Well guys, after 4 years of not going to the movie theaters, Alamo Drafthouse Cinema was the…read moreperfect place to re-introduce myself with this amazing form of entertainment. My husband and I came here during one of their matinee hours for the Gladiator movie. Even though they were clearly understaffed, the folks working there made their best to make sure we were always good. I know the waiter working our room was also on other two, so I give him major props for keeping up with all of us. Also, all the food we had was delicious and can't wait to go back and have other items. I highly recommend this movie theatre for movie dates!

I decided to try and use some alamo drafthouse gift cards on this one. And I discovered Alamo…read moreDrafthouse makes its gift cards just about impossible to use. I was unable to order my tickets online. My gift cards showed a balance, but couldn't be used for checkout for unknown reasons. No worries, I'll just go with a less frequented movie that I don't wanna see as much, and wait in your lobby to order tickets for some random poor seats, like we used to do in the old-fashioned days. Once seated the gift cards can't be used to order food. For some reason, Drafthouse requires a credit card to do so within their app. But, you can leave your movie 20 minutes in, and order food from the lobby, and never see the waiter again for things such as refills on drinks or allegedly unlimited popcorn. I won't be buying Drafthouse gift cards from Costco again, because as far as I can tell, they're just some sort of Ponzi scheme to collect my credit card number, name, and other pertinent details. But, I don't think I'll be attending Drafthouse again at all, because gift cards aside their entire thing was providing you a waiter and getting your food during your movie, and they've managed to mess that up entirely.

This is my second time visiting Rainbow in Castroville…read more The first time, I came and saw Captain America: Brave New World during a Sunday showing, and it was cool. Cheap concessions, cheap tickets, minimal ads, and a good display. I love a cute local theater and it's great to see them show the big movies in a small theater. I went tonight with my parents, who were given a box seat, to see Toy Story 5. Upon arrival, we were escorted to our seats in the box and given a menu. The usher got us our popcorn and drinks and was attentive. The popcorn is that classic popcorn I love, and it was a great price for the tub. Tickets typically are $9, and the concessions prices aren't too shabby either. For 3 drinks and the popcorn tub, it was $20, which is a steal compared to your majors. My mom wasn't sold on the theater before we went vs a chain, but after attending, she wants to go every weekend. It's a great addition to this small town. RIYL: big screens in the small town

What a great small town theater! They have an upstairs balcony that also holds their VIP seating…read more(membership required). The seats are very comfortable, a little tall so it's harder to see if you are on the shorter side. They do have bins that can be placed on the seats as a booster but I'd bring a pillow or something instead, it would be more comfortable. Make sure to bring a jacket or blanket, as like all of the theaters I've been to in the San Antonio area it was very cold. Snacks for purchase, soda and beer in cans, fresh popcorn of course!

Was able to catch an early afternoon Rom-Com movie, "Solo Mio" on a Saturday. We entered the lobby…read moreand you have to have a bag-check. It's been awhile since I've been to this theater and remembered that the reclining seats weren't as comfortable as Alamo Drafthouse's. Well I think they had a remodel since then because the seats were very cushiony, seemed newer as the seats weren't worn down and the width of the seats and spacing between seats seemed ample enough that you're not going to bump your neighbor. The tray tables are also well-placed so that your table isn't impeding your view. I think it was well-designed. It was a smaller theater with only 5 rows but the terraced rows were low enough that someone walking in the lower row won't impede your view as well. The theater wasn't super cold as some places are where I'm using a hoodie and jacket in the middle of summer. Folks in line and around us still brought their blankets, LOL! To note, there's a $5 Santikos ticket deal where you can buy these tickets during the last few showings of a featured movie. They're only available for purchase at the theater according to the onscreen ad. Concession stands are downstairs and there's a bar. The screen showed a clip where you can order your food and have it brought to you for a small service fee. There was also a message of knowing where to exit and being vigilant with your surroundings or something to that effect. It's always good to be street-smart these days. After the movie, we exited and there was a Sheriff's Deputy that was outside and looking at his phone. I figured he was going to be on guard today or perhaps the weekend since a major world event occurred today that I expected ramped up security in public places.

Saw the Minecraft movie here. And the theatre was super clean. Bathrooms amazing. I love that this…read moreplace has movie memorabilia. We had popcorn, extra butter, and a freestyle soda, diet cherry vanilla Dr Pepper. The ticket taker was super nice and understood we had a larger group coming in. The concession stand gentleman was super quick. The clean up crew was very quiet entering the movie towards the end and I enjoyed this theatre.
