Best movie theater! Staff are always friendly. Popcorn is delicious. Seating is comfy and plentiful. Best deals for tickets and snacks

Illinois theater has been on our downtown square for many years and is clean with fresh popcorn, soda and candy. They are wheel chair accessible but it would be a good idea to park on the square to get to the smoothest sidewalks. They have tons of movie times available. They will be on the northwest corner of the square. Dont worry if you pass them because there is parking behind the theater.

This is a good place to takebthe family! $8 each gets you a movie popcorn and a drink. The staff are very friendly also. Just all around good experience

We always enjoy watching movies here... staff is always pleasant.

Like stepping back in time with updated screens. They are not the biggest screens but all the seats are close enough it does not matter. Place is beautiful!

Friendly staff, cheap tickets, great sound and picture quality.

We visited the Illinois Theater this afternoon. It had been a while since we had been there. The staff was very friendly and the theater was clean. The prices were very reasonable. I dont know if it was just a fluke but the movie we selected didnt play any advertisements before the movie, just trailers. That alone made it worth seeing a show there. They also turned the lights all the way down during the show. Thank you for a nice afternoon movie.

Great atmosphere, prices, friendly staff

Staff are happy to help you and the deals they have with popcorn and a drink are good to see when you get your tickets. Always had a wonderful time with this theater

We will only go to movies at this theater. We wait until this specific one has the movie we want to see. For a family of 4 to get tickets & each have their own popcorn and drink the price comes to around $30!!! You cannot beat that! If we were to go to RMC it would easily cost us $80. The Illinois theater’s new owners are awesome. Everyone is friendly and it’s clean.

Such a wonderful hometown theater!.You cant beat the price,which included popcorn and a drink!. Service was very friendly. Very comfortable seating.

Best place ever

I went to their pancake show with my little one and it blew me away. All of the employee’s were VERY polite and the prices were mind boggling. 8 bucks for a ticket/movie/popcorn AND pancakes?!? It was a dream. Will go here from now on.

Impressive. I had never seen the lion king, well the new one was great and the food and service was awesome. Cool staff and great vibe.

Went to see Jumanji with my grandfather the day after Christmas. Our theater was so tiny! The screen was like half the size of a semi trailer, so disappointing. The seating was also horrible. The chairs themselves were fine, nothing great, but because our theater was so small and narrow, the only decent seats were the back 4 rows. As a result, everyone had to crowd in the back. The popcorn and drink that are supposedly such a good deal with entry, are tiny. I finished my popcorn in like 20 minutes and went out to buy another tiny one for 3 dollars. Then, I come to find out before the movie starts its 1 dollar refills theres not a lot of selections for any kind of refreshment, its pretty sad. Its been a long time since Ive tried a movie theater other than the RMC in South Jacksonville or the AMC in Springfield, but I guess Ill just stick with them, nothing else can match the quality.

Great theater... But, if you have mobility issues, make sure your movie is on the lower level.

I loved the overall experience. Very nice workers. Clean enviroment. Good popcorn. And the 8 dollar deal cant be beat. Plus i love that they have sensory days.

What a great place to bring the family. Always a good variety of movies and best part is the price.

Cant wait to go back! Havent been to a movie in years. Cant bring myself to pay for price of ticket and food. Illinois Theatre has a great movie deal. Owner came in before the movie and stated that he didnt want to keep us all afternoon so we only had 2 previews. Had a great time for an affordable price.

Friendly staff great price

Very affordable, $8.00 for movie, drink and popcorn. Staff is very pleasant and they only show 2 trailers before the movie. Family friendly!

A really nice small town movie theater. Go for a matinee and you can see current movies for less than it costs for a movie rental at some places. The theater is anyways clean, the staff is airways helpful and the movie selections are always great!

Great place. Service was awsome. And to all the people. ( YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE) that leave all the filthy nasty messes after the movie is over are horrible people and I would hate to see the way you live at home. The employees there are to provide you with great service. Not to be your mom!! Please show some respect for other people and dont be so nasty in public.

Comfy seats and cold drinks!

Great service, friendly workers,and really great prices. The movie only had 2 previews and the sound was great. The theatre was a little cold, but other than that it was a great experience!

Went for the first time since the theater had been sold about a month ago. We loved the value of the best movie deal (ticket, drink, and small popcorn for $8) and the service. The manager greeted us in the lobby and introduced the film. Great experience and makes me want to come back soon.

People are super friendly and helpful, their prices are cheap and the quality is tremendous. Definitely going back again.

First run movies in a great location in downtown Jacksonville. Friendly staff. Management provides seasonal specials for kids, seniors, etc. Closed caption movies are available from time to time.

Popcorn and drink prices are so much more reasonable then other theatres.

Very simplistic, reasonable and enjoyable place to go for. Staff is very genuinely polite and kind. I will definitely give them a visit again.

Loved it. Seats were comfortable and it was not crowded so there plenty of elbow room.

Reasonable prices great movies and theater

Its great since its close to town, but all the new movies take a week to even show up. So if I want to watch something new Id have to go far.

They are affordable and the theaters are clean. They have movie deals that include popcorn and soda. The seats are comfortable and the staff are very friendly.

Great price good movies and friendly services

Its a good place to bring the family and catch a movie for cheap!!

I always have a great experience.

Small. Movie was good

Great prices and movie selection. Plenty of snack choices.

Bargain prices with very good movies.

Fantastic place havi been going since I was a teenager and now my teenagers go there .

Comfortable seats and reasonably priced considering other theaters overcharge on snacks.

Movie and snacks/service was good. I dont like the stairs,however.

Once a single large theater with balcony, this theater now has five smaller screens of various sizes, some on the upper level, and some with stadium seating. There have been upgrades to improve handicap access and better seating options Including recliners. A decent concession stand with fresh popcorn, and prices are tolerable. A traditional/classic setting to see a movie.

Jacksonville, IL is fortunate to have this gem of a theater. Through the years I have seen improvements continue in customer service and renovations to this classic entertainment venue. Bad movies are sometimes inevitable but definitely not a bad theater. It you want a movie experience with a touch of nostalgia, Illinois Theatre is definitely an enjoyable choice.

The price is great and only 5 buck for a soda and popcorn

Great value and friendly staff, i will definately be back to see more movies even though its a 40min drive

Small but mighty!!! Love this place. People are always nice and helpful. And they dress up for star wars

Great theater! Super friendly staff, always clean, and very affordable!

The seats where comfortable and recline. It is very affordable when you can get your drink and popcorn for $10.

Wonderful atmosphere and I love the $5 movie with the $3 add on for popcorn and drink.

Best value for movie theatres around.

Great value for a family activity!

Amazing prices, pleasant staff, comfortable seating, family friendly

My husband and I love this theatre. The staff is always super friendly and we love the ambience of the place. We will continue to frequent the place for many years to come.

Really good prices and everyone is friendly

Great little theater. Reminds me of going to the movies when I was a kid. Much cozier than the big chain theaters. Comfy seats and great picture and sound.

Great prices and clean theater

Better chairs then Springfields movie theater. Thats saying a lot!

Service is super friendly! and you cant really beat the price!

Its an older theater but they keep up modern times with the projectors and seating, and thats what its all about anyways so its a great place!

Very clean. Friendly staff. Really enjoyed myself

Good price, but uncomfortable seating.

I went for the first time this weekend and was surprised with that it had stadium seating! I will definitely be coming back.

Always luv the Summer Series !! Easy fun time with the kids !!!

Old school theater in the old Town square area of Jacksonville. A multi theater, Offering the latest releases weekly and affordable with a quaint atmosphere.

Very good prices on tickets, candy, popcorn and sodas. They show current movies.

Non expensive and is cheaper than most places for movies. Would recommend to anyone

Has a nice nostalgic feel to the way the theater is set up.

Ive been going here sinve I was a kid and still love it

Saw Peter Rabbit, great family movie.

Amazed by the customer service received by a strange fellow, I believe his name was Jordan. Nice moves

Nice prices, clean and friendly

Great service but we went in wrong theater place because they did not make it clear

Great older theater. Hate the upstairs theaters but the main floor is awesome

Great old time feel movie theater

Great little secret of the town!

$8 movie deal includes popcorn and soda

It was cold, movie was o.k., prices too high for someone living on social security. Guess Im getting old.

Love the feeling in there
