AMC Streets of St Charles 8

There is a piece of glass blocking your viewing angle. No matter what you saw the black line. Is this an AMC or St. Charles county thing?

Best AMC theater around, huge comfy recliner seats, self-​serve Freestyle soda machines, and an awesome surrounding location. This will be my to go theater for now on.

Select your seats ahead of time.
If you choose row E which is near the horizontal dead center of the screen with no seats directly in front of you, know that the entire theatre could be empty except for row E with 10 people lounging side-​by-​side.
The reclining seats with footrests are comfortable but bring wetnaps since people do eat popcorn and drink soda in these chairs.
Free parking in the garage next door or across from the theater.

Nice new facility. Concession line went fast and the popcorn was fresh. The seats were very comfortable.

I can’t attest for all 8 screens, but the theater I was in for opening night of «Bridge of Spies,» had glass walls separating the rows. Even without reclining, the glass wall still cut off a fourth of the screen. If I had reclined my chair, I would have been looking at most of the movie screen through a glass barrier. This is inexcusable for a movie theater, especially a brand new one. We were sitting in the back row, and on the way out, I sat in each stadium seating row to see if the glass would still be a problem — it was. It must be for some sort of safety reason, but it’s still a very poor design.

This theater is in a great spot. The Streets of St. Charles is a very lively place and a theater adds to it nicely. Overall, it is a basic theater complex. There is a concession area, bar, automatic self-​serve drink stations, and the respective theaters. Inside the theaters, there are reserved seats with the moving armrest for a couch-​like feel. Make sure you do this when you go with someone close because, all of a sudden, you are considered a «weirdo» when you raise the armrest with a stranger in the other seat.
For all of the good, there is a significant downfall which has been called out in prior reviews: the glass barrier. Depending on where you sit and how you sit, you will have 0%-50% of the movie cut off. If you are watching the movie in 3D, then the portion of the film that falls below the glass section becomes warped and blurry. It is pretty trippy, actually. Nevertheless, the tickets are too expensive to have to lose screen space to an irrelevant and unnecessary guard. I have tried to figure out its purpose each time I have been there. The wall upon which the glass is attached seems to be meant to make one feel a little isolated from the rest of the theater, but the glass is see-​through, so it cannot be for the same purpose. Perhaps it is meant to prevent the throwing of concession snacks during upsetting parts of movies. One then must wonder what is going to stop someone from throwing it a little higher and getting a bit more distance than they would have otherwise. Then again, it could in fact be a sneeze guard, but that is just silly.
I think the point is clear. The glass serves no real purpose.

Why don’t we have a theater like this in Memphis? This place is great. It is reserve seating so you get to pick wherever you want to seat, which is great if you buy it ahead of time and don’t have to rush to get a good seat. The seats are huge and comfortable recliners. It is a little cold but I saw a lot of people with blankets, although I thought that was strange. A big plus is their bar, it is a tad pricey, but the drinks are strong and don’t taste cheap. My faves being the Hurricane and Long Island Ice Tea. Overall this is a theater worth checking out.

Worst designed theater ever! The large leather recliner seats are awesome, and picking your seats ahead of time is nice, until you get there and find there is a glass divider right in the middle of your view! It separates the rows (why? what use is it??) so it’s totally distracting and makes it impossible to enjoy the movie! It actually distorts the picture. Because of that I will never be back there which is a shame since otherwise it was nice.

Very nice theater! I love the reclining seats & it’s obviously brand new and in good shape. My one complaint is how COLD it is in there! Seriously, I was freezing! I didn’t complain but after reading other reviews it looks like the temperature is controlled off-​site so complaining probably wouldn’t have helped. Nice theater but bring a blanket and maybe sneak in a space heater, too!

Buying two tickets online before the show for $ 16 each (IIRC) had me feeling like a total sucker. For $ 32 I could go to the dollar show all week and have enough money left over for a case of beer. Fortunately, i don’t like beer (well, i do but not that much) or my feet sticking to the ground (RIP St. Andrews, you will be missed). Back on track. The movie we chose to see was Mad Max 3D. As soon as the 45 minutes of previews ended and the lights dimmed I knew we were in for a good show. The sound was deep enough and loud enough to make me feel it in places you cant mention on Unilocal.the clarity and picture had me terrified that guy in red with the bad-​ass flame-​shooting guitar was going to bump into my forehead at anytime. AHHHHHH!!! Eventually the assault on my senses ended. I quietly put my electronic chair back in the upright and seated position, wiped the drool off my chin and left the theatre not giving two sh**s about the $ 32 tickets.

100% Oversized Leather Reclining Seats and Self Refill Soda… what more do you need!

I have no idea how people don’t love this place. You walk in to find a huge cool lobby, and you can get your own drinks and better yet mix your own Icee’s. That is amazing. We saw Furious 7 here, and the seats were amazing. I love reserve your own seat theaters so I don’t have to waste a ton of time getting there early. These seats are huge power reclining leather seats. If you aren’t careful you will fall asleep. My only complaint is that it was quite warm in the theater which is pretty strange. Normally it is cold and pleasant. My lower back had a sweat mark on it from the leather seats which was pretty gross. All in all, this is a great theater in a great location, and it will be where I see the majority of my movies from here on out.

I was excited to check this place out since its new. When you walk in… It’s huge! Wow
The offer those new coke machines that offer 100 different drinks; plus they let you make your own slushies. I like mixing mine :)
We went to see the new avengers, when we got to the seats. There was popcorn all over or seats and the people next to us. Do they clean? I understand it’s opening night but the place was a mess.
Seats aren’t heated! What the heck, is 2015. However not a huge deal… The deal breaker for me was the «wall». What is the glass wall divided the levels?! If you are reclined, the glass is in the way. Plus. Make sure and go to the bathroom before or after the movie. There is physically no room to get to the stairs if anyone in your row has the seats reclined.
We went to a late show. Like 10pm. When we left. After midnight everything was closed obviously., but I could not get over how dirty the bathrooms were, how they didn’t sweep or vacuum the hallways and common error. The mats in front of the doors were discussion.
Overall; I was not impressed. I’ll stick to the movies off 94.

First time here and it wasn’t bad. Me and the misses started going to the movies a lot more when the dine in theatre on Olive opened as a dine in. This one was nice too. You can really turn a movie into a night because of the near by bars and restaurants. They have root beer, orange and coke floats here! I got a classic root beer float and it was fantastic! Had a really Good time tonight!

We went to check out this new theater recently and as expected it’s very nice and clean inside. It’s a bit small with only 8 screens but all seats are assigned recliners. I was surprised that a show at 12:30 was $ 11.25 though. Seems to be a little much for a matinée show without dine in seating.

Apart from a newly renovated location, this new AMC movie theater is the newest addition to the AMC family in the St. Louis metropolitan area. Right across the bridge into St. Charles, you’ll find this amazingly spacious and high-​tech new movie theater along with a complex the developers call The Streets of St. Charles. There are plenty of nice restaurants and bars in walking distance and even living quarters, as this is a mixed property development.
This is one of the theater locations were you pick your seating at purchase; so, if you wait until a few minutes before the show you may end up not being able to sit with the people you came with, so make sure you get there earlier or buy your tickets online. Side note, if you will be trying to redeem movie passes, you CANNOT do that on AMCs website so you will have to go to the theater secure your seats. When you first arrive, you turn to your immediate right and that’s the ticketing line. If you pre-​purchased your tickets they have a kiosk that will be of great use and really helps expedite things.
Okay back to the movie theater; the seating is really awesome and no matter what seat you choose every seat in the house is a good seat (even the ones in the front). The seats are a synthetic leather-​like material that are bright red and very comfortable. They totally recline and sitting here is like watching a brand-​new movie with all the comforts of your home. Unlike other locations that have dining delivery in the theaters, this one does not and I actually preferred this more. It’s lightly distracting to have service continue while you’re watching movies and people dropping plate and trying to whisper to place an order and that’s not an issue here.
There is a full bar complete with mixed drinks, a nice beer selection as well as wines and other spirits. They have the new up-​to-​date Coca-​Cola machines that let you custom mix your beverage and even come up with mixes that you didn’t know you’d fancy before. On the food tip, there is a full snack type menu available at this location. I can say that on at least two occasions I’ve come in and the smell of burnt popcorn completely filled the atrium (that doesn’t make you yearn for some corn — just say’in).
At present, this location is not fully staffed and they’re looking for new Associates, so the ones there now seems to be relatively young and trying to get a handle on what might be their first job. We’ve all had our first job and weren’t totally confident, so be mindful and courteous when you go as it may take them a little longer to work the new high-​tech system they have.
The restrooms are nice, very spacious with all the amenities one would need and they even have the new Dyson paperless hand dryers. All in all, my experiences here have been great and I really appreciate that they’ve made it where you can actually walk and have a complete evening with food, drinks and a movie all within walking distance so you can completely enjoy yourself.
I really like this new theater and I am sure you will as well.

Leather reclining seats with footrests — yes please. Assigned seating, fantastic! Although, I will have to agree with the others about the temperature. It’s damn cold in the theaters. Me, my mom and my aunt all had our winter coats on us the entire time. When it’s 17 degrees outside you shouldn’t have to freeze inside. They got some kinks to work out for sure. Parking garage is attached and a close walk which is super nice in the winter.

Ok, my first time to this Theatre. The facility was nice quite high tech as far as ticket purchase. The staff needs to take more pride in keeping the rest rooms and the Cinemas between showings cleaner. Someone spilled a drink before our movie and wet floor cones were place yet the spill was not cleaned up, leaving a sticky mess as we left.
Also, it was very pricey 49.50 for 4.

Ticket process was a pain, touch screen wasn’t working right, not very sensitive. Have to pick your seats before going into theater. Maybe better going forward but first time was a hassle. Really comfy seating but noise from movie theater next door was bothersome, actually felt the rumble and vibrations in our seats on several occasions.

I believe this theater just opened up the week we went to see Big Hero 6 just a few days ago. The place is all new and shiny but it still has bugs it needs to work out such as…
The guy at the tickets seemed a bit perplexed with tickets and prices and the seating but as it wasn’t crowded at the time it was ok. They are not a big movie complex like some AMC’s as they only have 8 theaters and at the time were only showing 4 movies. Still no biggie.
The seat are all the comfy reclining ones but they do not have dine in service (not sure if they will or not) but after all of this things went downhill. Awfully pricey to get in. We went to the 1:15 in the afternoon show and the tickets were still $ 10. While in our theater we could hear and feel the rumble of some movie being shown elsewhere and the worst part was the heating and cooling system.
We had to put our coats back on for the first half of the movie it felt like the AC was on and then towards the end we had to pull then off because all of a sudden we were baking. Complained to management about this and was told that they are still working on getting the temperature controls just right. He gave us 4 tickets for a future show at any AMC place which is where we will be going — any other place — until they get the bugs out of the place.
