Reclining chairs , moveable armrests with cupholders on them, stadium seating, and lots of leg room! Definitely use the ticket kiosk, though, and be aware that the popcorn is made that morning.

To correct a previous tip from a mayor: OMNIMAX is on a dome like a planetarium . Many museums (like Marbles in Raleigh) have full-size IMAX screens unlike the IMAX-lite here.

Buy tickets online via Fandango and avoid convenience fees if you are a AMC Stubs member

Jacklynn

Great cinema and awesome street art outside.

Michael Snipes

Pay the 20 bucks a month to see 3 movies , so worth it. Great place to see mainstream movies , decent food and great adult beverages too.

Mary Turner

Buy candy at Target before coming here. Carry a giant purse and bring a six pack of beer .

Cindy Gannotta

They pop fresh popcorn ONSITE in the back of the concesdion stand. All 3D glasses are washed through a dishwasher after every show.

Brenton Marcom

Best theater in Durham! Great leather reclining seats, great food selection, self serve drinks...it’s great!

Jeremiah Sain

All of the popcorn sold here is popped in house and then put into "giant bags" to move it from the popper in the back to the front of the concession stand.

I always park in the back because parking isn't as crazy and chaotic there as it is in most of South Point.

Mari Figueroa

Get the AMC stubs card if you come frequently. After every $100 you spend, you get $10 back

Mohamed Shama

Amazing crew

Kevin Poole

If caught seeing into an r rated movie you will be asked to leave. So see the movie you have tickets for.

Ian Clark

The large soda and large popcorn are NOT worth the price! Even though you get unlimited refills , how long do you really plan on being there!

James Reese

Just found out if you order good at the concession they'll bring it to your seat.

Damian Bayona

Free mouthwash in the bathrooms ! Great for smooching your date after eating all that popcorn .

Alicia Huh

Get the reward card. Every dollar spent is a point, earn movie tickets.

Will Harrison

Usually great but the picture/sound is occasionally messed up. Tell them and they'll fix it but they won't catch it otherwise!

Brandon Alexander

Such a lovely experience everytime

Liz Fortune

It would appear this theater DOES NOT pop its own popcorn . It is pre-popped and stored in giant plastic bags to be heated under lights by the time you order it.

Brian H

Sunday is the best day to go

This IMAX screen is not like the ones in museums or science centers. It is smaller. Still a nice sized screen. Just don't want you to be disappointed.

Edward Wando

My #1 movie theater to see my favorite movies !

Robert McKeever, Ph.D.

On the plus side, if you don't rely on popcorn for sustenance, there are plenty of places selling real food nearby

Fred Lybrand

Only 2 kiosks to pick up pre-purchased tickets; it can be quicker to buy in person.

Aman

Please for humanity's sake avoid cheese pizza !

Gladly hand over $4.50 for a bottle of water.

Mark Matthews

Is the frozen Coke machine ever working?

The cake is a lie.

Will Fuller

Come early enough for an IMAX movie and make sure to visit the bathroom to scrub off the pink-eye from the 3D glasses . ;-)
