The staff is always friendly and helpful, the movies are always current, and the prices are the most affordable in the area. However, the theaters themselves are seriously outdated with stained (sometimes smelly) seats and sticky floors. I'd imagine if they made upgrades, you couldn't see a matinee with snacks for 2 for under $20 like you can now:)
Good ambiance and very good prices for tickets and food
It's a great and friendly theater to bring the entire family or friends and enjoy the friendliness. The staff or polite and ready to serve the people. Quite often I fall asleep to the joyful sound on the screen. Still in all the wife and I keep coming back.
Shows great first run current movies, inexpensive, great staff. Digital and 3D. Theater itself is run down and worn out... mostly empty except for opening weekends for popular movies. Locals can be pretty inconsiderate of other patrons during movies.
Facility is old fashioned, and falling apart. Ceilings in certain areas in caving in from water damage. Seat's need to be repadded, and scrapped of old food, and gum.
The place isn't bad for a small town but it is always dirty and half the seats are messed up. It would be nice if the owners actually with the care and maintenance of the place.
Prices are ok. Popcorn is good. Seats need updating, they are small and not much elbow room.
Serves it's purpose. If seats were redone, this would be a totally different experience. Prices are the best in area as far as tickets go. Like every theatre, the concession stand is over priced.
Would love more food options, but smaller theatre obviously won't have the choices of a larger venue.
Wonderful service, super clean , and great prices.
Nice for a night out to relax with the babe.
A nice place to catch a movie. Great concession stand food too!
It's nothing big but it's a nice little movie theater for where it's located.
I was just surprised that they don't take American Express credit cards.
Trashy seats, trashy ceilings, employees move slower than snails. Gotta be able to get customers into their seats faster. This place should be torn down and rebuilt.
This theater needs to be reported for health reasons. It smells and the whole theater needs a makeover. Seats are horrible, ceiling needs some replacement. This was years ago and probably in worse shape now. I rather travel out of town to see a movie.
It's inexpensive and reasonably priced but they need to get better seats...
Great prices, but like the building it's located, could use some TLC. Seats and lobby could use replacing
It needs to be graded espically the seats. The cushions are worn and might as well be sitting on the metal
The prices are ok but the seats are terrible. If the movies are longer than 90 minutes I'm heading out of town.
This place feels like out of a bygone era, and not in a cozy, nostalgic way. It needs serious renovation and their selection of films each week is very predictable, they hardly ever exhibit movies that aren't huge blockbusters. There really should be another movie theater in town to rival this one. It wouldn't be a difficult task to compete for business if you ask me.
This place is a CHEAP and perfect alternative than going to Corpus for a movie.
The only local cinema. Prices are good, concessions good, and clean. In case you don't know, you can purchase tickets at the concession. Usually the actual box office is closed, so your only choice is to purchase at the concession. Heads up, when you enter a theater, look up at the ceiling to make sure there is nothing hanging where you want to sit.
they need to reolace the seats! they were freaking horrible.
I really enjoy the convenience of the location. The biggest problem there is the seats really need to be replaced. Several broken seats and they are really dirty.
The cinema seats are filthy, unacceptable and just down right wrong to make people sit on that grossness! Yall are taking advantage of the Kingsvillians because your the only cinema around! Please clean, fix or change those horrible seats!
Business might get better and another thing, your popcorn is always stale and is of bad quality!
It's the truth and I wish it wasn't, would be nice to go watch a movie in my own town every once in a while!
It was a great experience and the movie was awesome very friendly people and great service I would like to give thanks to the movie people and the movie was awesome I seen Hobbs and Shaw lots of action better than the other ones it is a must-see movie :-)
In need of a renovation, but it still provides the common needs of a movie theater. To bad this is the only one in town
The matinee showing of Venom was less than $5 which was a pleasant surprise. The seats felt their age, but sound and sharpness of the video was great.
I enjoyed the matinee prices and the movie, I wasn't so happy with my seat it was needing some padding
I've had good and bad experiences here. The tickets are cheap, the theatre is old. There are deals on popcorn and drinks (which are good ) but I've been served stale popcorn before too... so it is what it is.
Awesome
I love going to the theater
Good movies, good prices, good service, terrible seats, they are old and broken. We go anyway and have a great time.
Saw Aladdin in 3D with my daughter..it's a good movie..
Very clean better than the one in alice tx... I'll give it a 5
Food and ticket prices are great, but seats are small and uncomfortable. Updates need to be done and soon to show customers that the theatre is listening to their clientel. Also need to do a bit more advertising to bring more people.
Really inexpensive, but desperately in need of remodeling & an update.
Took forever to be served and stood at an empty register for close to 6 minutes just waiting for someone to come out of the back. Seats were uncomfortable and the floors were dirty and sticky. Bathrooms were surprisingly clean.
Good place to go watch movies. Not too packed. Enjoyable.
My wife and i wanted to take in a movie...sooo...Rio 7 Cinemas was on our "try" list...and no regrets! The lobby, theatres and rest rooms are clean and well managed. The prices for movies, popcorn and soda will go easy on your wallet too...try them!!!
The seats are pretty small and it does get quite hot when the cinema is full, but otherwise an enjoyable experience.
They need to redo the seat they are so uncomfortable
Although the seats and theater are not in the best condition, it's still a great place to watch movies and enjoy snacks.
Needs renovation needs new seats everything else is fine
Not very clean. Cheap tickets but I wouldn't go back.
Place is very dirty and it smells the seats need to be washed and sanitized there horrible that place needs to be remodeled bad and seats replaced because there just filthy.
The projector in theater 1 was apparently down today and "just got fixed" before our showing of Deadpool 2. The screen was pulled and looked like it was acted my the Umpa Loompas from Willy Wonka. The workers behind the counter had absolutely no F's to give. With no other options for new movies in Kingsville, I guess we just have to take it, prison style.
Found hair in my popcorn the seats need to fixed and the roof has holes ~ the dog is watching
I wish I could leave a zero star review. Let me start by saying that when we bought tickets the popcorn that was under the counter looked DISGUSTING-I don t know if they even clean that thing out. We found #4 a little early to pick good seats and ended up just searching the place for any that weren t torn, lumpy, sticky, or too badly stained. After contemplating just leaving and asking for a refund we realized that there were wires sticking out of the walls (capped thank god) and a large piece of insulation just hanging from the roof. We stick it out and once the lights were out it wasn t too terrible-minus the fact that the theatre smells badly of old cigarettes and we may need shots after sitting there for almost 2 hours.
They do alright for a mid-size city theatre. The concessions and tickets affordable. The screens and seating are acceptable.
Value for money was really good, food and drinks both served here to a good standard, some of the seating wasn't the greatest but it was still good enough to enjoy a movie in. Overall a pleasant visit as always but just a few minor points where it could be improved.
They have a good amount of selection to choose. Prices are somewhat okay. They do have deals though so that a good thing. But if you have back problems or on the fluffy side you might be uncomfortable their seat are not that good. But still a good place to enjoy and watch a movie without heading to Corpus Christi.
Ya we do have a movie theater in kingsville, Just ok, try dollar cinema corpus, better and cheap.
I went to see san andreas not the inside of the theater. I was very comfortable and enjoyed my self.
If you plan to select a movie with a run-time longer than 1h:36m, Please bring your own seat pad as the seating is terrible. No worse than terrible...
Disgusting, uncomfortable, embarrassing, unbearable. There is one area in which the theater's seating benefits . The low ambient lighting denies customers the ability to see any rips and tears which expose the internal sweat stained pads. REALLY NEED TO INVEST IN NEW SEATS!
Picture quality matches Kingsville's cable service standard.
Sound is great... Even if its not the movie your watching.
Pricing/lobby - Best part of the experience. Enjoy the line because when you sit down.... you will dream of standing.
This place is great 10/10 if you live in kingsville
This theater needs a major make over. Seats are all torn, floor needs to be cleaned, screens and audio need to be updated. They need to stop re-using popcorn from the day before.
Cheap and best movies theater for international students
Staff was pleasant, 12 Strong was very good but there was a slightly unpleasant smell in cinema #7. Overall a good time.
Went to see captain marvel!! Loved the movie and the popcorn and slush I had hit the spot!! Love that they use coconut oil in the popcorn so if you dont want butter you are not getting any butter and the popcorn still tastes good!!!
Was my first time going to Rio 7 Cinemas it was very nice an not as costly as I figured it would have been.
