Anacortes Cinemas

"Service was great for our John Wick 4 experience. But… this theatre needs to be gutted and renovated, big time. It is a dump and I couldn’t imagine owning the place, walking in each day, and having any sense of pride. Invest in the theatre and the customers will come in droves. It needs a overhaul, new name, and a grand re-opening to be successful. Also, would suggest working out alcohol service and possibly small plate food options. People have no incentive to come to a theatre in todays digital age for anything other than the experience. Invest in it and reap the rewards!"

"We watched Avatar 2 on Christmas. Staff was nice, prices were fair, popcorn was good and buttery (self dispenser- al gusto). Sound and screen were great, chairs were comfy, bathroom was big and clean. Maybe the theater floor could have been mopped between showings, and the drink holders don’t fit big drinks, but those were very small concerns as we had a great time. Come see a movie if you are in Anacortes at a nice local theater."

"I went on the 15th to watch Avatar. And it was a horrible experience I took my 84-year-old grandfather in. The sound was off the screen was can't off and then when I went out to get my grandfather more popcorn and seasoning was told it was expired she threw it out and said I don't even know why my workers put it out in the first place. From the moment the movie started I was thinking about the picture quality and the sound PLUS THE MOVIE SCREEN WAS CUTT OFF. This is where they are speaking Navi and we needed to read to know what going on. I must sadly say I do not plan on going back ever again. It felt disrespectful to watch the new Avatar way of the water film that took them 5 to 6 years to make. Most of the movie is WATER and it is computer generated. The process of creating CGI is long, challenging, and very difficult. This takes years to complete and if done correctly it is stunning and absolutely breathtaking. This film was made with a fantastic crew and director. I was excited to take my Popo to this film because he doesn't have the best memory. However, he remember the first film and wanted to see the new second one with the special effects. This was a Grandpa and granddaughter's day. The movie quality was horrible. My 84-year-old grandfather was "okay" with the experience however he even said it was run down and the screen was cut off. He is never one to complain. I enjoyed the time with my grandfather. I did not enjoy the time at the movie, unfortunately. I spent 42$. ( It's the Holiday season and I don't have much money) I was told my 84-year-old grandfather could not get a senior ticket and I had to pay full price. Now reading the comments some people are saying they received free refills. We did not get that type of experience. That is very disappointing to hear in a small town like Anacortes where the community is close."

"The movies are good and the theater rental option is very nice, but it was very dirty. Both times I've been, there was only one staff lady. She was very nice, but it was obvious that she needed help. Tonight, she had to call the other employee to come to work because he overslept and there was too many people for her to handle by herself. It sucks that such a wonderful historical building is going to waste."
