    My first trip to the movies since the COVID-19 outbreak and I felt safe and welcomed. Parking was fine, they offered a combo with free refills and cool video games and movie trivia to pass the time until the film began. The theater wasn't crowded and it was tidy (looking), but there was a rank and overpowering scent of urine throughout the entire place. It is for this reason this place only earned three stars. I am not sure if a pipe busted, a drain was broken or a disgruntled employee defouled the place, but it smelled like a subway bathroom... So much that I left my mask on to cut the stench.

    Really rude staff. You have to buy tickets at the snack bar which is always busy and the workers have the worst attitude ever

I was looking forward to enjoying a nice, peaceful movie night--just escaping into a different world for a couple of hours. At first, everything felt perfect. The screen lit up, the sound filled the room, and I became immersed in the story. The audience around me was quiet and respectful, which made the experience even better. A good theater environment allows you to forget about everything else and focus completely on the film. However, not long after the movie started, loud cultural music began playing in the theater room next to ours. It sounded like there was a celebration or a special screening happening, with energetic songs and heavy bass. While I respect and appreciate cultural music and events, the volume was so loud that it carried straight through the walls and into our theater. During quiet scenes, the bass thumped loudly, and the music overlapped with the dialogue on screen. The biggest issue was that the rooms clearly were not soundproof. Instead of thick, insulated walls blocking outside noise, it felt like only a thin barrier separated the theaters. Every beat and rhythm echoed into our space, making it difficult to concentrate. Movie theaters are designed to create an immersive experience, but without proper soundproofing, that experience is easily disrupted. As the movie continued, I found myself more distracted than entertained. Important emotional moments were interrupted by sudden bursts of music from next door. Other people in the theater shifted in their seats, and a few even looked around in frustration. The peaceful atmosphere that makes movie nights enjoyable had completely disappeared. In the end, what was supposed to be a lovely, relaxing evening turned into a disappointing experience. While the event in the other room may have been meaningful for those attending, the lack of soundproofing between theaters showed poor planning and consideration. A movie theater should provide an escape from outside noise, and without proper sound insulation, that magic is lost.

    I'll never understand why people still pay money to see a movie at the long outdated Regal Birkdale…read moreTheater, when this welcoming cinema exists only 10 minutes up the interstate. Offering better amenities & cheaper admission prices. I really enjoy coming to this AmStar by Santikos Mooresville location and have been for many years. The staff are always very kind & helpful, & the reclining chairs in the auditorium are the best in the area. There's plenty of room to get in & out of the aisles also. I adore the well lit & vivid colors of the lobby, white & lime green (my favorite color)! This theater has been properly kept up with & reasonably updated over the last 5-6 years. Earlier this year, they finally got the Coca-Cola Free-Style machines & they also now have super cool self serve popcorn machines. Popcorn, Soda, and ICEES are ALL REFILLABLE regardless of the size you order. The ticket prices are also reasonable given the updates made recently (and still less expensive than Regal Birkdale). Just saying! There could be some better "real-food" options, but other than that AmStar by Santikos Mooresville is currently the best theater for a movie going experience (aside from the AMC's at the malls) in the Lake Norman area! (Note: Photos of the lobby & auditoriums are from Halloween 2025 & the photos of the Coca-Cola Freestyle machines & self serve popcorn machine are from February 2026).

Bet you they don't check men's pockets. Seems sexist. It's also a huge invasion of privacy. What if a man looks into my purse and sees my tampons. Embarrassing. My bag isn't even oversized, it's a large fannypack. They also don't accept cash at all. OR TAP?! And don't give me, "we are checking for weapons," when was the last time something dangerous happened at AmStar 14? If you're worried about danger reach out to the local police department or hire professionals to be security. Not invade the privacy of all the individuals who choose to carry purses. This theater is losing its spark. The theatre, cinema experience is dead.
