| - The theatre is located near a mall entrance. There are lots of spaces - but parking near the theatre entrance can be tricky during actual mall hours.
Tip: if the lot's full - park past the theatre entrance closer to Forever 21 entrance- it's just a couple of more steps, and leaving the parking lot is much less hectic.
Also, like other people mentioned - if your movie lets out after mall hours - you're not going to be able to get to the subway/buses easily. They put up gates blocking mall access - so you can only leave from the theatre entrance - for TTC goers, that means walking all the way around the mall.
Buy your tickets below at the machine kiosks, or you can buy tickets from the counter - then head up on the escalators to the concession and theatres. There's a new froyo (diy - pay by weight) place -and a gourmet popcorn (kernels-esque) before heading up to the regular concessions.
They have a lounge that is licensed, never tried it and I rarely see anyone hanging around there.
concessions are standard - serves meal items like pizza, fries, chicken fingers, pulled meat of some sort alongside the regular concession items like popcorn, nachos, and hotdogs.
Theatre is relatively new -midsized in the amount of screens. Seats are still comfy, sound is good - nothing is runned down. Staff actually do a good job with the upkeep.
Good washroom placements - one at the back and one near the front where they take your ticket.
If you're going to see a popular film, get there a bit early, it gets busy and fills up quick.They show mostly the popular blockbusters - serves mostly the teen demographic.
The facilities of the theatre itself are fine. It's the patrons that frequent this theatre that brings down the experience. As the PSAs brings up - there are always an abundance of tommy texters, susy seat-kickers, and very inconsiderate movie theatre attendees that frequent this place - moreso than any other theatres in the area.
They have the giant screen right in front of the theatre that lists all the times, and if a movie is sold out or low on tickets. ALL theatres need to have this as the first thing at the entrance. This saves time and lessens the agony if your show is sold out on a Tuesday night or opening weekend.
