AMC Showplace Washington Square 12

My favorite AMC because it’s literally, the cheapest in town. This theater is always cheaper than any other AMC in Indy. For example, before 11, it’s $ 4.19 and on half price Tues, it’s $ 5. The other AMC’s are .50 to $ 1 more.

I took my boys to see Krampus. My oldest was so excited. Until the theatre started filling up with horrible kids who apparently had no place to go. We got through the previews, barely, and less than 15 minutes into the movie a whole swarm of jerk high schoolers overran the theatre. A guy pushed through my boys and me and then elbowed my jaw as he slumped in the chair next to me. After so much cursing, (N this and B that) I realized that we would not get a chance to watch the movie we came to see. It was so loud in there, it was like a party. We left– and I approached Stephanie, the manager, to get my money back. She seemed less than concerned-I’m sure it has to do with needing occupants to sustain business. but at what cost?
The only reason I give this theatre 1 star is that we have had enjoyable experiences in the past, but I guess those days are over. We will be heading to Greenwood for our next movie experience. So sad to see the east side slipping further and further into the abyss. Time to let it go.

I love the seating. If someone is sitting behind me, their unable to extend their legs and rest their feet on chairs nearby. Restrooms were usually clean. Person at ticket counter was never rude.

This is an average AMC location. It offers the standard services of an AMC. The crowds are fairly minimal. There’s not much left of Washington Square, so it no longer draws the mall crowd. If you’re in the area trying to catch a show, it’s an acceptable spot.

I don’t have anything particularly positive to say about this theater or negative. If you can make it here before 5:00 on a weekday you’re in for a treat because you can see a movie for under $ 5. I refuse to shell money out for candy here but there’s a Kroger conveniently located just next door. The staff doesn’t seem to care that much so you can get it in without too much trouble.
The theater itself has always been decently clean in my experiences. Someone commented on the seats being small but I’m pretty sure they must be absurdly obese, because I find these seats to be very spacious.
My one negative is the clientele. You get a lot of parentless kids (read «lost boy» not «orphaned») who can be obnoxious. You also get parents who bring their toddlers and infants to movies at 10:00pm when no child that age has any right being out of bed, let alone in an R rated movie. That’s what you get for going to a theater on the east side though. In all fairness this has only been my experience about a third of the times that I’ve been here.
Other than that, the screen quality is good, the sound is good, the seats are comfortable and clean (and it’s stadium seating which is kind of a given in a city, but still worth noting), and the employees are all reasonably put together. This theater is solidly A-​OK.

This was my first and last time at this theater.. I was very unsatisfied witg the staff, cleanliness, and food. Seats in the theater are extremely dirty. The popcorn tasted nasty and the staff were rude to us. I wouldn’t recommend this to theater to anyone. If your going to see a movie, go to the one in castleton. Better experience for the price you pay.

I think the mgt staff tries its best to keep this theater clean but unfortunately the young clientele without any manners beats it up daily.
Best time to go? Week days before 5 pm to get $ 5 tickets. But beware the concessions are still very high — $ 20 for their 2 large drinks /​large popcorn combo. Huge huge profit and not even free refills anymore.
Having an AMC stubs card knocked a couple dollars off. But still — I’d be paying less than $ 4 at the Speedway down the street for same thing.

This isn’t a bad theatre option for the east side but it had quickly deteriorated over the last few years. It’s usually understaffed, not very clean (especially the sticky and worn down chairs you’re expected to sit in) but it still costs what you would pay at any other, perhaps nicer, AMC location. The popcorn is always fresh, I’ll give them that and if you go during the week it’s not very crowded.

I think someone was smoking a cigarette during the movie I saw. Also, the seats are smaller than airline seats.

Since they switched to AMC they did away with the free large Icee refills and that was one of the main reasons to go. The theater itself is cool and there are plenty of room between seats. Very comfortable and very enjoyable

This is better than what you expect at Washington Square. This theater is a few years old, but it has been maintained very well. Luckily, it was built by Kerasotes, so it has real popcorn machines making fresh popcorn even after being bought out by AMC. The prices are terrible on the snacks (and keep going up faster than inflation). The urinals are set up in a strange way that makes me feel very exposed — it’s like everyone who walks in is looking straight at your genitals. BUT, it’s clean, it’s not usually crowded, you can park close, there is always ample security, and you can get fresh popcorn! I’ll keep going until they get rid of the popcorn machines and go to bagged (I’m looking at you, Greenwood Park Mall theater).

A very nice theater. Everything is still basically new. A very large theater will many movies playing at once means lots of options for current Box Office movies.

Theater not very clean, concession prices are very high. I recently called mgr regarding concessions and was told «that is the way it is», and «I know they are high».
