I felt ATTACKED by the sound. The bass frequencies are one thing but the high pitched sounds are piercing. I held my ears thinking I might acclimate, but it never happened. It nearly caused me a panic attack. Beware.

Big IMAX, decent theater, my brother and I were in town and wanted to see Star Trek...and there it was! Didn't expect to find it there, but nice that we were able to have the option.

I saw Avatar here with my now fiance. It was good visually, but very lacking in story. I'm a writer, so I found it difficult to like. I don't know why he couldn't have just hired a good screenwriter to make the story better, I mean they spent so much money on that movie anyway. We never see good moview... More

Probably best movie I've seen this year so this added to my enjoyment here. The theater is actually not that big and not sure if it's real IMAX, but I find the true IMAX are too big so this works for me. Also this was a Friday night and theater is like 1/3 full so plenty arm rest for me.... More

I MAX and 3D who can resist those two. Tickets a bit pricy about $15 per. The experience however was spectacular. The noise level could have a little less volume. However from the opening scene to the end of the movie you were submersed into the action drama, and suspense. The screed being so big your peripheral vision encompassed and... More

We didn't realize this theater was even here. Offers a great activity option when visiting AC. Theater was nice. Service was very welcoming. Movie was disappointing (GI Joe).

We watched Oz the Great and Powerful, and it was excellent! Quiet, clean theater just a few steps away from our room at the Trop. It was a great way to stay entertained!
