Review of Disney's El Capitan Theatre

I have been to this theater plenty of times and each time was miserable. The only good thing is there exhibits of costumes from the movies. If you get seats on the 1st floor the seats are pretty much level so if anyone sits in front of you. You have a guaranteed head blocking part of the screen. The last time I sat on the first floor to see Captain Marvel,the ushers let this kid with light up shoes constantly clank his shoes together and create a flashing distraction. Just recently I saw Avengers End Game with my mom and tried balcony seats to see if it gets better. The view was great of the screen. However I have never seen seats so tightly packed together and there was absolutely no leg room so if someone wants to get by to use the bathroom it is impossible. Also the railing from the balcony is kinda low and scary but that helps your view of the screen I guess. While we were on the balcony the floor was incredibly sticky and disgusting and throughout the whole movie a woman was talking to her boyfriend. Ushers did not do anything even when other movie goers were looking back and it's not like I can get out and notify anyone. Because it's so dark and one wrong slip and you can fall over the railing and die. I only go for the exhibit and I'm glad this wasn't my first time seeing End Game. Go to the Chinese Theater Imax or Arclight Done. Much better service and way less distraction.
