Paragon Odyssey 15 IMAX

I like this theater a lot. The theaters are nice. The chairs (!) are great. But, with this said, I’m fucking sick of the employees here. They are completely useless. The information you get from them is usually wrong. How do you get this clueless? Are you bonging all day long? I don’t get it. I really don’t. On my last visit, I had two free tickets on my loyalty card. I call ahead to make sure I can use the free tickets in conjunction with an IMAX movie. I’m told that, yes, I can use the free tickets, but I’d just have to pay the difference in price. So, long story short, I show up to see a movie, and, of course, I’m told that I cannot use the tickets for an IMAX movie. Boy, it’s a good thing I called in ahead of time to make sure about things. Also, thanks for the attitude, too. It’s always nice getting attitude from punks who are worth less than one of my Swiss watches.
After I got home, I look online, and I see that, in fact, you cannot use the free tickets for IMAX. I guess I should have just looked online. Calling the tards at Burnsville was clearly putting too much faith into people that, in the future, will most likely be turned into Soylent Green. That’s about the only useful thing I can think of for the rubes working here. And, this is on top of the other bad incidents with the loyalty program. When I went to see Star Wars a month ago, I had a free small popcorn on my card to use. So, when I go to order and I want to upgrade to a large popcorn, I’m told that, no, I cannot upgrade to a large. This is complete B.S., too. I’ve used to the card at least twice with a free small popcorn that I’ve upgraded to a large for a small fee. Simply put, interacting with the employees here is more fucking useless than trying to escape third class when the Titanic sank. I’m not sure if I’ll be coming back, either. This is the third time where the employees haven’t been able to figure out the loyalty program. Gee, is there a pattern developing?
I’ve contacted the company directly this time. Perhaps, they’ll have something to say about this. If not, I think I’m through with this place, I might not even bother to come back and try to use my free tickets. Why bother? So, that way, I can get irritated by scum employees who should be replaced by immigrants? At least that way. the employees might actually give a shit.
Update: I heard back from the Paragon management. My information will be helpful for use in their training… if you want to call it that. The time I spent going out here to see a movie, which I was assured by a Paragon employee that I could use my two free movie tickets from the rewards program, is my own problem. Apparently, their employees can tell customers complete BS, and corporate won’t bother with anything other than a cursory apology. Go fuck yourselves! I’m through with this place.

Nice comfortable recliners. Half off Tuesdays. Plus a bar upstairs! The popcorn can be old sometimes. Best theater around the south metro.

The coolest movie theater I have ever been to. Décor is gaudy with enormous statues of Greek gods and goddesses. Each auditorium sign is faceted with ancient looking frames etc. and there is a bar upstairs with a bay window.
Auditoriums themselves are furnished with dark wood and black leather. The chairs recline at the touch of a button but making them a love seat is not as comfortable as it is in other theaters.
I can’t speak enough about how cool the ambiance is so you’ll just have to see for yourself.
A huge draw back to this theater is the layout. Concessions is very small and in-​between the hallways for auditoriums. To get to your movie you have to walk through everyone waiting for food. They are also sadly understaffed at the moment and if I had waited for popcorn I would have been late for my movie. Plan to arrive fairly early if it’s a busy time.

This movie theater is the best place to watch movies!!! It is sooooooooooooooooooo kewl! The elaborate Atlantis style architecture make you feel like your really at Atlantis!!! Its soooo kewl! Little ovr priced but wut theater in these dayz isn’t? Am I right?! Yeah. Anywayz, the standard food/​consessions meet the standards. The bar/​restaurant on the top is a definite yes. The majority of the theaters, if not all the theaters, follow the hip reclinable theater trend. Where they have reclinable chairs. This is soooooooooo nice. Sumetimes, not gonna lie, I fall asleep into a nap because their so comfy!!! Bring blankets! Love this theatre! Would go again!

This is a pretty good theater, and they appear to be in the process of upgrading the seats to compete in the recliner market. That being said, I went to see Star Wars here recently and I thought it was just ok.
1. I did not care for the «love seat» option at all
2. The theater was not very clean, and especially the floor around my seat — it was very sticky, so much so that my shoe (admittedly not tied tightly) stuck and came off my foot
3. The tickets are pretty pricey– for this I would of expected full leather recliners
I prefer the Marcus theater for these reasons, though they don’t have IMAX which is a downer.

Other theaters will soon follow!!! Awesome seating with chairs that offer an electric recline feature that allows for unlimited seating positions. The theater is always playing the latest releases and offers assigned seating in many of its viewing rooms. This allows patrons the ability to guarantee seating together, know approximately how many other patrons will be viewing with them, as well as their seating location in relation to the screen ahead of time.

I think all theaters should take a lesson from this theater! I drive by here all the time, but only finally saw a show. It has an Imax theater, as well as regular movie screens. Upon ticket purchase, you will get to pick you seat and reserve it. When you walk in there is a God/​dess old world theme going on. Large ceilings that fit giant stone like statues of men and women. Since it is December, some had Santa hats on-​ha! There was also beautiful columns, and tile all over. I have never been in such a fancy theater.
Since we arrived a bit early, we headed upstairs to the Mezz, where there is a bar. Here you can buy flatbreads, wine, beer, liquor, and cocktails. I recommend getting a glass of wine, since we got a healthy pour. It is not an issue to take the plastic cups into the theater.
Now, for the best part, leather lazy-​boy chair seating in every row! I cannot believe how this was even possible. I have seen other theaters charge more to sit in the top 2 rows of comfy seats, but this was EVERY seat! No need to worry about the teenager behind you putting his feet on your head. There was so much room between rows and seats.

My son wanted to see the Peanuts movie. I googled Paragon and now they have leather recliners for seating and you can reserve and purchase your seats online. What I didn’t like is the extra $ 1.00 fee per ticket for this convenience. I did bring along a plush throw per Kara’s idea. I also brought in 2 bottles of water because I can’t justify spending $ 4.50 for a bottle there. We arrive and there is a separate kiosk where you swipe your credit card and out prints two tickets. I guess that’s convenient. Next concession stand popcorn prices are $ 6.50, $ 7 and $ 7.50. Then I see someone with a mockingjay popcorn pail. Those are $ 9 with a free refill. Son balked but moms buying. I just used a tray for my popcorn portion. We found our seats. We were in row d seats 1 and 2. So spacious and you can recline. I took off shoes and snuggled under my plush Costco throw. ⁴⁄₅ because the popcorn was so overly salty it chapped my lips. We got a free refill and told concession guy it was too salty. He got us a refill from another popcorn machine. I put the excess popcorn in plastic bags when I returned home. I do not recommend buying their popcorn. I enjoyed the recliner seating and would probably watch movies at this theater from now on. I sure hope they clean the recliners regularly.

I love this theater. First off, I was able to see an IMAX 3d movie for the price I pay to see a regular movie at home. $ 16. Second, I reserved my seat in the 21+ reserved seating section. No kids to kick the back of your chair. They have nice leather seats that convert to love seats in case you want to snuggle up and enjoy the movie next to your partner. Third, it was frigging IMAX 3d! I saw Antman and it was great but better still before the movie started I was lucky enough to be able to see the new Star Wars trailer. Also in 3d. Also on the IMAX and it was glorious!
Before the movie, since I arrived an hour early, I stopped and had a beer at Mezz which is a full bar upstairs in the theater. It was $ 5 for a Summit IPA, but that’s alright pricing for this type of place. It’s a nice spacious area which if I lived here would serve as my rally point for my friends and I to meet up before the show. I also bought a large popcorn and soda for $ 13.50 (I think. I lost my receipt) which makes it cheaper than my theater back home for that as well.

I am giving this place a one star review based on my recent visit and not the four-​star previous visits. The sound and picture were great, so let’s get that out of the way. My issue and one-​star review is based on their new recliner seating arrangement. We saw Mad Max Fury Road on ⁵⁄₁₆ or ⁵⁄₁₇ and sat in the back row of whichever theater that movie was playing in. They have now erected a «wall,» which prevents anyone from actually seeing the bottom portion of the screen. I am 5’7″ and couldn’t recline and had to use my arms to prop myself up. The kid next to me had to sit on his dad’s lap. I drove to the Lakewood theater today, because I didn’t want to miss the bottom portion of the movie. I’m not sure how someone designs something without testing it, but they managed to do so.

Best movie experience I’ve had in a theater! Each chair in theater #3 is a recliner. I came on a Friday at 3pm and it was only $ 7.50 for admission. Highly recommended this place! Came to see the movie Avengers.

Have never really liked this theater much, yet I keep going back. Well, no more. Every time I’ve been there, it’s been dirty. They do a lousy job cleaning between shows and the lobby and common areas are always strewn with popcorn and other trash. Yesterday was it. Paid extra to experience American Sniper on the IMAX screen. The entryway was covered in popcorn. Our seats had half eaten nachos, hotdog wrappers, one half of a Pepsi and dirty napkins all over the arm rests. I asked the staff to send in the cleaners to remedy the problem. He called in the cleanup, but nobody ever showed. I’m done with this place.

I love going to this theatre for many reasons. The main one is that it offers vip 21+ seating so you don’t have to sit next to a loud kid.
You can also bring one of the bars delicious cocktails in to the movie after 3pm. I recommend the blue snowcone-​tastes just like a ice with alcohol. The punch is very good as well although stay away from the caramel apple.
The bar makes food too such as the flatbread pizza which is pretty good-​kinda greasy and its on a plate that’s too big for the seat tables in the theatre so you need to eat it in the bar area.
They have a imax 3d which makes any action movie look incredible. I prefer the seats in the reg 21 vip section to the imax one-​more plush. But still very comfortable and leather.
Its the main theatre I go to an def recommend it.

Watched Hercules in IMAX 3D just the other night. The screen was like any other IMAX screen but the sound was what surprised me. The clarity was crystal clear and the volume was perfect. The surround sound was pinpoint accurate and extremely detailed in the sound projection. I first noticed the superb sound quality when the popcorn kernels started popping on the screen and the soda fizzing over the ice cubes.
The seating is comfortable. The screen is huge and the 3D effect just jumps out you. For $ 18.50 a ticket, it’s not cheap. It’s actually pretty steep. But I’m one of those movie fanatics who don’t mind paying a premium to watch a blockbuster movie. Dark Knight comes to mind…

Okay normally I wouldn’t write a review of a movie theater because hey… its a movie theater. This is an exception however bcause the fact that you could drink in a theater was so forign to my little california self that I had to say how awesome it was. Only reason I knocked off a star was cause the popcorn was stale and thats like one of the main reasons I go to the movies in theaters.
Anyhew quick and breezy review the bar at the movie theater rocked it for how busy it was right before the movies started. Strong drinks too which made the über comfy bouncy leather seats fun to sink into. It was really awesome to feel like i was at home relaxing while watching an epically large 3D movie.

Been here twice, and both visits were the best going movie experience I’ve had! Very clean theater, comfortable seats, and they even serve tap beer!
I’ll never go to another theater even though I live 20 minutes closer to a regal.
Buy you tickets online so you can reserve your specific seat!

Love this theatre! Especially love the 21+ level which has great food and alcoholic beverages. The décor is BEAUTIFUL! The seats are comfy and everything is always very clean! Food/​drink is expensive ($ 4.50 for a bottle of water) but no different than any other theatre.
Also I think it is awesome that this theatre employs many people with special needs :)

I actually have to drop this place from 4 stars to one star based on my recent visits.
That being said, this theater recently sucks!
One time my wife and I came to see a noon show. They had NO and I mean actually NO lights on at all in the theater before the movie. Everyone used their cell phones to find seats. They did no music or pre-​movie promos. So it was dead quiet and literally pitch black (like imagine being inside a cave with no daylight). We did all entertain ourselves till the movie started by making shadow animals on the screen with the light of our cell phones.
Another time my wife and I came to see an evening show and sit in the VIP seating upstairs. We got there early and I wanted to order some fun food from the upstairs bar/​restaurant. I went up to the bar and told the bartender I wanted to order some food. He told me I could over at the area with the «Order Here» sign. Ok, that makes sense. I stood at the area that says «Order Here» for 15 minutes while servers walked back and forth seeing us and not even acknowledging we were there. I then went back to the bartender to tell him what was happening and he said «you need to order from over there». I explained no one was helping anyone in the «Order Here» area and he said «well, that’s where you have to order. Someone will help you». So I went back to that area, waited another 10 minutes while actively trying to get the attention of the servers and was completely ignored.
So, needless to say — this theater is run like crap and all of these issues seem to point back directly at management doing a poor job.
I want so much to be able to elevate this theater to the status they had, but there will have to be some MAJOR changes in the way management does their job (or starts to actually do their job — simple oversight and attention to detail could solve ALL of these problems for no cost.)
With the layout, the technology and the facilities this could really be an amazing place to see a movie — they just need to get their stuff together first.

Great place for a movie near my hotel. Had a good beer on tap called Brooklyn Ale in the restaurant located upstairs. Great way to wait 20 minutes for my movie to start. Liked the chairs as they were comfortable and they reclined. Save your money on popcorn and go upstairs where you can get real food for the same price. Nice and safe theatre with lots of parking.

Came to the grand opening and was lucky enough to win all the free movies I wanted to see in 2012 at Paragon theaters. I saw close to 100 films and I’m still coming as a regular despite my «gold pass» expiring. It’s pricey but I always VIP when possible.
Many bartenders have come and gone but they are very accommodating at the Mezz bar when able. If u do come an do the VIP experience I recommend at least 30 – 60 min early to get a cocktail as everyone swarms in last minute before entering.
The theater has had quirks but they always get it fixed.
