AMC Mercado 20 is one of the silicon valley's largest movie theaters. Built about 8 years ago it is the destination for nearly every high school student on the weekends. Parking is horrible and you can't find a free spot on the weekends.
That said, the theater is quite nice. There is stadium seating, 20 screens, and a well stocked concession stand. The food isn't cheap of course, but then again, what movie theater has cheap food?
Tickets are often sold out for popular films. Star wars 3, for example, had long waiting lines to get into the theater and no spare tickets. You often have to buy online on moviephone.com.
