It has been a while since we came here. Came to catch the New Spider-Man movie and we bought our tickets online so we just walked in and didn't have to deal with lines or anything like that. The guys in the front greeted you as well. You go inside, they scan your ticket and you are on your way. Their concessions are the usual, pop corn, candy and slushies and all that. One thing that was very inconvenient is they don't take Cash??! Guess this was implemented a few weeks ago a lot of places are going cashless but for those who just pay cash it's dumb in my opinion it's CASH? Another little side note it says on your ticket stub but it's a shame this is what it has come to that you need 45-1hr of advertisements before your movie starts no wonder so many people came in a few minutes before the Actual movie started.. Next time we're coming later.. the Movie was Great, the sound was pretty amazing and we had a good time with friends. read more

This is my favorite movie theater in Torrance. The screens and the theaters are bigger than the ones at the Galleria. Parking's pretty decent in the covered parking lot next door, and the service is good! I watch several movies here every year, and it's just a really good theater. Popcorn is fresh and hot. Drink machines are always working. Bathrooms are pretty clean, at least on the men's side. Paper towels and toilet paper, your basics are always there. I haven't read any of the other reviews, but I don't see why this theater isn't rated higher. I've always had a good time while I'm here. Five stars! read more

Very disappointed in AMC. If you are thinking of buying someone a gift card to AMC, DON'T!!! Their corporate office has canceled older cards and MAY give you fifty cents on the dollar IF you can get their customer service to respond. People at the actual theater have zero authority to help you (or if they do, they don't do anything to help you with those older cards). To be fair, one of the guys at this location was helpful to us when buying tickets . Actually suggested buying tickets to the cheaper screening but we wanted to try the Dolby one. The theater is a little dated, seats are not as favorable for couples as they are for singles. Free parking in the parking garage or outside lot. The parking garage is a bit of a distance if you are used to parking close to a door. We're spending more time at the Beach Cities theater. Closer parking, very good deals on Tuesdays, and discounts if you are a member or a senior. Pick wisely and...enjoy!!! read more

Went to see the Michael Jackson movie "Michael" at Del Amo. Thanks to T-Mobile and Atom Tickets, my wife and I were able to see it in IMAX for only $5! Fantastic deal. If you are a Michael Jackson fan, IMAX is the ONLY way to see this film. The mix on the soundtrack of this film is superb and only IMAX will do justice to Jaafar Jackson's performance dancing like uncle Michael. Incredible. I know MJ's life was controversial but strictly as a performer and writer, his genius cannot be denied. The theatre experience was all that I could ask for. Projection and sound system were flawless. Staff was helpful. Concessions were a bit skimpy on the reduced size large popcorn since my last visit not that long ago though. Restrooms were clean and well stocked overall. Extremely pleased with this visit to Del Amo AMC. read more

This is my go to movie spot in the South Bay area. I am an AMC A-lister member and I usually go to this place because of the surrounding restaurants and bars in the area. If your movie doesn't start for another hour or two. There are plenty of restaurants nearby you can chill to kill some time. Very cool that I can have some drinks then go upstairs when my movie is ready. I went here on a Thursday to see Mortal Kombat 2. The place is Clean and welcoming. The concession stand is large with multiple cashiers ready to take your order. This place has 2 Imax theaters. They are nice. The only dissapointing thing about this AMC theater is the inconsistency of stadium seating. If I am not mistaken, some auditoriums has stadium seating and some does not. Kind of like a Hybrid theater. Overall this place is cool. Within the heart of Del Amo Mall. Thursdays is my best time. It gets packed on the weekends. read more

AMC Del Amo 18 - Movie Theater Entrance - Cinema Near Me - Torrance, California

On Thursday, July 16, 2026, I went to the 10:30 p.m. showing of "The Odyssey." Overall, I enjoyed the movie; but the volume was too loud, creating some reverberation that made the dialogue hard to catch at times. When the show ended at 2:00 a.m., the lobby was empty with no staff in sight. Normally, I'd just let it slide. But because this was a major weekend release, I wanted to leave a message on the theater's voicemail. After wading through a long phone menu, I found there was no one to answer and no voicemail option available. I wonder what quality assurance checks management makes (focus, brightness and audio levels). And if they need to be made aware of a problems, they should have a simple way for the audience to help them help themselves. read more

We went this past weekend to see the Michael Jackson movie, and wow WOW wow it was incredible. I honestly could watch it over and over again, lol. We always choose the Dolby Cinema when we come here because it just makes the whole experience better. The recliner seats are super spacious and comfortable, and I love that you're not crammed next to people, it gives you room to actually relax and enjoy the movie! This AMC has definitely become our go-to theater for many years. The food is always on point, the staff is friendly, and every time we've gone, it hasn't been overly crowded which I really appreciate. I still remember the days when going to the movies meant long lines just to get in and even longer ones for snacks, so this is a nice change. It's also located at our go-to mall, which makes it even more convenient. read more

What I thought would be an enjoyable movie day with finally being able to see The Odyssey and did not happen. Entered theatre 12 and it was HOT, went to my row and even in the dark you could see how filthy the seats were. I tried to get comfortable through the hotness and dirty seats and began to eat my hot dog. Hot dog was terrible and that did it for me. read more

Best popcorn ever !!! AMC has the best popcorn. It does not compare to other movie theaters. Del Amo 18 is great. They do need to monitor the YAPPERS while movies play. I know that must be hard but no one WANTS to get out their seat to miss any more of the movie after they can't hear or watch the movie while the yapper just keeps talking This is not by fault of the theater but my goodness, some people do NOT belong at the theater. And staff should keep a look out for these types of movie ruiners AMC was exceptionally clean. The staff was nice. The website app was not working and had to pay inside. This was quick. We had the XL theater. It was clean. Sound was crisp. Movie was great. Lots of food options. read more

Ever since getting the A-List movie pass, I've been on a movie crazy for the last few months in 2025 and nearby I have no IMAX screen. One of the closest ones is at Del Amo so I had to check it out. Personally, the only difference between a normal screen and IMAX is that the screen is just insanely bigger. Am I missing something? But overall watching F1 for the second time and in IMAX here was very fulfilling and was a great experience. Seats were good and enjoyed the huge screen. The concession stand was pretty busy here and I found out with the AMC pass you can use the Gold line to order so it's like a fast pass. read more

With all the streaming apps we have nowadays, cheaper priced huge televisions and surround sound speakers, and how COVID changed a lot of stuff in this world we live in, I thought at one point that moviehouses will not survive. My husband and I started once again watching movies on the big screen. It's been probably more than 3 years or so since the last movie on the big screen. Anyway, we enjoyed the not really crowded AMC moviehouse and the we get the same seats each time (also the senior discount). This AMC theater was clean and no funky smell of the moviehouses long ago...and the sticky floors. Although the concession prices are waaaaayyyyyyy crazy now, that popcorn smell could just be irresistible as the fizz of the sodas! Will be coming back again here...and the restrooms were clean :-) read more

AMC Del Amo 18 is one of my go-to spots for catching new releases. The location inside the Del Amo Fashion Center makes it convenient to find parking - there's so much parking. The theater itself is pretty clean, and the seats are comfortable, especially in the Dolby and Prime rooms. If you haven't tried Dolby Cinema here, do it--it's worth the extra few bucks for the sound and picture quality. Staff is usually friendly, though sometimes the lines can be slow, especially on busy nights. I recommend using the app to pre-order tickets and snacks to save time. Would I come back? Yes read more

A good AMC with a really cool facade. It kind of punctuates the Del Amo mall and feels pretty huge when you see it. The AMC itself is about what you expect inside, and looks they like basically all do. My only gripe with this one is that the theater we saw the movie in had really old seats, and they weren't as comfortable as the AMC's I'm used to in Burbank. Maybe some of the other theaters here have those reclining seats like the Burbank AMCs but for the movie we saw, the seats felt like they were pretty tight together and not super comfy. Otherwise a solid space! read more

AMC Del Amo 18 - Bathroom break when seeing the new conjuring movie - Cinema Near Me - Torrance, California

* I've frequented the Torrance Del Amo AMC for many years now & found it to be the best cinema in the area. * Their big screen presentations are excellent & the seats are cushy & very comfortable. * Most recently their menu has expanded significantly & my favorite are the pretzel bits with the warm melted cheese dip. * The parking was generally good, but more recently become tighter as the rear lot across from the cinema has been blocked off. * But the environment & service is still very good there & the outdoor mall access is an added bonus. read more

When the AC isn't working you would hope you have employees with common sense. You think someone taking your ticket who know the AC issue would tell yo before you walk to the theatre to see a 3 hour movie that the AC isn't working. It was like warm feet in the theater. And I'm seeing it in 70mm I hope the projectionist room was cooled but I don't think it was either. You don't run 70mm fit in a room that isn't cooled. So I guess its not common sense all around these days. read more

Kool movie great graphics the minions are unique characters five star movie will be watching again

By far the cleanest AMC theaters and friendliest staff yet. My local location can't even compare to this one. Plenty of free parking next to the theater and if you arrive too early for your movie, there are plenty of stores and restaurants to wait at until it starts. From the lobby, to the restrooms, to the theater itself is extremely well maintained, barely a single piece of trash to be found lying around. They offer IMAX screenings which is neat. Only things I wished they had are reclining seats and hot popcorn. Unfortunately my popcorn is cold, although still pretty good. read more

Attended the opening night of MI: Final Reckoning with reserved seats in the Dolby Theatre. Not a good experience. When we walked into the auditorium the cleaning crew asked us to wait outside until they finished. Fine, I like a clean theatre. When we entered and went to our seats our immediate reaction was did they really clean up!? $28 per for reclining leather seats and, as we walked down the strong row we saw seat after seat covered in popcorn and (likely butter) on the seat rests. Our seats had popcorn embedded everywhere. The seat recline buttons were covered in oil or butter. It was disgustingly. I saw several patrons near us going to the restroom and returning with wet paper towels to clean their seats. We did the same. A few patrons could be heard saying "Don't touch that (profanity). When the previews began the temperature in the auditorium was very warm. I'd estimate the high 70's or even 80. The folks next to us went out to complain but nothing was done. It was so hot the overwhelming BO aroma became very unpleasant. The picture and sound was great but the e felt trapped like in a hot locker room. The price of tickets has gone sky high and the customer experience has gone downhill. I know they have expenses to pay but they need to keep their theaters in better condition. Imagine putting your hands on a sticky oil covered arm rest. Next time I'll remember to bring cleaning supplies with me as I have no expectation of an improved experience. read more

I went to watch Spider Man Brand New Day (Dolby). Everything is good sound picture setting but the thing is it's hot inside. They don't open AC and it's summer time. So kinda had breathing problem. So I recommend them to open AC read more

Too... many... commercials! 30 minutes of ads and trailers. This is why I - and many others - hate going to movie theaters.

All time worst theatre to go to if you're wanting to see a movie on opening weekend & you want food. I pre-ordered twice & each time I missed the beginning of the film because my food was ready 30 minutes after it's assigned time. The Uber or DoorDash orders around me seemed to move faster than their own in-app food. Never again! read more

I went here on July 22nd to see the 4:30 showing of "The Odyssey" in theatre 12. It was supported to be in IMAX, but it was definitely not. Half the screen was not being used. In addition the screen was flickering and had a white line appearing in the middle of the movie every 2-3 minutes. It was awful. Been waiting awhile for this movie just to be ripped off and given a horrible theatre. Wish I would've gotten a refund honestly. Do not go here until they fix that. read more

This theatre is always super clean and great to watch movies at. Mike the manager was very friendly when I bought my snacks and I felt appreciated as an A List member! Thanks for keeping the theatre great! read more

Exceptional service and always kept clean. My only complain is Dolby is always warm or hot.

I like this place! It has the downside that all theatres have, it's too expensive. Compare going to the movies with a Netflix subscription and make it make sense. Wish they would do more to build community amongst their A-List members, because meeting strangers or people watching is one of the few advantages AMC has over streaming. Also wish they would expand their arcade! Staff is cool but not overly invested, as you'd expect. read more

I can't remember the last time I saw a movie in a theater. I had never been to this theater before. It wasn't crowded during the discounted matinee show. Tickets were $13.19 and you buy tickets at the kiosks or buy advance tickets online. The lobby, theater, and restroom were clean. The workers were nice and polite. This is a good place to see a movie because you can eat at one of the many mall restaurants afterwards. read more

You'll need to have a talk with that Asian employee scanning people's tickets. He gave me attitude and to his one of his coworkers as well. Snatched the box away from her and closed the box to prevent her from getting the item she needed.

This is not my favorite location, simply because it's at one of the biggest shopping centers in the area, and yet it's one of the least luxurious locations I've ever been to. It seems that they avoid upgrading at all costs. The best time to do an upgrade would've been during the pandemic when everything was shut down.They still don't have a bar, and many of the theaters don't have reclining seats. read more

First time seeing a movie in Del Amo mall...good overall experience. It's been a while since a first run movie has caught our eye (Dune Part 2), so we haven't been to a theater in a while. So when an invitation to see a free movie to preview popped up, and it was to a theater that had free parking, we submitted our RSVP. It's a similar set-up as the other times, where you come about 2 hours before the start time to guarantee a spot. You are then allowed inside the theater about an hour beforehand. Every seat in the theater was full, and it definitely added to the enjoyment of the film. As for the complex itself, it is located on the NE corner of this huge mall. The particular theater that was chosen is older so no recliners, full service, or theater level seating...but it is able to hold quite a few people. We used the multi-level parking garage that is connected to the mall. Since we came so early, we got a decent parking spot on the same level as the theaters. However, once the movie was over, it was late enough to have the outside doors to the mall be closed. Thus we had to find a different way to the parking garage from the outside (taking a flight of stairs). Very important at this mall to remember where you parked your car. read more
