8) Alarmed exits? why not let us exit the theater directly once the movie ends?
My girlfriend and I saw "It" in XD and it was pretty awesome. The sound was phenomenal.
5) "Showtime" apparently means "PreviewTime." Showtime -when the intro credits started- was exactly 20 minutes after the advertised "showtime" (I guess this is common in California).
6) Concessions are supposed to be high margin, I get that, but Cinemark takes that to excess. Everyone else seemed to sneak in outside food/drink (yes, we can hear you open those containers). I find that shady, but so is charging $5 for a flat sodapop. Enjoy being surrounded by shady people!
9) I'm sure you paid plenty for your sound system, but maybe try dialing the volume back a bit? My phone's db meter reached 112 during the previews (yes, I turned off the phone for the show)
1) It is the only cinema in town and acts like it
Pros: It has new movies
Cons:
7) Cleanliness is subpar (check the nasty soap dispenser). If you're the kind of person that carries around a portable black light, well let's just say bring a large beach towel for a movie seat liner. Popcorn was all over the floor - and this was when the theater was just opened after supposedly being "cleaned" (Staff marijuana smoke break seems more likely). DO NOT wear flip flops or you may find your footwear stuck to the floor a few steps behind you...
I think you really need to ask yourself: what are you willing to put up with to watch a brand new movie? Think long and hard... and then assume that Cinemark Tinseltown is going to put you through all of it. Me? I'll wait to catch the next one on netflix...
I come here all the time. One of the best places in town to kill time.
3) Seats are old, with limited legroom, seat bottoms that are narrower than on a budget airliner, arm rests fixed at a height more appropriate for small adolescents, and the arm rests have giant protruding cupholders to further limit leg positioning. While the seatback does recline (or rather rock back), its motion is independent of the seat bottom which feels awkward. Basically come prepared to sit in one position for 2 hours (apparently a few of the 14 theaters have newer/better chairs. I was not so lucky tonight).
Update: Added 1 star after being dragged back in to see IT, which was playing in one of the upgraded XD theaters. The seats in the XD are newer and have folding arm rests. Additionally, you can reserve specific seats so you don't have to get there early and sit 40 minutes before the actual showtime.
10) This is more about Chico than Tinseltown, but this is a college town and a family town. So don't expect a theater full of well-behaved adults.
4) Theater doors didn't open until 10 minutes before showtime
Great place to see movies. 14 screens, not too shabby. Has a little arcade as well. Concessions run slow, but that's how it goes at all movie theatres it seems.
2) Please stop stacking urinals next to each other with no splash guards or privacy dividers!!! If I walk out of a restroom with urine on my pants, I'd prefer it be mine instead of forehead-on-the-wall drunk guy's. Thanks.
Great service from employees, theater was clean, and I really enjoyed the movie. The reason I did not give it a 5 star was because this is the third time I have been here and the women's bathroom towards the back of the building always smells bad, is very dark, and half the stalls are out of service.
