| - Before I delve into this review, I would like to apologize to my friends working at Carmike 10. I love you guys, but it is my duty and right to review this establishment as honestly as I can.
What is it?:
Carmike 10 on Fort Couch Road is a movie theater. That's pretty much it, there's really no features that distinguish this movie theater from others. Well, aside from atrocious pricing and second-rate seating, but we'll get into that later. Carmike 10 parades their (new) Texas Instruments projectors which probably costed more than the place is worth. Maybe that's why the prices are so damn high. There's only so much money that can fit in one's wallet, y'know?
What's it like (short)?:
- Fun straw dispensers
- Good management and crew
- Good flicks
- Bad popcorn, icey drinks
- Very pricey
- Really long previews and ads
- No free popcorn refills
What's it like (long)?:
Upon first impression of the brick cube that is Carmike 10, you may notice the cramped inconvenient corridor in which everyone is forced in to for their tickets. When you get passed the ticket counter, you can get your popcorn and drink - if you so desire - from the sticky counters. Hey, at least they have straw dispensers that you flip down for a straw which if you do violently enough you can catch the straw in mid air and look totally awesome. I must admit, though, such a task isn't easy and I nearly missed Little Fockers. After getting a mortgage for the popcorn and drink, I passed the game room and up the stairs to hand my ticket to the usher. There are roughly 5 to 6 theaters down long hallways to your left and right.
The theaters have standard stadium seating with cup holders. Once you sit down, prepare yourself to be bombarded by 30 minutes of previews and ads. Yes, 30 whole minutes. I counted. That being said, hide your popcorn and drink from yourself unless you have good self-control because there are no free refills on popcorn. The seats are decently comfortable and will suffice for a 2 or 3 hour movie. You better enjoy it too because the tickets themselves cost 10 dollars each. You better pray you aren't trying to see a 3D movie because the prices for those are almost as much as the popcorn. A large popcorn and drink combined are $13.50. Did you like your money? Well now you don't because it's gone. The popcorn is like cardboard unless the concessionist pops it correctly and the drinks have a great deal of ice in them. Despite all these negative sides, however, they manage to show quality movies and the people who work there are a delight (no, I'm not just saying that). It's also relatively clean.
