AMC Classic Arbor Lakes 16

I decided to randomly read the reviews that there is for my old work place, and stumbled across some ridicoulous complaints. I do understand that the ticket prices are hight after 4 on weekends and holidays, but the thing is they only raised it one dollar from it's original 9 dollar ticket price before. Secondly, the lowered the weekday price and matinee prices on weekends to only 5 dollars anytime. (as long as it's not a holiday). Thirdly, if the prices bother you so badly but you still want to go to AMC, because it it a pretty amazing theater, then go to CostCo and get the golden passes that they sell there for 7.50 a piece. Those are good anytime for any move, new or old. Also ask your human resources at your work if they give out any golden or silver passes at your work. Those make it free, the silver however, you have to wait 2 weeks after the movie has been out to get it for free, but those silver tickets are cheaper. If you have an issue with the food prices, bring your own food in! Come on, we do not care as long as it doesn't have an aroma that will disturb the other guests in the theater(ex. pizza, chicken). Drinks? There's a vending machine on the corner of the arbor lakes mall not even 200ft from the front door of AMC! Stuff it down your pants. Otherwise, just get it there, I think it's the whole experience when you go to the theater to at least spring for the popcorn for your date. Anyway, if there's an issue within the theater contact an employee and we will give them a warning, if it continues, we will kick them out, no refund. If you want to get deals for spending your money on tickets or even on the tickets(also there's coupons in the GoldenC books good for full price movies)then get the AMC moviewatcher card, it's free and you get free popcorn, snacks, and even movies from using it when you buy your tickets. The website that you check for ACCURATE movie times is at the amc theatres web page. NOT ANYWHERE ELSE THEY ARE 3RD PARTY! Enjoy your movie! Pros: Good weekday and matinee pricing, and of course lovely staff more

Pricing policy is terrible! No senior discounts all weekend! We can go to the same movies for less money, and not much farther to drive, at Plymouth Mann or Willow Creek. We, too, have experienced rude teen-age audience behavior. more

My gf and I went here, to a movie today, Sunday, for a 430pm showing of a PG movie. The price irked me, as seen below. This is my first review-but I read the other reviews before I went to this theater. Pros: as seen above Cons: as seen above more

AMC Arbor Lakes used to be the theater I went to for shows. However, I now go to Mueller 18 in Rogers. Cons: better discount shows,parking, concessions at Rogers 18 more

This is in response to emelynkay who reviewed this theater. Pros: !!! Cons: !!! more

My experience w/ this theater has typically been pretty good. We did have an incident, last year that has led us (my boyfriend & I) to be very hesitant to go to this theater. Pros: usually a good selection, comfortable seating Cons: high ticket prices, high concession prices, attracts hoodlums that mace customers more

Last Friday night my husband and I planned in detail a rare date night away from home, stopping at Biaggi's beforehand and planning on a 10:25 (p.m.) Pirates of the Carribean show - one of the few remaining theaters around showing it. I had even called AMC and spoke with someone who verified that it indeed showed at that time, and although I could not purchase advance tickets, he assured me that not too many people would be attending that showing. After a lovely dinner, we arrive at the theater at 10:10 p.m. to see a sign posted that there were no more viewings that night! Upon confronting the ticketer, I informed him that I had even checked with a live person over the phone, and that I had double checked show times online. His snotty, matter-of-fact response: ""Oh, the online information is wrong."" Also that the ""no more viewings today"" sign wasn't recently posted - it had been a daily posting. Well, needless to say, we were extremely disappointed (and now I see the online information has been corrected). We weren't even offered an apology or consolation prize (as if it were my responsibility to predict the inconsistencies), just really snotty attitude. So! Double check WITH A MANAGER before driving an hour if you possibly can. Poor customer service. I'm sure the theater is great, but the experience we had really turned us off!!! more

This theater is by far the nicest theater I have been to in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. The seats are very comfortable and I like how you can lift the armrests and how the seats recline. The popcorn was very good and the staff was very helpful. I was surprised they had an upstairs with projection rooms and private VIP screening rooms. Even if you have to drive 10 or 15 minutes, it is still a great place to see a movie. Pros: Good concessions, staff helpful, free parking more

Great theator but the popcorn really sucks. I think the make way to much, therefore leaving only stale popcorn. Also, they use a very bland oil. more

Great theater -- great staff -- great location. What else can one say? It's a wonderful addition to Maple Grove. The seats recline. And you can flip up the arm rest to cuddle close to that special someone. Pros: Good parking more
