Cinema Under The Stars

Jenna Trainer 5 months ago

Saw the princess bride here last week and it was awesome! I normally don't like going to the movies because it's crowded and the seats are usually uncomfortable but this place was great. Even though its winter they keep it really warm with heaters too, I could have been in a t-shirt. I will definitely be going back!

$3 concessions is a better deal than you’ll find anywhere in San Diego for a movie. ESPECIALLY for a special experience under the stars. The people working here are friendly and helpful. We saw Young Frankenstein around Halloween and it was awesome. When we reserved our seat online, there were only a few options left to so we ended up in the very back but honestly it was great because we were elevated and not blocked by any of the chairs on the floor. Cozy chairs and complimentary blankets and pillows. They even showed a Looney Tunes cartoon before the movie which was fun. We had such a good time at this reasonably-priced cinema and will return soon!

I really want to give this place 5 stars. I went on Valentine’s Day and was so excited. We arrived about 15mins late due to difficulty finding parking. When we went in, we were greeted my an older gentleman who was very friendly and approachable. We then paid for our tickets in cash by a different employee who wasn’t very friendly and seemed like he was just trying to get us out of the way so he could leave for the night. We then wanted to buy some popcorn but were told that the machine was just turned off (was kind of disappointed because the person in front of us got some for free because the machine was turned off and I guess the popcorn wasn’t hot anymore). I feel like the concessions should be available throughout the movie since all the customers are there and then there would at least be some kind of attendant present. We were then shown to our seats which were really nice (the double zero gravity recliner). The blankets and pillows were cozy but one of the blankets were very smelly, almost like stinky feet and as if it hadn’t been washed, so we just used the other one. Lastly, there was some kind of cover over the roof so you couldn’t even see the stars! :( It was just black; a black solid roof to look up to. Disappointed I couldn’t actually experience the “under the stars” bit as I was really looking forward to it.

This venue should be called cinema in the backyard. Firstly, there were no stars. We were inside a tent. Secondly, I appreciate the set up but for $20 per ticket, I should have seen some Stars and we should have had better seating. We sat on some lawn chairs.

Be prepared to pay cash or Venmo. Blankets, pillows and comfy chairs= unbeatable movie experience. $3 bags of popcorn = even betyer movie experience. The aounds is sometimes not the reatest and if there is a party at the pizzeria next door, the noise muffles the sound comng from the speakers. Movie schedule is somewhat unpredictable, classics at times or newe releases, it depends, there is no pattern to it.
