So Ive been here several times and this is normally the theater I go to for any movie I really want to see due to the IMAX screens and sound. Amazing experience everytime I come here. The seats are comfortable but not the biggest in town. Their snack bar is A+ and has all the movie essentials. They even have a small area to purchase blankets and other movie themed items.Starbucks!!! So this theater has a Starbucks right inside. Ive never been to play in the arcade but seems like a decent one and the children and adults in there seemed to enjoy it.Over all a great movie going experience everytime and never have any issues

This place is awesome. Their super clean and constantly wiping down surface areas. You also have to purchase your tickets online. Also, If you want concessions you have to use a card or if you have cash they can put it on a gift card. Hope this helps.

All in all it is a great and well run establishment. There is a few major places they have severely dropped the ball. Implicating social distancing to make guests feel safe is understandable but not when you have them all in a line smashed into the front to only be checked in by one employee with a really slow ticket validation process. Get more employees to receive your guests before a movie so were not waiting forever and bunched up during a pandemic. But the most important and serious issue: You have 6 icee dispensers and only 2 flavors working. Cherry and blue poop. Unacceptable. It doesnt require nuclear fusion to run a frozen beverage machine. All your beer taps worked fine.

Post covid19 the theater is a bit different. The lines seems longer and prices are higher but there are far less people. The auditoriums are half full and everyone is wearing mask but it was really nice to go to the movies again and its good too see the theater doing what it can to keep everyone safe. It does suck that you cant get a refill on the large popcorn anymore.

Place has been really clean and workers were very safety minded. Only problem was the sound was like a car with no back speakers. Made the movies sound off.

Great place to bring the family. You do need to by a gift card from the front vender to by food if you were planning on paying cash but it was no problem. The chairs were so comfortable and were reclining.

Lots to like at this theater. I actually really liked the setup of the theater concessions. Make your selections, a lot of which are self service. Then it all funnels to checkout cashiers. I didnt go when it was really busy so the lines may be long to check out during a big premier. The theater itself was nice with the reclining chairs. Love those. Hated the huge online checkout fee designed to get you to sign up for their membership club. So we went there a couple days in advance and purchased the tickets at the theater.

Friendly staff, tickets pretty inexpensive. Youll need to take out a loan for snacks though.Theaters themselves are clean and the reclining seats are extremely comfortable. Overall an extremely pleasant experience.

Review №18

Nice theater. I dont know if they have new managers but the snack bar needs attention. The last several visits the soda machines have been either out of order or out of ice causing longer lines at the ones that are functioning. The lines at the popcorn and/or register have also been long. Seem they dont have enough employees and I have seen the managers walking around but dont seem worried. This was never a problem when we first started coming to this theater approximately a year ago.

Review №19

Ive seen 100+ movies over the years at this theater. The owners/management have done an excellent job of steadily improving upon this theater throughout those years. Many of the improvements Im sure were lost on me. However some of the improvements that were not lost on me include: the soda machines being upgraded to the kind that allow customization of drinks, the addition of a bar, and best of all, the replacement of the cramped old chairs with the spacious new recliners.Im already looking forward to watching another movie here. Now if Hollywood could just make better movies...

Been going here since 2014, always clean, I do enjoy the Starbucks and usually order fountain drinks, Rootbeer. Great service, good people, matinee prices are spectacular. Those recliners make the difference in the enjoyment in comfort of the experience of each movie.

Century 16 is our favorite movie theater.. the recliners are awesome. Since we love movies, we joined their movie club, which for about $9.00 a month, offers substantial savings on both movies and concessions. Also, we get a free movie each month, and these roll over to the next month if we dont use them.

Service is in a timely manner. Menus are nice and organized. Plenty to offer for drinks and snacks. Definitely the defining detail are the reclining chairs! They’re comfortable and different. The theaters seem to be well kept. Overall great experience. Will return.

Review №25

Nice theater with reclining seats (note that the IMAX theater seats do not recline. They’re still roomy and comfortable, though). Concessions are pricey, but that’s nothing new no matter the theater chain. Want to pay less at the concession stand? Then join Movie Club and get a 20% discount on your concession items. I like that the seats are reserved; been waiting for that for years. Your best bet is to buy your tickets online in advance (if you’re a member of Movie Club the online ticket fees are waived). By purchasing your tickets online you’re much more likely to get seats you like rather than waiting to get your tickets at the theater.

I just moved to Corpus Christi (my old town had an inexpensive but rundown theater). I was blown away when I went to this place, it was so nice! Comfy, reclining chairs. I felt like a queen! Worth every penny. Will definitely come back soon.

Nice theater. The snack line needs a bit of reorganizing to make getting snacks faster. It took me 15 mins to get two sodas and popcorn. I know it was opening night of Frozen 2 but a theater should be set up for this sort of surge.

Really nice and new reclining seats. There are fewer seats in the theater now so ticket prices went up some to make up the difference. Really good experience.

Excellent view and seats for a not so good movie. Went here to see The Meg and while the movie was disappointing the theater was not. Stair step design gives everyone a good view. Snack bar good choices so bring lots of money cause it aint cheap.

Review №32

Always our preference for going to catch a movie. The lounge chairs are awesome. Only two things. 1. Dont close one side of your concessions. I got up to get a quick refill of popcorn and found a line of people. Took me longer to get back to my movie. Missed about 5 minutes. 2. Offer some more meal options. Wings, sandwich, burgers........I still love this place.

Review №38

I saw that they had reclining chairs and thought this would be great for my experience at the movies. I had reclining chairs at fat cats in Phoenix and they laid all the way back, plus you got your dinner brought to you by a very conscientious employee. These chairs here don’t recline all the way and they are a little bit old but it was still a very pleasant experience. The theaters are big and they are clean and I’ve never had a problem finding my seat

Review №41

Did not have a good experience, I had to leave due to a family emergency and was not refunded my tickets. I wasn’t asking for money back but a rain check so I could return to the theatre at my convenience. The manager MRS. Davila was not very helpful and kept repeating that the movie had already started so she could not give me a rain check when in reality only 3 previews had played. As a movie club member I was not pleased, I have been to century multiple times and have had great experiences but this one I will remember as my least favorite.

Review №42

I love the chairs in this theater. Theaters always feel cool. Early bird specials are awesome. Usually pay until $13 for two tickets. The only flaw there really noticeable is that the theaters are not always clean. The floor is often covered in popcorn. They do not do a good job at cleaning all the theaters but sometimes it is really clean. I suppose it depends on the staff working that day.

Went there to see Avengers: Endgame. Im pretty sure that they had every right to call the paramedics to escort me to the psych ward because when Sam told Captain America On Your Left... I believe I pretty much went insane in my seat... Oh. And they keep the place very clean too.. Theyre cool.

The seats are amazing and for an affordable price compared to places like California.The people were super helpful.They were always cleaning up which is definitely the sign of a great theater atmosphere; and I would know - I worked for one.They had Vegan options for all you candy lovers.There were plenty of options on drinks.

I didn’t live in the area before the upgrades; but I’m assuming that’s were most of the negative reviews are from.Overall, this movie theater has it all. Great show times (lots of them; obviously aimed for the big ticket items), great seating (even at the regular format, you get leather recliners), prices are adequate to the level of quality, great variety of snacks and concessions, clean facilities, friendly staff and much more.Since day one, this has been the go to. Wouldn’t change it.Keep it up!

Review №55

Holy in love with this place now! So before, yeah sure, this was a good theatre, always my chosen one. But when subscriptions started coming out and nee this and that I gravitated to other theatres for better promos at the time. Man did century come back with a fury! Luxury loungers, and $8.99/ month subscription, concession deals for members, I love it!! What I love even more is being able to reserve my ticket online and see if my favorite place is available ahead of time. It makes it so easy and convenient. I do hope they add the loungers to all of the theatres though, Im spoiled, and I would like to recline as much as possible! Overall I give it 5 stars, 2 thumbs up and whatever else you can for a job well done!

First time in this cinema, its very comfortable, there are a lot of rooms so you can choose very well what to see. Im only disappointed about the price of the drink, I know that there is the Coca-Cola freestyle but it is definitely too expensive, almost half the price of the ticket.

Review №61

Great theatre. Prices are on par with most theatres and the presentation isnt bad. The Imax screen is wonderful but I highly recommend you try to get a seat on the top or middle of the room. The bottom seats isnt the best experience. The seats were leather and cushioned and had some leaning action to them. Recommend if you wanna catch the latest blockbuster.

This is the go to theater in Corpus Christi. Reclining seats, need I say more! Food is great. Cleanliness is great. People going to the movies should dispose of their trash. Just cause someone is being paid to pick up after you is no excuse. Sound system is awesome.

Aside from the very comfortable seating, large vinyl upholstered seats with footrests and reclining backs, its a pretty standard experience. Tickets are a touch expensive, concessions are gold plated, but none of this is beyond the norm for this kind of cinema. IMAX projectors are superb.

This place is really good, but if it were up to me I’d definitely choose Alamo draft house theaters you can order food and have servers bring it to you so you don’t have to get up during your movie and miss it there food is so delicious they even got ”alcohol“ and there burgers are so juicy and delicious if I could I would go there everyday Thank you for reading my statement.

We went to see a movie here and had a wonderful movie experience. We got popcorn and sodas and went to see the new Madea movie. It was hilarious!! Navigating the food court is an ordeal but once you get the logistics down you are good to go. Ladies don’t take big purses or you will be checked!! The restrooms are nice and clean!! Concession prices are high so be forewarned!! There is a senior ticket so if the shoe fits check out this lower price. Have fun!!!

Good theater. One of the top two in the city (tie first together with Alamo). Recent upgrades with better seats and you can buy a beer which is great advantage. Close to my heart with the classics series and Oscar movie week every year. In the hallway there is also an arcades section. Clean, good screens, good audio! Shity online booking fees

I hadnt been to the theater in quite a while. Love the seats. Saw the Lion King with several family members. Only think was that the machines were out of ice, slushies, & drinks in some. Took a while to get our stuff because everyone was lined up on the only machine that was working.

They dont serve ice cream cones anymore. Only milkshakes. They still serve alcohol until 11pm but not straight hard liquor anymore. Frozen burbon and cola and margaritas. I like the recliner seating. Mostly all the theater rooms have them. They are disabled seating friendly. Tge rise of Skywalker was an ok movie. Most of the original characters are now out of the franchise. The end of an era is near for this franchise.

This is a great movie theater. It offers many concession options with the same high Movie concession prices but they are good. More importantly, it has comfortable Stadium recliner seating. The projection and sound is very good plus the theater is kept clean. I would recommend purchasing your tickets early as this is a popular movie theater. Enjoy the show!

Review №94

Going to a movie at this theater is joy. We buy our tickets online ahead of time, select our seats at ticket purchase, and walk right into the theater with our printed tickets. No standing around at a movie ticket office, fighting for seats, or having to arrive 30 to 45 minutes early just to get a decent seat. Really nice! Moreover, the leather, extra-large, motor-reclined seats are awesome! My only gripe is that the line for concession was extremely long - I passed on getting a soda after checking the line twice prior to the start of the movie. But overall, a great experience.
