The staff members were fine, but certainly not the friendliest I've experienced. I must also comment that the service issues in the theater were less than ideal, so some sort of signage or easy wifi hookup would have been great (or at least friendlier stall to point this out and provide more patience while pulling up tickets...). Would we return? 100%. Our favorite movie theater experience in LA? Not quite, but I certainly prefer this over a mega theater corporation for at least double the price.

I also think it's really cool - in theory - that they show older movies in 70mm. Went with a friend to watch T2 and had a great time. The big downside is that the film quality was quite poor. I'm sure restorers and projectionists were doing the absolute best with what they had, and the 70mm print was simply very degraded. That said, there were frequent jumps where 2-5 seconds of movie would be cut out, consistent sound quality issues, and noticeable tearing and lines all over the picture. If you're seeing something in 70mm here, you're seeing it to appreciate the history and preservation quality of film, not because you expect the print to be high quality. Didn't bother me too much, but want to warn people who might come to a film screening expecting movie-theatre-quality visuals and sound. They're heroically doing the best with what they have, but at least for this print, what they had was very uneven. Still a great time, and excited to return to catch more of their programming!

I also saw a Monsters: The Ed Gein Story screening with Charlie Hunnam and Ian Brennan - just to name a couple cool things I've experienced here. Staff is always very well organized and friendly! Snacks are always abound and popcorn is tasty here. I can comfortably sit in the seats for a few hours for the movie and Q&As after. Temperature in the theater is signature movie theater cold so bring a sweater but it's not unbearably so. Parking can be hit or miss but sometimes you'll luck out with a spot in meter parking on the street! Arriving early always helps. Overall, I love coming to movies at Aero Theatre for their organization and seamlessly good experiences.

It's been a long time since I've been to the movies, especially a place like this. I've been to…read morethis type of luxury theatre many years ago and it's definitely a good way to treat yourself. My son has been wanting to see Devil Wears Prada 2 and the first one is one of his favorite movies of all time. Personally, I don't like that movie but I went along with him. Tickets are $25 each and they have a $4 parking garage, but we were lucky enough to get a free after-hour meter on the street. It's a nice place and it seems like comfort is their top priority. The recliner chairs are extremely comfy and come with a blanket in case you get cold. You know how movie theaters are always chilly. Once you get settled, you can press a button that sends an employee over to take your order. It's completely optional. We got one small popcorn (light butter, $6) which was big enough for both of us. I like this idea of having the option of ordering and dining at your seat while watching a movie, but the reality is a bit different. It's kind of annoying to see the employees coming and going when someone needs a refill or places a new order during the movie. You can hear them talking and they can even block your view. It's frustrating when you are trying to focus. With that being said, I think it has more pros than cons. There are bars and bathrooms located across the several floors and the one we went to was exceptionally clean. I probably wouldn't go out of my way to come back to this theatre. I prefer something more standard like AMC or Pacific Theatres (RIP!)...

I was very disappointed by my recent experience at IPIC Westwood. After the movie, I briefly needed…read moresomewhere to sit while waiting for my family due to mobility limitations related to Multiple Sclerosis. The first-floor lobby had no seating at all, despite the theater branding itself as a luxury, comfort-focused experience. I politely asked if I could sit for a few minutes in the empty restaurant seating area, which was completely unused at the time, and was repeatedly told no due to "policy." While I understand policies exist, I was surprised that no reasonable accommodation or alternative seating was offered for a disabled patron who was simply waiting for family. What upset me most was not just the lack of accessibility-minded accommodations, but the dismissive attitude I encountered from several employees and the difficulty I had even obtaining the manager's name. For a theater that emphasizes comfort and premium service, I expected far more compassion, professionalism, and awareness regarding accessibility needs.

I've been here three times in the past couple of months, and I won't be returning. Two issues kept…read morecoming up every visit: 1) Popcorn quality is consistently bad. At a recent showing, I ordered the Culver Combo and the popcorn was almost entirely small, crumbly fragments, the tiny broken bits you'd normally find at the very bottom of the bag. It was basically impossible to eat. I got a refill halfway through, assuming I'd just gotten the ends of a batch, but the replacement scoop from a fresh machine was no better. On top of the texture, the popcorn also just doesn't taste good. it had a slightly burnt taste every single time. 2) About an hour into every movie, it becomes obvious there's no AC or fan running. I wouldn't be surprised if a CO2 monitor showed elevated levels. I've flagged this to staff on all three visits, and each time turning on the AC fixed it immediately, but it's never on by default. Sitting in a hot, stale theater for two hours is genuinely unpleasant, and the difference in air quality the moment you step into the hall is obvious. I really want to like this theater, it's a local business and I'd rather support it than a big chain but I won't be returning unless these issues are addressed/fixed.

But I am SO GLAD I was recently afforded the opportunity to finally check it out when I was granted tickets to a screening/Q&A of Omaha. They only have 1 screen but I loved how it's a great balance between vintage + modern. Usually with the former, you expect uncomfortable seats but I found these to be quite comfortable, with plenty of legroom and good stacking of rows so that your view isn't compromised. The theater itself is spacious AND gorgeous in its own right. May sound silly but I also judge movie experiences considering concession - here, although there are only a couple of operators, they run the lines efficiently and their popcorn is fresh and tasty (even when the butter topping is administered on their end). I could see required street parking being a challenge but I haven't had an issue in the surrounding areas that time, or since. Yes, after this screening I signed up for the Landmark Theatres loyalty program because I knew I'd definitely be back. And already have, for another Q&A (the film Forge). I love that they screen indie films and extend opportunities like this for fairly reasonable prices.

The staff as a whole has gotten progressively better over time, and they pretty much have the food and beverage delivery to your seat process down packed.

Parking here is "Free 99", closer to the theater itself, and just downright more accommodating. That aspect alone will keep more people coming here.
