Disappointed with how the Helen MT theater location never brings in the Christian films. If they do happen to show them they are only running for 3-4 days at best with very limited show times being available. In the past month, two very good movies: He Calls Me Daughter which was never even shown. And The Great Awakening which will only be shown for 5 days and for only afternoon movie times, No evenings times were offered This theater seems to have a lot of horror and small child themed flicks over all. It would be nice to see more family friendly films that cater to the "whole" family being offered , Instead of constant Horror and small children themed flicks being the main movie choices running for multiple weeks. read more

For a smaller city in Montana, I thought this movie theater was pretty good. It has a good number of screens, so you have a nice selection of movie titles. The location is conveniently within Great Northern Town Center, so parking was a breeze and makes it easy to grab a bite before or after the movie. You buy movie tickets at the concession stand here, which I think could cause a line to form on busy days. It would be nice if there was a kiosk to buy tickets from. The movie-watching experience itself is good as they have stadium seating in the auditorium, which is more comfortable than regular movie theater seats. I think this is probably the best place to view a movie in Helena, based on the facilities and number of movies playing. read more

First off, online it specifically says if a person under age is accompanied by a person of 17 years or older(image attached below) me a 16 year old about ti turn 17 in 5 days went with my 17 year old cousin and 18 year old brother to go see a rated R film as a fun thing for us to do as we dont get to do all that much by ourselves and we thought it would be alright because of what it said online. We ordered the tickets online so it would be quicker. We showed them our ticket order and she began printing our tickets, she then asked for our IDs to which we happily provided. My cousin and brother were given the okay but when she got to looking at mine she looked at it perplexed and as if she was having trouble doing math and said "you won't be 17 for a whileeee soooo I can't let you in" my birthday is in 5DAYS I dont believe that is "a while" then my cousin and brother tried to explain but she completely blew us off then another girl came over and was listening then butted in and said "yeah she cant" and my cousin then again tried to explain the website to which the woman stared blankly then looked around and said "uhhhhhmm policy is people under age have to be accompanied by someone of the age of...uh...30" obviously just pulling a random age. We then had our parents call them and they completely blew our parents off. Mind you the movie is only said to be in theaters for 5 days just before my birthday and there's nothing like being able to see a movie from a series that you love with your favorite people but this experience has ruined that and I domt know if we will be returning. Terrible customer service. Not impressed. 0 star review but had to put a 1 so this would post. read more

Cinemark Helena and XD - Online requirements - Cinema Near Me - Helena, Montana

Every Thanksgiving time, we end up watching a movie for my niece's birthday. It just so happens there's always some kind of Pixar or Disney Animation Studio movie released at this time and thus that is what we typically watch. It's an okay theater, small with similar amenities as other theaters I've been to, but during peak days and times, the lines can be long and there's only 2 registers for both tickets and concession stands which means you're rushing if you're running late for your show. L O C A T I O N Cinemark is located pretty much in the heart of Helena's downtown area. There are several eateries nearby and a parking area though the closest parking to the theater is the side street parking which is not enough for everyone in the theater. I N T E R I O R Although the exterior seems new, the interior is definitely dated. The seats of the theater are old so you wonder if they ever steam clean them but you know what? There are plenty of other theaters that are in the same boat unless they've been retrofitted to those recliners at which point getting seats is going to be tough. You can't get lost here...there's only 4 theaters and 4 different movies showing at any given moment. C O N C E S S I O N You have your typical popcorn and boxed candies. The workers are nice though they're not very good about really packing the popcorn and over filling it :) I do love a popcorn. The buttering machines are on the side which I don't use but my family does. They don't have extra containers so feel free to bring your own so you can share you popcorn as a lot of folks come in with a huge family. M O V I E S Like I mentioned...with only 4 theaters, you have slim selection or you miss the movie just in a blink of an instant if there's new movies coming out. At least you know the movies won't be stale! You'll always need to be on top of it if you like seeing movies in theaters. O V E R A L L Since you can get Costco discount on tickets, it's not a bad option. Though being the only option seems to be cornering the market here. It's something I know our family looks forward to yearly but I do wish they made it feel a bit cleaner than it appears. I really do hope they don't retrofit to recliners as this will really limit seating option and just increase prices. read more

My movie experience was ruined because of a girl with pink hair working at the concessions. When I arrived to the theater at 10:15 pm, I was told they would only be giving out popcorn for the next 45 minutes. So, I decided to get a large instead of an XL in case I didn't finish my popcorn in the next 45 minutes. I wasn't going to pay extra for an XL if I couldn't get a refill. I did finish my popcorn within 45 minutes. A girl with pink hair wouldn't let me pay $2 to upgrade my large popcorn to an XL so I could get a refill. She said I would have to pay for another large popcorn, which would be ridiculous. So, I sat through my whole movie hungry for more popcorn that I would've had to pay another $10 for (after originally paying for my large). They were probably going to throw all that popcorn away at the end of their shift, which is especially frustrating. read more

Theater 5 is like an inverted Box Car, it has no AC, but rather a Bedroom Sized Oscillating Tower Fan standing in the Entryway, blowing in a bit of Lobby air. I'm sure it's a Fire Safety Violation, the cord a tripping hazard in the Fire Exit. It was like 95 Degrees in the upper seats. Also, the seats are about as comfortable as folding chairs. Prices for concession are Ridiculous; $5.00 for water. The XD Theater, while having slightly better seats, had the same Oscillating Fan with a cord you had to step over to get in and out. WTF? If there was a fire, everyone would trip and pile up blocking the Exit, This Has Happened in theaters before! If you go, pick a seat near the screen, (and the Fire Exit) because in the seats near the top, you can feel the Sun Baking you through the ceiling and there is Zero Air Movement. It smells like mold, and other stinky things in there! I believe the Management is limiting your AC comfort and Safety, to save money while charging a Premium Price. Helena needs a New Modern Movie Theater! read more

What happened to the butter for the popcorn? Just flavorless grease. Bummer. Water down coke too. Do not suggest either 1. Bummer

Ok had some problems trying to see a movie, but got in no problem today. The manager was pretty cool

Love this theater! Friendly staff. Comfortable seats clean and attractive facilities

We are regulars and love the place expect my husband cinemark points for the past two years have not been accredited spoke with a supervisor whom said it would be resolved last month and still didn't last time we where there talked to him he promised to get to the bottom of it we go in at least 4-5 a month over the last two years every ticket and food purchased point missing when it's resolve I'll update and give 5 stars read more

The theater is nice and clean, as well as the bathrooms. The screens, sound and staff are great, but literally EVERY single time I go there there are people talking through the entire movie. I realize that it's not the fault of the staff, but it ruins the experience enough to where I'd rather wait to watch it at home in dvd. My husband and I have complained multiple times but it's obviously hard to have a staff member standing there the entire movie. read more

Awesome 3D theater and movie! Chairs are a little small. Good thing we're thin. Clean bathroom and theater and nice people working there! Went in for the first showing and got the early bird price. 2 adults for a 3D movie only $17.50! Awesome price!! And Go see "Edge of tomorrow" 5 read more

How do you rate a movie theater... the staff has always been friendly, but it gets 5 stars because it has always been clean when I watch a movie! read more

Never enough concession help. 10 minute wait is not uncommon. They need to upgrade the seats also.

The staff is wonderful!! I had issues with a fandango gift card working due to the fact I didn't know you had to get the tickets on fandangos website and then when I did everything on my phone it wouldn't even let me buy them for the movie time I wanted to attend. The man at the ticket counter handled it fantastically!!! Quality customer service where they could have said too bad for you and I am truly impressed. Also the place was clean and the seats were comfy! read more

We were very disappointed to find that you no longer offer military discounts to family members and military retirees. This action indicates that you do not fully support the military, to offer the discount only to AD military hurts military families. Thru the FT Bliss facebook page and other means we intend to spread this new information regarding this theater. In a time when the military and their families sacrifice so much for you and this country for you to change this discount is not going to set well with most military members. To not offer the discount to military retirees is also a slap in the face, Remember military retirees gave up many years in order to keep your company and this country safe. read more

Awesome experience! I am from Great Falls , MT, and I now drive 70 miles to this theater for the big movies. The XD screen is an amazing experience,; the seats are roomy and comfortable, and the picture and sound is awesome. Even their regular screens are great, all with stadium seating. Every time we go there , the concessions have been fresh, tasty, and cheaper than Carmike's in Great Falls. The whole theater seems to to be well maintained and clean, and the staff attentive and friendly. read more
