AMC Tamiami 18

Very bad experience with this movie theatre. We bought tickets around 7 to see Central Intelligence at 10:20 and we couldn’t go in after waiting because it was already filled up. They are overselling tickets and super rude when we approached them. Totally a bad experience and a night out with the family went to waste.

Best theatre ever since the new renovations they are the seats recline and the tickets for any movie even the new releases is just $ 8 I went to see Alice through the looking Glass. The cheapest movie theatre around.

AMAZING AFTER REMODELING! I swear this place has completely outdone themselves. The seats are great and the customer service is great too! The workers actually smile, are attentive and keep up conversations with you about movies. Ticket prices are spectacular as well, especially on Sunday’s before noon. In 2 weeks I have gone to 3 movies and I have not left disappointed once. I actually prefer this theater now rather than going to cinebistro. You can grab a quick bite to eat at a nearby restaurant then go to the movies to sit down and relax in a nice recliner chair. Definitely my new go to movie theater.

OK although still being remodeled this place has become amazing. When it was Regal it had become a dump to which I was afraid to come cause it was so gross. Now the seats are reclining and so comfortable. It’s clean, spacious and smells way better. Ticket prices for this Sunday morning is $ 4.81. Price can’t be beat and watching Angry Birds. Hopefully the teenagers won’t mess it up because this has become my favorite movie theater.

Third time to this newly the hated theater and already the seats we got don’t work. Complained to customer service and they said they couldn’t do anything. Theatre is full and no other seats available. If this keeps up we’ll soon have anothe Palace 18 on our hands. So disappointed, don’t know that I’ll revisit.

Very affordable and the renovations are awesome. I’ve been coming here for years and I’m super impressed on the upgrades AMC has made

We went to this place couple of times and it is not AMC theater standard. The prices are reasonable compared to AMC sunset and other AMC near by. The restrooms need major upgrade or fixes so does the seats.

So I heard about half a year back that the disgusting, horrible service, out of date Regal Palace 18 sold to AMC. I really don’t like Regal as a company, for there political beliefs that they happen to let everyone know about, so I would drive from Kendall to Dolphin Mall for Cobbs. Now that AMC has partially opened up for business and has almost finished renovations, I just
have to mention one statement «MOST COMFORTABLE SEATS, EVER!» I have been to more than 50 different movie theaters from all parts of the United States. I’m so happy this theater is so close to Kendall. The seats are Electric and fully reclinable! It is an electric recliner with leg support. I was able lay down in the theater and watch the Jungle Book with the fam. I had to electrically, of course, raise the backrest to a more upright position because I was falling asleep. The service was great, everyone was nice, as opposed to Regal. Everything looks new, I just fear that those low quality, selfish individuals that live in Miami will ruin the seats. AMC, if you haven’t already done so, please carve out a budget to maintain these seats from those folks. Don’t let it turn into a Palace 18. I need those seats in my life for a long time! Yeah the movies screen and audio was good too, what about those seats though? Go check out those seats, and if your one of those aforementioned individuals, PLEASE DON’T RUIN THEM!

The staff keeps saying that renovations are coming… but I guess the AMC leadership/​owners are just lying to their staff to tell the clientele that «renovations are coming»!! I recently went there and I walked out when the film stopped playing about 15 minutes into the movie. Until AMC (a very reputable company) gets their act together and cleans up this place and has a grand opening… it will always be the old Palace 18 for me and my family… which we stopped going to it a couple of years back. It smells old, the seats need renovating, the screens, the. What is AMC thinking, that we are stupid ignorant and just willing to put up with this crap just to save a few bucks???

Palace 18 is gone and though the last several years they were I play they weren’t that great the new owners have failed to do much with the location. No updates or renovations have been done and their are theaters with broken chairs. The popcorn smells funky and they don’t have much food selection available. They don’t offer great prices for field trips for schools anymore either. Hoping they update soon. For the same price I’d rather go to dolphin cinemas or regal on 88.

This place used to be Palace 18 a couple years ago. I don’t know when it switched to the new name but with it came quite a few changes too. I used to come here as a kid and before I left to the military. You can only select from about 4 – 5 movies and the prices are pretty low compared to the other theaters in the area. I usually go to movies in the afternoons and as such I have not had a crowded theater. The seating is «stadium style» but the seats are a bit older. The bathrooms aren’t bad but not great. Concessions are as with other and have a decent selection of items. The screens look to be in good shape and the pictures are clear. Best part for me is that there are less people in the theaters with you. I could see how some people would not want to come here when you have other, bigger/​newer, theaters but this place has fond memories for me and has continued to give me the experience I desire when at the movies. Additionally, and a big plus, one of the best Chinese restaurants in Miami (IMHO) is right next door as well as a pizza place which is pretty good too. Hopefully this place does get a bit more renovations done because it is truly capable of good business as it was back in the day. Try it.

I come here cause it’s cheaper & close to my home. Don’t expect a clean atmosphere cause ur not going to get it. This place is quite old and has not been kept up. If u want to save a little cash then this place is great but if u rather spend the $$ then go somewhere else.

This might not be the best movie theater, but their customer service is off the charts, very hospitable staff and reasonable prices. Will be back over and over just for great customer sevice. I Heard They We’re Going To Do Alot of Improvement AND Renovation So Thumbs Up On That As well!

This place is the worse most nasty place I have ever been too! Use to come when it open years ago but I guess they don’t have a cleaning crew because the place is disgustingly dirty. If it wasn’t for free tickets I would never pay a penny to come here. This place is so dirty I feel like I can catch Ebola here. I definitely need a acid shower when I get home. dirty dirty dirty.

Run down movie theatre. Use to come here when I was younger. Still looks the same. Can’t beat the price before three PM. If you’re going to the first showing of the day ask them to make the popcorn fresh. The popcorn is from the night before.

This movie theater is great the staff is friendly and it’s clean the screens are a little smaller though but who cares I will come back

For a theater that is so antiquated and ridiculously empty (3 other people watching X-​Men) they really have horrible customer service and policies. My kids (school aged) don’t have ID’s because, hey! they’re kids. but yet were charged $ 10… $ 30 total to sit in a dingy, muggy, and dirty theater. no thanks. On the plus side, if you loathe crowds, or people in general– love dirty broken seats, and like having a manager give you attitude because you are confused as to why the only concession employee left the counter mid order, then this place is absolutely the best!
(If you have a baby and no sitter– this is the place for you)

Lack of employees. This cinema has potential but there was no one at the concession stand, we had to ask for someone. No one to collect the tickets and direct you to the correct location. We walked everywhere because we couldnt find where our movie was playing until we asked at the box window – since there was no one around. It turned out to be the one room that had no sign. On a good note, it was cheap, and literally empty except for us.

If you want to watch a movie and don’t spend too much money and/​or make lines, come to palace 18. No other theater in town can beat its price. Is true is pretty old, but hey good enough for me :)

For the price you can’t beat it. Never changes. Smells its age

Four stars because you can watch movies in peace and avoid the lines and the crowds. You can kiss, drink and no one will even notice.

This theater is about 15 years overdue for a renovation. You’ll think you’re in a 90’s flashback upon entering this place. This place is in a Hialeah shopping center west of FIU, smells funky and has an overabundance of crappy uncomfortable seats that leave coil imprints on your cheeks after sitting on them for a couple hours. I’m surprised this place is still around but I do see it caters to the non English speakers providing subtitled first run films so there is that.

Not the cheapest theater. Which kind of sucks considering the seats are 10 years late for an upgrade. There is a remedy for this though… show up earlier and matinée prices.
The projectors also need upgrading, but i’ll keep coming here with the parents because as of yet, this is one of the few theaters in the area that have spanish subtitles.

This isn’t your ordinary movie theatre, but it’s cheap so why not. I actually came to this theatre to watch the last Harry Potter and unlike other theatres that night Palace 18 was empty minus the few people that actually remembered that this movie theatre still exists. I use to come to this theatre all the time as a little girl before Kendall Regal or Cobb Theatre in Dolphin and I can tell you this place has completely changed; however, it’s a great place to come if your looking for cheap tickets and no lines.

I feel bad writing a negative review but maybe my experience was different from everyone else’s. I went last night to watch a movie with some friends and when I got to the ticket counter I was like «Awesome! It’s only $ 7 for a student ticket!» I go inside and there’s this slight smell of urine, kind of like a public bathroom. It’s okay though, because it was still cheap so I didn’t really care all THAT much. We go to find our theater (the label above the entrance was wrong) and grab some seats. The seats are really worn, some has holes and stains on them so that was kinda eeugh.
It was a 7:30pm movie and it was really empty (there was only 7 other people in the theater with us) which is pretty cool. The movie started like 5 –10 minutes late, we could see the guy on the projector fiddling around or something. When the sound comes on we notice this feedback buzzing on the speakers. It was low but loud enough so that it made itself noticeable during the silent parts of the movie. The picture was slightly off screen which really bothered me and the picture quality was kind of fuzzy. I guess the guy forgot to really focus well or something, I’m not quite sure.
I mean this place is kinda run down but I really wanted to like it because it’s such an awesome price, but… :(I couldn’t.

Palace 18 has turned into that old piece of gum that has lost its taste but you’re just too comfortable chewing.
This is no longer a Regal Theater and is now «Ocean» they say. I wonder if it has anything to do with Ocean Bank being in the same plaza.
Half of the movies are Spanish-​subtitled. The stubs look like they’re printed on computer paper. The seats are really worn. There’s a light stench in the air.
But you know what? It’s cheap, the concession stand prices are super reasonable, there’s tons of parking and there will hardly ever be a packed movie or kids to fight with to get a good seat.
Yes, I had to watch a movie and dodge the large white Spanish subtitles. But my seat was perfectly molded to my butt and I was able to arrive late and still sit front and center. Palace 18 is my old friend who is super dependable and sometimes has stinky breath. I love that guy.

I grew up going to this place; it’s fine by me! My go-​to place when I think Kendall 16 will be too crowded.

You know you’re in the «sowesera» (AKA South West) when they sell Café Bustello at the concession stand of a movie theatre!
This place has been around since 1995 – 1996? and does have stadium style theatres, but no rocking seats with the moveable arm rests. Unfortunately, it missed that trend as it opened about a year or two before the theatres at Sunset Place.
Personally, I LOVE this theatre, primarily because I have rarely encountered a huge line, or obnoxious tweens, and you can park behind the movie theatre (where the gas station and back end of the gym is) and always find awesome parking. This means you can arrive 1 minute before the movie starts and still get to watch the trailers!
Also, this place still has student, senior, and military discounts! Go Palace 18!
