Cinemark Movies 10

Every seat in this theater is like the worst seats in most other theaters. It’s like your sitting in the front row and have to look up to see the screen. This place stinks. And who puts an aisle down the middle of the theater? The middle is the best seat. Not at this dump. It’s a triple wide aisle down the middle. Worst theater I’ve ever been to.

Sadly I’ve watched this theater just degrade over the years. I worked there a decade ago and conditions were at least tolerable then, or perhaps I was just too young and naïve, as the last few times I’ve gone here, it has been harder and harder to justify going back. It has been ages since they’ve seen a cent from me for concessions. While paramount and meadowview can both offer free refills on soda and popcorn, here you’ll find none of that. The seats are the same cramped, uncomfortable styles that were there a decade plus ago, and now they want to start evening prices for movies at 4 PM, despite the other two in town still being at 6.
I live a good half hour from this theater, and I’m quickly reaching the point that if I have to go to Cinemark to see a movie, I’m heading up to Joliet. It is only 10 minutes more and, while yes, a couple dollars more, at least have comfortable, modern seating.

I worked at cinemark from 9÷14−11÷14. If there is left over popcorn at the end of the night, they bag it and use it the following morning. The butter is literally oil. Employees aren’t made to clean the butter pump correctly so you’re eating left over oil from who knows when. There is mold everywhere. When my friend had to clean under the sink in the back, she lifted a popcorn popper door and as soon as she did that, the entire theater smelled of amonia. The employees are also treated like crap. I was sexually harassed and nothing was done. The manager still works there. This is why I left and no one should give them the money.
I forced to remove pictures of the mold because my friend was threatened of loosing her job if she didn’t have me remove them. What’s that say about this place? Makes you wonder what else they’re trying to hide.

A lot of hate on this place from everyone in the area. Probably a little too much, honestly, but I’m not going to say this is the best movie theatre to exist by any means.
I’ve never been to a movie that didn’t have a mob of local teenagers being teenager-​y and nuisance-​y during a movie. Multiple times I’ve straight-​up told some to shut up. Teenagers are obviously a necessary evil of any movie theatre; however, this is probably a problem that could be controlled if the movie staffed more than 1 or 2 people at a time. I’ve ever seen such an understaffed movie theatre in my short 22 years of life. It takes about 20 – 30 minutes just to get into the theatre because they generally have one person running the cash register and concessions (and that person usually looks as if they couldn’t give a crap about their job).
The only real reason I come here is because it’s so close to me. If I ever put more than 5 minutes’ thought into going to see a movie, I’d probably find a different theatre. But that’s where they get you, I guess.

Never had a bad experience until today. Really? Charging for an 18 month old when the policy online states children under 2 is no charge is just tacky. Call me a cheapskate, but why on earth would your on site policy be different than your online policy? And why would you charge for a 1 year old? This is just greedy and ridiculous to me, but what do I know. Is Movies 10 that desperate for cash? Crazy.
