I used to go to this theater on quite often when I was a kid, and was finally able to return for the first time since I was a kid, I purchased the ticket online which seems simple enough, but it didn't give you a barcode it only said the seat number and auditorium and to show the email to a staff member, when I arrived it was open and nice-looking much lke theaters used to be, but no one was working at the desk so there was no one to show the ticket to or to get it printed, I went to the snack bar to check out the prices and see if I could get something, unfortunately the prices are somewhat higher than other theaters so way too outrageously expensive to afford anything. Also the restrooms floors and sinks and around the toilets were clean, but the metal walls to the stalls had a sick layer of dust on the top, and smears of grease and filth all over them is if they haven't been wiped down in a very long time.
I went to my seat of which the auditorium was very nicely set up clean well laid out and great seats, although everything looked nice, the moment the sound started became like a nightmare. it was so loud that you could feel the vibrations in the walls, floors, seats and even your bones, before the movie even started I tried putting in kid earplugs that I will use if the movie is slightly too loud, even then it was way too loud, so I tried putting in the regular adult ear plugs, even with that it was still far far too loud, so I went to complain about the sound level and to lower it, as I exit the auditorium and I'm walking down the hall with the door closed behind me, it was still able to be heard as if I was in the room, after trying to get them to lower the sound, it is unlikely that they lowered it at all because I could not tell the difference, the sound vibrating off the walls kept distracting during the movie, after going to the movie I had a severe migraine for at least a couple days because of it. They eventually got in touch with me after writing a review.
Second experience update, seeing if it was just a one-time experience, so far not very good, I tried to buy a ticket online again but it will not let me choose a seat and doesn't say why, Worked eventually. I went to a flashback the sound was just right, the atmosphere was good and clean, but this time the lights were left on all the away, through the entire movie, until literally the last 5 minutes of the movie, then turn them off completely, and because there's no credits at the end it was completely black inside, not even the guiding lights on the floor to guide people to and from auditoriums, so we had to wait for them to turn them back on.
as much as I love the movie, it was extremely unrelaxing trying to watch the movie with lights on all the way blaring from both sides. They literally left the lights on full, and by the time anyone would realize that they're not going to turn the lights off, the movie has already started, and you would have to get up during the movie that you paid for, and miss it just to tell them to turn the lights off.
Update from lights being left on response from emagine theater, they said that they did that on purpose for for some random group that has a chance of coming, they said they leave it on slightly brighter for people to interact. It would have been perfectly fine if the lights were left on slightly, but they were left on all the way. Then they responded saying that it tells you that this is going to be the situation clearly stated, it was not not from where I purchased my tickets online, but their apology wasn't really an apology it was basically stating that dementia friendly was clearly stated, as if that's supposed to tell Me that the lights are going to be left on all the way through the whole movie, and that if I see some random wording on a movie, I can call them or get in touch with them to find out what it means, who would be willing or have time to do that just to find out what is up with a certain movie playing at their theater! Strongly discouraged choosing...

I do not recommend this theater if you care about your hearing or being respected as a supporter, if I am able to go to another movie at this theater, I will update as to how that experience goes, this will be my...
Read moreIf you have a disability that is walking related but you can still walk, maybe give yourself a little more time to walk. If you are not able to hold food or drinks check and see but you can have it delivered but I do not know the process but that would definitely help me a lot but will see next time and post on my channel and update on here. If you choose or need to transfer from chair to seat, there is plenty of room. The food options are great. The recliner is comfortable and adjustable for those who need to change positions or not be able to sit constantly for over an hour. I have not used the restroom, but it is not too far, but I would recommend using it before because... but depending on disability and needs. Going independently is a great option because they have a row for those with disabilities and they have a wheelchair accessible path, and the timer to the handicap door is much better than others where I feel like I have to race in order to not get hit by it. It's a theater where I can feel normal, and even with the stares and pointing from ignorant people, I can have a great time of entertainment. Handicapable Black Woman I will add more pics next time but proof of snacks, seats, and handicap row. I hope you enjoy the experience. Stay wonderful! If you are in theater 3 or 4 and walking disability, it's a walk, so make sure you give yourself enough time or if you have a scooter would be helpful. They would almost lose a star because their slushy machine was down and felt like I was at McDonald's. 😞
Ran into some racism Saturday. My sister was waiting in the pre-order line and for a few minutes. No one cane to assist her. A few minutes later a white guy walked up and within seconds someone came to help them and skipped my sister. My sister had to say she was there first and... they showed they want our money but not our bodies in their seats.
Back again. This time was better customer service but was not pre-ordered. The nacho fries were very good and a good amount of toppings. I try a transfer from different angles each time and with my disability in the winter is more complicated but still doable for those...
