The popcorn here with butter is more like straight vegetable oil tinted butter color with a heap of salt more than anything. I just feel wrong eating it. I went once with a visitor from Conway and they said it was awful too in comparison to what's served in a theater up there, plus the price he considered too high. I have done the same comparison to a theater in Monroe I now go to all the time. Yes, it's nearly a 2-hour trip but at least there is decent shopping down there compared to what's near this theater in Monticello, so I can make up for the trip distance with some added value. But besides all that, what I really dislike about this theater is the price of tickets! $7+ for matinee tickets and $9 for a regular showing. And, the last time I went here there was no 3D when alternatively, there is in Monroe and the prices are cheaper for that, plus standard showings and both for matinee too.

Needless to say, this theater needs to update and at least compete for business and take their ticket prices down. With some changes, I would stay in Monticello more and go here. With the way this theater now I feel like I’m being ripped off and...

Him to agree to see a movie that came on later when we came in they let us come for free it means alot to me we really didn't have the extra money but it was my fault so I told him we would go so I was so excited when there was not charge thanks again it...
   Read moreI was craving a dairy queen blizzard before the movie, ended up having to wait over 30 minutes for it so i didn’t have time to eat it prior to the movie. Since ice cream is not on the movie theater menu, I don’t see an issue for it to be brought inside. I was rudely interrupted while trying to order my ticket and my completely full blizzard was taken from me! I am not happy. #letagirleat...
