I usually have a pretty nice time at this theater. No real complaints on my end! It's rare I go to the theaters but when I do, I come here. Good snack selection, service is friendly. Occasionally a little dirty but that's nothing out of the ordinary for a theater. read more

My boyfriend decided that he wanted to try this theater so we came to see despicable me 4 here. The common area of the theater was fairly clean when we arrived. We went to order snacks. I asked if anyone could help me at the bar. The worker said she wasn't sure if anyone could help me and just left it at that. I was eventually able to find a worker (the manager) who was able to help me. However it was about $17 for a glass of Josh wine. The theater itself has cloth seats that are fairly old/dirty. I made sure not to lay my head back during the movie. Also, doesn't have recliners. My boyfriend agreed that he doesn't want to come back. read more

My son, nephew and I went to watch F1 a few weeks ago. It was a late show around 930pm or so. Movie was great but we needed more popcorn around 20 mins into the movie. I went for my refill and the 2 workers kept working like they didn't see me. They kept cleaning up and I finally asked one of them if I could get a refill. He hardly spared me a glance and said to ask the other guy. The other guy told me they were out and continued to ignore me. I was dismissed. If you are going to promise your patrons the best experience ever before every movie screening and cannot even have the popcorn machine going, that is pretty darn sad! Oh yeah soda machines are usually out of ice too. And yes it matters because I hardly eat popcorn or drink soda and the movies is the one place I look forward to it. Do better please. read more

The theater near our house is horrible. It's 1.5 miles. Usually we go to riverbank or Tracy and avoid manteca theater. I think we see a movie here every 1.5-3 years. So with that said it's been a long month and my wife wanted to go to a movie so we went to Manteca after work because I was too tired to go. Keep In mind I will pay higher prices to avoid this theater. Seats are dirt and uncomfortable and the staff we have seen is lazy and angry youth and embody the jokes we make about this generation. I ordered a hot dog and as in wrapped it it looked really old. They told us it was over 2hrs old. I'll skip the interaction but the young lady is ill equipped to take care of herself and dude. The mental iq to breath and work here is amazing. If you have to come but be cautious it's a lame experience with a staff that will disappoint. Give them time to find there name and thoughts. read more

We started to go back to the theaters. AMC is doing a fantastic job with keeping everything clean. When you order your tickets online, you have the option to pre-order your food. You don't have to but, it is a nice feature. Everyone there has a smile and makes you feel welcomed. Since I am a A-Lister, there is my own line to go through for food/sodas, which is very convenient. Then there is a small bar with all the beer and liquor you desire Also, another perk of being an A-Lister, is that you get one free ticket 3x a week. Love it! Be forewarned: if you make a lot of noise and someone complains, a security officer will escort you out. Kind of funny to see. Don't be afraid to go back to the movies. It is clean and safe. I don't have any pictures of the inside, but I do have pictures of the ducks that swim around in the pond next to the theaters. read more

Seats are so disgusting! The smell from them is nauseating, theater is freezing, never coming here again.

Regular theater no bells or whistles regular seats close together not much leg room sitting next to each other watching a movie for a couple hours. This theater is not usually crowded each time we visit here we go to this theater only if our regular movie theater is full Parking lot is shared with other businesses but we usually get a spot close to the entrance easy to walk in buy tickets or scan your phone if you purchased online or with app which is how I normally purchase my tickets Concession stand is right as you walk in usually not to many people in line when we arrive they have all your usual snacks and drinks popcorn sodas candy pizza etc prices are the same as every other theater triple what you would pay at the store Again the seats are standard do not recline no tray or seat warmers but it is a theater that is not usually crowded which is nice when you want to enjoy a movie without the crowds or noise from a packed theater we see a movie at least once a month here read more

I came to watch the new Mario movie and was highly disappointed in the amenities of this theater. At first glance, it is fairly new and spacious. The ease of buying tickets with Fandango and scanning in was nice. Upon entering the theater and after paying to watch the movie in 3D, I walked into a normal sized room with horrible seating and a dark screen. I did expect it to be larger with all the bells and whistles. This place has old, crusted, and busted seats that do not recline. They are so close together that you're literally touching the person next to you and forced to stay upright in the most awful position ever. Good luck if you are a rather large person or want to spread out. The quality of the movie was off since it was dark at certain points. This made it hard to see. I'm not sure if the brightness was turned down....? Regarding the cleanliness of the place, I was shocked to see it so dirty. The bathroom was not well kept and the lobby was full of garbage and food on the floor. Based off the other reviews, this has been the condition of the theater for years. I'm not going to return and will remain a fan of Regal. At least they know how to give folks a higher quality movie experience. Sorry, AMC. read more

This place is clean and has good deals when you download the app. It has great stores surrounding it if you need something to do while you wait for your movie. read more

Not sure anymore seems like they have no management , only 1 butter dispenser working sometimes 3 or 2 no salt shakers also we always order our food and drinks ahead and it's always not ready normally 15 minutes later we get service under staffed not as clean as it used to be, we love going there but it's getting worse and normally I don't comment about anything but it's time we said something especially when we spend $60 plus just for the 2 of us please help on theses issues. read more

So I went here and watched wicked sing-along because there was none near me so I drove one hour to come over here and when I got there, the service was fine. We got our popcorn and drinks and then we went into the theater now when I walked into the theater, the seats were very very weirdly laid out, now, I usually don't care about that type of thing so I took it with a grain of salt then when watching the advertisements the screen cut out to static then I was like OK it's whatever it's just an advertisement, but we were watching the movie and I saw that the projector was projecting on the sides of the walls as well so they obviously didn't set up the projection right which I didn't care about that much but also the quality was not that good at all The sound was fine though. Then watching through the movie, the projector cut out again and we saw static again for like a minute or two and missed a big part of the movie. I just thought it was stupid, wouldn't recommend. read more

Theater is great But the food, is not so great. For almost $10.00, I purchased the chicken strips, then I got, 3 small pieces, mostly coating and very little chicken. After I pulled off the coating, ....... I should have taken a picture. read more

No heat in theater buy lobby nice and warm. I asked young attendant and he said sorry they inly work outside the theater. How dumb do they think we are?! Also place on serious need of remodel. Seats are old no cushion left and carpet dingy looking. Popcorn was good though. Back to Regal from now on. read more

Older movie theater, but only one in Manteca. It's in desperate need of renovations and more staffing during opening weekend/weekdays of movies. The seats are old cloth which require reupholstering. It's fairly cool inside, so good for warmer days. Parking is not great due to Bass Pro and Red Robin. read more

Every single time my friends want to meet for a movie here I try to protest, and unfortunately have been dragged here about three times within the past two years. This opened around 2008? 2009? Nothing on the inside has really been updated. They added a bar that's hardly ever open. The seats have never been changed, they're uncomfortable and dirty. The entire theater is dirty and kinda smells funny. Staff is high key "meh". It makes me sad because I typically love AMC theaters, but this is the worst one. I wanted to help this place (idk why) and tried to get in contact with the general manager to see if they would be interested in having cosplayers come to opening weekends and volunteer (no payment expected) to dress up and take pictures with kids, but was totally ignored. Last movie I went to here was Deadpool and Wolverine, and there was a toddler running around the entire movie (inside the theater). Not exactly how I want to experience an R rated movie. Please save your money and drive a little further to Riverbank or Modesto AMC needs a huge facelift and new management, someone who actually cares and takes pride in their business! read more

The theater was cozy and comfortable with the leather chairs. It was quiet but crowded during night time and the experience was nice. It is a fancy theater for people who would like to travel and relax. read more

What a shame at what has become of our local AMC Theaters here in Manteca. I was there with family Sunday 4/9/23. It can only be described, simply as a pigsty. The food was being prepared in pure filth. The soda machines were broken and the ones that worked were out of soda. The bathrooms were just gross. Also, would not provide extra bags/boxes to share popcorn. And the employees had bad attitudes with the General Manager leading the pack. She could care less when these issues were brought to her attention. Buyers Beware! Wait for the movie to come out on your favorite streaming service! read more

Went today and watched transformers, cinema 6 ... no Aircon!!!! Thought it was because it's commercial and will be up and running when movie starts, I was sweating inside, and I'm pretty sure all the people are sweating too, when the portal was close from the scene, everyone left... we knew what the ending will be, just soooo hot! They should have not used that cinema... I need a refund!!!! read more

I prefer to do this drive to visit this movie theater versus our in town options. This past visit here was extremely busy. But luckily we purchased our tickets online with reservations for seatings. So it was just a scan and go check in process. I can say that the floors and seats looked clean as far as no food or drinks laying around. I'm just not sure how much sanitizing they do of the seats and rails. They have more of a rocking style chair versus reclining here. We did experience one soda machine that only gave out drinks and no ice, and the one next to it gave out ice but no drinks. And one of the concession CC pads bit working. The movie of choice was good though read more

Bro, AMC just ruined my Wakanda Forever experience. I went to watch it tonight and that in 3D. I felt like someone was doing a prank, brightness was so low that some scenes I couldn't even see any faces, forget about the background. 80% of the whole movie I just listened to instead of watching. If you don't believe me, watch the trailer and then go watch it in this theater in 3D. You will need super powers and if you are an ordinary person like me then you can only go to the help desk and ask them to wake up that technician who is ruining/running OR maybe they don't have a qualified guy. I don't know what's wrong but I'll have to go to another theater (Not AMC) to watch it again. AMC DO NOT DISAPPOINT ME WHEN AVATAR RELEASES ELSE I'LL SELL ALL OF YOUR SHARES!!! read more

Came down from Stockton to dee Belfast, a story of "The Troubles" between the religious factions of Northern Ireland. Easy parking on street with many different restaurants in the shopping center locale. The theater itself is clean and well appointed with multiple s. Tickets can be bought online thru AMC with advance seat seat selection. I am a bit gearing impaired so the sound system could have been louder. All in all a pleasant afternoon. read more

I've lived in Manteca for several years and when I first moved here I was so excited to ditch Cinemark in Tracy and have a theatre so close to my house that was (supposedly) more luxury! I've had my problems with this theatre for a while but the experiences I've had in the past month or so have really highlighted why I wanted to leave this review. I saw three movies last month. Sonic the hedgehog 3, gladiator 2, and Nosferatu. I saw Sonic and nosferatu in this theatre and I saw gladiator 2 with some friends back in Tracy at Cinemark. Gladiator 2 was far and away the best movie experience I've had in a while because it wasn't at this theatre. Starting off, the ticket prices are usually around 2-5 dollars cheaper at other theaters as opposed to this one. Second, one of my friends had the rewards program at Cinemark. I always rolled my eyes at the AMC A-list offers because it didn't really seem like you got much out of it. Priority snack lines and waived ticket fees (which are already more expensive than other theaters) didn't sell me too much. At Cinemark however, not only did it get my friend waived ticket fees, his ticket was just straight up free because he got 1 free ticket per month, AND we also all got a flat 20% off all our concessions despite the fact that we did separate transitions, the bored teenager did not mind at all and scanned my friends barcode for all of us to get the extra discounts. And even if he didn't have that membership the base price for the food and drinks is wayyyyyy cheaper at Cinemark than AMC. Third, the comfort and movie watching experience was far better at Cinemark than AMC. AMC can fit way more chairs into a theatre sure but those chairs will be uncomfortable, unwashed, and made to have the exact wrong amount of leg room for people to squeeze by. This AMC also has what I would argue is one of the worst things for a movie theatre to have, screen decay and projector glitches. Several movies I've seen at AMC have had weird distortions and strange green lines or dots on the screens. I always took it to be a fluke of the film reel or digital artifacts but my showing of Nosferatu showed this was not the case! I saw the boy and the heron at this theatre when it came out and the entire time there were 5 green dots on the screen, again I mistook this as something other than the screen or projector. Then when I went to see Nosferatu we were placed in the same theatre (theatre 10, I doubt AMC is ever going to do anything about it but I'm putting it here just so you can avoid it lol) the same 5 dots were plastered on the screen! It almost ruined the movie for me because of how dark and atmospheric Nosferatu is. In extremely dark and moody scenes there were these obnoxious green dots in the background. This has never happened in any other theatre I've been to. This could easily be a case of the grass being greener on the other side but man, it felt like night and day being in the Cinemark for gladiator and being in the AMC for the other two. Save your money, go to one of the different theaters in the area read more

I've been going to AMC in Manteca for years and it has generally always been a good experience. My wife and I went last night for the first time in a year (thanks Covid) to see Fast and Furious 9 (I know it's a "junk food movie" don't judge me!). Tickets were bought online and scanned when we arrived, easy and no drama. The lobby was nicely air conditioned, which was a good sign because it was 95 degrees outside. However we were disappointed to discover that our theater (#10) was very warm and didn't have any A/C going. It wasn't too bad at first, but as the movie went on longer the theater got warmer and warmer to the point it was uncomfortably warm. We were sweating and would've killed just for a little circulating air. When the movie was over, we went back to refreshingly cool lobby, and then stepped outside to discover it was actually cooler outside than it was in the theater. I hope this isn't a new policy about "circulating air" and hope it was an isolated issue. Otherwise the luxury seating and smaller theaters in Tracy might be our new go-to. read more

This health department needs to visit this theater. I wanted to order all-beef hotdog and the employee said she'll check if there's more and she seems new and she had to wait for her co worker to ask. Long story short they had a few hot dogs left on the warmer and the other employee grabbed the food thermometer in the pen holder and poked the hotdog to check the temperature and saw her shaking her head and put the thermometer back to the pen holder ‍. How unsanitary is that!!! Disgusting!!! We recently moved to Tracy and this is the closest AMC to us and it's very disappointing. read more

Very comfortable theater with great treats to eat and drink. Especially like that you can fill/refill your own soda cups. Only drawback, sometimes the volume is too loud and they can't seem to adjust it down. We also like the patrolled parking and best of all, the beautiful duck pond! read more

First time here. Popcorn was terrible! So salty almost unbearable. They don't have kettle corn!! So sad !!! I threw away the popcorn. Didn't even eat half. Seats need to be upgraded.

It's just an movie theater. Nice quiet not crowded no special seats but a great place to go.

It's just as hot inside as it was outside. Didn't pay to watch a movie and have to sit there where everyone was sweating. Never again. I'll stick to regal theaters they keep it nice and cool. You'd figure for the price you pay for anything there they'd at least keep you in a nice cool climate. read more

Went to see guardians tonight with a large group of my son and his cousins and friends and it started as a disaster. We were sent to the wrong theater twice, with no movie listed out front. Had a man be very rude and wanted to call security on us for sitting in his seat, which was confusing because the theater was barely full. Waited forever for previews just to have it be The Little Mermaid. The reason I give this the 5 stars still is because I came out and spoke my frustrations at the manager and he immediately made it right. They put us in another theater and started the correct movie for us right away and with no previews and gave us passes to come back. As a business owner myself I understand that some times misfortunes happen and every day will always be a new learning experience on how to grow, and I really felt heard. I was very impressed with the effort to correct it and the teens ended the last day of school celebration the way they wanted. read more

No reclining seats or tray to put food on. Popcorn not perfectly popped , or fresh, or crunchy. Jalapeños for my nacho and cheese were dry and not stocked. Lots of self service options seemed nice when the options were available. The movie we watched had subtitles and I missed part of the movie to find someone to ask if they could adjust the projector so that we can see the full screen. Finally, the sound from the next theater could be heard in our theater. Pro: someone came to fix the projector right away. read more

This place captures the essence of Manteca in a nutshell. On the outside it look like its new and shiny but on the inside its really really bad. Wife and I went to see Eternals on a Saturday night. Womens restroom has un-flushed poop in the toilets and were dirty and disgusting. Mens restroom had piss all over the floors and seats and you can tell the restrooms arent cleaned that often. The mens restroom smelled offal. There was popcorn and crap all over the floor of the entire lobby, they had about 3 kids working the concession stand for a busy night. Seats inside the theater were old, dusty, dirty and smelled like mold. We noticed the smell right when we walked into the auditorium. It was all the seats that were bad. The screen you can tell was damaged because there was a line or crack going from top to bottom of the screen. I am not coming back to this theater unless i run out of every other option. Horrible theater. read more

We came on opening night for Frozen II with our daughter. We knew it was going to be packed so we got our tickets online! Assuming we'd be in reclining seats theater because we were able to chose our chairs I was pretty excited. We arrived, the line was so long just to get into the theater. We thought since we paid online we could just go in. No we had to wait. People didn't have their tickets pulled up on their phone or had to get them out their purses. Like hello. Have your shit ready. We finally get inside after about a 8 min wait.. we order some snacks. Counter was messy as shit. I get it's busy. But it takes 3 seconds to get a rag & spray, and wipe the counter down!! Esp with so many staff working! Floor was a mess candy, popcorn, soda everywhere!! We get out stuff, go to our theater, to find the disappointment of no reclining chairs, however it was a fairly large theater.. at least like 20 seats in 1 row! Crazy big like the theater in Emeryville, CA. Wasn't expecting that. The soda was flat, popcorn was burnt & extremely salty! I was too mad to get up and tell them. Plus we were in the middle of the row & we had already arrived about 10 mins late. I didn't wanna bug anyone getting back up! So we just left the popcorn to the floor! For now, I'll stick with the Tracy, ca theater. read more

In line to scan our tickets yesterday before our movie. Very busy week for AMC Selling tickets for $4.00 each. About 96 outside pretty hot day. While standing in line an employee is yelling to everyone sorry for the inconvenience but our concession stand is closed due to one of our employees falling hitting his head and blood is everywhere. Bummer!! No popcorn, no cold drinks. Bar is open though ok so we head that way too get at the very least a cup of ice water. Nope, cant give us that. Ask for cup at the concession area where employee are standing around with no visible blood. I'm not saying an accident didn't occur perhaps though things weren't handled accordingly? The employee told us we could go to Red Robin for a ice water. Ok. After our movie was over surprise the concession stand was OPEN! So we bought a cold drink and popcorn to go asked if the employee that caused the blood to be everywhere was ok. The employee taking our order was surprised and knew nothing about it. Not the best day to see a movie at the Manteca AMC theater. read more
