AMC Loews East Hanover 12

I can’t believe this is an AMC theatre it is old and dirty no comfortable seats– I ordered via fandango and paid a convenience fee and still had to pick up actual tickets? The point of an app is to use it! Stop printing paper and get the new reclining seats ‘n

Here right now. I hope I can make it through the movie. The seats are that uncomfortable!!!

Worst theater I’ve been too. Sits a small as an airplane seat. Half are broken and stained. Non stadium seating. I haven’t been in a theater like this since the 90s

This theatre sucks. The entrance/​exit sucks. The parking sucks. The line to order tickets sucks. The disgusting cloth seats suck. The recline on the seats sucks. The cup holders suck. Get it?
The only positive thing is the quality of the picture and sound, but I’ll do everything in my power to ensure I never go back to this location, which is in desperate need of a makeover, and a whole new location for that matter.

Have not been there in about 5 years. I received terrible service. After our daughter was born a year in a half ago, my wife and I decided to go to the movies as our daughter was in school and we both had the day off.
The employee at the food area get like he didn’t want to help (we were the only ones there) then when we ask for pricing on hotdogs he rolled his eyes and shook his head. Lol I mean I’m sorry I’m asking you something that is let of your job? When he gave us the total he quotes us $ 48 and I asked him how did he get that for such a small order. His respond was «I don’t know, the movie theatre is expensive» I responded with that’s not the appropriate answer. He told me a hotdog and large drink is $ 15. I said «but the hotdog price is $ 4.xx» he said yes. I asked, «well the large drink is $ 10??» He said «idk yeah».
Wow. I visited the managers area and waited 12 minutes and nobody was there. I asked the other only employee to get a manager and non arrived 8 minutes later. I called the number and asked for a manager and they said she is in a meeting.
Well, horrible place. Horrible. I will never ever visit this location not will I ever recommend people to ever go here.
Please stay away. Aside from that, this location look like it’s not the cleanest. Dirty rest rooms, popcorn area is not well kept, etc. follow the other reviews and stay away.

Crappy theater. Very uncomfortable seats. Expected more from this location. Don’t waste your $$.

This Is the only theatre I will go to. It’s clean, the employees are pleasant and I don’t have to worry about my car being stolen while I’m watching the movie. The «element» is good too. It’s no fun watching a movie with rowdy people in the theater. God knows we have a lot of those. I won’t go near Essex Green cinema or Willowbrook. Unless I want to come out and find my car gone.

The most uncomfortable movie theatre ive been to in a while and quite dirty, falling apart… surprising for the city its in.

Very nice movie theatre. Very clean, staff is nice, popcorn fresh, theatre and bathroom is always clean. I only gave 4 stars because parking is tough. There is limited parking outside the theatre but then there is a parking garage which I am not a fan of.

Crappy theater. Seats are old and make noise. Walls and doors are so thin, you can hear noise from hallway. I paid extra to buy tickets in advance and avoid the line yet the machines didn’t work. So I had to wait in line anyway and they wouldn’t refund the four dollar ($ 2/​ticket) «convenience» fee. Awful customer service.

I would like to start by saying this movie theater takes out all the joy from going to a movie. I was watching a movie and a rat climbed up my leg and suddenly i was sharing my 10 dollar baggie of pop corn with this rodent. I yelled and got kicked out of the movie by the grouch that checks your ticket and sniffs out underage kids when they sneak into a movie. He would be a great fbi agent. This movie theater is the worst. The seats smell like diapers that havent been changed for 5 years also as a buddy of mine got lice from the seat. By far the worst movie theater in the world. Knock it down and build something good like a best buys or target.

While a convenient location and good show times this theatre is seriously dated. The seats are dirty and quite uncomfortable with a poor layout. The entire cinema is in serious need of renovation or demolition. Can only hope that this theatre gets renovated or rebuilt as soon as possible.

Musty and in need of a renovation — I like this one a little more than other AMCs because they sometimes show art films.
Apart from digital projection some years back the only renovated thing about this place is the new highway marquee — otherwise its the same experience it was in 94. It’s pretty clean and not uncomfortable but one of the auditoriums I was in had a funky musty kind of oder.

Blah theater… no stadium seating, oldish seats, can hear the movie playing in the next room through the wall. Desperately needs updating to modern standards.

Parking at this theatre blows. Trying to get out once a movie is over is very frustrating and takes way too long. If your movie is popular, chances you are’t getting in unless you buy your tickets online well in advance. This theatre is crowded, dirty, and the staff knows absolutely nothing if you ask them anything beyond what is written on your ticket. Avoid it if you can.

Movie today. INSTRUCTIONS NOT INCLUDED. If you never heard of it. Check it out. It is a sub title movie but omgoodness Soooo real it is. The title sounds like it is a stupid movie. Previews seem like a I do not want to see it type movie. But I see everything and this was a deep movie. If your sensitive. Be careful it will have you crying for sure
Unilocal needs a movie category where you just talk of the movies itself. lol Well the theater was clean and the popcorn good. It is Hanover. it is usually very good. Room temp was very comfortable.

I’ve been coming to this theater since the early 90’s when it opened. Sad to say, but they have never updated it. No stadium seating, and the regular seats themselves are so worn out that you can sometimes rock back so far that you could be in a lounge chair. Great for the pool, not so great at the movie theater.
They should knock the theater down and start from scratch. We could deal with no movie theater on Route 10 for a year if it meant a modern movie theater was coming in.

I last wrote a review for this place almost five years ago. Guess what? It really hasn’t improved much. They now have a brand spakin’ new «AMC» marquee which replaced the falling apart «Loews Theatres» one (it only took them 3+ years). The staff is really young and nervous at times. The lobby is boring and looks like it hasn’t been renovated since the late 80s. Concession lines are loooooooooooong because they usually only have one till open.
There is a «coffee bar» inside the venue that seriously looks like it hasn’t been used since Star Wars last came out.
No stadium seating. It seems like with the exception of some tune ups on the screens, the theaters have been left completely alone in terms of renovation. The seats seem old, there is chewed up gum EVERYWHERE on them and — this seems to be a new theme, because it didn’t always used to be like this, but — the entire place literally smells like cat urine.
Oh, did I mention the super duper fun parking lot? Have fun fighting with a bunch of suburban moms dropping off their snot-​nosed teenagers to fit into tight spaces, avoid awkwardly placed pillars, finally finding a parking spot, walking back after 10pm looking over your back in the dimly lit atmosphere to check for serial killers, pulling out, and trying to find the exit (good luck). Last time I came here it was a pretty sunny afternoon and there was like, sewer water encompassing half of the bottom floor.
The one upside is that this place is maybe $ 1 cheaper than other NJ theaters.
I find myself here way too often because I am an AMC Stubs subscriber, and this is the closest «big» theater to my house. I seriously want an AMC in this area that is up to par with the ones in Rockaway and Paramus…
Thumbs down.
UPDATE: Even worse, they don’t seem to card here. So expect your R-​rated film to be overcrowded with giggling 14 year old girls.

What not too long ago was the new movie theater to help make East Hanover the «destination town» it is today, is now antiquated by today’s standards.
No stadium style seating. In fact, tight, uncomfortable seating with far too broken-​in chairs that cry out for replacement or repair.
A parking tower that is an ode to nightmare engineering’ complete with poles that just may have been designed to tear off side view mirrors and a roadway so constipated, it makes Yankee stadium seem like a pleasure.
Policies to not show titles on the Route 10 marquee, along with a push made years ago to keep out the riff raff of the youth (who may have been talking a bit too loud, but never seemed to hurt anyone) have left this place a bit of a ghost town.
Usually they are understaffed, such as one person selling and tearing tickets, while the kiosk remains all too often out of order. And only one concession register open. It’s as if they’re just going through the motions at this point.
On a positive, they’ve cleaned up the highway marquee. No longer does it guide you to look it all up yourself via Fandango with many a missing letter. Now at least it’s clean and completely blank.

Only in dire straits do I go here to watch a movie, like when other theaters are sold out… when there is absolutely NO other alternative.
Also, something always bothers me when I go to the AMC East Hanover. It could be a rude worker or inconsiderate patrons who are loud during the movie. Or sticky seats. Or stale air. Or mystery aroma.
If you don’t like feeling squished like a canned sardine, don’t come here. If you have prepubescent aged children, you probably drop them off here and do errands. The place just isn’t for me. The bathrooms are nice, though.
