I have been an AMC/Harkins viewer since I was a kid. A friend at work, said who wants to go see the new X men movie tonight, I have free tickets. Yes, I do. Cool.
They were to a newer theater in Scottsdale. I pull up and remember this use to be the old united artist theater that was horrendous. We walk in and I immediately notice this isnt the same old UA. The interior is beautiful. The people were really nice and helpful as Ive never been to this type of theater.
The theater has a couple 21 plus theaters, where you can get food and alcoholic drinks sent right to your seats. We were not in one of those theaters so I cannot speak to those. We were a normal theater and the first thing I notice is the leather large seats. They were very comfortable, puts the AMC/Harkins brand to shame. They recline nicely too.
The movie started without previews too. I am not sure if this was because it was a first run movie, or because they had a promo for the showing.
I will be back and my search for a movie theater is over...
