Best theatre Ive ever been to! Soo amazing and HUGE! Usually come here at night, theres always extra seats, no need to sit elbow to elbow and the screen is gigantic, probably 3 + xs the size of a regular theatre screen. Its like watching a movie from a balcony. Great place for a date and then enjoy sunset strip.

Spacious interiors - large tall foyer makes for a grand feeling as you enter. To purchase tickets, head towards the tablets propped up on tables. Easy to print tickets, no hassles.There’s a nice dining selection with lots of great local beers and wines. Craft brews and all the candy you could want during a movie. Bar area is modern and a great place to wait for friends or catch up with friends.Seats are nice, it costs about $16 to watch a movie here. Reserved seating, which is nice.Park in the lot on top of Trader Joe’s and walk over, or park next to the Bank of America, no specific theatre parking here.

This theater was an absolutely fabulous experience. Theres a full-service cocktail bar, snacks and treats bar, the purchasing of the tickets for entire group was fast and easy.there are at least nine different theatres to choose from and picking different movies. The in theater experience was wonderful with stadium style seating so that everybody can see no matter where you are in the theater.the screens were super wide, and there was an attendant to announce the movie and protocol and procedure for in movie emergencies or needs.

Its a pretty nice theater. They are trying the upscale thing with beer and wine and somewhat fancier food but you can tell its a rework of a more traditional theater. The chairs are very normal (but comfy enough) however they dont match the $17.50 ticket price.I personally was very unhappy that the place lacks any kind of nachos or movie cheese. Is that kind of petty? Yes, but for me its a staple of the experience if theyre going to offer pretzels and all that. They try and get away with having a jalapeno stuffed pretzel but dont be fooled.Anyway, the projectors are nice, its not packed, and you can pick your seats. All in all, not bad, but if they added the cheese id prob pop off on a five star. The price thing is just Culver being Culver and the seat arm rests go up so its cool.

Clean, peaceful, have great snacks and drinks, and they will validate your parking. You have confirmed assigned/reserved seats. Good locations with a lot of surrounding restaurants. I will be back.

Good Cinema with assigned seating and all the usual top listed films. A few parking garages bear by that validate with the cinema for approximately ~3 hours. They have the usual pop corn, hot dogs, and candy. The theatre also serves alcohol and soft drinks.

I had never been to an ArcLight but its a very cool experience. They give you large tickets and it all feels very retro. I saw a matinee so the theatre was almost empty. Even though the film wasnt great, I had a good experience watching it. This particular theatre is also situated in a very pleasant part of Culver City.

Delightful little place. A little on the pricier side but if you are looking for a romantic ambiance or just a quiet evening of self-appreciation, this is the place to go. Great movie selection, plenty of secrets to discover.

Review №14

This isnt my favorite ArcLight location for the reason of confusion over location and lack of parking. The best place to park ended up being at a garage nearby that you could get validation for, but I had to drive around for a while to figure that out. Then the movie theater itself was hard to locate after parking. Im glad I got there early. In other respects, its a good movie theater, though.

Good theater. Frequently has interesting films that arent playing other places. I appreciate that its a little cheaper than the Landmark and now has reserved seating. Its much nicer since its become an Arclight.

Review №16

Friendly staff, great decor. Not the cheapest theater in town but you do have the opportunity to get dinner and drinks ion the lobby, reserve your seats, and an overall older audience. The plaza was beautiful. Parking was a little bit of a hassle, but we ultimately got a good spot thanks to Google maps.

Review №17

Nice bar and lobby. You can only order tickets at the computer kiosks so I recommend purchasing them online. The auditoriums are a little small compared to other arclight cinemas but Im guessing that is due to their small footprint. People there are kind and accommodating. Certainly will come back!

Review №26

Arclight theaters are FANTASTIC! They are a step above most other theaters. If you want everything to be perfect for that movie you want to see go to the Arclight. An employee introduces each movie and stays for the first few minutes to make sure the picture and sound quality is perfect. No one is admitted into the Theatre the minute that the movie starts to prevent others from being interrupted during the movie. Three hours free parking in Culver City at the parking structures at Culver Blvd and Cardiff Bl across the street from the Arclight and the structure by Trader Joes. Full bar in lobby too.

Proud Mary Movie Premier Party and Womens Network Event was phenomenal and we had the Co-Producer, Andrea Ajemian, as a special guest to the screening. Arclight has cocktails, appetizers, a great atmosphere and awesome and friendly staff. An experience you must have!

Review №31

Great picture and sound quality once youre in the no-frills seat, but they wont sell you a ticket for a film 15 minutes after the published showtime, and they usually only show 3 or 4 trailers max. Service has been poor on more than one occasion, sad to say.

Review №34

Pretty straight forward. Went to see the latest Star Wars. Tickets were acquired through Fandango before going. There you can pre-purchase tickets and choose your seats. While the show and seating were great, I am a bit disappointed with the crazy pricing. We are a family of 4 and it was nearly $100 to see a 2.5hr movie! Just rediculous. It is not worth it to see any movie in big screen anymore for that price.

Review №47

After having lived in Texas most of my life it was nice to go to a large auditorium like those that are found in California when one goes to the movies. I was shocked that I went to a matinee to see Matt Damon in the movie The Martian and the ticket was more than $15. Concession prices at any movie theater are always very high but these were triple what I encountered in Texas and that is just ridiculous. I understand the cost of living in California is much higherthen most places but this was almost too much to imagine for a family of four or five wanting to go to the movie and get something to eat and drink before hand. The projection and sound quality were quite good and the seats were very comfortable but the movie was oversold and I had to fight to find a seat just for myself.

Love to watch movies at this place, specially if you end up in the round theater. Very interesting that staff member will come to the front before the movie and announce a few things, as if it is a live theater. The gift shop has nice items but a bit pricey. I wish it was a bit bigger and carried more things. There are also some shops and restaurants in the same complex. The sushi place is really good.

Unpleasant experience, bad customer service, confusing. Took me 15 minutes to find out where to buy the tickets. Asked the front and they started making fun of me. They said its only for snacks. The janitor was the only nice guy, hope he gets a promotion.

ArcLight Cinemas in Culer City are a solid choice for your movie going experience. The place was remodeled a couple years ago and currently have comfy seating, fantastic sound and a upgraded menu at the snack bar. The staff is nice and friendly and any movie theater I can get a beer while watching is a good choice in my book!

This is a clean and somewhat attractive theater. Its located in a historic area and famous studios are just next door. The theaters are clean and the staff is very helpful. This is not a huge theater, but clean and the seats are comfortable.The best asset this theater has is all the great businesses in walking distance. So, its easy to meet for coffee before the show and then grab a drink or a bite to eat after the show and talk about the movie.

Lovely for handicapped. All seats nice and comfy. Expertly stocked bar with fantastic bartenders who excel at making delicious cocktails, and some of the best chicken nuggets around among other treats. The atmosphere is so nice you find its just a nice place to have a drink and chat.

It is a nice theater, but the place is a bit small.They have nice and friendly staff here. The bathroom is clean.The price of the items is just as every theaters out there, pricey. Their tickets are a bit expensive, but than it is Culver City.I like the fact that they have a bar in there. One can get a drink while waiting for their show.They need to update their seating to be more comfortable for the price I am paying to watch a show here.

I was just having dinner at a Cuban resto 4 minutes away from the cineplex while looking for an earlier time slot to watch Judy. At least, I enjoyed a great biodrama & thought that Renée Zellweger deserves an Oscar for that complex role.The place carries a vast architecture with a bar now in front of the concessions stand. The restrooms very clean & enormous. The theater units just right for me to see the film quietly.

Review №96

The theater was nice overall and I wouldnt avoid it but its definitely not the best theater experience Ive had, although it had some issues. Parking was not ideal, but thats expected in downtown Culver city, still $12 is a bit steep for the base charge for valet. I was in theater 5, I dont know if the rest of the theaters have this same issue but the screen is too small, I had way too much of the people and room in my vision. Also, the emergency exit had this light that was breaking my immersion. I get that you need to know where it is but it seemed like it was brighter than it needed to be. I would probably give it 3.5 stars but thats not an option and I dont think 3 stars is fair.

Review №97

This is my favorite theater. A movie guide introduces the movie and reminds guests to turn off phones and keep noise down. This is so much more effective than the on screen reminders. He or she also stays for about 10 mins in the theater. They say no late seating, but I think thats after the 10 minutes. There is regular Cafe food and cocktails are available. You can take into the theater. Seats are comfortable and big, but do not recline. Validated parking 3 hours in the lot over Trader Joes. Overall a wonderful theater.
