Since the renovation, the service is better than before. Reserved seating is a nice change but I wish it was touch screen (not a deal breaker though). Popcorn and drinks always seems fresh even at the last showing. Still looks like there are continuing renovations being done. In a small town like Clovis, NM a good movie theater is a must and North Plains is striving to reach that goal. Keep it up please.

The non-3d movies are flickering a couple times a second for anyone with polarized light sensitive vision. Its very headache inducing, though most people cant see the flicker... Edit: Went back a year later, The Flickering Is Still There and now the whole theater room is this abhorrent blue light before the movie starts as an extra bonus!! Go see movies in Lubbock instead, so many actually awesome theaters there!! This might be my last time at this place... Ow...

This is a local theatre. I love that it sells pickles. There are only a few theatres, but they are normally showing popular movies in the box office.I do not like when they have two theatres showing the same movie when they don’t have another popular movie. I feel they could use the space for other movies.Rarely shows independent films or alternative films. It is mostly just the popular movies.

Ive lived here my whole life and the renovations are really nice. Compared to larger cities it isnt great but with great change come great sacrifice like the $ of tickets. I do love the renovations. I would expect within the next several years there will be a complete renovation with new building etc. I actually really like the reserved seating except when someone joins us last minute. Snacks are horribly expensive but thats expected. I do wish the new seating would have the reclining feature but thats not deal breaker for me because I love movies!!

Old stale popcorn, Movie not positioned on the screen correctly and the lights were on the entire movie.

Small theater screens (the projector overlapped the screen for a while), old (non reclining, cloth) seats and very dirty overall. Yet they charge $7 a ticket. Theyre price gouging the people of Clovis because theyre the only theater for 100 miles.They also do not give military discount despite being located so close to Cannon AFB. As far as refreshments, they charge .50 for a very small cup of water. Our movie didnt start until long after it was supposed to. Would not recommend, just make the trip to either Amarillo or Lubbock for a much better movie going experience.

Much improved with new flooring and decent seating. You wont get reclining seats like you will in many other theaters, but the ticket prices here are a bit lower. Glad they have this theater in the area.

Review №10

They did renos but the seats are still very gross and Im honestly not sure what they changed. It has a lot of potential being wasted. They could keep business in town if they upgraded. We see movies more often in Amarillo because its a cleaner, smells better, and is more comfortable

Review №11

Went to see Zombieland 2. Great service and great theater seats. They are using a new system so you have to pick seats before you go into the movie. Different but worked.

Review №12

The prices were way too high for the subpar quality of the theater. $7 for a matinee ticket and the flooring was ripped up throughout; whole place was clearly under construction. Overall the theater was dirty and the seats were ripped. Popcorn was cold and stale. High prices are to be expected at movie theaters but they charge way too much for their horrible, gross theater. Would not recommend. Also they did not show ads or anything on the screen while we were waiting for the movie to start. Just awkward silence. Horrible experience. Would not come again.

This place is disgusting. Save yourself the hassle and drive to Lubbock to watch a movie. Trust me, it will be worth it

Unless youre willing to make the drive to Lubbock, its the only Movie Theater available in Clovis. Its not awful, but there is much to be desired in terms of cleanliness and managment. (The employees are very friendly, but more often than not, I do see some employees being belittled in the workplace during rush. I wont mention any names.)I have traveled often, and I will say the price for a ticket is cheap in comparison to your average theater, and the food is, yes, expensive, but if you didnt know, thats how theaters actually make their money. (To dumb it down, the money from tickets go to the people who make the movies. Concession money goes to the Theater.)I can only hope that these 5-star reviews are written with only a good heart, because in actuality, this theater is AT BEST a 2 star theater. They are making improvements to the Theater (which is well overdue), but if anything, what this Theater really needs is new seats. Word of advice, use a flashlight and check your seats in this Theater. You definatly dont want to ruin your sub-par Theater experience by sitting on some unknown substance.I take my time in writing these reviews given Ive spent some considerable time in Clovis, but do always find myself out of the City. There is a lot to be desired from this Theater. This Town is growing in population, and there is no excuse to lower standards for the soul purpose of this being a Small Town. I do look forward to seeing this Theater being improved. It is the ONLY one in Town after all.

Its not the worst theater Ive ever been to. Its a bit small, but for Clovis it is fitting. The staff if friendly and the prices are great.

Review №16

We just moved into the area and were surprised that this was the only theater around. We went early in the morning when there wasn’t many people. The staff was nice, prices were CHEAP compared to cinemas back home so we were super excited about that. The only thing that was unattractive was the fact that there were paint buckets, ladders and boxes in front of the theater screen...it looked tacky and unprofessional. The seats were also very uncomfortable since they didn’t recline.

Review №18

I was told by the woman at the ticket counter that I cant take my backpack into the movie. I considered asking if women have to leave their purses or handbags out too. Got my money back. Ambiance wasnt much to write home about anyway. Turns out its the only theater in town. They definitely need competition.

Review №25

The new thing about purchasing your tickets and snacks at the same time is not working for me. Its wayyyy too slow-takes too long, especially if you already have your tickets. Have to wait even longer to get ur snacks cause you have to wait for the people in front of u to come to an agreement on where they want to sit. Have to come up with a better system. Takes too long even for the matinee. The theater itself is getting updated and is looking nice. Friendly staff, but can tell they dont like the new system either.

Review №30

This place is run down and old. There are practically no employees around. The seats are terribly uncomfortable, the lights are way too bright while the film is playing and the sound is the worst. It sounds like a busted speaker turned up to full volume. I will not return here ever and do not recommend it at all.

Review №31

It is really inconvenient to purchase your tickets and snacks at the same place. You still have to wait in a really long line just to get snacks if you have your tickets. There is really no benefit to buying your tickets beforehand.

Review №38

Theatre screen 3 has a pretty good gash in it right in the center of the screen and the wall mounted lights flickered. The carpets were disgusting. The seats smell of stale musty fart. The entire theatre is in need of a remodel but they are the only movie theater within 100 miles and have grown complacent. Real shame too I used to enjoy the movies. Also, dont even bother with the popcorn.

An
Review №39

Love that they finally did some upgrades to the theater!You can actually choose your seating selection before purchasing your tickets now and also you can see when you walk in to find your seat and to leave with the added lighting.I used to hate trying to find a seat and to leave because it was like being in a dark cave!

Review №40

I go to the movies often, The renovation is not very movie goer friendly after the renovation where is the color. Also, What is up with the seating. we had to choose our seat when we purchased out tickets, I had to sit next to a person that kind of had an odor, I would have sat closer to the screen had I known or had the option.. Please go back to regular seating, not too sure if I will be going to the opening of any movie if I have to choose my seat before entering the theater.

Review №41

We lived in Clovis for a year... a great year for movies. Thor, Spider-man, Wonder Woman, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. But did we watch all of these great movies at this terrible, disgusting theater? Nope we drove 2 hours to go to a REAL theater. Who ever owns this place should be ashamed. The prices are ridiculous (its cheaper to go to the Imax in Lubbock if you are military). My wife and I went twice thankfully to not a blockbuster, and were reminded each time of what a waste of money it was. The sound in the theaters is awful! Most of the scenes were hard to watch because it looked like either the screen was dirty, or the light in the projector was dying. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! Whoever owns this, you charge so much why cant you at least update the venue?

Review №47

POSSIBLE THEFT, and the owner refuses to help:Yesterday on Sunday, 5/19/2019, at 4:15PM I went to watch Pokemon Detective Pikachu at this theater. I was the last person out of the theater, as I was waiting for any post-credits scenes. Upon leaving, I had forgotten an expensive jacket in the seat next to me. I returned a couple hours later and asked if any employees had seen it. They said they had not, and denied me entry into the theater room to check for it,as there was a viewing already in progress. (This is totally understandable)Today, 5/20/19 at 3:45PM I returned to the theater, asked the gentleman at the front desk if they found it, and he said no. He did, however, kindly offer for me to check the theater for it. I searched the area I sat and could not find it.I was on lunch break for my job, so I left to get food and I returned to the theater at 4:10PM. This time I kindly asked the woman at the front for a manager or the owner. She went into his office, came back, and told me he would be out shortly. I waited for around 5 minutes and he came out of the office.Upon seeing him, I kindly stuck my hand out for a handshake and introduced myself. He looked at my very disgustedly and barely touched my hand to shake it.I described the situation to him and he instantly became defensive, interrupting me to tell me I dont know what to tell you, if you left it you left it.I asked him in all fairness sir, does your crew clean up after each viewing?, And he responded with yes, every time. I told him in that case, I fear that your employees may have grabbed it without turning it in, as I was the last person out of the theater. He became even more visibly frustrated at this point, telling me Im taking the side of my employees!. I asked if him and his crew could keep an eye out for it and call me if it is seen. His employee kindly handed me a pen and paper and said he would keep an eye out if I gave him a number and description.The owner got even more frustrated at this point, and began walking away from me as I spoke to him, not giving me a chance to finish. I finally told him Look sir, my intent is not to accuse your employees, im just- and he cut me off to say Yes you are! And shut his door on me. I looked at his two employees, who both made shocked faces and didnt know what to say or do. I simply said that was absolutely unacceptable, and I left the building.The owner/manager should always be open to customer complaints and inquiries, wether they agree with them or not. I showed complete and absolute politeness in this instance, and I was treated with absolute disrespect.Not to mention he blatantly told me he was going to favor his employees word over mine. This is a VERY dangerous precedent for an owner to set, as it allows employees to get away with whatever they like, as the owner has stated he would favor them first.All in all, I have had my jacket removed from the theater by, what would presumably be, an employee cleaning up after the movie viewing. The owner refuses to aid in any search for it or check time stamps on cameras. He has blatantly told me he believes his employees over me.

The quality of the movie itself was fine, but this place is the only theater in a 90-mile radius, and cares very little about its appearance. Dingy and torn carpeting, sticky theater floors and chairs and rusty bathroom stalls can all be found here. Tickets and concessions are overpriced, and they charge you 50 cents for a cup of water. I typically wait for movies to be available to rent or I go to the movies when Im in Albuquerque because this theater is such a bad experience.

Had to try the movie theater in Clovis... I dont think we will be back which is devastating for a movie buff like myself! My shoes literally stick to the carpet in the hallways, a clean movie theater I guess also includes popcorn and candy boxes under the seats, and I was more worried about keeping my head off the seats then whats happening on the screen. Ugh. Its the only place in town and youre losing a lot of money. Get this place clean, youll see a difference!

Prices are never posted. When you do get the price, it is different every time. If only there was another place! The price is outrageous for what you get. Im not trying the food or drinks because of how gross everything looks with dirt on it. A little update would be nice if youd like to keep people coming instead of driving two hours away.

Review №58

Second run movie theater at 1st run prices. The nearest competition is 100 miles away so this theater has no incentive to modernize projectors, seats, sound system, or really anything at all. Another depressing fact of living in Clovis. Just went to a clean theater with assigned seating and power recliner and paid less than Clovis charges. Glad I left this town. Like 20% of town, this building needs bulldozed and replaced as well.

I was very dissapointed today! I took my son to see Halloween for his birthday. We arrived at 11:00 to see the 11:15 show. I understand things happen, thatstlife. But the previews showed at least 4 times. I look at my clock and its now 12:00 and no one has came in to tell us whats going on. The movie kept starting and going off. I talked to the manager about doing anything for the hour we had to wait and still no movie played. He said they were having a bad day. I understand bad days happen but he could at least gave us a gift card or something for all the time wasted out of my day. We went early because we had to be somewhere after the movie. Our money was refunded and they said to come back another time. So dissapointed...

I go to this theater frequently, as it is the only one in town. Usually I do not have any problems, but I recently lost a set of keys and decided that would call the theater to see if I left them there. Seems like a good idea. BUT, when you call to ask them a question, they only have a press #1 option to listen to the movie times, but no option to talk to a person, not even an option to leave a message! I find it very annoying that I have to take a special trip down there to see if they have my keys. I understand that the employees are busy, but the manager really needs to make sure that he is meeting the customers needs.

I fully agree with previous reviews mentioning the horrible sound. If you sit anywhere near the front ten to fifteen rows you will be treated to ear splitting treble.Theaters themselves are in serious need of update. Dirty seats, filthy floors and walls are the norm. It reminds me of dollar theaters Ive visited in the past.The citizens of clovis deserve better service. At the very least, ticket prices should be substantially reduced.

Review №98

We bought tickets online but they oversold the movie and our seats so we were not allowed in the theatre. We were not allowed a refund and when we asked if we could buy tickets to another movie they said no because they were now closed. There was a group of Caucasian females who were allowed in after asking many times. But My friends and I are of African American descent and we were denied service.
