Movies Havasu — Local services in Lake Havasu City

For an older movie theatre, it's good! The chairs could be a little more comfortable, but the theatre sound is good, staff is friendly, and they host various business and school fundraisers, which is a great support for the community. I don't usually feel the need to drive out of my way to Star; this theatre is nice too!

UPDATE: I am updating my review to 5 stars because I was VERY pleased with the cost, quality, and service when I hosted my son's 8th birthday party here. The manager, Griselda, was very kind and accommodating, and although there's not a private room for the birthday table, it didn't feel awkward or out of place. We had a fairly small group (11 total), so it might not have worked as well for a larger group, but I was very satisfied with the service we received. They set up the table with decorations and balloons, served up the trays quickly, accommodated the children well, and offered to clean up so we could get into our showing. Thank you Movies Havasu for your great service and making my son's birthday a success!

UPDATE #2: This is still my favorite movie theater! When I went to the movies yesterday, I was surprised to find that they had done a serious upgrade to their seating: they are now cushy (p)leather seats that electronically recline. They were so comfortable! That aside, the staff is still so friendly and even when it is busy, they get you your tickets and snacks fast so that you can get to the show! I also appreciate that they offer showings of titles that you might only see in a bigger city otherwise (like anime!). Thanks for being awesome,...

I LOVE coming here. If you go through the day the movie is $5.50- even new releases. Some new releases aren't $5.50, but $8- but still. We live on the island, and its a nice five minute drive from home to the theatre- even if I hit the lights. The theatre isn't new, and a little dated, but it doesn't effect my movie going experience. The real piece de resistance is the AMAZING pop corn. My husband loves going to movies, and always gets pop corn- i never do- unless it's at this theatre, in which case I Always do. The popcorn is the best theatre pop corn i have ever had.....ever. The staff are friendly and quick, they all seem to be cross trained and if there are line ups either at the ticket counter or the concession stand, it dissolves quickly. Theatre size is a little small, but that doesn't bother me at all. The theatres have brand new chairs that recline and older ones- which are totally fine. I can't say enough about this place. It's amazing amazing amazing. I LOVE going to the movies when we're here...

The competing theater has stadium seating. Movies Havasu does not (not since we have most recently seen a movie here anyway). Both Movies Havasu and the other theater in town, to our knowledge, offer discount days on ticket prices and concessions. This theater is smaller and has one small concession stand that was open the times we have been here. There is a second concession stand tucked away next to one of the theater rooms, but it was never open the times we watched movies at this location. The floor was often sticky the small number of times we have gone. This theater is located closer to the center of the city, but because of that, it is often crowded. I do not know if they offer birthday specials or have a party room like the other theater does. The staff is not outright rude here, but they are not friendly either in our opinion. Parking can be difficult. This location is next to a pizza place, a Mexican food restaurant and other restaurants as well. It is nearby one of Lake Havasu City's...
