AMC Hampton Towne Centre 24

Went to see Deadpool yesterday. holy wow I hadn’t been to this theatre since 1999! It is HUGE!
The tickets were up there (13+ for a 1:50 movie) but the reclining seats were awesome. The theatre is pretty large and there are subwoofers under the seats so you rattle and vibrate when something crazy happens.
Popcorn and drinks. well it’s a movie theatre. It isn’t much different than I remember. a large drink and large popcorn (free refills) is 15 bucks. I split it with my date and we refilled the popcorn once and drink 2x.
I love they have Coke Freestyle and also a pour your own butter popcorn station with condiments like red peppers and parmesan packets.
Definitely was a great movie going experience. I probably won’t be back very often because there aren’t a lot of new movies that I ever am dying to see but it was an awesome treat and I do look forward to my next experience there!

Why am I moving again? And why during what seems to become an awesome movie year?!
Here it is, I hate going to the movies. My back starts hurting in the middle of the movie, I don’t like sitting elbow-​to-​elbow with strangers … and I could probably come up with more reasons but let’s leave it at that.
After watching deadpool (and seeing a way to young person walk out from the theater) I think I have changed my mind. Reclining seats?! Uhm, Yeah! No one was in my space, even when the people in the middle had to go do whatever did i have to move. And the sound?! Man, love love love.
With an upcoming move, I’m sad that i won’t be able to see more movies here. I’ll miss you reclining seat.

The upgrades to the seating is really the only part of this theater that can be considered above par. Awesome electronic reclining chairs in a cushy leather make for an enjoyable viewing of any film.
As for the ticket system and concessions… AMC 24 really falls flat, and I’m not referring to overpriced concessions. Concessions are slow to serve and they don’t even have to worry about drinks anymore which makes no sense to me… the lines are still outrageous… meanwhile the drink station that is now self serve, is messy and unruly and the staff clearly don’t care about up keep maintenance… at one point a staff member was beating down ice into the soda machine in such a violent and haphazard way that ice and water was flying out of it and hitting me 3 feet away.
The layout is chaotic and promotes unruly confused lines. The self-​ticket systems are glitchy and take forever, but still beat the insane lines at the traditional ticket booth area that is outside and offers no heating or shelter from bitter cold weather. All in all we were lucky we got there 40 minutes before showtime, otherwise we might not have made it to our seats given all the delays and set backs.

Nicely renovated with reclining seats! The reclining seats were the highlight of the movie because I felt so relaxed while watching 13 Hours last night with my fiancé. The reason why I’m giving 4 stars and not 5 is because it was extremely hot in that specific theater. The heat was quite distracting!

I absolutely LOVED the renovations they have completed at this movie theater! The biggest improvement are automatic, reclining leather seats! It makes you want to go in the theater and take a nap instead of watch a movie. I have always been a fan of AMC theaters but this one definitely takes the cake. The variety of movies and times offered are always convenient, they have an Imax theater, and of course, the options of food are good as well. Of course I’ll be viewing movies here again.

Ever since their new upgrade on seating, less and less tickets have been available. It almost seems like you have to get to the movies three hours early to get yourself seats. When greeted at the kiosk the people are rude. Overall their service is awful. I used to love this amc and thoroughly enjoyed coming here. In the past few months, however, the theatre has become less and less appealing. My advice to you is to take your business else where. There has been three instances where I have tried to buy movie tickets, but have been unable because there were no more seats left. One movie specifically is Sisters. I had arrived twenty minutes prior to the movies beginning and was unable to purchase tickets. It not only bothers me, but angers me as well. Once again, please do not take your business here.

RECLINING SEATS IN A MOVIE THEATER???
Wow.
Anyway, the service was great, the lady at the ticket sales was VERY nice, she was very patient with us as we picked out our seats. I had no idea why we were picking out our seats until we went inside…
Those reclining seats were everything.

Went last Friday ¹¹⁄₆ to see spectre and the projector was faulty, got a refund came back today Friday ¹¹⁄₁₃ and a fire alarm goes off but there is no fire. Said they would start where the movie let off but they didn’t missed a whole chase scene. The food is more expensive than the movie tickets. Last time I go here. Going to go to Paragon instead.

Tried to go today to see The Peanuts Movie. We saw they had opened the right hand side, after their renovations, and are currently working on the left. We wanted to see the 12:00 pm 3-​D showing.
My husband bought the three tickets, and we proceeded to go to the theater, to find out that ALL the seats were occupied! They’ve SERIOUSLY reduced the amount of seats! I’d heard that they were adding reclining seats, but their room capacity’s actually smaller than Cinebistro’s now! The kiosk DID NOT show that the room was sold out, so as a result, we had no place to sit. Husband went back to exchange for the next time – 12:50. But, we’re waiting for nearly an hour for the next, and there are hardly any benches to sit and wait.
My husband just got a refund, and we left. To their credit, the guy at the front gave us passes for next time. More than likely, we won’t be returning until they get their act together. I highly suggest that they have kiosks that show the theater set up – and also which seats are left – to prevent over bookings! Really disappointed, we normally come here to watch our movies, even though we live in Newport News. Guess we’ll be going to the Paragon…

Went on a weekday very clean and nice. we took the recline seats which wasn’t expensive at all. they had a live band drinks and food. would come here again especially on my birthday, free tickets.

Decided to go to a movie while visiting the Hampton-​Norfolk area. This is a very nice theatre. It wasn’t busy because it was a Wednesday. They are presently doing renovations and putting recliners in the theatres. I don’t know if that will be good as I can picture my husband falling asleep. Did not partake of anything at the concession stand, but can only assume prices are in line with other theatres. I was happy that all the employees we talked to were very friendly and helpful. There was a concession stand area that looked abandoned, but maybe that was because it was a weekday. I think there are 14 theatres inside. I love the way they are set up so no matter where you sit, no ones head is in your way. Will more than likely go here again while in the area.

The theaters are good size, but I think the crowd makes the difference also.
I wish there was a way to find out online which movies were playing in the bigger theaters that AMC has. Everytime we see a movie there it is a crapshoot as to what theater we are in.
The theater we were in was 7, this time, smaller theater but still had stadium seating. We got there in plenty of time to get our seats and watch the movie previews for the summer season. There were some late comers that were allowed in AFTER the show start time. The theater was slightly full so the late comers had to do some crossing over to sit down, a little disruptive and rude.
Overall a good experience, people were polite and put their cell phones away during the movie. The laughter did not get too carried, the sound system was pretty dead on with the acoustics.

I am very upset that my very educated well behave daughters cannot get in because they won’t let a 16 UR old see a pg13 movie. Penalizing well behaved teens because of rowdy kids. This is so unfair and very stereotypical.

This use to be the go to theater. Go to get tickets for a movie and standing outside in a long line while it is cold and only 3 people selling tickets makes no sense. Get more help when busy and sell tickets inside. Waited in line for popcorn and a drink and they have so much other crap for sale people couldn’t make up their mind what to get and on top of that the cashier looked lost. Took to long so we left to head to the theater. sat down during the previews. Screen was fine, seats seem small in comparison to my new go to theater. You can lift the arm rest but that is not always an option. Unless I get free tickets I think last night might be my last visit.

I’ve been going here since I was a little boy, and even though I no longer live in Hampton Roads, whenever I’m home visiting family, we always stop by here and see a movie!
I have a personal connection with this place since I’ve seen basically all the Harry Potter movies here as a kid. I also had a lot of high school friends who used to work here and never complained, so that must mean something! My favorite movie theater in the region. Never insanely crowded, huge space with lots of theater times and showings. It’s also quite clean for how massive it is. The one down-​side is that there are lots of younger kids and high schoolers hanging around (but hey, I’ve been one of them — we all grow up!)
Price-​wise, it’s AMC and almost 2015, so anything involving movie ticketing and concessions is gonna be expensive and it won’t be getting any better. We just have to deal with that sad fact…
Regardless, if you have a choice of a theater location in Hamptons Roads, I absolutely recommend Towne Centre 24!

This is the only movie theater we go to. We live in suffolk, so it is a good half hour away and there are many closer options. Still we continue to travel to this specific theater. The seats are big and cozy, the prices are right, and the arm rests go up which, as cuddlers, we love. They have IMAX and 3D options which we fully take advantage of.

Went here with my niece to see Mocking Jay. Just as the movie was about to begin she decided she was terrified to see it and wanted to leave. Melt down! So we left — didn’t want to disrupt others. I told the lady up front working what happened and she instantly gave me replacement passes. I was so grateful to not lose my passes I had just used! I would have not blamed them for not giving us new ones. Not their fault at all! Very satisfied with the wonderful customer service.

There’s no doubt that because of this theater I became a true movie buff. Basically every weekend I was here catching a movie with my student id discount. Being a college student it was always nice to get off campus and come here for a sense of normalcy. A lot of great memories and movies here. After a while the admission did increase and it started to turn into a breeding ground for highschool and middle school meet-​ups. I didn’t let that (or them) deter me though. My favorite movie theater in the area! Yup!

Well what can I say? To me this location is like any other AMC. Expensive tickets, expensive concessions, and a lot of young kids hanging around. We only come for the IMAX theater, which is nice and large. Seats are ok. Definitely more comfy ones at Cinebistro or Paragon. They have a rewards card program. Once you have spent $ 100, you get a $ 10 credit toward ticket prices or concessions. Food is very expensive. Chicken tenders, curly fries and a large drink is $ 17.

As Julia says, Nice theater. This location offers the most consistent in terms of cleanliness, service and professionalism. The great number of showtimes means that you can turn in most anytime and catch your preferred movie.
I recommend this AMC as the overall best choice on the Pen…
