AMC Market Fair 15 — Local services in Fayetteville

I know this theater did their upgrades a while ago now, but we hadn't been there for a movie since they did. Decided after seeing several movies at other theaters the past couple of months to go here on a cold and rainy Saturday night. I purchased our 3 tickets online in advance, reserving our specific seats, which is really a must if you intend on being seated together. LOVED the heated reclining seating. I know better to reserve further in advance next time to get better seats, but even seats B1-B3 weren't exactly bad. Just a little closer to the screen and farther out to the right side than we'd normally sit. All in all it was a good experience. I think I'm ruined now & will probably attend movies at this theater. One thing that did happen about 20 minutes into our movie was something I'd never experienced before. The movie stopped, the lights came on, and about 4 employees came in and requested everyone have their tickets stubs in hand (I had a screenshot of ours on my phone from the online purchase). Since these are RESERVED SEATS, make sure you've not slipped into another movie after another one ends, (yes, I've heard of folks doing that), OR don't try to get a better seat just because it was empty when you came in. I saw 2 people have to leave the theater, and 3 others had to move to the seats they were supposed to be in so the other folks could sit in their assigned seats. The theater & restroom were also very clean. Plenty of options for snacks, other food items, & drinks, including a bar where you could purchase alcohol if that's your thing. Other than that (acceptable) hiccup with the movie being stopped to verify seating, we loved it and...

If I could give 0 stars, I would. This is based off of the quality of the movie, not the staff of the facility. I went to the AMC Market Fair 15 in Fayetteville, North Carolina, with some friends to enjoy a nice movie. When we arrived, staff was polite and courteous. As we went into the actual showing theater, something just felt a tad bit off. About a quarter of the way into the film, the screen turns green. Mistakes happen and we move on from them so that didn't bother me much...at least for the first few minutes. The whole green tinted screen lasted a solid fifteen minutes so at that point I am a little agitated. The screen gets fixed and we're right back to the movie. Another 25 to 30 minutes goes by and then the screen is suddenly purple. I mean one time is understandable, but twice? We figure that it won't take much time to figure out the issue since they had done it less than an hour beforehand, but to our unfortunate surprise, it took another 15 to 20 minutes for the movie to finally by fixed. I couldn't even stay the whole time because I believed it would happen again and to no shock, it did. Apparently 20 or so minutes after I left (a few friends stayed behind), the screen began switching back and forth between green and purple and it took another 30 minutes just to fix that. Mistakes happen, but my god...three times in not just one night, but one showing, is down right ridiculous and unprofessional.

I suggest you save your money and go somewhere that you won't have to clear out a whole other hour from your schedule just to see a...

Read the whole review for a WILDLY great story about how much Fayetteville is turning around (at the end) 😎😂 I have lived in Fayetteville for almost 17 years. I was coming here in my early 20s, and I now drop my teens off here for dates. I'm getting old 🥴. I hadn't been here in years and I spent $130 at cinebistro the week before thinking it was the place to be for a date night: To my surprise, the seats at cinebistro look like something you put on the curb. N.A.S.T.Y. We came here on a whim, and it is MUCH better inside the theater. I was downright SHOCKED at the quality of your location. Brand new awesome recliners with heat, half walls, so you can't see the people in front of you. It's NICE! It's SAFE! Now for the good stort: In comparison, the last time I came here at night (many years ago) someone l tried to break in my car but a task force was on the roof (because there were so break-ins), saw them, called it in to the police on the ground, and a police chase ensued (yes, it was a REALLY nice car). They literally had to go through every theater with an officer and flashlights to come find me to file a report. Fayetteville has really cleaned up this area. It doesn't even feel like Fayetteville from the minute you park. 100% I'll be back here, and I'm very confident in dropping off my teens with no apprehension. ...
