Cinemark Towson and XD

Movie Time
I came here for a screening last week. The theater itself was very nice however, I have to say when your ordering your food, the line for it is very weird. I was extremely confused and left the food section lol. They should have a better instructions on how to order food.
So instead I just ordered a beer (Angry Orchard).
I was very surprised how they confiscate your cell phones and place them in individual bags for the movie and provide you with a ticket number. I don’t really care for that, like what if there’s an emergency hypothetically speaking. I went to Arundel Mills theater for a screening and they never did this. Yea I get it, they don’t want you to record a movie that’s not out yet but ⁹⁄₁₀ it’s someone from the inside who distribute the bootlegs (i’m just saying).
That’s the only thing I did not like about this theater. The bathrooms are clean and very accessible.
I will come here again.

I have lived in Maryland for 4 years and I really enjoy going to the movies. But, this movie theater was the worst one I have ever been to in this state. The majority of the patrons of the theater were inappropriate and disrespectful. I will never come back to this theater. So, take heed to the warning.

The lines wasn’t bad to get in but food line was long. The free movie screening was actually great to me. The mix drink Rum and Ruzz was excellent and on point and I always recommend the breaded cheesy shrimp with fries yummy. First time trying the pizza was also thumbs up to me.

Today (Monday) I went for the first time for a matinée. I gather it could be a nightmare come Friday night but this place is ridiculously comfortable.

Great Movie experience. This was my first time to this theater. I loved the reserved seating. I didn’t have any snacks as I came from dinner but they seem to have a full Buffet line which I will try next time.

First time here, it’s an early Sunday afternoon movie at lunch time. The concession stand has only 5 regular hot dogs and 10 large with a children’s movie and several others playing. The condiments container was empty, so the night shift didn’t restock, and management didn’t check after their employees.
The theater was itself was awesome. The reclining seats quite comfy.
The biggest drawback is cost, but if you want to see something like Star Wars or other blockbuster these bug screens are awesome.

Quick update. You can get your parking validated before going to see your movie. A number of people seem to wait until after they leave to get it validated and pay for the parking. A couple of downsides I’ve noticed consistently since its opening: for whatever reasons the Men’s Bathrooms never seem clean. There seems to be an overflowing garbage can, or paper towels on the floor. The other thing I’ve noticed is the last couple of times only one side has been open at the concession stand. On the opening night of Mockingjay there was a large crowd but only one side was open with three people fulfilling popcorn orders. One last item, which is actually beyond their control: this theater must the nexus for the rudest movie goers in the region. Consistently people talk LOUDLY during films and in one case I saw someone using their smartphone to take pictures of a scene on screen. I never see this kind of behavior at AMC White Marsh or Regal Hunt Valley when I go to those theaters and it has influenced where I’ve seen my last couple of movies.

So I came here again on a saturday night for an 8oclock showing of Creed and again it felt stressed and hectic.
We were one car amongst lots of cars driving around looking for a spot. On top of the parking structure being really crammed and tight, you have to maneuver around drunk and hapless people driving huge SUV’s trying to hit you. The parking lot is badly designed… so that after a certain point it deadends without warning (how about a sign?) and you have to turn around using a narrow 3 point turn. Did I mention everything and everyone is packed in there really tight and the corners are narrow and there are drunk and reckless people driving huge SUV’s?
Again like last time I wanted to leave and we hadn’t even parked. We finally found parking and went to the reserve section. The service was apathetic. You order at the counter and then they bring the food into you at your seat they say. Again I was confused. They give you a buzzer in case they can’t find you. Then the server stepped over everyone to give us our food and I was confused as to whether to tip him or not. Then in the dark I figured out they got my order wrong. I paid extra for rosemary fries and got regular fries =(but who do I tell? the movie had started. I’ve been to the alamo drafthouse many times and it was not nearly as confusing. Why don’t they take your order while you are in there? the reserve seats are on the balcony and aren’t much better than the regular seats except they have a little slit that comes out of the chair where you can place your food but you have to sit according to assigned seats which I don’t care for. I would say the regular seats were better and had better legroom. Then I go to the restroom and they were out of toilet paper in some stalls and the staff person was acting like she was only helping people she knew.
I really don’t get it, this place tries and looks to be a fancy place and it is and it isn’t.
I’m sorry but this place does not do it for me at all. Never again.

Although I live close to this theater, today was my first time seeing a movie here.
THE GOOD…
–appeared clean inside
–popcorn was good
–theater/​concession staff were friendly
–theater seat was comfortable
–didn’t use it, but they do have a small arcade inside
THE BAD…
–intro to movie had no sound… another patron had to get a staff member
–lights did not turn off when movie began… another patron had to get someone yet again
–parking can be pain… discount with validation… should really be free with validation
–for a matinée it was a bit pricey
Overall my initial experience here was ok. Would have given more stars if the sounds/​lights situation never happened.

Went to the movies in a FRIDAY NIGHT! The facility is beautiful, the amenities are too of the line. That’s where it ends. There was only one side of the concessions open and the front side. There were unmanaged, unguided and poorly trained staff trying to serve an underwhelmed and highly irritated group of patrons! There were younger folks in what seemed to be in a position of authority. She made a banner decision to close the one register and now leave guest in a long line while she TRAINED two younger girls how to ring up guests.
There were four hot-​dogs cooking, all of the other items were cooked on-​demand. But only when the one girl at the counter went into the back to tell the other FOUR girls they had something to do. It seemed as if the patients at the nuthouse were running the facility. The general manager should be ashamed if not fired!
This experience was nothing shy of a major cluster F%*k for myself and all of the other guests who muttered the same things «are you f^{King kidding me».
Get your shit together Cinemark Towson. Built an entire stadium complex, only to shit the bed on the most important part! Guest Services!

Great location. Ample parking. Wonderful seats. Huge screens. Friendly staff. Perfect for an afternoon with my daughter.

First time here… gotta pay to park but the theater validates parking so you get a discount…$ 2 for 4 hours. The best thing about this theater is… They have kettlecorn!!! I was sooooo happy to see it because I’m not really a fan of buttery salty popcorn… the other awesome thing is… the seats are comfy, just make sure you don’t sit in front of long legged people cos when you recline you might hit their legs or they might be an annoying neighbor and keep banging their feet on your seat like mine did (grrr)
There’s also other options (full bar, restaurant if you pay for VIP seats) but I’m not THAT high maintenance so I just bought my tix from my company’s corporate website for a nice discount :)
Will be back with the boo, might splurge on the love seat next time lol!

Sunday morning matinees with the groupon discount for the cheap win. Incredibly clean, low key, relatively empty for an 11am showing. Great food concession stand (with alcohol) but pricey, as you already know. Great, friendly staff. Will be returning soon.

The Towson Cinemark is a great theater. It’s clean, centrally located, spacious, well-​lit, has nice technology, and plays all new-​release movies. For these reasons, I feel it serves its purpose of entertaining.
First, you do have to pay for parking if you want to park closely, but that’s not surprising because you have to pay for parking essentially everywhere nearby, even the public library. So, simply validate your parking with your movie ticket and one of their parking ticket machines in the theater. It’s only a few dollars. The closest parking is in the connecting parking garage at the top level (you’ll walk directly into the back entrance of the theater within 1 minute). If you absolutely don’t want to pay for parking, go across the way and park at the shopping center and take the short walk to the theater.
Secondly, you can catch the «Early Bird» showing, which is offered 7 days a week if you don’t want to spend more than $ 7 per person OR if you just can’t stand crowds of people.
Third, to avoid the ticket line, you have two alternative options, buy your ticket online or purchase it from one of the kiosks at the main entrance. Purchasing doesn’t take long at all, although I wouldn’t recommend arriving at the theater at the exact start time of your anticipated movie.
Overall, I enjoyed my experience here. Plus, you have eateries within walking distance if you’re hungry after your movie.

Only downside: (which is why im docking that point) you pay for parking but its for the theater.
$ 4 (could be more if you stay longer) when i went from 9-​midnight. Parking is around the corner and there is a drop off section.
Theater itself is pretty damn good. Friendly staff. Don’t know why there are such poor reviews. I went for a weekday night movie though so it was nice and quiet. I can see that place becoming easily packed and noisy but thats some of the fun with going out to the movies.
Popcorn smelled good but I didnt try any and there is food and ice cream there as well. Pretty fantastic. So great experience overall and I’ll be back… Lol

So let me just say i have not been to the movie theatre since the movie the first hunger games came out many years ago… and that was at the whitemarsh mall loews.
When i walked into the theater i was very impressed. It has multiple leavels and escalators that take you to your designation.
I went to see Jurrasic world and requested to pay the extra money for the upper level seating. Upon requesting the section the manager actually upgraded my seats for free and escorted us to the very top of the movie theater and showed us to our seats.
First of all i have never in my life been escorted by anyone in a theater to my seat. i was just told the number i had to look for and what side it was one. So naturally i was already impressed.
I sent my boyfriend to the bar to get some drinks and some popcorn and he came back with a delicious black berry spritzer specialty drink. It was absolutely delicious. I felt as if i was home lounging on my leather sofa but i was actually in the towson cinemark.
To be quite honest 7 minutes into jurrasic world i tool my flip flops off and accidently fell asleep leaning on my boyfriend. I didnt wake up until the movie ended. So naturally i have to go back to see the movie again and i will be returning the towson cinemark… except this time i am going to get an iced coffee lol.

Still a great viewing experience. We opted to get the VIP tickets which were about 20 each. We had use of the lounge areas and you get free popcorn. Which is a perk! We did however pay $ 6 per beer but that was expected. I myself am a person who doesn’t like to sit next to people in the theatre so having the choice to choose my seats away and secluded were great. I felt like I was in my living room watching it. The only negative experience I had was in the ladies room. It was horrible! No paper towels, the floor was wet and tissue was all over the floor. With 4 stalls and 2 sinks you would assume it would be spotless but I guess not. We will definitely be back. I think this is our new adult movie spot.

Who doesn’t like liquor while watching a movie? LOL
I’d say Cinemark hit the mark with their newest theater.
This place is very spacious. The theaters themselves boast comfy seats and adequate space between patrons. The huge screens are also a plus. Their sound is superb.
An added bonus is the 2 buck parking you get once your ticket is validated. That’s 2 bucks for 4 hrs of parking. Can’t beat it!
I’ve been here on about 3 – 4 different occasions and am never disappointed.

Love the theatre, parking is a nightmare though
The reserve level is wonderful and a great treat!

I’ve been here once, on a Tuesday (tickets are only $ 6.50!,) and the crowd was CRAZY.
Tons of kids running around and tweens texting and bumping into inanimate objects due to their lack of looking up.
However, the seats were comfortable, the place was clean, and I enjoyed the sound and quality of the movie (for the price).
I’m definitely coming back, and I just might even pay full price for a regular show!
PS– their pretzels bites are delicious.
