Enjoyed a nice evening at the theater tonight watching Call of the Wild with Harrison Ford. Sunday evenings are definitely the best time to go to the movies. There were only 3 other couples in the theater we attended. I took a light weight throw in with me this evening as the last 2 times we went to the movies I was freezing. I was mighty comfortable tonight.

Went to see Call of the Wild. Cant remeber the book but none of the movie rang any bells. Still a good movie but you could tell a lot of it was animated, kids probably wouldnt notice though....Couldnt get the kiosk to take our credit cards. Went to refreshment stand for tickets and they were taking cash only, I think they had one register where you could use a card.

The dirt/stains on the screen makes the movie hard to watch. There are two screens here Ive seen this on. #7 and I cant remember the other one. This isnt new. Its been like this for a long time. How hard is it to clean or just replace the screen. This is the only theater Ive been to in my life with this constant issue. Doubt Ill be back until Ive heard this has been addressed. Just to distracting.

Ive been here quite a few times now. Nice theater with good quality sound and projectors. Concessions are kind of high but no higher than any other movie theater. The only problem I have is sometimes during a movie, if its a really loud an bass heavy part, the projector will quiver and cause the entire picture to noticeably shake. And it could even be somebody up there walking around the projector. Im not entirely sure, but it is quite annoying if Im being completely honest

I enjoyed my experience at this movie theater. Its very clean and the price is good and everyone working there are nice and friendly. I like that it has many separate theaters so you have more movie choices .

Not too bad. Def been to alot nicer. Good staff just needs some money injected into it. Seats got uncomfortable after about 20 min. Great experience tho! May the force be with you always.

Destiny, Ramona, Annabelle, and Mercedes are arrested, but only Destiny takes a plea deal, thinking of her daughter. Ramona is sentenced to five years probation, while the others serve short jail sentences before being released on probation. A year later, Elizabeth visits Ramona, who is now working a retail job. Ramona muses that Destiny was the only person she could trust, revealing a picture of her friend that she keeps along with her most valued possessions. The article is published, and Elizabeth encourages Destiny to reach out to Ramona and make amends.

Theyre always late to start the movies, and the food and drinks are way over priced. However if you can look past that youll have a good time.

The arcade games are dated. The handicap accessible bathroom stall is a joke. Its horrible trying to get in and out.

Review №19

Its a decent theater with decent prices. Just like some have said before its in need of major renovation. The smaller auditoriums smell and feel like youre walking into an old motel room. The seats feel as if they are wet. It makes me feel dirty just sitting in it. Cracked armrests that poke into you and torn seats that look like a dog got ahold of them. We were in auditorium 12.

Review №22

Ive been to a half dozen Malco Cinemas locations and generally have a positive experience. However the Fort Smith location despite a good mix of films, decent popcorn, good projection and sound, and pleasant staff really is only just okay. The entire place needs a deep cleaning. The seats are stained, carpets are worn, bathrooms are in fair cindition. The sidewalks outside need a power wash. If the movie is good you tend to forget these things but if its not...

Not only paid $30 for me, my hubby, and 8 yr old to see Lion King because we came up here for the weekend to see him before school starts since he is working close to here but to find out there is no changing stations in the restrooms. Not even in the family/handicapped restroom. Kind of disappointed. So getting to change my 4 month old inside theater because I’m not walking all the way to the car. Ideally wouldn’t even bring her but we are out of town seeing Daddy and he hasn’t seen Lion King.

Ticket prices are affordable. Its the best option to watch a movie in Fort Smith. Its in desperate need of renovation though, the theater is starting to show its age. Expect cracked armrests, possible seats covered with trash bags until they get repaired, and sub-par audio and video quality. If youre wanting to see a major release Id suggest making a trip out of town.

Ticket prices are pretty good, concessions are a little high but considering most of a theatres money is made off concessions it isnt too bad compared to other theaters Ive been to. The seats are pretty comfortable, armrests lift up for those of us with bigger bums or couples to cuddle a little. The VIP rooms are even better with footrests and more personal space, but tickets do cost a few dollars more, and I think there are only two of those rooms so youre limited on movies for them.

It is a relatively nice cinema. Per cinemas the drinks and snacks are too expensive, but that is to be expected. They do have a good variety of new movies and are always cleaner then the Carmike.

Went in to watch Frozen II @ 7 only to be creeped out by a large man that goes by the name derek or something. I waited 5 minutes in line only for my turn to come and the girl being told to go home so I had to get in line again. I’m just glad that the young lady I did get, darales was a sweet heart. The theatre and hall smelled of mold and the theatre chairs were comfortable however the arm rest was scratchy and old. There are multiple reviews about the theatre needing renovation, and let me tell you, they’re not wrong. I loved that they had a lot of Christmas spirit, even though it’s literally thanksgiving, the only thing I thought was a little cheap was that all their decorations looked like arts and crafts. As soon as I stepped in it was like I was walking into a 3rd grade art class. This place really just seems old and cheap. I think from now on I’m gonna go to the AMC on towson. Also, who is Karen and why is fort smith giving her a giant “ present “ wrapped in a paper towel fabric?

Just alright. Nothing new to report except that they have done away with Senior tickets and made it hard for me to continue to take my Great grandson to the movies. With all the tickets being the same price.I just cant afford it anymore..

This movie by Stan Lee was a great continuation of the first part. I thought it was as good as the first one. Maybe even better. I really enjoyed it. Plus I really needed a night out, just to relax and kick back. The movie for me, was well received.

Do not go to Malco in Ft Smith and expect to see what youre looking for. Drove all the way up there with grandkids to see a movie and when we got there they had taken all the good movies down and was showing all scary movies and several showings of the same movie, NOT FOR KIDS!! Wont go back there. And their website is false.

I really like the seating at this theater, I also like the number of theatres they show new releases on so you are not jammed in like sardines trying to watch a new hot movie. The atmosphere is nice but bring a sweater just in case it can get a little cool in the theatre. They are a little bit pricey but most movie theaters are especially when it comes to the food and drinks.

Very very aggravated with this establishment . Called ahead of time because my husband and I live an hour away to make sure we could take our three month old into a movie . They assured me on the phone that it was more then alright as long as it wasn’t a rated R movie . Only to drive All the way up there to be told we weren’t going to be able to watch the movie we call way ahead of time about . That we can’t bring a baby in after six . When the gentleman who stated this policy was also the one who talked to me earlier on the phone and never mentioned a thing about it and told me it was ok to bring my child in . Completely ruined my husband and I date night and changed my opinion on this place . You need to educate your staff about policies so this doesn’t happen again in the future . You lost a customer in us .

Purchased two $8.00 buckets of popcornand both had alot of burnt popcorn that tasted stell. Dumped the buckets, hoping to get better popcorn no luck. Also, very agrivading to spent $30 on refreshments, but you have to wait five minutes to get a refill.

The general manager, Derek Flynn, was unable to validate my valid Fandango coupon due what he suggested was an error on fandangos part, and then was a jerk to myself and my companion. No customer service skills whatsoever. Also failed to give me back my $10 change until i had to point it out to him that he still owed me $10. From now on, when i want to see a movie in Fort Smith i will go to AMC 14 on Towson and i suggest others do likewise.

Used to be dollar movies and we went two or three times a month, last time was 3.50 per person. These movies may already be at retail outlets... But some movies are better on the big screen.We go about once a month since the price hit 3.00.

After spending 50 dollars in tickets and concessions was told we were not allowed to take our 10 month old into a PG movie Breakthrough. I dont understand why they are rated Parental guidance if they are joining to restrict when we choose to take our own child to a movie. There excuse was no children were allowed in PG or higher movies. What point in the rating of movies. Sad part is this aint the first time we have had the same experience.

The last time I went there it was to see a R rated horror movie . It was 1PM and they had let a couple of 11 year old girls in there. They were screaming and throwing popcorn the whole time. It was just me, them and my two friends in the theater. My friend proceeded to ask a staffmember why they were in the theatre and they wouldnt reply. I then went and asked a different employee to at least ask them to keep the noise down, as I had already tried asking the girls who then shouted obscenities at me, and the employee walked away...I wont go back there.
