Legacy 3 Theatre — Local services in Shenandoah

The seats here are absolutely astounding! Super comfy recliners with cushions you can sink into, lean back, and prop up your feet while popping your drink into a cup holder.

However, the actual movie viewing experience is greatly lacking. The video screen looks kinda washed out and the audio is terrible! The speakers might be going out or something. The volume is just a bit too loud, which is especially bad since the highs sound piercing and grating, while the lows are quieter than everything else.

I recommend watching a movie here yourself at least once to experience the great seating, and to be able to judge the theater quality on your own to see if you think it's just as bad as I do. But when I go to see a movie, I always go to Maryville's Hangar Theater just an hour away, which if you live in Clarinda right in the center of the two makes the choice pretty clear.

I remember seeing a couple 3D movies here as a kid. I wish they'd...

Movie went out in the beginning, but sound continued. Somebody alerted staff and they relocated everybody to a theater upstairs after a while. Saw a manager shrug when asked by another employee "Will everyone fit up there?" They offered free drink refills, which was nice.

What really got me was that when people asked for a refund so they could leave, the manager would proceed to escalate her tone and yell, "No, no refunds, we don't do that here." Repetitively in front of the crowd relocating. I don't think that should be out of the question considering they may have places to be and are on a schedule that the technical difficulties got in the way of. Not to mention those with disabilities probably had a hard time getting upstairs to the backup theater.

I'm all about supporting local business, but this was a bad first...

I personally have nothing against this theater and I will continue to keep going since it’s so much cheaper than driving to the AMC in Council Bluffs. But when I went to go see the Barbie movie, I was sold a ticket even though it was mostly sold out. I had gotten there 2 minutes late and walked into a completely dark full theater. I had to sit on the floor of the aisle and was tripped on the whole time. I’m just saying, if you’re going to have a sell out, please arrange the orders by seat number so I can actually find a spot and sit comfortably without it being a hassle. I should’ve got a refund...
