Century 16 Corpus Christi

So far this theater has been the cleanest theater in Corpus Christi. They have delicious buttery popcorn and great hot dogs. The seats are comfortable and clean. The restrooms are always kept clean. I hardly ever run into any long lines when purchasing my ticket. I’ve actually started using fandango to purchase my ticket. I downloaded the app and use the bar code to get in.

Solid place for a night out at the movies. Probably the best theater in Corpus. Pretty clean, comfortable seats, fresh butter popcorn!

Best cinema in Corpus Christi!
One thing I do NOT miss about DC is the prices for movies! As a veteran I get a discount –it’s less than $ 6! Amazing!
This is the cleanest and most comfortable theater in town. It’s relatively clean and well-​maintained and I’ve never seen cups and boxes from the previous show left over in the seats. It’s not big city quality but then it’s not big city prices.

I’m a disabled veteran who had to get out of the military due to injuries and was just told I didn’t qualify for a discount due to not being active duty. I’m heading to Starplex. I’ll put up with the rats because at least they honor for vets.

Had a terrible time. The man who took my ticket was exceptionally rude. The heavy set girl (Hispanic) who gave me my tickets was also rude. At the last part of my movie, the screen went dark and the power went out. Not their fault but then I asked for my money refunded and they just gave me some coupons for any Cinemark but the only one for 100’s of miles is this one or the dollar one with no good movies. All in all very disappointed. I would say I won’t go back but Ya…100’s or miles guarantees I’m stuck going to this crummy one. Hope they fire the people in charge and hire some people worthy of keeping a job.

They have really dirty chairs, some staffs are very friendly and some don’t seem like they enjoy their job, hey at least the screens are big and they sell popcorn. :)

Nice place, clean and with nice and dynamic attitude, believe me hard to see in a movie theater now a day. Popcorn was tasty, warm and freshly made. Floors were clean and not sticky, that’s a plus.

This is the best movie theatre and every weekend on for a movie!!! And today for the first time watching a Bollywood Movie here
Excited

Theater staff wasn’t very friendly. The seats were nice, but the theater (11) smelled like mold. You get accustomed to it but when you walk into it the first time, it really hits you in the face.

Nice accommodations and seats. Concessions $$$. I miss the days when a movie, popcorn, and a drink for 2 didn’t set me back $ 50

It’s a theater where anyone can pay their money and get in… and with that it’s subject to the abuses the public will bring down upon it. Sometimes the theaters have sticky floors. Sometimes there’s an odd odor.
What sets Century 16 apart is that the staff comes in between shows and sweeps every time. Their courteous and helpful. Concessions are mostly efficient. I have NEVER experienced sticky floors at a first showing of the day which suggests they mop nightly.
The place is the cleanest in town, friendly staff and seats are comfy. And… you don’t have to worry AS MUCH about the safety of your vehicle. No place in CC I s immune, but it’s safer than the other venues.

Disgusting. So dirty. The seats are stained with God knows what, floors are extremely sticky and the restrooms are so disgusting. Barely 1 clean stall available. Oh and the actual theaters smell like urine.

Very organized and you don’t have to wait long in any line. I’ve been to lots of theaters and this one is by far the best I’ve ever been to.
The only complaint I have is that if you go see a movie that’s been in the theaters for a while, you go into a smaller theater, which equal smaller seats for some reason. They were still comfortable but you can definitely notice the difference.

As far as Corpus Christi theaters go, this, IMHO, is the best one. Clean. Friendly staff. And IMAX lite. I say IMAX lite, because it isn’t an actual full blown IMAX. That notwithstanding, I still enjoy the movie «experience» when I come.
Now the snack prices… well, they are what they are everywhere. So, there’s no needed to single this theatre out as unreasonably priced, when they all are.

Me and the honey have been to this theater twice since coming to Corpus, the only theater we’ve been to so far! We came to see The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug when it first came out, and most recently we saw Her. (Both good movies)
Having previously worked at a movie theater I have an eye for what to expect and what is acceptable.
Let’s start with Box Office alright? The prices here are good! If you have the opportunity to use Fandango, USE IT. It makes getting your tickets a breeze. We just purchase our tickets online, send it to Passbook on our iPhone, and have them scan it. Boo-​yeah!, you’re done. Those precious moments not spent at the box make a difference when your competing for the best seat in the house.
The lobby is real nice, big and open is perfect! Having a big lobby gives movie-​goers shelter from the elements and a place to meet up with any party members running behind. I dislike theaters with small lobbies because there is too much traffic, no place to hang, and if you are seeing a midnight release of a film then you are most likely going to be waiting in line outside.
The concession stand was pretty awesome in my opinion and I’ll tell you why. Where I worked before, you had one line and about 8 registers open. Behind the counter the cashier would collect your entire order. The disadvantage to this is can be customers who do not yet know what they want, or they are ordering for a large party. When you are a single cashier and are collecting an order for 8+ there is room for error, miscommunication, or even mistake on part of customer. That’s usually 6 sodas, 2 mixed flavor ICEEs, a couple boxes of candy, nachos with no cheese (wha?), and couple bags of popcorn, and a hot doggie. Not saying it’s hard to do, just illustrating the unnecessary time involved. More trouble arises when they have to call their significant other who is saving seats for the kiddos to find out what they want. So you end up getting an order that is translated several times before being completed. This causes delays for the cashier, the customer, and all those still in line. So that aside, take this location’s concession stand. It’s pretty much all self serve, you have someone doing popcorn and someone doing register work. You get to do a little bit of cruise shopping at your own leisure and unless you forgot something, you ALWAYS end up getting what you want. The cashier then sees what you have, presses one of those combo buttons, and before you know it your own your way. This may be seem unimportant to alot of people, but trust me, this is the way to do it.
I haven’t been to the bathrooms at this place, so nothing to report on here. But in my opinion, you can see how well an establishment is doing just by looking at the restrooms. If they are clean then they are trying to get things done. If they are dirty, they either don’t consider cleanliness a priority (not good) or they got bigger problems to take care of.
Finally, the auditorium! Not a bad arrangement for seating, alot of rows, pretty good handicapped /​disabled seating. I don’t know what this place uses for sound but it sounded pretty good to me, no crackling or a busted sub. Alot of theaters use 5.1, meaning it has 5 speakers and 1 subwoofer. This theater should consider using something like Dolby Atmos for sound, that has 63 speakers, and 3 subs! Think of your favorite movie, now think about how awesome it would have been to hear every footstep, the breaking of each branch, the drop of every shell casing, or even Maverick and Goose tearing up those MiGs with their F-​14A Tomcats? Seriously, if anybody who was any sway at this theater is reading this, MAKE IT HAPPEN. True 3D sound is just as important as picture! It’s all about the immersion.
Lets talk about the seats, and my chief complaint. They just were not comfortable! You really shouldn’t be able to feel the flat backing of the seat through the padding. Those seats need replacing. ‘Nuff said.
Man, my first reviews of the day are always the longest.

Nice crisp screens, great price ($ 5.50 for a 5:40 showing), and the employees were friendly and helpful. Clean bathrooms. Comfy seats which recline!

We moved from Ft Worth to Corpus in July, and we have been to this theater several times. It is better than the Cinemark in N Ft Worth. Always clean, friendly staff. My questions have always been answered with a smile.
One of my pet peeves at theaters is sound, and I have been pleased with this location.
Of course, prices for food and drink are on par with other theaters; too much. But that is just everywhere.

In my experience, this is most definitely the cleanest theater in Corpus Christi.

This place is awesome; they have a wide variety of foods and snacks. Their chairs, oh man the chairs are really comfortable which is great because if the movie your girlfriend took you to see, you can easily knock out on these badass chairs.

I’ve been going to Century theaters in Vegas for a long time. This location is dirty and needs renovation. The seats and screen are the same, but the bathrooms are gross, floors are sticky and they don’t have kettle corn. There are few theaters in Corpus so this location gets away with a lot because of no competition. I wish there was a Rave or Regal!
