On wednesdays the tickets are $5 and change. One of the consession stand employees looks like Jennifer Lopez and is polite. There is a restaurant and video games. It has a great atmosphere. A lot of parking space. It is located in a shpping center.

Went to see the Expendables and halfway through the movie the screen turned complete white and you can clearly notice the movie had finished from the reel. The theater was packed and a dozen or so people got up including myself and went out to find the manager. I finally found the manager 5 min later only to be confronted in a defensive manner with an extremely rude attitude. I just asked the manager Mike ( who happens to actually be one of the theater owners) what happened he snapped at us saying that is the way it is supposed to be. (there were about 5 of us there at the time) I said a screen turning completely white is not the way it is supposed to be. He said there were two reels and that I did not miss any parts of the movie. Then he came up towards me and said in an antagonistic way " you want to bet $10,000? I said yes I’ll bet you twenty. He walked away and I end up missing over 5 minutes of the movie and the whole theater did miss parts of the movie as well. It was obvious that the person in charge of switching on the other reel to make a seamless transition apparently was not doing their job!!!!!!!! The proper thing to do Instead of the owner snapping at us and becoming defensive and rude should have just acknowledge it was the theaters fault and just apologize instead of popping a bad attitude. I don’t care if it was wacky Wednesday the only thing wacky was the theater owner Mike S !!!!!!!!!!!! I will never go back again!!!!!!!!! I rather pay a few bucks more to a theater that actually cares about their patrons!
