We Had a great time at a Bengies double feature! There are concessions, clean bathrooms and plenty of parking. Bring your, blankets, and lawn chairs on a nice night to sit outdoors, blankets or paper bags and tape to cover your lights if you have a newer model vehicle, and a portable radio (for movie audio) if you're worried about your car battery. But don't worry they have batteries and heaters you can rent and they also provide jump-starts after the movie if you do end up draining your battery!

I am writing to formally express my concern regarding the way I was treated during a recent visit to your theater. I had traveled a long distance and arrived earlier in the day prior to my scheduled show, which was the Michael Jackson and Ray Charles double feature later that evening. Upon arrival, I needed to use the restroom. I noticed the rope was open and drove in, hoping to find someone I could speak with for assistance. The young man I encountered initially greeted me politely, but his demeanor quickly changed. He became rude and spoke to me in a disrespectful manner, stating that I should not have been there. I explained that I had tickets for later that evening, but he responded by saying, “There’s a sign at the front, but no one pays them any attention—don’t you read?” While I understand there may have been signage, my focus at that moment was simply finding assistance due to an urgent need to use the restroom. I calmly expressed that he did not need to speak to me in that manner and informed him that I would be leaving. As I was exiting, I accidentally went the wrong direction. Instead of calmly guiding me, he yelled, “Go that way now before I get you for trespassing.” I immediately explained that I was unsure of the correct direction and was trying to correct my mistake. What was most concerning was that as I was backing up to leave, he took out his personal phone and photographed my license plate. This felt unnecessary, intimidating, and completely inappropriate, especially given that I had already stated I was leaving. To add context, after leaving your property, I went to the McDonald’s next door to use the restroom, and I observed another vehicle make the same mistake by entering through the gate. This suggests that the setup may be confusing and not clearly guided. I do not appreciate being yelled at or treated as though I was a threat. I was simply trying to use the restroom and return later to enjoy a movie I had already purchased tickets for. I respectfully ask that this situation be reviewed and addressed. Customers should be treated with courtesy, respect, and professionalism at all times. Thank you for your time and attention. I look forward to your response.

I will forever love Bengie’s! I've been going there since I was a kid. Now that I'm older, I take my own kids there, and they absolutely love it. It's so nostalgic, and you can't beat the price for watching two movies at once. The last time I went to see the Super Mario movie, it was pretty packed, and the concession line was very long, but other than that, you can’t really complain. They had some cool things going on that night, like props you could take pictures with. They also had a coin scavenger hunt, and they called out tickets during intermission and the matching ones got to play a game on the Nintendo Switch on the big screen they had hooked up, but overall, I would gladly drive the 50 minutes any day to go to Bengie’s. 🤩

Great family night under the stars! ❤️ We finally made it to Bengies for a Friday night showing of the Mario movie, and it was a hit! Never been, and I was really impressed—especially by how clean everything was. Even with the huge crowds, the bathrooms were spotless, which is a major plus when you have kids. Very strict house rules but business is business and I understand. The only small downside is that the playground equipment is definitely showing its age and could use an upgrade. If there’s ever a community fund or donation drive to help refresh the play area, I’d love to support it! We had a blast and will definitely be back this summer.
