CinemaWest Beach Cities 4DX, ScreenX & Giant Screen with Laser

“The Baseline: For a movie theater the seats must be comfortable/clean, the condition of the theater must be up-kept/maitained, the concessions must have good movie offerings, and the extra-film-types (3D,4D, IMAX,etc.) must work when available. Theater: CinemaWest Beach Cities is a relatively new theater that has reopened the old Arclight theater that closed pre-pandemic. CinemaWest has done a great job revamping the space. The lobby is clean and open, the seats are comfortable recliners, and the screen projector quality is clear, and the sound is really crisp. Bathrooms were clean. Food: The concessions are still great with a good selection of snacks, popcorn, and sodas along with the incorporation of Pink’s Hotdogs for hotdog and burger offerings. Service: The staff at the theater were friendly and efficient.”

“I highly recommend this movie theatre. My family and I have been coming here for almost year and it’s our go to place . It’s impeccably clean, recliners are amazing and their membership is top tier . I pay $20 a month and I get 2 tickets per month plus 20 percent off concessions, also tickets roll over if u don’t use them…. I also like that they offer $5 Tuesdays and $5 mystery movies at random . Great place for a date night or family night . Two enthusiastic thumbs up 👍👍”

“There is a Pink’s right in the lobby so you can grab a dog before heading into the theater. The theater was incredibly clean and the seats are comfortable recliners. The only thing that bothers me is that when you recline, the food tray is in your eye line. That might not bother others but I couldn’t ignore it and that detracted from my experience.”

“It was an interesting experience. Watch F1 movie in 4 DX. For this movie all the movement worked as it made me feel as if you are driving the car with the wind blowing through your hair. The movie theater was clean and not full at all. The lobby is spacious and plenty of seating. Pinks is located inside the theater with seating inside and outside. Paid about $25 for the 4DX experience.”
