AMC Mall of the Americas 14

Closed, it’s going to be a Costco, but that’s way better this place was rubbed down. It’s a shame because I went on the last day before Xmas eve and the staff showed it was the last day. The staff didn’t care they let people just walk in no payment. Awesome ! Lol

This is most likely the worst movie theater I’ve ever been to in my life.
For starters, the mall that this theater makes you feel like you’ve been transported to 1985. Very outdated and many of the stores are closed up. Plus, it could definitely use some cleaning.
The theater was fairly busy so I assumed it would be at least a bit better than the mall area. Boy was I wrong. The theater my guy and I were in smelled like mildew and mold. The doorway even had a hint of a urine smell. We chose to ignore it and went to find seats. The theater our movie was in definitely had not been cleaned from the movie previous to ours. Trash was all over the floor and there were many empty cups hanging out in various cup holders. While we were watching the previews, there was a really weird sound coming from the projector. Luckily, that went away during the movie.
The ticket prices are not as low as everyone let’s on about. The free parking was nice, but I’d rather pay for parking and go to a cleaner theater. Definitely will not be back.

This place is clearly old with outdated décor and video games. The entire place needs to be bleached and all the carpets steamed cleaned because the AMC theater smells of mold, stale air and urine. Do not waste your time visiting this place. Not to mention the seats are not the best and the armrest need to be padded. I cannot believe local people actually come here.
Tourist from Ohio.

Even though this place is not the newest or most updated movie theatre, it’s still a really nice place to go. I always prefer coming to this theatre on the weekdays to watch movies because it’s less crowded, there’s not a lot of kids around.
I love that the regular movie tickets are only $ 5 during the weekdays (non holidays) before 5:55pm. The theatre does not have big selection of movies, but they always have good selections available in English and Spanish. The theaters are available in different sizes, some are bigger, some are smaller. Parking is free and there’s stores in the mall to shop at if you are waiting for a movie to start.

I’ve been going to this mall since I was in elementary school, a time when Dolphin and Sunset Place weren’t yet on the map and Mall of Americas was actually a happening place in town.
Unfortunately, the mall’s best days are well behind it, and this theater is no exception. It feels outdated, almost as if it were still trapped in the 1990s.
On the plus side, as another poster stated, there’s ample parking here, and you hardly get any lines.
My wife and I stopped coming here in 2008 and have been loyal patrons of Sunset Place, which we find to be far more inviting, ever since.
I think this place is a good choice if you ever want to catch a big Blockbuster minus the long lines and crowded theaters.

Horrible!!! Every time I come here is always the same thing. Time to update power source so no more power failures to occur. Could not finish American Sniper had to leave it half way after 4 power failures. Do not come here not worth it! Has one star as I can not give it none

Is the best option if you don’t want to spend so much money in a movie. Have very good prices and nice movies.

Decent theater if you just want to see a movie (without stadium seating) for a reasonable price.
No complaints about the sound, the staff, the line etc. Just a basic theater to see a movie.

Terrible!!! The placed smelled horribly. The crowd for this movie were loud and obnoxious. When people complained (and many did) the manager did nothing to resolve the issue. We will not be back to this location, ever.

Although this is not the newest or most updated movie theater it has its advantages over other movie theaters:
— free parking
— lower ticket prices
— no ticket or food lines (most of the time)
— few people in the theater
— close to home (mine, at least)
Granted, this is not the movie theater for a special date but is ok in general.

I took my daughter to see Dolphin Tale 2. The staff was friendly but some of the patrons were rude, loud, and inconsiderate. There was an older lady that did not understand a word of English. She kept asking her friend questions in Spanish. She was so loud and annoying! I was surprised that there were no ushers available. With several «Shhs and Callate’s» the lady would not quit. Then there were the thoughtful Moms that decided it was a great idea to bring a baby. Yes, just what I needed, more disruption and noise! After the movie, we went to the restroom. There were toilets overflowing and dirty stalls. My daughter and I could not have run out of there any faster! Definitely not returning here any time soon! Next time, I will spend a little more money for a better atmosphere.

Wow I havent been there for years and it was pretty nice. Good service. the theather was clean. We were impressed.

If you want theater seating, in-​theater dining and the latest digital everything (and you’re willing to pay up the @$$ for it) don’t go here.
If you just want to see a movie and not have to pay for pay $ 15 per ticket plus parking etc etc then by all means go.
Going to the movies has gotten too complicated. This is how it used to be.

Regal pricing, dollar theater experience. Not going back to this location!
No theater seating, instead you have the old row atyle.
Projector is likely not digital as there were several skips in scenes where they had to splice the film back together.

My daughter had been begging me to go see Maleficent for some time. Even though the movie had been out for about a month, it somehow managed to sell out at several theaters — something that surprised me and which we found out the hard way after making the line at the kiosk at The Falls (by the way, my sister was in line at the booth window and they never put the SOLD OUT sign by the Maleficent listing, shame on you, Regal at The Falls, for not updating people in real time and keeping them waiting in line uselessly!). After facing this disappointment, we tried checking Southland: no showing for another 2 hours, and Sunset Place had a showing in 10 minutes. With the parking garage issues and traffic, there was no way we could make it, but there was a showing in 20 minutes at this theater, and this looked promising, so we took our chances, rather than disappointing an overly excited kid. I’d drive to hell and back just to keep that smile on her face.
When we arrived, my sister remarked about the empty lot and how deserted the mall appeared to be. I told her this was like the neglected child of the South Florida malls, an 80s version of the Dolphin Mall that never got the makeover to compete with that nearby mall, which is sad because, unlike Dolphin Mall, there’s plenty of parking and the potential to make it into a sister mall for those unwilling to spend 30 minutes looking for a parking spot at Dolphin. We entered and noticed the peeling walls as we walked through a long hall to get to the movie theater’s front entrance and ticket counter. I did not mind so much, I care more about what is inside, as is the case with people I encounter.
Unlike other theaters that have a ticket booth and an information desk as two separate entities, this one only had one desk that took care of everything. I had bought my tickets on
to avoid the aforementioned sold-​out surprise, and found myself still having to make the blasted line just to show the lady that I already had tickets purchased online. When we arrived, it was 3 minutes after the movie’s showtime so I figured we’d miss the previews, big deal, but I did not anticipate having to also make the line! To make matters worse, she refused/​was unable to look up my reservation on the computer and made me pull up the email on my phone, but when I handed the phone to her, after looking at it for a few minutes, she pressed something that made the email disappear and said she had to help the line as I looked for the message. As I went to the side and panicked throughout the nightmare of recovering the email, which was no longer in my inbox nor in the trash folder, the line kept building up. I finally found the email… she had clicked on «spam» and sent it to my spam folder. How nice. Let me just say that it was disturbing that after seeing that email on my phone, she did not believe us and allow us in despite the fact the movie started, nor did she offer to try to find our reservation on the computer to help us, so in that aspect, the customer service was awful. I was forced to AGAIN wait for her to tend to us, and now the movie was 10 minutes in. She finally printed the tickets and we entered the theater… except there is no ticket taker, so we could have just walked in without showing anyone any tickets, phone screens or anything, and avoided this mess. She never apologized, by the way!
After dealing with these frustrations, we were told our movie was at the other side of the theater. Fine. We walked over there to buy concessions but the concession stand on that side of the theater was closed. At 6 p.m. Why??? So, we had to make our way back to the ticket area where the other concession stand was, and finally get our snacks. As others mentioned, the theaters do not have stadium seating, but this was not an issue for me. What WAS an issue was the inconsiderate woman, whose phone screen was on for the entire duration of the film, and no ushers ever came by to remove her or tell her to turn off her phone. I must say, this is the only theater I have been to where no usher ever enters to do rounds. Do they even have employees other than the sole woman selling tickets and the two girls behind the concession stand? As if the glare from the woman’s cellphone was not bad enough, the sound system in the theater was even worse, muffled, as if the movie were 40 years old (which it is not, as you know). The only positives were the amount of remaining seats, the ease in parking and that unlike the AMC Coral Ridge theater, I did not detect the smell of mildew and mold, despite the theater’s age. As we left and noted this place needed a renovation, I sadly had to agree. I was trying hard to find the beauty in this place, the same way a man might try to overlook a woman’s substandard outward appearance because she has a kind heart, but unfortunately, even the «insides» of the theater, in the form of the customer service, left a lot to be desired.

OMG this place is soooo gross. It is pouting rain so decided to catch a movie with hubby at the nearest theatre. When we went into the auditorium the light were on because they were mopping up a mess. Unfortunately, with the lights on you could se how horrible and run down the place is. And don’t get me started on the smell — ugh! AMC really needs to do this place over — only then would I consider ever returning.

Dirty, dirty, dirty! Still can’t believe this is belong to amc chain. Popcorn, snack package paper, sofa drink cups everywhere, it is hard to find a comfortable and clean seat to sit down and watch the movie. Don’t coming if you won’t want to waste your money. And by the way, here only have normal movie, no 3D, no IMAX. $ 10.25 for every movie, but it still not worth that price since here is a such terrible environment.

My brother said «You want to go to a place that’s jumping, go to Dolphin Mall. You want to take someone on a nice quiet date or isolated stroll, go to Mall of the Americas». I don’t know what’s happened over the years, but its kind of like this place does not exist to South Floridians anymore, which is PERFECT.
There’s ample parking, no one to argue with, and best of all: NO LINES.
This theater is tucked away in the back of the mall in a quiet little corner. It still features an arcade section, and really old AMC references. Some call it archaic, but it makes me feel nostalgic. I hope they don’t update the entrance anytime soon.
The seating is spacious, and comfortable. I believe they did a little remodeling in the theaters. My only complaint would be that the audio is sub-​par. This theater is preferable, regardless.

Been coming here since the jump. Ya’ll know whats up with this place. Theater hopping is the norm, and they actually put up some good movies with the 14 screens that they have.
Inconspicuous enough to bring that weird date, hidden enough to come here and knock out 2 or 3 movies that everyone else has seen and you lag behind in conversation because you haven’t.
Hey, it’s all good. Watch a movie (or three) here, sit next to the other old ladies who played hookie from their exercise hour at leon medical center, and then go get a bite at Off The Grille… Sin pena!

I went to AMC Mall of the Americas 14 to see Skyfall (for a second time) with my family on Thanksgiving Day. Simply put, this theater is old and in serious need of a renovation or upgrade.
Going to this AMC is like going to see a movie in the 90s. From the box office to the arcade to the restrooms to the concessions to the theaters themselves, this place feels outdated from floor to ceiling.
Theater seating is traditional, meaning no stadium seating here. It’s old school. If someone tall sits in front of you or they sit up straight, part of your view of the screen is going to be blocked. No cupholders in the seats either.
On our row, two of the seats were broken. A sheet of white cloth was strewn over these two seats by the staff to let theater patrons know those seats were out of order. At first, by the looks of things, I thought someone was saving those seats, but then I noticed the broken seat cushions lying on the floor.
Not surprisingly, the seats we sat in were rather worn and not the most comfortable.
Visually, the film quality was okay, but the sound was poor. Case-​in-​point, this was my second viewing of Skyfall and there were many lines spoken that were hard to make out in the mostly empty showing here last week. I had no problems hearing any lines spoken in my first viewing of the movie at a Regal theater in Atlanta.
Finally, sounds from movies from adjacent theaters really reverberated into our theater. They need better soundproofing here.
Service was good.
Overall, I give AMC Mall of the Americas 14 1.5 stars rounded up to 2.
