I used to come here often but it's been a few years so I decided to come back. It's definitely an odd vibe compared to what I remember: the front ticket counter looks abandoned but for some reason has ropes as if they still have lines there, and people were just sitting on the ground in front of the entrance in the shadows. I guess they don't sell candy anymore and they don't have cashiers to help with anything: you can only order a few chocolate candies so that was a hard pass. And again they had an elaborate rope system for the "line" but since there are no cashiers it doesn't seem used. read more

This place needs to be shutdown. Like the health department needs to come close it down. It is filthy. Mind you my husband, son and I came to the first showing of the day and there were popcorn bits on the floor like it hadn't been vaccumed properly. In addition our cloth seats smelled & candy wrappers were left in the cupholders. Those same cupholders had dried dirt or other substance because clearly they aren't being wiped clean. It truly is a disgrace to the AMC name and keeping it open only downgrades The AMC name. Sad, I use to come here many years ago with my family but unless this place gets a much needed update, health inspection and people who properly clean it I won't be back. Much better theatres in the area, avoid this one. read more

The floors and seats are filthy. Not just dirty. Filthy. Especially in the imax the imax theater. I don't think this place has been cleaned since it opened. The chairs are actually sticky. It's gross. This does not "make movies better". Now for the theater itself. The lighting is so poorly designed in the imax that the light washes out a good part of the screen. This does not "make movies better". This is a terrible location. The theater looks like it was put together in someone's basement or garage. I watch movies for a living. I see movies in theaters from here to Australia. This theater puts the LIE in liemax. It must just barely meet the requirements to be called imax. The only relation it has to any real imax screen is possibly the aspect ratio. The screen appears to have just been stuck on wall. The aesthetics are ghetto at best. Again, this isn't making movies better. read more

Came on a Monday night. This theater is always clean, organized and have the best service. I always look forward to their popcorn! read more

AMC Norwalk 20 - Pinocchio Unstrung - Cinema Near Me - Norwalk, California

Been going here for quite some time since I've moved closer to the area Me and my husband loved coming here Great staff , snacks , bar tenders , etc ! Until today ... Understanding the fact it is summer time and the weather is crazy hot But when you're in the theater with 50+ people No AC on , just some mini fans that you can't even feel How upsetting to spend money for an relax timing just to come out of the movie theater uncomfortable and sweaty Didn't even get to enjoy the movie just kept fanning myself . AMC if you see this , I would love an email were to discuss further about a refund Thank you ! read more

Came to watch the Twenty One Pilots movie and the film itself? Incredible. No notes. I was thriving. BUT. Why... why would you take away the mac and cheese balls? I've been coming here since I was a literal child. Through awkward phases, first dates, and now full-grown adult and somewhere along the way I don't know when but I fell deeply, passionately in love with those mac and cheese balls. To walk up to the counter and not see them on the menu felt like betrayal. Like heartbreak. Like the end of an era. RIP to a real one. On top of that, the IMAX seats were uncomfortable. My back was fighting for its life. Also since when do we have to PAY for jalapeños?? In this economy?? I did get a pizza instead, which honestly saved the day. Shoutout to the pizza for holding me together in my time of grief. I would've taken more pictures but my hands were full (emotionally and physically lol). The sour Slurpee for the SpongeBob movie though? Absolutely elite. 10/10. No crumbs. Overall: clean theater, clean restrooms, organized lines, great movie experience. I'm just mourning the mac and cheese balls and side-eyeing those IMAX seats. Bring them back and we can talk about 5 stars. read more

AMC Norwalk 20 - Popcorn - Cinema Near Me - Norwalk, California

Still my favorite AMC theater, the city of Norwalk always clean and closer to the police station feel really safe. Theatre has a lot of parking areas and even a parking structure across the street. Reserved seating as well so no need to rush for a seat. Inside the theatre is really clean and staff is so friendly and welcoming. Food is always great and they have a bar inside, fountain drink station and a slushie station as well. AMC just added a couple of new features as in a picture Photo Booth and claw machine really cool. The seats and chairs are really comfy and depending on the theater you select the amount of seating is available. Will definitely recommend and will be bk soon read more

A pretty decent AMC, looked fairly clean for what I experienced. Enjoyed that they had recliner seats that were pretty comfortable and clean. The concessions are fully automated with self service machines now, not entirely sure if that's a good or bad thing. Overall good experience.

AMC Norwalk 20 - No bad seats. - Cinema Near Me - Norwalk, California

i was just at this theatre and was sooo excited to watch the new moana in imax but unfortunately was not able to because of Kim. Kim is this weird worker who did not want to work there from the looks of it. she did not let me into the theatre, kicked me out and then said to watch a movie in dolby instead which was offensive because why would i want to watch a movie in lower quality, Kim. she said the best she could do was make me watch another movie like 20 minutes later but in dolby like. but i have a life kim and i have places to be. Kim has black hair and a bun or ponytail , was in Guest service and is very mean to scream at guests. She says she can't handle her job bc of people like me who are clueless and don't know how to do anything when she can't scan a ticket and inform anyone that the movie isn't playing. Like why hire her when she doesn't do anything, you know? read more

As someone who is a huge moviegoer and fan of AMCs, I'm surprised it took me this long to come to this AMC! But, I found myself in the area for work and this location popped up on my AMC app! This is definitely a more basic AMC that's pretty big and spacious with a large variety of films playing. The seats were fairly comfortable and relaxing and I liked how they were cushiony and reclining. The stadium seating style in the theater I was in made for a bit more privacy and separation from others, especially since there were noisy and disruptive theater goers nearby. I can't fault the theater for that, though, as they can't stop these people from attending. I do wish the sound quality was just a little bit more amplified though to drown out these sounds. I did find the picture quality to be really good and I felt really immersed in what I watched. The theater I was in was clean and well maintained. The staff I interacted with were also friendly. I didn't purchase food or drink but the food I saw others get looked fresh and the smell lingered. Parking was very easy in the lot across the street, especially since it was evening and the gate was up. I was a little confused at first if I could park there, since it was labeled for jury duty, but I saw others parking there and walking across the bridge to the AMC, which reassured me! I would return again the next time I'm in the area! read more

I've been to this AMC location many times and it's always been a spot to go to watch a movie whenever able to, due to close convenience. It's a decent spot compared to other AMC's and not as big as others but has a good amount of parking at the structure across from it or in the back lot that makes it good for trying to catch a movie on time and not having to worry about for parking. BUT things that this AMC can improve on, would be their service. For people that are AMC stubs premiere or A-List members, they have a separate line outside that would get line priority. I was with my cousin in line and waited in the special premiere/A-list line priority line and literally was trying to just print out our tickets for the movie that we were going to watch. I kid you not where the worker lady in the booth in front did not pay attention or give any notice to this line and took like 6 pairs/families of people from the general line and never acknowledged us which was truly a disappointment because why promote AMC stubs, premiere and A-list if you can't even accommodate to people paying extra for that extra service? So we ended up going inside and spoke with a manager about it and mentioned our concern about it and they said they would talk to that worker but tbh, it's not the first time I've seen this and I don't think their service is near similar to the other AMC's at other locations. It's really sad because I really like this AMC for convenience in location but the service is pretty bad not just with the front booth window but even with the one line for all for concessions which can be a hit or miss sometimes. It would be nice if they had two separate lines for general and stubs members inside the theater like how other AMC's do it. read more

Just left from seeing the Odyssey movie in the IMAX theater, AMC yall should be ashamed of yall self for having people pay $26 to sit in a 3 hour movie with traditional seats , yall desperately need to switch all theaters to recliners seats ASAP . And make sure when you have a theater full of folks to keep the Air conditioner running . read more

Unnecessarily dystopian feel to this theater that's been my main movie stop since birth. Tablets to order, recliners that don't fully lift your feet, hot & stuffy auditorium, stale popcorn from leaving it out and not serving it as ordered, while still charging excessively for it. Total for a movie now cost me, WITH AMC Stubs discount provided from a friend because I would never pay for that... Ticket: $21.99 Large popcorn & large fountain drink: $17.85 Grand total: $39.84 Almost $40/person just to go to the MOVIES. Since when does it cost roughly 2 hours of minimum wage work to pay for a movie ticket? Your own employees couldn't afford it. A little or a lot insane? I think a lot, especially in a dying industry. Why would someone pay $40 to go to a disorganized, not monitored, stinky theater full of classless heathens with zero public etiquette and stale popcorn for a recycled, half-heartedly, AI script-written movie? You guys are killing your own theater. Bring back ushers, cashiers, front box purchasing options, first come first serve basis for seats instead of the ridiculous have to reserve at minimum a week in advance seats for people to STILL arrive late to the show and the popcorn being left out in the open to harden and get cold instead of just... serving it as ordered? How much time is that really saving? Honestly? I was sad to see how dead the theater was for a Friday night, at a premier of a new movie (Scream 7 was rancid, btw, just pirate it if you must watch it and by pirate I mean purchase legally from a trusted streaming service and definitely not a website that rhymes with 321tubies) I worked at AMC back in the day and it's been over a decade but man it's changed, and for the worst. Why do we need a bar at the theaters? Who is realistically feeling the need for a drink at a movie theater? Are you not entertained? How good was Gladiator btw? Anyway... The seats were uncomfortable, the auditorium was super stuffy, so I kept getting stuck to my seat, which was smaller than I'm used to especially for a theater where I only have space on my seat for my bag/jacket/belongings and all of it had to sit uncomfortably on my lap since the seats' feet didn't fully reclined upwards; it sat at a weird angle so my stuff would slide off. Bit annoying. Doubt anything will actually change for the better, they'll keep charging greedy prices while scratching their heads at why people no longer find it fun to go to the movies. Used to be a nice little after dinner event. Now we have to make reservations to sit and sweat. For $40. No, thank you. read more

I recently watched The Odyssey at AMC Norwalk and had a solid experience overall. There was a little trash left in the cupholder from the previous showing, but honestly that's pretty common after a busy screening and it wasn't a big deal. I also grabbed an ICEE, and it was good as usual. The seats were the same as my last visit, comfortable enough for a long movie. The movie itself was great, and I really enjoyed my time. Overall, a good theater to catch a movie, and I'd definitely come back for another showing. read more

Never understood why theaters let their facilities become disgusting...for the price they're charging now on concessions and ticket prices, these places should be top notch. This is why movie theaters are a dying business... I came to see The Odyssey in IMAX at the Norwalk AMC and oh boy...what a dump.. Seats were horrible (small, dirty, frayed)... Theater smelled like a homeless encampment... Trash was still on the ground from the previous showing . Idk man...I avoid movie theaters as much as possible but every now and then a movie comes out that requires a theater experience...but it always leaves me with a sour taste in my mouth... read more

Went to watch a movie during 85degree weather. It was a 2hr 50min movie and not sure if the AC in the theatre was turned down or my nervous system turned the heat up. No more ordering snacks with a live person, kiosks have taken over. I do thank the young man for helping me navigate it. Staff is friendly and lots of parking and movie times which is a plus. read more

I went to AMC Norwalk 20 and overall had a pretty good experience. I had placed a mobile order, and I think Adriana was the manager. She was really helpful and assisted us with the mobile order so we didn't have to wait in the long line, which made everything go much smoother. The theater was clean, the seating was comfortable, and the movie experience was great. I do recommend mobile ordering, especially if you want to avoid waiting in line. Overall, everything went well. read more

I watched Weapons here on a Tuesday night. Parking wasn't too bad -- just use the garage across the street for easy access. My original theater ended up being flooded, but customer service handled it really well and got us into another showing the same night. Appreciate the quick accommodation! I believe it was an IMAX screening, though there weren't any reclining seats. Still enjoyed the movie, lol. Overall, not a theater I'd go out of my way to visit again unless I was already in the area. (85/100) read more

I don't think I've ever had one experience with good fresh popcorn. It's ALWAYS stale. Always old sad popcorn. I didn't notice how awful it was until I went to another movie theater and had my very first fresh soft fluffy bouncy airy popcorn. AMC's popcorn could never! I'm starting to wonder if they just recycle old popcorn from previous days read more

My SO and I went to see Good Fortune on a whim, and he had some free tickets via his employer. There's a $5-ish fee online for processing, but the thing is either you pre-order online to reserve your seats, or you have to get there earlier to pick. So, that's the disadvantage of seated theaters, I suppose. Thankfully, we were in the back, but yeah. They also didn't check our IDs, even though the film was rated R. The seats do recline, and the armrests can go up. Parking was found in the back, but you could also park in the structure. read more

The parking situation is a bit confusing at this location- requires you to park in structure across and while it states their rates, the gate is open and you don't have to pay! (At least I didn't on a Wednesday night at 6:15pm) I'm sad they didn't have seat warmers but the theatre is overall clean! Can be a little confusing trying to find your theatre number because it feels a bit out of order. Otherwise, staff was kind! read more

Movie theater ticket prices are NO JOKE these days! Any opportunity for a discount or voucher or whatever is always greatly appreciated! I had that *exact* opportunity, and wanted to treat the kids (and myself) to a movie for Thanksgiving Break. My haphazard brain managed to mess that opportunity up *big time* online. After cursing out my computer screen, 1/5 yelp stars, btw, cause that doesn't help at all, I had to drive over to AMC to try to fix my mess up. !!!SHOUT OUT TO MANAGER JOCELYN!!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you for your patience and understanding!!! And thank you for fixing what I messed up! I appreciate you so very much, and I'm sure my kids appreciate you just as much! Also, thank you to the staff that I talked to over the phone for being so helpful and nice, and for directing me to get things squared away! I don't remember your names (haphazard brain, remember?) but this all went down on November 25, 2025 at around 3pm-ish. read more

Decent theater staff is always nice and fairly clean when not super busy. however the imax theater in particular needs major updates, the seats are stained and old and the cloth seem to hold lots of moisture, the hallways to the left and right of the screen l have bright lights that you can see very easily during the movie and even worse the main hallway light shines directly onto the bottom right corner of the screen and you can clearly see it when movies are playing as an a lister it's kinda lame to not have a priority line especially given since this theater is almost completely automated with kiosks and some people take sooooo long it really kinda ruins the experience. all of the other smaller theaters and nice with clean recliners that you can tell are fairly new so no complaints there. overall a good theater and i will continue to come here because it is the closest imax and dolby screens, otherwise i would make the drive to orange 30 but i think this theater deserves a healthy makeover because it looks rundown at certain points. read more

A month plus ago I went to see Superman (2025) with a POF date. We went to see it right before they pulled it out the theater for being an old movie . So we saw it really late in release. But still caught it on the tail end of release. So we got the full big screen experience. Overall it was a fantastic movie. I always knew about this theater. But never went ti it until Today. It's off 5 fwy/Imperial Hwy. Plus it's in the right rear to LA County Recorder building. Parking is limited here. So Im taking off a star for that alone. 0/7 parking spaces in front of theater are non-disabled and available exclusively for AMC Parking. Spaces facing AMC building are exclusively designated for AMC free parking. They are as follows: 52/52 parking spaces behind theater are non-disabled and available exclusively for AMC free Parking. 14/16 spaces on side of theater are non-disabled and available exclusively for AMC free Parking. There appears to be other spaces available that may be used for AMC parking: 60/64 parking spaces in the OutbackSteak parking lot are non-disabled and doesn't say "OutbackSteak only" or "No AMC/No theater parking." So you can safely park there for free. There is the courthouse building parking structure (Norwalk Civic Center Parking) with 2000 parking spaces. It has the AMC logo on the building. However, I think you have to pay. So I wouldn't take the chance if you are looking for free parking. read more

Parking WAS DOWN THE STREET, ROUND THE CORNER IN THE BACK. About a 8 min walk. The theater was nice, self checkout was pretty modern/up to date. I read tons of comments out the theater being dirty, unclean, but that wasn't my experience. The theater was clean, the restroom was clean, and neither had a foul odors. I would have preferred a person as a cashier though. The dipndots NOT worth the price. The movie seats, recliner seats, were comfy asf, probably the most comfy movie recliner I've sat in. It gave lazy boy recliner vibes. The theater WAS HOT though too many bodies in there to not be having the AC blasting, I left out my back was sweating! They had 4 small ceiling fans on low, they did absolutely nothing. Dress accordingly, aside from the heat I do recommend. 3.5/4 read more

Jazzmine in customer service was very friendly and helpful when I needed to cancel a movie and reschedule without losing my AMC Stubs Reward. She must be good since she's mentioned in another Yelp review here from 3 yrs ago, so she must know what's up and should be a manager if not already. Closed captioning devices are available and always fully charged. I'm happy they have coffee available because not all AMC locations do (or maybe the employees don't want to hassle). It's great AMC has parking validation for the city parking structure across the street. That's something Jazzmine explained to me. I don't like the self-serve concession kiosks because the express lane was a benefit of paying for AMC Stubs Premiere. I'm not sure if the kiosks save time or not, or if it was a way to cut employees. Keep going to theaters for movies or it may not be possible if they all close down! read more

Came for the 10:00 pm showing of Nosferatu on Christmas Eve; the movie was amazing but the facilities seemed a little lacking. Not too many signs at night directing you to the parking lot across the street, it says court employee parking but upon further inspection we found an AMC elevator sign inside the parking garage, which assured us it was a parking lot. Upon entering at 10:00 pm, the concession line was daunting, all of the roped queue was filled and it seemed like the line was moving slowly. If there was a premiere line I didn't see it because it was all full! The bathrooms were adequately clean. In the theater, we picked seats on the left section, and the angle is a little difficult to see the bottom of the screen for someone 5'4"; the chair before and the rails block the bottom 1/3 of the screen. The floor on our row (which was just 3 seats) was sticky and the seats were a little awkwardly designed, and the only comfortable position I found was sitting straight up. read more
