Regal Cinemas Westview 16 & IMAX

This is my first and last to time here. The price for an early showing was ten dollar and change. Sure makes me want to bring in my own food. Seats are worn and need to be replaced. The cheap vinyl is uncomfortable, and cracking. There is no give to the back of the seat. I have had better experiences and cheaper ticket costs at AMC /​Lowes and Carmike. I will never visit this location and would question going to any Regal branded theater.

This movie theatre needs to enter the 21^st century! It is time to get some decent seats and have assigned seating like the rest of the world. Nobody likes to sit in the first row! The sad part is that you are only making money because there isn’t another movie theatre in this area. The popcorn was terrible. It had no flavor and tasted like it was from last week.

Decent movie theater with a lot of movie selections and choices available. Stay away from the IMAX pricing. They charged me 28 $ bucks per ticket. I was shocked if was that expensive for a average movie theater at best. But if you get the regular screening you will enjoy it without complaints

Decent movie theater, lots of choices, convenient location on Frederick. Kids like the video games out front.

This is not my first time going to this theater, it is the only premier movie theater in town. Seats are older, but ok. Ticket prices have gotten a little out of hand. But what really got me was today. Went to see Star Wars and the movie cut out, critical moment, video feed is dead and audio still going. They finally got it cut off completely, Employee came in and apologized, said that the projector in this theater has been acting up all day. If they knew, why didn’t they fix it? They had a few attempts at fixing it, finally got it running and restarted from where it cut out. Theater gave out tickets to see it again.

The theater is old and out dated with crappy old creaky, cracked seats. They just raised the prices up another 25 cents to $ 13.25. Just 3 years ago it was $ 11.50. I’m done with this junk theater and constant price increases.
Digital IMAX is now $ 19.75, why would you pay that? It’s slightly louder with more bass and a slightly bigger screen, so what. 3D prices are also crazy at $ 17.50 when they were $ 15.50. Why would you pay that for crap 3D?

This is your average movie theater. Tickets and food are outrageously expensive. The seating is fairly comfortable and the theater is pretty clean. I don’t think the Imax is worth the cost, it is not as big as the imax screens at the Smithsonian.
There are definitely not any better theaters in Frederick and this place is just fine to see a movie.

The seats are about as comfortable as setting in a public bus. The Frederick location could use an upgrade to Dulles standards. …

Im not sure why so many people rated this theatre low. The employees are nice, alwasy smiling and eager to help. The food is good never had a issue with it and everything looks clean. We took our son and a few friends so I asked the cashier what options he suggested. He told me about the kids pack $ 5.49 they get popcorn, fruit snack and a drink. Its a great deal for kids under 10 yrs old. We watched the new Avengers Movie it was awesome. The movie wasnt loud the sound was just right. We did not see it in 3D, I perfer not to it makes me dizzy sometimes. We were in theatre #14 it was clean and the seats didnt look old or damaged. The theatre was a decent size. The lobby has video games and it also has seating. Overall this theatre doesnt look like it needs a remodel to me.

How can one enjoy a movie if they have to sit there with their fingers in their ears? I had to go out and ask for earplugs, but they had none. Looking at the other reviews, I’m not the only one.

Saw Jupiter Ascending, was a bit loud at times. Like ear piercing loud for no point and I’ve been to plenty of Imax theaters. Either way the place was nice.
The lines to get food and drinks was fast, they had about 6 registers open to move the line forward.

Well, I don’t spend much time going to the movies but I don’t think Regal is half bad.
We usually hit up an IMAX 3D movie twice a year or so. The ticket prices for those are hefty but not high enough to keep us away. I don’t think I could see a regular movie anyways since I have been spoiled with these. Also, I don’t want to forget to mention that the staff members at Regal are super polite.
Typically, I couldn’t care less about the food but we went right before lunch yesterday so decided to just eat there. Honestly, the prices were what I expected but for that much money, they could at least cook the food correctly. It’s burgers and cheese sticks. You don’t have to cook them to death. Obviously, the answer is to just eat before or try your hand at smuggling.
Other than that, I was completely satisfied with my movie experience. I’ve figured out the best seats in the theater which makes all the difference (and no I’m not going to tell you).

Nice movie cinema. The food was a trip. Check it out. The movie rooms are small but that is about it. The seats need work. The whole place can use a remodeling job because the seats look a mess.

Kind of an older theatre. After spending $ 60 for tickets I wish the venue was a little nicer

They had the volume so loud in the 300 sequel that my ears (and my teenage sons and my dad’s ears) hurt even with napkins for earplugs. I complained and was told it was set by corporate — in so many words to piss off. I’ve been a loyal movie goer for many decades and have NEVER had a film and previews be so loud I had to use earplugs. I am in pain now even having done so. I wish I had just left. Suffice it to say, I will not be going back there, again. They are irresponsible and unresponsive. Two thumbs waaaay down.

I went here in the summer of 2008. I’ve had the worst service from this theater, and I’m surprised that I still remember. The girl at the ticket booth (or box office) had an attitude and slid the ticket through the little slit after I paid for the ticket, and that was incident 1. Incident 2, I was at the concession stand ordering a tray of those mini pretzel nuggets with cheese on the side, and I swear on a stack of old newspapers I saw the guy preparing the snack and spat in the cheese while adding more cheese. I complained to the manager that he spat in my food, and the manager gave me my money back. Incident 3 was when the other people in the theater was making a whole bunch of noise and carrying on like a pack of hyenas from The Lion King!!! I was so disgusted that night. I vowed to never come here again.
The next time I went here was back in the summer of 2011, because my cousin from PG County came up to Frederick to visit me, and this is the nearest theater from my house, so we ended going here. I know I promised to never come here again, but the service wasn’t really bad this time around. I did not ordered any snacks from the concession stand, and the movie I saw was pretty good.
The next thing I hear is the murder of Ethan Saylor, a man with Down Syndrome in this exact theater. It was so sad that the police murdered him just because he refused to leave the theater just because the movie he saw was so good and he enjoyed himself. The employee and manager told him that he must purchase another ticket in order to watch the movie again, and then the rest was history. This young man was killed for no reason, and they did not care that he had a disability.
For this theater, I give this theater 1 Star (should be 0 stars). I would rather go to Montgomery County or Columbia to watch a movie, and besides the customer service at this theater is very poor and those teenagers who work here are very, very, very disgusting!!! These teenage bastards that live and work in Frederick County need to be fired unless they learn how to treat customers with respect!!!

Ethan Saylor, a young man with Down Syndrome, was murdered at this movie theatre by the security guards. His caregiver had gone to get her car and told him to stay put. He wanted to watch the movie again, but the manager told him he had to buy another ticket. When Ethan refused to move the manager called the security guards who were off duty police officers. His care giver came back and pleaded with everyone to calm down, not touch Ethan and wait for his mother who was 5 minutes away. Instead, the security guards threw him from his sit, hog tied him and suffocated him. His death was ruled a homicide, but the local police found no wrong doing of course! Now the Department of Justice is investigating! I suggest boycotting this Regal Cinemas and all Regal Cinemas nationwide! We have plenty of other choices for watching movies! I posted on the Regal Cinema Facebook page asking what steps they were taking to train employees so this doesn’t happen again. They deleted my comment and blocked me! Please google «Justice for Ethan petition» and demand answers! SHAME ON YOU, Regal Cinemas!

The only thing I remember about this theater is waiting in a ridiculously long line just to get a ticket, because they only had one person at the box office (while they have room for at least four).
Other than that, the experience was nothing extraordinary.

$ 11.50 seems a but pricey to me especially for such a small theater as the one I was in. I think this may have been only the 2^nd time I have spent more than $ 10 at a theater as I am from Columbus, OH and we have a number of «budget priced» theaters around.
The other thing that confused me was their Now Seating signs which did not have our theater as open yet so we walked around for ten minutes. We came back and our theater still had not lit up, so we decided to try to see if we could find seats anyway. The theater was ¾ full by then. If you have the signs then use them because they were using them for other movies. Oh well, the sound, screen, and seats were comfortable and I enjoyed the movie as we luckily found two empty seats in the middle.

Very clean theatre with reclining seats and big screens. Way overpriced concessions so bring your own!
