Regal Cinemas Thornton Place 14 & IMAX

Free parking, comfy seats, places to have dinner before or after.

Terrible experience tonight. Look, stuff happens, and I don’t fault the theater staff for that. I don’t know why the fire alarm started going off right as my movie started, but it probably wasn’t the staff’s fault.
That said, the staff is at fault for being very curt about it. Never an apology. A full 20 minutes of standing around in the parking lot before someone (the manager?) finally addressed the crowd of 100+ people. He just told us to line up across the street and they would give us passes.
So in exchange for my $ 12.64, I got a single pass. I asked if I could have a refund instead. «No refunds.» That’s a load of crap. A pass didn’t make me whole for the overpriced concessions or my wasted time. They could of at least given coupons for a popcorn with the passes, or some other attempt at an apology.
I worked in a manager position at a theater for several years. Our policy was to double pass people whenever the theater had to cancel a show and people had already bought tickets. Regal should consider doing the same.
But meanwhile, Regal still has my money while I have not seen my movie. Awesome.

I like this regal theatre, it’s large so lots to choose from. There are lots of cashiers so all lines move quickly.

The lady in the front is very attentive, she remembered me and my boyfriend we came. It’s also cool that the staff watch majority of the movies so they can give an honest opinion. They also give the occupancy so you can always choose a different movie or time. The theater is always clean, so are the bathrooms. The confessions are expensive as expected lol. Parking is a hassle if you want to be close but there’s always to parking lot for busses which is cool

Ticket booth lines could be more organized. Clean facility. Not recommended to go on Friday nights or weekends because parking is an absolute pain. Not to mention people are very very rude in the garage parking – stealing parking spaces and such. Be warned, parking sucks.

It’s, you know, a movie theater. Everyone knows what movie theaters are like, so I’ll comment on the stuff I liked about it.
It was clean, the people were friendly, the lines weren’t super long, and there was ample parking on a Saturday night. Oh! And the seats were comfy!

The rise of the machines is nigh. A self check-​out ticket kiosk spits out a series of square papers, one of which will grant me entry into the this cineplex. Rather than face another night alone with my swirling thoughts i took it upon myself to make the trip to the theater in a meager attempt to blunt my racing mind. I shuffle slowly towards the concessions and ask the high schooler behind the counter for a small pop corn. He looks back at me with despair in his eyes and asks if i would like to upgrade to medium for just one dollar. sure thing brother, how could anyone pass up such a bargain? I take my 9 dollar feedsack of corn to the screen showing «Sisters» and find a center seat in the row second from the back. A nice dark niche where i can discreetly pound this pint of jim beam in hopes of msking this movie bearable. A rising sensation of «i-​dont-​give-​a-​shit» creeps through my entire being as the film progresses. I couldn’t tell you much about the film and walked out towards the end just before any of the relational conflicts were resolved. I am not sure of the intended target audience for this film, but it was certainly not me. What was i expecting to find in this cineplex? bread and circus? Perhaps some twisted shard of the escapist american dream? Sometimes life takes you to the movies, but remember our time on this planet is precious and you can always choose to walk out.
A+ great theater, friendly staff. would movie again! maybe.

Regal is a great theater, depending on which place you go to, they are mostly clean and, unlike AMC you can bring in drinks and food in. Imagine that right? I’m sorry but AMC lost a costumer.

Will NEVER go here again. Neither should you, unless you don’t mind your movie being canceled hours before you show up.
Went with a girlfriend to see a movie. Get to the ticket counter… it’s canceled. HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF A THEATER CANCELING A MOVIE hours before it’s to show!!! Annoyed, but just left.
Try again here, the next night, same movie. Called an hour ahead, to make sure it wasn’t canceled. Spoke with 2 diff people. Told it would show. Show up, it’s canceled, AGAIN. Speak with the manager. Tells me, the reason they canceled it was because more people wanted to see another, more popular movie. What!!! Tries to appease us with free tix. Give the tickets back and leave.
Fast forward, 8 months. Give this theater another chance. Wait in line for 15 min, only to be told my movie was canceled. Ask to speak with the manager. No help. Then ask for the general manager. He says this doesn’t happen very often. I say, that’s funny! It’s happened to me 3 TIMES, in the last 10 months! (Shame on me for giving them so many chances) Tries to give me free tix. Tell him I don’t want free tix. He asks me, then what can he do for me. HOW ABOUT NOT CANCELING MOVIES HOURS BEFORE THEY SHOW, TO MAKE A QUICK BUCK??? Done. So done.

Super cool theater. Seats recline, the climate was perfect in the theater, the employees are helpful and my experience was good over all.
We waited in line with a bunch of insane movie goers to get in the theater. No ropes or anything to control the crowd. I’m talking full blown elbow throwing trample status. There was even a guy almost in tears complaining about being first in line. The employees didn’t even seem to notice they just walked by and kept saying everyone up against the wall. No one moved. Needless to say I wouldn’t go see a movie opening weekend here.
Free garage parking underneath the theater which is super convenient and there is an arcade if you show up early and get bored.

Free 3 hour garage parking that’s right underneath the theater with a variety of food options for before or after your movie, what else could you ask for? I appreciate that they check bags and backpacks before you enter. A little extra caution and safety is important.
It was amusing to ride so many escalators to get up to the 4^th floor for our movie I have to say — take the elevator if you’re in a rush.
Bathrooms and theater seemed pretty clean. The only thing I wasn’t a huge fan of was how the seats rock back and forth. A reclining option that locks would be better.

Theater food is always expensive so that is not my complaint. I do complain that $ 20 worth of snacks worth less than $ 5 was disgusting, dry, and stale. I didn’t want to get up and get a refill during Mission Impossible so I waited till my second film. It was even worst, and no excuse since 6pm is a peak time, so it should have definitely been fresh.
Their IMAX is surely lacking. Antman was a better audio and video experience in 2D for less. I regret going here because it was off a easy bus route. I will definitely spend my money elsewhere. I do NOT reccommend.
And lastly, it was filthy behind the concession stand. Yes, popcorn can easily fall over and be messy, but there is something called a broom.

Regal Cinema at Thornton place is a cinema experience where you won’t be disappointed. The location is pretty big. There are two floors of screens and snacks. Watching movies is always a good time when you have reclining seats, awesome buttered popcorn, and free parking (3 hours).
In case the theatre snacks aren’t enough for you there are many restaurants right outside that can satisfy all your cravings. It’s also right next to the mall if you need to eat other foods, or shop for anything else.
If you have time go on the weekday to avoid the crazy crowds.

I’ve always had a good movie-​going experience at this Regal branch. Rest assured that it is miles better than the Regal downtown, if you’ve ever experienced that.
This location has large, comfortable seats that recline, ample amounts of (free) parking, and enough screens to be showing whatever you’re interested in watching. I always choose to go here rather than take the bus downtown to watch a movie.

Pretty good place to see a movie. They generally show the first-​run mega-​stuff with plots along the lines of «Hot man and essentially helpless but nevertheless hot woman avoid exploding things,» but I can go for that from time to time. They do lots of 3-​D and IMAX movies but I have yet to see one where I thought that the extra expense was really worth it. Shrug.
Seats are really comfy, like REALLY comfy, and have nice high backs, and you can basically rest assured that your view won’t be blocked by the people in front of you. Screens are big and volume is set to «stun.»
Treats are, of course, unhealthy and expensive and the poor teenager working behind the counter is obliged to ask you to «upgrade» for just a dollar more or whatever. But after a «small» bag of popped corn and a cup of pop, I generally feel like I don’t ever want to eat again.
I went to see «Mad Max» there last week, and the movie itself started 20 minutes after the advertised time because of the number of ads and previews and such, all of which were themselves at ear-​splitting volumes. They could definitely stand to rein in all of the ads but I’d guess that pays a fair amount of bills. That’s the world we live in… if you want to watch a blockbuster about an exploding zombie dystopian future, you have to first endure a bunch of ads about our exploding zombie consumerist present, and then watch long previews for what are sure to be AWFUL movies made by the same studio that made the one you’re about to watch.
One last thing: this is the world’s tallest cinema. Odds are good that your movie is on the top floor. Do yourself a favor and take the stairs… we are a chubby people and if we lose some of those pounds, the zombies will have less to eat, and that’s a good thing. Plus, it’s not like you’re going to be late for your movie because the previews are most likely still rolling…

As far as Regals go, this one is quite nice. It has three levels and concessions are always open on every level — the same cannot be said about their escalators! Parking is easy here either below Thornton Place or across the way by JCPenney’s at Northgate. If you park over there, you’ll just need to cross through to the left of Five Guys for access to the box office.
This is my go-​to theater and is usually not too busy, except in the summer months for those big summer blockbusters on weekends. Most other times there is no problem getting there 10 min before showtime to get a good seat. Regal reward card perks are also pretty great with free popcorn, drinks, and tickets for every $ 50 you spend (rotating in that order.) The downside is that you can only be credited a maximum of $ 20 per day towards rewards. No biggie.

Compared to downtown, this theater offers free parking for when we drive, or I can bus, or even walk. Crowded when you would expect, the off-​hours here are great.
The surrounding places to eat and nearby mall means it’s easy to feed a crew before or after your film. You can even split the kids to one film and grown-​ups to another.
Good for mainstream action but your really classy art films do not play here.

I like this theater, but man oh man, why is the movie I want to see always on the TOP floor?! Yes, there’s an escalator and stairs (and elevator for the handi-​capable) but it’s always the long trip up/​down.
All in all the place is clean, well maintained, friendly, and a great theater-​going experience. The seats are spacious, with armrests that go up/​down depending on the level of comfort you want, or closeness to your date you prefer. The sound system is clear and crisp and doesn’t get all crackly/​cheap Chevy speakers from 1970 on you when the action gets intense. We watch Mad Max: Fury Road and felt totally immersed in it.
Go. Enjoy. Repeat.

Seats are spacious and the theater is large. There are many floors and concession stands. Watched the Avengers here and the lines were well organized. This theater has long hallways that curve and are very functional for opening day movies.
Tickets these days are costly but I guess that’s just the way it goes.
Parking is available in a large lot downstairs, make sure you remember where you are parked as it is easy to forget and get lost.

Watching movies is like one of my favorite past times. And when it comes to watching movies I am kind of a snob in regard to which theaters I will go to. So for me a great movie theater has all of the following: comfy seats, great screen, killer sound system, a jam packed concession stand, and enough parking that it is easy to rush there and when you decided to see the movie last second without having to miss the start of the movie.
Regal can pretty much check the box next to all of my critetia. The theater has enough screens to where it is always playing the movies that you want to watch. The theater is new so it of course has stadium style seating and the seats are complete with arm rest that go up and down k case you are on a date. Parking is easy as can be and covered for those cold nights where you don’t want to be outside. And of course great screens and sound system for those action movie junkies like myself.
What I really love about this theater is that it is in a complex that has a bunch of restaurants attaché to it. So you can park in the parking garage and grab a bite to eat at one of the restaurants next door or if you are looking for something quick they are also located next to a. subwat and five guys burgers.
Secret insider tip: the theater is pretty empty during the week so invite a friend, bring a blanket and take in a late night weekday movie.
