As An Ex-Employee. I decided to randomly read the reviews that there is for my old work place, and stumbled across some ridicoulous complaints. I do understand that the ticket prices are hight after 4 on weekends and holidays, but the thing is they only raised it one dollar from it's original 9 dollar ticket price before. Secondly, the lowered the weekday price and matinee prices on weekends to only 5 dollars anytime. (as long as it's not a holiday). Thirdly, if the prices bother you so badly but you still want to go to AMC, because it it a pretty amazing theater, then go to CostCo and get the golden passes that they sell there for 7.50 a piece. Those are good anytime for any move, new or old. Also ask your human resources at your work if they give out any golden or silver passes at your work. Those make it free, the silver however, you have to wait 2 weeks after the movie has been out to get it for free, but those silver tickets are cheaper. If you have an issue with the food prices, bring your own food in! Come on, we do not care as long as it doesn't have an aroma that will disturb the other guests in the theater(ex. pizza, chicken). Drinks? There's a vending machine on the corner of the arbor lakes mall not even 200ft from the front door of AMC! Stuff it down your pants. Otherwise, just get it there, I think it's the whole experience when you go to the theater to at least spring for the popcorn for your date. Anyway, if there's an issue within the theater contact an employee and we will give them a warning, if it continues, we will kick them out, no refund. If you want to get deals for spending your money on tickets or even on the tickets(also there's coupons in the GoldenC books good for full price movies)then get the AMC moviewatcher card, it's free and you get free popcorn, snacks, and even movies from using it when you buy your tickets. The website that you check for ACCURATE movie times is at the amc theatres web page. NOT ANYWHERE ELSE THEY ARE 3RD PARTY! Enjoy your movie!

STAY AWAY ON WEEKENDS. Pricing policy is terrible! No senior discounts all weekend! We can go to the same movies for less money, and not much farther to drive, at Plymouth Mann or Willow Creek. We, too, have experienced rude teen-age audience behavior.

$10 movie at 430pm. My gf and I went here, to a movie today, Sunday, for a 430pm showing of a PG movie. The price irked me, as seen below. This is my first review-but I read the other reviews before I went to this theater.

Also; and perhaps somewhat out of the theaters control: a couple was there with their young child (Kids movie-Kung Fu Panda)-but with a baby also! Baby kept crying and mother didn't take it out of the theater-many of us had to keep 'shushing' loudly. There should be some sort of rule that children under age 3 should only be allowed to go to movies on certain days. I'm not anti-children-It's disrupting, rude, and irresponsible!

CONS: PRICE: Sunday afternoon movie at 430pm, was 10 dollars! For one person!? I immediately made a note to self: never come here again-only for the reason of price-which may not be the theaters direct fault--but it hurt my wallet. I thought it would be cheaper if it was before 5 or 6pm. Candy was pretty expensive-med pop and med popcorn was 10 dollars! I did have the dealio of milk duds(gas station price of $.99), small popcorn, and small drink for $7.50 (the 3 for $7.50 deal).. but I wouldn't have bought the Milk duds for $4.25 or so for a small box. And theaters wonder why people bring candy in from home!

Pros: ample/close parking, HUGE theater with many seats-not a bad seat anywhere!, kind and courteous young employees-very polite (sometimes this is hard to achieve with certain jobs) and offered cheaper deals, and explained what things were ('Cool Pack') etc..

I guess next time, I'd call ( as suggested in another review) to get prices so there aren't any 'surprises.'

AMC VS. ROGERS MUELLER....best price for the buck. AMC Arbor Lakes used to be the theater I went to for shows. However, I now go to Mueller 18 in Rogers. It is just 10 minutes from AMC. They have bargain matinees until 6:00PM everyday. So my friends and I

have switched our Friday afternoon enjoyment to the Rogers theater. It is beautiful! They have a monster screen at no extra charge. It was great seeing Pirates on it. I will not to go the AMC Maple Grove theater

again after visiting the Rogers theater. I also had different times of movies problem with AMC and thought some of the staff was rude.

emelynkay, go $#@& yourself.. This is in response to emelynkay who reviewed this theater. Believe it or not, I am the employee she is referring to. I'd like it known that those online sources that have the times of movie showings are third party sources They are in no way affiliated with AMC. They are trying to provide a service but unfortunately are often incorrect. For every shift that I have I probably deal with 30 people who are frusterated at the errors on these websites and looking to blame someone. The movie she is referring to had one showing early on in the day. For the remainder of that day a different movie was played in that theater. I'm sorry if I sound incredibly irritated, but it may that I just told the person in front of you the same thing. If you call 763-494-0379 an employee or manager will answer. We are all competent and have the showtimes right in front of us at all times.

I love nothing more than to be polite to someone who has been friendly and polite to me. However, I find it incredibly difficult to smile and retain a friendly tone when a lunatic is screaming at me for something that is not my fault. Also, if they cannot comprehend the reasons as to why there is not a show at the time they think there is a show then things get pretty stupid pretty fast.
