prices ($12.50 for shows before 5:00 p.m.), great location close to the subway, Central Park and some nice restaurants / desert shops. They also check everyones vaccination status before allowing entry which makes you feel safer.There are three floors in the theater and they all have food counters.

2022-06-05Comfy wide seats but they dont recline like what is in all the videos they play before the show. Older style theater but is very clean and well kept.

2022-05-17I went here to watch Doctor Strange 2 in IMAX. Great location, clean theatre and beautiful interior.The IMAX auditorium is on the 4th floor and bathrooms and concessions are available on the same floor. The screen is HUGE and absolutely breathtaking, the sound is also roaring and perfectly tuned. The seats are big, comfy, and they recline back and forth. The staff was very nice and respectful. I will definitely be back :)4/5 because they charged $7 for fries which had the portion size equivalent to a Mcdonalds small (and they were in a much larger takeout box, made me think they messed up the order).

2022-03-15IMAX is always worth a trip, but the space in front of the seats is tight and hard to get around people. Come early for concessions, too, as the line can ne long. But, its a real theater, grand inside with large incredible movie displays you dont usually find in other theaters.

2022-04-11The biggest IMAX screen in the US, the 6th largest in the world. Find yourself in a nice seat towards the rear center if you can. I was disappointed that I could only see Ambulance, during our stay in New York. Some would argue a 6 story screen would make that movie better, but I felt like the constant motion and moving close up shots made the experience very disorienting, but maybe it was the alcohol!

2022-05-17Clean theater. Each room is set up a little differently with sounds and audio. The best is the IMAX and Dolby sound rooms.

2022-03-12By far my favorite AMC in New York City. Very beautiful on the inside with a lot of details and unique art. Bottom floor is for smaller theaters, first floor is for tickets, second is for Dolby, regular theaters, and concessions, and the top floor is IMAX with concessions. The Dolby and IMAX theaters have very large screens and a ton of seats (dont sit too close!) The seats in the regular theaters are pretty tight with little legroom, and you better hope a tall person doesnt sit in front of you 😅 Celebrities often visit this theater on random occassions, I saw Ryan Reynolds and Liam Neison here! Overall would highly recommend this theater!
