Review of O'neil Cinemas

I haven t been to a movie theater in 12 years or more, but I m confident this is one of the best theaters around, if not the entire state.

1. The chairs... they re like $1,000+ chairs that recline and have a swivel table. I hear they even have couch chairs. They also have couple chairs that are segregated from the others, offering more privacy and you can talk without bothering people. Every chair has ample room, and the rows are spaced far apart. You won t be squeezing by people to get to your seat or struggling to see over people.

2. There s a bar and you can bring your drinks to the theater.

3. There s a restaurant/bistro located in the theater as well if you want some fine dining while enjoying a movie.

4. The sound is amazing, even in the standard theaters. It s more like 360 sound rather than surround. When it was a rainy scene I could hear the rain above me. The floors are the only place sound doesn t come from.

5. The projection was amazing, I was not expecting it to look that good. Great 1080p image with vibrant colors.

6. Every part of the building was extremely clean and well maintained. I couldn t find a single light out.

The only thing I didn t like was the volume of the sound. Sometimes it s too quiet sometimes it s too loud, they need to level it out a little bit more. Don t get me wrong though it was still excellent but I m a perfectionist.

It s clear O Neil does not cut corners and every thought was about the customers experience, not about jamming as many cheap chairs into a room as possible to increase revenue or raise profit margins.
Just look at all the responses to reviews from the owner, another good sign that they care about the customers. Snacks and Drinks are expensive like you d assume, but the ticket prices are very fair. I might go buy a movie ticket just to nap in the chairs. (Just kidding but it would probably be worth it lol.)
