Great theater! And that employee, Blake, is top notch!

There was only one person at the ticket counter and then he left. Then there was only one person at the snack counter so it was super slow.

AMC Classic is classic for a reason. It is always a reliable movie-going experience. Great screens, wonderful visuals and great audio makes this theater a place for an enjoyable big screen viewing experience. AMC Classic is doing 1thing and doing it well. I always look forward to going to AMC bc I know what to expect, a great movie, affordable pricing, comfy atmosphere and helpful staff.

This theater used to be nice when it was part of Rave and even Carmike, but its gone downhill since AMC took over. The chronic understaffing combined with the lack of a separate ticket counter means long waits to buy tickets. The lines went out the doors last time we tried to go (see picture). That line would probably take an hour to clear. And its the same at the Summit location. You could of course pay the extra $2.50 per ticket to purchase online, but youll still have that line if you want popcorn.

First impression was not good. The parking lot was so dark, only a few of the many lights were actually on. The lobby was filthy and the staff was not friendly to say the least. The womans bathroom was disgusting absolutely nasty. Besides urine on all the seats the toilets had black mold in them. Once making to my seats I was worried how dirty the chairs would be I was pleasantly surprised they were somewhat clean. Only a little trash left from previous movie. Great movie but cleanliness needs great improvement. And better outside lighting, it made me as a woman really nervous to walk to my car alone.

Staff was helpful and friendly. Floors in lobby trash all over it. Trash overflowing cans in lobby, ladies restroom and outside in front of lobby. Floors inside movie theatre were sticky. 1st bag of popcorn had a burnt flavor. Got a second bag it had the same flavor. Movie was enjoyable.

Overall, we had a great experience here. I love going to the movies and this is the closest theater to my house and I like going here but- the floors were sticky with soda in the lobby and the price for two sodas, a popcorn bucket, and two movie tickets was $61.00. The average couple/family can’t afford to do that. Several people went with us to the movie and you can imagine the cost if they ordered food and/or snacks, as well. The movie was great (Midway) and I’ll go back, but it’s an expensive experience for what you receive.

Living in the country, I have to drive a ways to get to the movies. I like going to Lee Branch. Its fast, friendly and always LOTS of parking. The seats are comfy. The stadium seating gives everyone a good view. The popcorn is yummy and the STUBS program is awesome! A great place to catch a movie.

Better allow extra time because on busy Friday nights the theater makes you stand in the concessions line to purchase tickets. There is a kiosk available but doesnt help if you want snacks. Two registers were open with the cashiers getting food as well as running registers. There was no ice in one coke machine and the other 2 were almost out. Obviously more employees would have helped. The regular line moved much faster than the reward line, which costs money to be able to go through - waste of money on that. Seating is good, fairly clean theater, good popcorn but the way the lines are run is no good.

I went to purchase 5 gift cards at $50 each (which guarantees customers) and was not allowed more than 2 cards at $50 each. I was told that I could come back the next day and purchase two more and the following day for my last card. Now grant you, I’m traveling from Pell City and will NOT travel three days in a row to Lee Branch. Very poor customer service when gift cards guarantees customers. Went to the Summit to get my gift cards.

Pathetic, no customer service/attendees so people were skipping the long slow line, large amounts of popcorn everywhere, rings in the toilets & only two employees at the concession on a rainy Saturday when lots of people decided it was a good day for a movie. This theater USED to be very nice with lots of attendees at ticket windows. AMC has yet to impress!

I LOVE THIS PLACE! When I was little we went here for my birthday to watch Turbo or Smurfs idk. Anyways they let me up in that room where they play the movie and they let me start it. I loved it Ill never forget that.

One of the best movie theaters to go when in the Birmingham and Irondale area. The seating is very contemporary a comfortable, and the concession options are better than your regular pop corn and soda theater. As every AMC, the movie offers benefits via mobile App that are a must for someone living close by who happens to be an avid movie goer... like me!

My friend and I had a wonderful time here!! The theater was clean, cool and comfy with its reclining seats and movable arm rests. Plus, the movie was fantastic and the surround sound made us feel as we were right there in the movie! Amazing experience!

Drove all the way out here to see a film and the projector was broken and there was nothing else we wanted to see. Employee didn’t even offer a free popcorn or any consolation beyond a sarcastic “sorry.” And the floors are always sticky.

While this is a great theater, if you can find a AMC Prime near you the upgrade is well worth the price.

This is my go-to spot for movies in my area. Usually not too crowded, the Big D theater, 3D and early premiere screenings are always great! And theres plenty to do in Lee Branch shopping center before or after a movie! Good food options too!

We have been standing in line to get tickets/:concessions for over 30 minutes. We are now late for our 1:10 movie. There are only two people working the concession stand. People are bypassing the line and not paying to see their movie. This is the worse system ever. Will not be coming back

Pretty clean. Good service at the counter. Nice movie experience

The theater was fine the movie was good its a little dirty around where get your drinks and stuff

We went last night to see CATS. The place is always clean, seating comfortably, and plenty of parking.

Over an hour drive to get here. Always liked this theater. Came here to watch avengers and game with my wife and step kids for her early mothers day present. Had 3 people come in to clean and they rudely informed us that there was nothing at the end of the movie and we could leave. There was a trailer for the new spider man movie at the end. It announced it at the beginning of the movie. I work in service industry. I have to stay late many nights waiting for my paying guests to leave. I have not been rude to one of them. Im happy that they are there. I, nor my family will be back to the back to this location.

See movies in empty. I DId not even pay!

The staff was nice, but the building was nasty. There was trash everywhere, and all of the trash cans were overflowing. Also, only one of the four butter dispensers was working.

Normally a great theater. Last time I went out move wouldnt play and we had to be refunded.

The outdoor ticket window was not open forcing you to wait in tge concessions line to purchase your ticket. This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever seen in over 40 years of moviegoing. While this may save the theater from having to pay someone whose only job is to sell tickets it does nothing to expedite the purchase or said tickets. I came inside after seeing the outside ticket booth closed and was rewarded by a line of people stretching to the doorway. By the time I reached the concessions counter to buy my ticket the previews were over and the movie had started. I had driven close to 30 miles, I live in Childersburg and am forced to come to the Lee Branch AMC Theater. Regardless of the fact that I had driven the aforementioned distance I had to leave because the previews had ended and tge movie had started.

Really enjoyed the atmosphere of the Theater and the cleanliness. Staff was friendly and informative.

Overall great theater but is always understaffed. This makes me give it a much lower review than I would otherwise.

Saw Avengers. The line for concessions was long but went very quickly. Had a great time!

Nasty movie theatre. Do not go if you can help it. AMC should be ashamed to have their name attached to this location.

Took roughly 40 min. To get tickets and popcorn, otherwise, the seating etc was just fine

This is a great place to come enjoy a movie with your friends and family. The ticket prices are a little high, but if you purchase the VIP card theyre a little more manageable, especially if youre a frequent movie go-er. The theatres are clean, spacious, and comfortable except that theyre usually a little cold so bring a jacket or a blanket. Sound and picture quality are great, 3D theatres are fantastic, and the food quality and variety are fare. Food is extremely expensive for what it is but some would argue its part of the experience. Would highly recommend this place to casual or frequent movie go-ers.

Luckily I purchased tickets on Fandango before the movie. The theater had one line which was for purchasing tickets and refreshments. Needless to say, the line was out the door. There wasnt an attendant in the booth outside, OR a ticket taker in the lobby. This was my first time visiting this particular theater and it definitely lacked adequate staffing to make my experience enjoyable or even up to par for that matter.

The crowd warranted more concessions open. Like the ones back by the outer theaters.

My favorite movie theater!! The Big D is a little more money but well worth the price! It has much bigger screen and lust leather seats that vibrate during load intense scenes! And Big D is NOT 3d

No one collecting tickets. Line out the door for concessions. No staff present to control crowds. Was this a busy Friday or Saturday night? No. It was a 1pm on a Saturday with no major new releases. This theater is not long for this world. AMC is one of the worst movie theater operators in the country.

Seats were very comfortable and the facility was very well maintained. Have had no issues with movies being sold out or the quality of the picture or sound being horrible.It will be standard movie theater concessions, however there is a rewards program that is very generous to frequent users. If you plan to see a movie here, do expect a line at the concession stand

Enjoyed the movie. 2 stars due to odor and uncleanness of the theater as a whole.

Love the AMC deal where for around $20 a month you can see 3 movies a week. Theater is nice. Employees seem nice.

Nice theatre. Could use a better listing on prices for tickets. Other than that it is good.

My favorite theatre in Birmingham. Doesnt have too many breeders or annoying people. Its overall a great facility with good staff. Always my first pick of where to see a movie.

I signed up for the AMC monthly deal. I called to cancel and they are still taking money out of my account and they refuse to refund my money from the time I initially called in: I spoke to a Julia (manager) and she told me I had to despute it with my bank. Don’t ever sign up for the AMC monthlyDeal. They know people don’t go to the movies like they plan and they use this is a way to get more money out of you and will not refund your money when you realize you are being charged for a service you are not using. Bad practices

Nice and clean. Nothin fancy to make it stand out from other theaters.

Excellent service! Wonderful atmosphere!

The manager Courtney was fabulous in working with our large group for the showing of “Overcomer”Everything turned out perfectly. Thank you!!

Over the last year since AMC took over the whole place is filthy. Garbage cans over flowing outside and inside at all times of the day. Pink mold in the bathroom sinks. Ladies restroom is always dirty. Two garbage cans running over with paper towels. Toilets dirty and floors wet and sticky. On one visit someone had spilled a whole soda on the isle where we sat. I went to tell an employee before the movie started. Never cleaned it up. It was still there when we left. This review is from many visits. Not one bad day. Wish I had another option on our side of town.Edit: Another bad night at AMC Lee Branch.It was a Thursday night. Very slow with employees talking behind the counter.Bathrooms were once again filthy. Black mold ring in more than one toilet and sinks also dirty. Had to open 5 stalls to find a cleanish toilet. Pictures posted this time.The counter for getting napkins,straws, mustard and ketchup had spilled soda and food all over. Red stain from previous spills.THEN, we sit through all the commercials and previews. Screen goes blank. Movie never starts. Wait 10 minutes. Lights go out instead of movie commercials and previews start from the beginning!!!Not that bad but after we watch it all again lights come on and movie never starts a 2nd time. So we left with a refund.Not that big of deal if it was a rare occurrence but something happens every other visit there.

As always, We had a WONDERFUL time.

Ok place to see a movie. Location was not crowded. It was very hot in the theatre thought.

Pricey and has consistent technical issues; however, they have the nicest theatre in town until other Bham theatres renovate.

Great place to watch movies triple D is the best great seating

Bathrooms were in bad shape. Friday night and only 2 working concessions and no one at ticket counter. Things have really gone downhill

Movie started 30 minutes late. While in line, the manager started yelling at the employees for not serving the premier customer. Very unprofessional management. The staff seemed to be the typical unenthusiastic millennial type.

Nice clean theater with comfortable seating. Would go back.Edit: Have been back twice and used the restrooms. The men’s restroom is disgusting, i bet it hasn’t been cleaned in months. My wife claims the women’s restroom is the same. Keep in mind that this wasn’t an isolated case. We’ve been twice over the course of 3 months and the restrooms looked the same. I know it seems petty to focus so hard on the restrooms of a movie theatre but good lord this place is disgusting. We’ve actually decided to try a different movie theatre because of this.

Men’s restroom is NASTY.. i don’t like to hear sticky shoes when I’m walking out of the bathroom. You gotta shuffle your feet when you get to the carpet. Full body shiver and try to forget it happened. One positive thing about it though is that it made me feel ok about how much I paid for popcorn and a ticket. You can’t feel like they are gouging you when you know the same urinals have been out of order for the last 8 months, and the cleaning crew comes once a week. $20 is the least I can do.

Restrooms are not very clean. Theater needs an overall cleaning

The theater was clean, very polite staff but both the mens and the family restrooms reek of old urine. Its bad when you walk in and kids ask why it smells.

Me and my husband go to this walking a lot we do not go on Fridays nor Saturday cause they let kids with out adults in rated R films . if ur parents say its cool then its cool but shut up and watch the movie . staff wont do anything about it. Let ppl and kids act like idiots . when ppl pay to watch it and we drive a hour away.

We go every Tuesday for $5 movies, tonight was angel is fallen really good action flick

Paying for the movie is a joke! Same line for popcorn and snacks as movie tickets. Wont go back.

Nice theatre clean, ok service. The concessions guy could be a bit more friendly. My wife was trying to get his attention to tell him she wanted to layer the butter on her popcorn, not sure if he didnt here her or ignored her. The seats are much more roomy than most theatres and very comfortable. Very large screens great sound. I use the movie pass app and they dont allow you to get rewards points with the app but Regal cinemas does so this gives Regal the edge in my future choices.

I enjoy going to this theatre over any other theatre in the Birmingham area. I have never had a disappointing experience with the staff, but I have never had an outstanding experience either. Most of the times I visit everything seems to be clean, however I recently went and things were a little dirty. I understand when it is busy it may be hard to get to clean some areas, but before I went in to watch the movie there was popcorn all over the floors, trash overflowing in the trash cans, and no paper towels in the mens bathroom. After the 2 hour movie was done there was still popcorn all over the floors, overflowing trash in the trash cans and no paper towels in the mens bathroom. I encourage the staff to use their team wisely, on busy nights. Instead of having 10-12 team members behind the counter and one team member cleaning (from what I saw), send a couple of more team members to clean up the main area. Thanks!

Everything, the food is a little high but the staff was friendly and the prices for tickets was at a good price and the movie was awesome.

Pretty good theater. Comfy. polite staff. Overpriced concessions as expected of any theater.

Fix the ticket machine in lobby, overall decent.

When you pay this much to go see a movie you expect a nice experience, not dirty counters, dirty floors, nasty restrooms, no ticket agents (I had to stand in line to use a kiosk)... the opening previews stopped playing for a solid 10 minutes and then started over at the beginning. The popcorn was stale, the butter dispenser was empty, only one drink machine was working. The signs showing which theater your movie is playing in dont work and you have to hunt someone down to ask. I didnt even go on a busy day. Oh well... at least the movie was good!

Clean friendly nice family oriented

We went to the movie on the wednesday before Thanksgiving & there were only 3 people working. They were swamped and could not keep up with the crowd. A lot of the drinks were out. It looks like the company has cut back on the employees and the few employees left cant keep up.

Good deal. Awesome sound

Its a shame I pay $40 a month for our memberships and the theater cant afford to give me one extra cup so I could split my $12 popcorn with a friend.The consession workers are flat out rude every time Ive come here, theaters are never clean, and the bathrooms alway smell so strongly of urine and raw sewage I couldnt even use the bathroom my last visit because of the smell.

All round good theater.

I purposely made sure I was NOT purchasing 3D tickets, but after arriving early, getting great seats, the last 2 previews were in 3D????...then the movie begins IN REAL 3D!Some how they swap the theaters around from 3 weeks earlier when I purchased my tickets with my Stubs Premier account online.Thankfully, they had the digital movie slated to begin at that exact time 5:00, I was trying to find another theater (which was 30 minutes later from my original ticket-4:30, I dont like the late beginnings for the feature film!)So we ended up getting a seat...in a smaller theater...with more people....watched the same previews...again.It crazy the original theater where I was slated to be was LARGER with 5 people in there (REAL 3D) before we left...weird planning.Is AMC going to renovate this location? It is awfully run down and starting to look trashy. I dont think this is representative of the image they want.

Friendly staff, clean theater. Good movie Great sitting what more can you ask for ?

We took our son, who is a huge movie lover, to see the new Spider-Man movie over the weekend. It was awesome to walk in to sweet smiling faces behind the counter! They were so nice, friendly and patient as we went back and forth on our food and drink choices. We will definitely be going back and I highly recommend it!

Been going here the last few years. Always a great experiance.

Very clean place. Movie was a bit louder than normal. Honest, friendly staff. Husband accidentally dropped his debit card while we were there. Of course we didn’t realize it until after we left...Called the office when we realized what happened (literally 10 mins after we left) and an employee had already turned it in.

Absolutely horrible customer service with every single employee we talked to. A last resort movie theater if you have no other options.

Old style theater, have to wait in a long line to get tickets and order food

This is a nice movie theater and has very comfortable seats. If you can catch a matinee then it is very reasonable but prime time tickets are pricey along with popcorn and drinks. For two people to see a Sunday matinee it was $35, tickets $5.99 each, lg. Popcorn $8.39, lg. Drink $6.29 and regular drink $5.79. The drinks are where the expense is with this theater. Needless to say this is a date night only occasion.

It was such a cold night, but we had to see Aquaman. Our showing was in those new D theatres (not quite sure what they are called specifically) with the new seats and full sound. There werent many people in our showing so it felt nice, roomy and spaced out just like I like for it to be. I had my favorite; pretzel nuggets with the hot cheese and my husband had fries. The only issue was the girl who processed our AMC passes didnt know what she was doing and was rather unconcerned and not customer friendly, but the movie itself made up for it all.

One of the managers there wouldn’t stop looking at me and my friends and followed one of my friends into the bathroom we all didn’t feel welcome.

This is my favorite little neighborhood theater! I wish they would get the food/seat service to make watching the movie a dining experience, but I rarely have an issue with my movie or service at this theater.

Nice Theatre. Expensive Concessions

Not a big fan of the concessions and tickets all in one giant line. Spiderman was better than expected

The best theater in Birmingham. Avoid the one at the summit and come here instead! Friendly staff and great flicks!

Its your typical movie theatre visit. We went early and got good seats. Staff were great and they still offer the popcorn bucket so thats a plus!!

As far as movie theaters go, it was pretty good.

Always clean and if you are a Stubbs member you rarely wait in line. Bring some money if you get concessions though. Stadium seating with armed spacious seats. The kids love the pizza and curly fries when I can afford them.

Much nicer theater in comparison to other AMCs in the area. Could be cleaner, but lets be honest, what movie theater couldnt? I like that its near a lot of food options so you can eat before you go.

Saw I Feel Pretty for a girls night out. Nice atmosphere and yummy popcorn! Clean facilities

Nice theatre, but they need more workers for primetime. Lines can be way too slow!

This is the second time I’ve been to this theater that there are two cashiers, selling tickets and concessions, and there is a line out of the door. This will be my last time here.

Nice theater. Food and drink expensive. Way too many commercials for national and local businesses before the movie. Good reason to wait for the DVD.

Great theater- clean and tasty popcorn!

It might be expensive but is worth it going with your family. I have really good memories and I still go today.

Saw Infinity War, and paid the premium for Real3D plus a $5 convenience fee for ordering tickets online. Still had to stand in line to get the tickets ($5 wasted). The projector had a very dim bulb that flickered and dark scenes in 3D were unwatchable. My $150 sound bar sounded better than their system and it had a loud electric hum the entire time.

Very clean. And comfortable seats.

I just fell for the “buy a pizza and get a drink for $0.99” only to look at my receipt later and realize I was CHARGED full-price for everything PLUS and additional $21.00. Seriously, what a scam. Be advised: pay close attention to that total before handing over payment

Line out the door for both ticket and concession. All registers should be running and fully staffed on sold out days including the smaller ones on either end of theater. Bathrooms were filthy before and after my movie. When informed that games are down and Children are having several dollars stolen from non working games, you should respond more appropriately than, well, I cant leave what I am doing to take care of THAT. #1 no one asked you to get right on that issue and customers losing several dollars in games should be addressed with an out of order sign. A better way to respond may be that you are sorry for the inconvenience, you will address it as soon as possible. Snarky replies when customers have stood in line after line for overpriced movies and snacks deserve a smile and welcome service not snotty, your bothering me responses.

Generally enjoyable. I have to say, watching TV where I expect the commercials is more my speed. Paying an exorbitant amount and watching 30 full minutes of previews is ridiculous!

The Movie was Awsome,The place was filthy trash was everwhere FEET STUCK TO THE FLOOR.Bathrooms were nasty.employee was hateful at concession area...We will not go back...
