I went in the afternoon on Thanksgiving day. The movie didnt qualify for the special matinee price ($5) because if its a Sony picture and is a recent release its $10, which is a good price anyway. Many seats available at that time, and the seats were comfortable. It is located on the top level of the Terrace Plaza. Nice area, nice shopping.

Not a significant theater but its fantastic! The staff is extremely friendly and the prices on Tuesday and Thursday’s costs are fantastic at $5. You absolutely must receive the benefits card. Points accumulate very quickly and you may use them for lots of free items like tickets and concession items. I adore this location!!!!

Most theaters chains keep going up in price but they went down! Instead of $6 on Tuesday and Thursdays they are just $5!!! Also for Seniors on Wednesdays, l even saw Magnificent Mistress of Evil opening night on Thursday, excellent better than l had expected!

Well maybe I should give it one star from my last visit seeing The Lion King, but it has nothing to do with the theater so thats why I kept the five stars. They have now switched to the assigned seating. So we bought the day off and got the very last row see. You could see the screen fine here everything fine. It was just people would open up the theater door every two minutes and that was a big distraction to watching a movie. Also, I had to get those child seat to prop me up so I could see over the people sitting in front of me because the very last row is not at an angle it is I level with the people in front of you. So it was a very uncomfortable time. But the staff there are so friendly and helpful and they even offered we could give you a ticket for a later showing if you want to come back another day cuz they were totally sold out today. So they always try to help. And its a very low cost, $6 movie where else can you get that AMC doesnt one day a week this place doesnt three days a week.

The theater reminded me of old, classic movie theaters. I felt like I stepped back in time and it was awesome. Its def not like the bigger chain theaters (i.e. Cinemark, AMC, Edwards, Arclight, etc.) it was the theater from like the 80s, or 90s. It was very nostalgic. Found this theater on Groupon and the deal covers tickets for 2 plus a free large popcorn (like the tub of popcorn), so make sure you buy a big drink to avoid getting parched during the movie. Lol. The theater attendants were friendly and helpful. The theaters were smaller but still big enough to enjoy a nice movie with the fam or friends. They theater was clean and didnt smell at all. The unique addition to this theater is that its located on the 3rd level of a plaza/center, and the view from the parking lot, where you can see torrance, san pedro, long beach is breathtaking; hence prob why they call it Starlight Terrace Theaters. Lovely theater all around. Will def be going back again.

I usually enjoy going to this theater but this particular night people were just rude. They wont stop talking and the people in front of me keeps turning on their phones flashlight. This is a 2 hour and 49 minute movie that I have to sit through. Telling people to be quiet doesnt work anymore.

Review №18

This theater is alright. Its small, dated, and the seating isnt that great so if you got someone tall or with a big head sitting in front of you then you best believe its gonna impair your view of the screen. But, they keep it clean. The ticket prices are fine, especially on their discount days (refer to their website.) The selection of movies is limited but, youll find most of the major releases to be shown here.

Review №19

Not a bad seat in the house. Very clean theater. Wide and comfortable rocking seats. Lots of room between rows. Large kids meal is a good deal. Good projection of the movie plus great sound.

Review №20

This theater is pretty cool but before there were no select seating available and recently they have been really extra when it comes to Rated-R movies. Before they would let any 10 year old see PG13 and sometimes Rated-R with no biggie but now they dont even let older kids (even some that are over 18!) get into a Rated-R screening without an ID. (I think its just some employees who are really extra, they need to fix this)

Not the biggest or fanciest theater but thats what I like about it. Cheaper than some and more friendly than others, this theater is my go-to for the area. I even joined the Starlight rewards program because I see this theater as my own. Its a part of the community and I love it for being itself.

Review №22

This is the cutest little theater I have ever been too! It has only 7-8 theaters inside, less than 15 staff members, and each theater itself has less than 30 seats. Even though its small, it keeps up with current movies, and you can still go to a concession stand and get some yummy popcorn and soda!

Not the fanciest place to watch movies. Most of the screens are on the smaller side. But their discount days more than make up for it. With a good selection of current movies you can see almost anything for relatively cheap.

Its a very nice theater with many cinemas to choose from and also kept clean. I do have two negatives #1, the cinemas are most often too cold and I need a jacket. Maybe its just me but I cant enjoy a movie when Im freezing#2, I wish they would add a burger option or pizza slice.

Great little local theater with reasonably-priced tickets. The concession prices are too high though - higher than the major chains. Their reward system is nice.

Review №43

Great little theater. Older but very clean and pretty quiet and non disruptive clientele. We try to go here or the AMC in torrance or Manhattan beach even though we live in Long Beach. The riff raff in the LBC is sure to talk through an entire film while putting their feet on the back of your seat and sneezing down your neck.So cultural!

Good idea to sign up with their Starlight Rewards program to get points for future discounts. The theater seats are comfortable and seating is assigned. Bathrooms were maintained clean and stocked. Wed is senior discounts, and Tue & Thu is general public discounts. Sat before 6pm is matinee $8 price for all.

Older, smaller theatre. Ticket prices reasonable considering what one would spend at the big chain, as usual concession stand prices jacked sky high. I did like that they had complementary flavors to add to your popcorn. Seats were comfortable.

Saw hustle at this theater. Average theater and the food, same as any other. I ran into some rude people in the theater but the manager took care of it and gave us some passes for free movies. I wouldnt go here If your expecting something luxurious but its a fair price and I really like the management.

Review №58

Great prices on their bargain days. The staff is always nice and Ive never had an issue with the movies we watch. If you check in on Yelp you get a free small popcorn or you can get $3 off any medium or large popcorn. It is a small theater so loud adults or noisy kids can be a problem but not too bad. Staff is quick to resolve most issues.

This is a great place to watch movies. The chairs are comfortable and recline. The movie tickets are very reasonable compared to other theaters; I can take the family here and not break my budget. Place is clean not smelly, and the rewards card is totally worth it, I have received free snacks and movies. The movies played here are current, not months old.

This place is humanitarian. Because of the Tuesday and Thursday special prices and the card they have for reducing prices on popcorn ECT... My friends with big families can afford to go to the movies. I also want to say that everyone who works there is helpful and courteous. Thank you for being a family orientated theater.

Pretty run of the mill theater, comfy seating. However the commercials shown during when the movie is supposed to be showing were ridiculous. Sat there for 20 minutes past start time being bombarded by loud brainwashing commercials. Probably wouldnt go again, but the movie and facilities were good.

Dated... Guess Im just partial to AMC and reclining seats with a tray. Not much to choose from at the concession stand, whole theater stuck in the early 90ies. Sound of the movie was not good either. However it was a fundraiser, thats the only reason I went. Its ok... nothing special.

Review №79

Good sound and seats are comfy enough but the A/C is set soo damn cold it took my attention off the movie more than 4 times. So I get up go to the restroom and the lobby temperature is near perfect go back into the theater and its like stepping into a broken fridge still cold but not enough to kill you. Im usually warm even in cooler temps but next time Im seeing a movie here im coming dressed for the slopes.

I love the special price on Tuesday and Thursday! Makes it possible for a Family movie night. Not a huge theater so its never impossible to get a good seat. Love that I can watch new releases without feeling I need to get a second job just to enjoy a couples night out at the movies. Love that its near by. My husband find ourselves saying hey! Wanna catch a movie? way more often than weve ever had before since we found this little theater. Hope it never changes!! The staff has been really friendly and never a line for tickets, even for primer nights. At least thats been our experience.

Extremely reasonable, nice Customer Service. The arm rests need upholstering. People should not be allowed in late on Big Movie Days, at Pirates, people were standing in front of me most of the show. This was the Best Written of the Series, I hope not the last.
