NCG Monroe was my favorite cinema until COVID 19 hit. Then the theatre decided to make some big changes. Right from the start at the register you realize things are not the same. Prices seem higher and they ask you to pick normal or premium seats, so because I did not want to pay an extra 2 dollars per ticket for premium seats me and my wife decided to get the normal tickets. Biggest mistake of the night, when they say premium seats they mean regular reclining and soft chairs nothing special, but the alternative the “regular” seats are like sitting on card board, they have no back support, no leg rests, and overall my body hurt when getting up after 2 hours. They also apparently like the idea of making it very clear by segregating the “premium seats” to the best positions in the theatre. Then we sit down to watch the movie we paid 20 dollars to see and they leave the door open the entire time so that you hear the loud action movie Next door the whole time. I honestly feel like I watched 2 movies at the same time. So my honest opinion is that everyone is hurting right now to COVID 19 and this theatre seems to be doubling down on reaching directly into their consumers pockets and attempting to steal more and more money, instead of uniting everyone over the amazing past time of seeing a movie. I cannot and will not ever recommend or attend a movie at this theatre again, completely disappointed!

Went here with my kids this past weekend . My daughter and her friend wanted to see a different movie than my son and I but since she isnt 16 they wouldnt allow us to split up like we wanted to. Even after I showed proof of her age and giving permission to see the movie they still wouldnt allow it .so we all had to watch the same movie. Price is cheap but if you want to watch a different movie then your kids better go in the day time. Wont be back for this reason.we drive 45 min to this theater. Wish they would have specified on the website about the rules of under 16 no admitting without an adult to be with you the entire time.

I love this theatre. No one directly behind you talking or kicking your chair based on the recliner style seating. It does run a little cold so we sometimes bring a light blanket but I actually enjoy that.

Prices are normal for movie theaters. Normally clean and the snacks are great. Biggest plus for me is that you get to put your own butter and salt on your popcorn!

I love this movie theater its so nice everyones friendly. Movies are always better on a giant screen me&my fiance went to once a couple weeks ago and watch fantasy island we had a great time, the snacks are good only thing we didnt like was we had to keep moving chairs because the recliner parts were broken.

Been going here since I was a little kid. Seating is comfortable. But sometimes its so cold inside even in the summer that it makes you wanna sleep instead of watching the movie.

Clean facility, not great on the guest experience though. We were asked after paying $28 and some change if we had a loyalty card,this was our first time here, when we asked if we could get credit for the $28 we just spent we were told NO because the manager that rang us through the computer and charged us $28 then asked if we had a loyalty card would not give the points for the money spent! Im not complaining about the $28 dollars, if your going to offer a loyalty card after you finish the transaction and not give the points for the money just spent,then dont offer it up at all!I would like to go back and enjoy the theater again,I would also like to fat the points for the money already spent.

My favorite movie theater to go to. The only reason they are getting 4 stars is because they need to do more maintenance on the reclining seats. Alot of them are broke and seem to stay that way for quite a while.

This is my favorite place to go to when you want to go watcha movie. Free popcorn refills and free drink refills. The pricing is good and the staff makes you feel welcomed. This is my first pick when i want to go see a movie.

I hate the recliners but you can not beat the free refills on popcorn and drinks! And since I live nearby, it beats going to Sun Valley. Employees are always friendly and helpful.

One of my favorite theaters! Reclining seats, unlimited refills on drinks and popcorn, free movies throughout the year, and discounts every Tuesday.

The movie was great. The place was clean, even the restrooms. There were only two issues I had. The regular popcorn for $5 is ridiculous. The sound on the movie was too loud. I had in earplugs and it was still loud to me.

I.remember when this was the place. When I was a child this place was always packed and brimming and they had a arcade. As anyone around the area knows it closed down for several years and has only been open recently.This new place is great! Its not the fun packed like it was in the 90s and thats not bad. The place is very clean and organized. They have several different food options. A large popcorn is only 6 dollars and they have collectible popcorn buckets and drinks. I got a large popcorn and drink for 15 bucks and the drinks are free refills. They have 4 coca cola freestyle machines.The best part is the cinema we went to had reclining seats and lots of space and the seats were very nice.The only downside I say is the lobby is well pretty boring. I miss the fan faire of movie lobbies.

This theater is a fresh breathe of air for theaters but also for Monroe. The prices are great. The drinks and popcorn are worth buying because of the free refills. The seats are comfortable. They keep the theater clean. Thanks NCG for coming to Monroe.

Always good. Theater is clean, seats recline and are nice. Doesnt have all the bells and whistles that bigger theaters have but less crowd and cheaper prices make all the difference.

I went there for my granddaughters birthday party. They have a party room that you must reserve but you bring in your decorations, table covers and gifts. While you are enjoying the movie in the reclining seats they decorate the party room for you and even blow up the balloons! Also they lock the door so no one else can get in. I highly recommend this theater!!

I really like this theater. Comfortable reclining seats. Not too close to screen, so if you happen to get stuck in front row, you can still enjoy the film.

This theater was actually quite good the movie was excellent that we saw because me and my buddy saw the mule and the seats were very comfortable granted they arent the electronic recliners. But they did recline and there were quite comfortable plus the movie theater was very clean which is really what matters. Also the people that work there were also very nice and very helpful.

Review №49

The seating is just old chairs from your grandfathers house, and its placed flat on the ground, so if youre not in the first rows you dont have a good view. On the upside the popcorn is cheaper and better than normal theaters. Prices are slightly cheaper than a normal theater, but you get what you pay for. Place is a little dingy and could use a good cleaning and sprucing up...

I had a terrible experience at NCG last week! NCG is my closest theater but from now on, Ill be driving the extra miles to avoid this place. Two teenagers were talking the whole time of the movie and absolutely nothing was done about it! When I complained, I was made to feel like the bad guy! The manager even said for me not to shhhh them. He did not offer me a refund, a free movie or try to stop the talking! I left before the movie was over very upset. The two teenagers got free reign to do whatever they wanted!

Our favorite movie theater! We love the refillable snacks. I only gave 3 stars because the prices have increased. I took 4 people to a movie and it was over $50 for a matinee, drinks, popcorn and 1 pretzel. We will cautiously watch for coupons and other theater prices.

Review №71

Couldn’t hear my movie thanks to the group in front of me and beside me. Asked the staff the please do something about the noise. They told me “They couldn’t do anything about it.” What kind of theater doesn’t ensure their customers can hear the film they paid for. When the talking continued I complained again, to which I was told by a smug security guard, “It’s a Friday night and it’s a thriller, what did you expect?” To which I replied, “To be able to hear the movie I paid to see and not have someone narrarate the film next to me while on their phone with the brightness turned up all the way.” I was then told to leave the property. At least they gave me a refund. Avoid this theater at all costs.

I would have gave this more stars, but to change what made your movie theatre unique makes you no different than any other movie theatre. The highlight of this place was their awesome combo deals, and the collector cups and popcorn containers. While you may still have the collectables you did away with the combos that attracted new and old customers. All we got were the same old $5 here $6 there. The combos use to be $15-$18 for 2 large drinks and a large popcorn ($28 with tickets). Now you are looking close to $40 for your date nigh. The combos were the reason to go.

Smaller cinema with cheaper prices to match. This theater offers a good balance, its a bit older, but the chairs are comfy, the screen looks good, and it sounds good. Great balance of economy and quality.

I do you want to say that I have always loved the new Monroe movie theatre but they need to get their chairs fixed because half of them dont work and its very uncomfortable LOL. I think sometimes they over pack the theater and its very hard to find seat for us to sit together. But all in all, it was a great experience to see the movie with my kids the Grinch
