The Rialto Theatre: what do users think?
Nancy Pritchard: The very best acoustics for live music.
Denise Rhodes: Wonderful place
Brian Robichaud: Home to multiple generations of Rocky Horror fans
Michael Blackwell: I went to Rialto Theater in Raleigh to see The Rocky Horror Picture Show; the midnight show - the last show as the Rialto is closing. It was a live show and The Rialto is a Raleigh landmark. I had never seen the live show. The line for admission was a mile long. The people I met in line were among the best and coolest people I've met since I moved into the area over 7 years ago. But the show sold out when I was in line. Someone was very generous and kind and was able to get me tickets. To me this theatre and those people embody the best Raleigh has to offer. It is something I don't want lost to growth and development or any other reason. I had the best time and one I won't forget. I had the time of my life.Whoever that kind and generous stranger was THANK YOU. It meant the world to me.
K Reid: Wonderful, whimsical place to see a movie. I hope it doesn’t stay closed too long while they transition to new ownership. One of the last great Raleigh landmarks—I hope it never changes.
Derrick C.: The manager Wes is just the best.Relaxing theater.Old tile bathrooms.

Cinemark Raleigh Grande: what do users think?
Santosh Kintali: Old theaters but good enough!Seats need replacement!
Jennifer Duvroux: Theater was HOT and dirty. Went to the movies on Monday night. Air conditioner worked when we first arrived, I was chilly. By the end of the movie, I was sweating because the air conditioner was not running T least the last 30 minutes of the movie. Maybe longer. The seats were dirty too, like there were never wiped down or sanitized. Horrible experience, will NOT be back.
Nicole Buckey: I came to see a movie here for the first time in over a year. I saw a mouse crawling into the theater my movie was in. After reading other reviews, apparently this has been an issue for a while. Cinemark, do better. I will not be coming back here.
Bryce Wilson: Just came out of Mission Impossible and enjoyed MOST of the experience. My only complaint was the 43 minutes of previews and ads. My showtime was listed as 3:20, but the movie didn't actually start until 4:03. That is WAY too much. Come on guys, do better.
Zachary Brian: Movie experience was good all the way up until I noticed a mouse several steps down. I decided to just keep watching and then noticed another mouse quickly scurry under my seat. I don’t know how this place has so many good reviews. They need a heath inspection. Very dirty, bathrooms are terrible.
Yes R: Spacious theaters, all the seats have a pretty good view of the screen. Some wear and tear but the seats are still very comfortable and recline. A great experience. Clean.
Vanessa Mc: The experience was awesome. Loved the seats and I watched 2 movies there
Erika Hernandez: Great, the food was delicious my family enjoyed the movie we feel like home
Vicky's Expedition: Ok experience
Victor & Margie Gibson: Clean theater
La'Shawnya Norman: Great atmosphere...hubby and I really enjoyed our date night...
Laura Reagan: Love the recliners. They need to work their popcorn. It didn't have enough butter or salt. It tasted nasty. Also they were out of coke of all drinks.
Kelly Collins: Love this theater!
Lantz Newman: Great movie theatre. Nice little swivel tables on each chair, large electronic reclining chairs. Fountain machines outside of the concession stands for easy refills. Large black barriers to block out others phones along with other distractions.
Bernie Young: Seats are all torn up and when we wiped them down the cloth was totally black. Pieces of the seat were coming off the seat as we sat here.Really needs to be updated!!!!
Monica Iravedra: No popcorn refill, but the rest is great and reasonably priced. No complaints here :)
Rachel Roy: My husband and I have been to a few movies here over the past few years. The seats really are bad and worn and the bathrooms could use some work but otherwise, it’s a pretty good place to go and see a movie.
dabeast 1087: Nice seats
KENDRICK MARTIN: Used to be the Best theater in Raleigh NC but now the seats are extremely worn... Needs to be refurbished
Rezester White: Seats needs replacing. Now come on people get rid of those ragged reclinersPlease on E level.
king shadow: Needs to be properly cleaned.

Regal North Hills: what do users think?
Will Fonvielle: This used to be the best Regal in the area, but sorely went downhill in recent years. I saw a movie the morning of July 4, and the image was framed too low. Bottom few feet of the movie were fully on the wall beneath the screen. I alerted a manager behind the concession stand, and he immediately went to (presumably) check. But nothing happened. The image never got reframed. They projected the entire movie partially off screen.On top of that, they never close the doors to the auditoriums. If it's anything other than a loud action film, you can clearly hear noise from the hallway and lobby.I emailed Regal to complain and never heard back. Clearly they don't care about presentation of the actual movie and are just there to sell concessions. To be clear, I don't care about superficial comforts at the movies. Leather recliners, dine-in menus, 4DX - all that stuff is fine, but unnecessary if you can't handle the basics of projecting a movie properly. With plenty of better theaters in the Triangle (Alamo, B&B Park West, Carolina Theatre in Durham) there's no need to waste money on a dump.
willgander: Had a good time. Theater was nice and clean.I had bought my tickets online, and went inside to take them to a ticket-taker but there wasn't one. No barrier to stop me from just going into the theater. It felt weird and I don't know if it was intentional. I feel like anyone could just walk in and watch a movie for free. (There was a cashier to buy tickets, and there was the concession stand folk, but no dedicated ticket-taker)
Jasmine Williams: I have been here so many times this is my go to movie theater. The reason why I rated at 3/5 stars is because it’s super dated/old and the only way to check tickets is usually at the concession stands, which the lines are always long. Definitely needs more staffing. The staff is always very sweet though!
Scott Simmons: Seats are looking pretty rough and the cup holders held a layer of dried Pepsi, but otherwise good.
Scot Jones: Our honest take on a place we have been several times:Service: everyone seems friendly and mostly accommodating. We like the people here!Concessions: typical, not badly priced, some things are in disrepair (like 3 out of the 4 butter-your-own popcorn stations were out of order when we were there).Theater: reclining seats at least in the theaters we have been in. In our opinion, at least after looking around Theater 7 last night, things are getting worn down. My wife's recliner didn't work, and you can see the recliner material starting to break down. It does not look like the theater I would expect in the North Hills area.Climate: very inconsistent. It was a hot night during our last movie and you could tell as the A/C was struggling to keep up, it was quite humid, too.Environment: I know people like to have fun but it seems like most times we watch movies here there are several groups of boisterous people talking and laughing during the movie. Whatever, if that's your thing, I have no problem with it, but for us personally we find it a bit distracting and takes away from the enjoyment.Parking/area: there is plenty of parking with a parking garage under the streets of North Hills, and plenty to eat and do before or after your movie.
David Bottjen: Quick entry, friendly check-in. Small but comfortable viewing room. Sound a bit loud for the room size.
J Fuller: I had a good time at the movie theaters. The seating was comfortable and the popcorn was fresh. The only downside I had was the hallways had a funny smell to them like the carpets needed cleaning.
one zhot: lot of space, amazing seating, their seat are reclinable, but everything is expensive
Pablo E Ramos Garcia: My wife and I watch Flash Movie, the experience was good, the reclining seat was comfortable.
Ace Platero: It was our first time visiting at this location and probably our last. The seats we had (H1-H3) were covered in popcorn and straw wrappers. The cup holders were drenched in spilled soda. Also, we did not realize that this row had a "wall" tall enough so my 7yr old daughter had a hard time seeing over. My seat(H3) felt like it was about to fall off at its most reclined position. Luckly, the movie itself salvaged the experience, but this will probably be the last time we will go here.
Steven Myer II: Love the movie times and the chairs but oh my Lord the service at the concession stand is some of the slowest I've ever seen.
May Lee: Doesn’t have the best selection of snacks. No slushy machine, didn’t have the snack pack. Chairs are old.
Isha Lyons: Service is okay but the theater need better cleaning in-between movies.
Don: Great time and experience with the family.
Erin Kenny: Reason for the poor review is entirely based on the video quality of the movie. I felt like I was watching the new Ariel on my parents' 2005 TV at home when 4K was but a dream. Everything else was fine (concessions, clean bathrooms, etc), but you'd expect a theater to present a film in the highest video quality available. Wish I'd waited and streamed the movie at home for this reason alone.
Marwah Mahate: This is the worst movie theatre I have ever been to. We booked tickets in the last row thinking we would get a good view of the full screen but there is a wall barrier that constructs almost a fifth of the screen! Literally had to get out of our seats to see the whole screen. They also had no slushies and only diet pepsi and mountain dew for drinks. Also the volume was sooo low it was really hard to hear the movie at points. Would probably have a better experience watching on my macbook at home.
Jean Kaiser: most filthy ladies bathroom I have ever encountered. Clearly no one is monitoring them.
Toni Taylor: We chose this theater because of its location. Lots of shops in the surrounding area. That is the ONLY good thing about this theater. Apparently, it's the dropff zone for parents who want to be kid free for a while because they're everywhere! The movie we saw was rated R and the theater was filled with kids who looked under the age of 17 and there wasn't an adult to be found. And of course, they we loud...laughing and talking throughout the entire movie. Also, the theater staff was run entirely by teenagers who didn't seem to know what they were doing (which made waiting in line that much longer). Once we got to the counter, they didn't even have half of the refreshments available, nor did they have butter for the popcorn. And to add insult to injury, the bathroom was completely out of tissue and needed cleaning. The entire experience was one of the worst movie going experiences I've ever had.
Luke: I don’t know who reads this, but this is regarding the staff. I took my kids to a pair of movies over the weekend and with your staff being shorthanded and overwhelmed they did a great job with customers. Customers who stand on the wrong line, tapping their finger nails, hands or a credit card on the counter to get service when it is their own fault they are standing in the wrong place. I listened to customers treat your staff rudely unnecessarily and they handled themselves well. I don’t know how people complain about popcorn being made all the time and it not being fresh, maybe customers exercising patients could go a long way. Overall the place was pretty well-kept and clean. Customers also don’t realize the staff doesn’t make the deliveries and complained to the wrong people about the lack of candy or certain drinks running out. The customer can easily just pick another drink and be clear about their order instead of making the staff guess what the customer wants trying to make the staff jump through hoops. Two kids and two movies so I was at the concessions a lot and witnessed all this nonsense. They work hard, maybe you should let them except tips because I was told I could not tip for my service received. The two men and two women (I can say that because I am uncancelable) that helped me worked wonders and keeping the line moving under such unnecessary pressure, they deserve better. And I just wanted to let them know they did a great job with my family this weekend. AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!!!!!!!
Heather Vaught: Over all its a good place to go watch a movie. But for the love of God bring back the icee machine! It's my only treat when going to the theater.
Crimson: Management needs to plan better.. they are out of popcorn, icee, pepsi, nachos... hoping that this is resolved by the time we come back next time. Who wants to see a movie with no snacks!?

Marquee Cinemas: what do users think?
Angela VonCanon: Fun, fun, fun!!! Mario murals outside were astounding. Clean inside. Loved it.
Charles Brennan: Comfortable seats. Good popcorn
Shahm Eiad: The seats look like they have been there for many years torn apart and not comfortable at all. The staff are so slow and not really helpful. The bathrooms are nasty and never were cleaned. The machines are all out of order except for 1 and the prices are really high for a theater that bad.
Zack Hedge people: It is a good move
Jeremy Karle: Very comfortable reclining seats. The concession offering could be a little better. Definitely will be returning. Great retro movies being shown. Loved seeing Back to the future on the big screen!!
Kristy Bonventre: During the summer they offer free family movies on Tuesday & Wednesdays. We always look forward to them, and love that they offer this!
Madelyn Yonnetti: They double charged my card 3 days after I went to their theater for a meal combo. In hindsight an extra $17 is not a lot to lose but it really annoys me that they think they can take my money like that
Jesse Markle: Nice setting and seats but for God's sake it was hot as heck in there! Shouldn't be that hot!
Vanessa Araujo: This place is dirty! The bathrooms and the theater
michelle cox: We love watching movies here.
Maynor Leon: Sound is very bad 👎 👎👎 I don't know why they put the volume so low, and you don't feel like you in a theater. You can hear everybody chewing and the worst thing they live the lights on.
Jacob Jensen: Nice staff, good food and great reclining seats
cat: I can't speak for nobody else I can speak for myself it's convenient I can walk to it and I love their $9 and something Tuesdays it probably went up but other than that I like it it's comfortable and it's convenient to other stores and restaurants so go check it out
Kim Massenburg: Love the location, cleanliness and reclining seats!!!
Nicki S: I enjoy this theater. The staff is lovely and always helpful. It's my go to theater in Wake Forest.
EDDY CASTRO: Recomendado…!!!
Don Paustian: Not sure what happened to this theatre. Fuzzy Screen and the action scenes are blurry. Add to that, the you get the impression the reclining chairs have been replaced recently (easier than a deep clean I would guess) with a cheaper version of what they had pre-covid. From here on out, I'll just wait for the streaming version or drive across town.
Robbie Chavis: The theater was crowded but nice.
Leslie-Ann McCormack: Good movie theaters some seats need work.
Aj Bklyn: It's clean, the staff very polite, but the cost of their menu items are on the high side. The screen has a tear on it. Still was able to watch the movie.
