| - I recently visited Century Square Luxury Cinemas with a group to see Captain America: Civil War on a Sunday afternoon. I purchased tickets online a few days in advance from their website, which is easy to use. There were no extra transaction fees (like there are on Fandango), and every seat is assigned, so our group of five did not have to arrive extremely early to get our seats together.
The theater has been completely revamped from the Maxi Saver days. There are now ten screens instead of 12, with new projectors, 7.2 surround sound, and incredible leather reclining seats. Aisles are spaced far enough apart that even if your seat is fully reclined, someone can walk past you without the need to move around. I found it to be a great hybrid of watching a movie at the theater versus watching a movie at home- you're able to spread out and enjoy great technology, without the hassle of squeezing into your seat when someone walks by, or having the feeling of being crowded. An added bonus was seeing only two previews before the movie started, and then actually going straight into the movie (without commercials, warnings, etc.). This was a nice change of pace from seeing a movie at AMC, where a movie starts 20 minutes after the scheduled showtime due to all of the nonsense.
The theater was bright, clean, and the staff was friendly. Concessions were a bit slow, but hopefully service there can speed up in the future as staff gains more experience. I will definitely be back.
