Completed Aug 5, 2026 · 55 reviews flagged

How this score works

The score estimates how strongly this place's review record matches known manipulation patterns, from 0 (no signs) to 100. Verdicts: Clean below 40, Suspicious from 40, Likely Manipulated from 70; Review Drive when the flags are mostly staff asking customers for named reviews. It rises with the share of reviews flagged and how suspicious each one is.

Burst
— an abnormal spike of five-star reviews in a single day compared to the place's usual pace.
Low activity account
— the reviewer has almost no other reviews, photos, or Local Guide history; throwaway accounts look like this.
Duplicate text
— the wording is nearly identical to another review of the same place.

Verdicts are statistical estimates based on public review patterns, not accusations. Full methodology, signal definitions and known limits →

Clean, lots of theatres, good sound, food quality, modern screens for ticketing and concessions that actually work, rewards program that actually seems to not be a ripoff, immediate discount on tickets as soon as you sign up

Nice little gem in the south loop! You can catch some shopping and good food prior to/or after the showtime. They have a bar upstairs (open to the public), the drinks are amazing and strong! The staff is super friendly! Love the recliner...

I normally love coming here but this time was not all that great. They used to scan the tickets right from your phone and now you have to do it through a computer and order your food on there as well. Which, isn’t a big deal but there is on...

Ordering and kiosk system

Reviewers complain that automated kiosks and contactless food ordering are slow, confusing, and cause long delays.

The theaters over reliance on using technology takes away from a.quality theater set up - the efforts to reduce staff that requires you to use technology actually slows down the process. Having to present my QR, to a screen, that prints th...

Ordering food here is a total nightmare. You can only order from a self-service kiosk, and they only have two in the whole place. Only 1 of 2 self service kiosks worked and it was probably the most confusing self-service UX I have ever deal...

Parking fees and time limits

Reviewers frequently complain about expensive parking fees that accrue once movies run past the two-hour validation limit.

This theater has some VIP seats priced at 21 bucks with some cool features. So, I wanted to see what that was about. I went to see the Lost city at night and I was disappointed when I had to pay for parking. I know that's to be expected fro...

They should really find a way to streamline the food ordering process. My first movie experience in Chicago, arrived early to catch 'Everything Everywhere All At Once' .. Paid $30 for icee and chicken nachos and almost missed all the previe...

This was my first time back to the movies in years. I am happy I went. I came extra early and went to the bar. I forgot the bartenders name. Maybe jackie. She said it was her second day back and i liked talking to her. It was a good choice to bring her back. I had beer. She knew when I needed anot...
