Cinemark

Was excited to go to the movies tonight… first time in 7 months, had my son in his car seat already sleep, we purposely went late so not too many people were there. When we get there Sarah, oddly the manager, who clearly shows lack of leadership and professionalism, announces that we are not allowed to see the movie «Neighbors,» a rated R movie because we have our son who is under 6. Come to find out it is to accommodate people without children who don’t want to have any distractions during the movie. Nice to know Cinemark has Sarah to help enforce this accommodation. Where does that leave people like us who don’t have a sitter and specifically wait to see the latest movie, knowing that there are less people, especially in shytty S.V. Thanks to Sarah she let me know that I could come earlier in the day. Thanks Sarah I’ll quit my job so I can do that.

I went to see the new Star Trek movie at a 2:00 showing on a Thursday. I was told by the box office clerk that the A/​C was broken and it was currently 80 degrees in the theater. After picking up my jaw from the ground, the clerk asked me if I was «okay with that». Uhhh, no, heat exhaustion is not in my movie going experience. I told her, «Forget it» and walked away. Later, I thought, why doesn’t this theater move Star Trek to another theater and get rid of «The Croods». Who the hell is going to watch «The Croods» on an afternoon matinée on a Thursday? Beats me.

A perfectly acceptable small first-​run theater. I wouldn’t say my experiences there have been outstanding, but their prices are cheaper than the larger ones in Tucson and they keep it reasonably clean (by movie theater standards; the later showings of popular films will absolutely have a certain funk to them). I feel a little guilty telling people to skip the concessions, as I know theaters make nothing at all on the ticket price, but when two items will easily run you more than the price for you and your friend both to get in? Just no.

2^nd visit to this theater. I would say this is the best one in town. Seats are really comfortable too.

The theater is decent, is in good repair, and has stadium seating. The sound was great… overwhelming at times. I saw a film in 3D and they offer student and military discounts. My popcorn was overdone and I think they dumped all the bottom kernels in my bag-​but who wants to go back to concessions in the middle of the film? Eh, thankful we have a theater here, even if it’s slim pickings.

I think most Cinemarks deserve a 3 or a 4 star rating. This is the best theater in town. Not a difficult thing to be when you’re competing against the terrible theater that rhymes with Uptown. Sure, this place has its occassional problem, but all theaters do. And management seems to be rather attentive at rectifying any problems that you may have. Whether its an issue with the projector or sound. They’re quick to give refunds if they can’t satisfy your complaint. That alone makes this place deserve 4 stars in my book. It’s clean. And it has the best screens and sound in town. The only reason I don’t give it 5 stars is due to better theaters being out there in Tucson, a mere one hour drive away. All in all, this is the best Sierra Vista has to offer. So, help them out and boycott the other one in town. Also, they have a much better arcade with air hockey and pinball games. If that’s important to you. Sometimes, it is for me.

First off and thankfully I’m not alone on this one by reading the other reviews on this theatre. The projectors SUCK!!! I’ve been here a few times And maybe I just got a bad movie or something. Not the case. It looked like a camera lens out of focus. Who wants to pay $ 9 for a movie with crap equipment playing it? Sadly there is nothing else in this town besides the uptown 3 which I’m sure isn’t much better.
Its sad that they can’t upgrade there equipment in this theatre when you know there banking on raping your wallet with prices like a $ 6 soda and a $ 5 popcorn.
I miss California. Where you can get a nice cold beer in your movie theatre; yes I said beer :)

Go ahead and call me a spoiled Californian, but this is one of the worst theaters I have ever been in. First of all, I bought my ticket for the midnight Harry Potter several days in advance to ensure I had a seat to sit in, but upon arrival to the theater, my friends and I discovered that they had over sold tickets for our showing and had to move to another theater to see the movie. There was no apology, no explaination, no form of compensation. They seem really disorganized and ill-​equipped to handle a large crowd of people. The theater we were moved to had a later start time. The screen had a large wrinkle in the middle– not that it mattered, because by the time we were moved to the second theater and found seats we were so close to the screen we were practically extras in the movie itself. The whole theater and lobby smelled really strange. I’m not talking about too many people stuffed in a tight space smell, I’m talking about a bad combination of cleaning products, air fresheners and concession food. Thankfully the bathroom was acceptably clean. I venture to guess that I will at some point return to this theater, becuase unfortunately there are few other options for theaters in this town.

There are only two theaters in Sierra Vista. This one is located inside the mall. The lobby is large. The restrooms were clean. The popcorn was good and fresh. The theaters have nice stadium seating. I’ve been here a few times over the years and never had an issue. Given the other option in Sierra Vista, I prefer this theater. The one thing I really like is that they have an additional snack bar located down the hall where all the theaters are so that you don’t have to go all the way back out to the lobby to get something. I do love the movie pictures of old movie stars on the walls, Laurel and Hardy and Clark Gable to name a few. It evokes a nice nostalgic feel. The last time I was here the movie lost it’s sound in the middle and they had to stop it and start it again. I hope they don’t have that issue often. I’m sure I will be back the next time I visit my family in Sierra Vista.

Poor projection equipment. The picture is dark and looks out of focus too often. Cheap theaters purposely use low luminosity projection bulbs to save them money. Often experienced sound at unbearable high levels. Go elsewhere!

This is the only decent place to watch a movie in town. I like that it’s cheaper than Tucson/​Phoenix. It is somewhat confusing when you try to purchase your tickets, though. Sometimes they are set up in the box outside of the theater, and sometimes you have to go all the way inside to the concession stand to get your ticket. It’s not a huge deal, but for a first-​timer it can be a bit confusing.
