Honestly it was the food prices that made me not like it. I felt like I got robbed. $8.00 for a bag of popcorn. $6.00 for a large pop. Oh and when I said it was a lot to my wife the lady at the counter rudely said she did not make the prices. Umm not sure when I accused her of that but totally not a good thing to say.

This is revised from 3 stars to 2 stars, and it is still generous and only gives props to having new releases and stadium seating available. Surround sound is good and they do offer the 3D on those films that have it available. However, many of the seats in prime seat locations are broken. Dear lord, FIX YOUR SEATS!!! Several screens have holes in them that have been there for years and have not been fixed. Concessions are waaaay overpriced... WAAAAAY... which is to say your cost for even a matinee show will rival that of a very fine dining experience. $18 for 2 large sodas and a large popcorn? Are you kidding me? You honestly can't tell me with all of the money that they bring in for some of these big ticket movies that they can't repair their seats and screens! Unless you really want the big screen experience, wait until it gets released on Redbox and order in some Pizza Carellos.

Sticky floor, popcorn & litter strewn about but at least cups & other food serving accessories had been picked up. Why civilized people expect others to pick up after them is beyond me. I'm visiting from Nebraska; we're spoiled by the large reclining seats that are so very comfortable but also provide personal space. Having said that, this theatre seating brought me back to a nostalgic earlier time in my youth; I smiled at my dejavu moment wondering if anyone else misses the drive-in movie out under the stars. Now THAT was personal space! The theatre employees were very courteous and polite, even asking if I had your rewards program. Overall, a pleasant experience. Thank you.

Love the memory foam seats with arm rests that can be raised. They don't interrogate you on what's in your purse like other theaters do and they closely monitor their showings for R rated movies, so no unattended children just running in and out. Overall a pricey night but worth it for the experience of surround sound.

Just had a baby and lost a lot of the weight. Finally felt confident enough to wear my skinny jeans. The unprofessional staff gathered around a table while movies where playing commented as I was walking away; she s just mad, because she s too fat and got a leg wggie. Then all burst out laughing. I don t even know why they thought I was mad or why it was okay to say that.

Love the stadium seating and great picture and sound. A little loud on some films, but not gonna dock them a star for that - "Arrival" and it's unique soundtrack was amazing to see and hear on their screen. Been here often, and no reason not to return.

Pro tip: get your popcorn and ask to have the butter 'layered'.

Very nice Theater, a huge improvement over the old theater downtown 20 + years ago. It is clean well decorated, fresh paint in the mens restroom, very clean restroom. Nice comfortable theater chairs. No o am not a employee or a owner. $7,00 for a Senior Admission. What a bargain.

One of the lowest quality theaters I've been to, they do not keep up on building maintenance so much so I wouldn't be surprised if the sealing had mold issues. As well they do not take suggestions given to them at all that would improve the quality of the theater at minimal cost, nor do they have their own quality improvements planned outside maybe some day if they can ever budget it building in the lot next door. Chances are they will continue to disrespect their staff and that will feed back on the customers, it could be a great place to hang out in town but when you don't care about the business you own/run/operate how can it be of respectable quality...? I should add, why indeed if you have a monopoly in the immediate vicinity...

I was disappointed today. A young girl spilled some of her drink (maybe half) in the empty lobby. She was extremely embarrassed, apologized repeatedly and clearly felt terrible. They charged her $2 to fill it back up because apparently the medium drink she paid $5.50 for was not refillable, only the large is. Not impressed foothills theater.

Decent movie theater. Its gotten a lot better over the years. The stadium seating they have now is nice and the updated seats are nice. For Gillette its pretty great. Since there is no other competition, you don t really have other options. Matinee prices are pretty good. Clean and staff was decent. I would recommend.
