Like most AMC locations, this theater offers reserved seating and concessions online ordering. Some screens are RealD 3D capable and 2 of the 24 auditoriums are large format, including an IMAX with Laser (1.9:1 ratio) and a Dolby Cinema (featuring recliners).
I went to the IMAX website on this theatre and I was right It was being ugraded to Laser IMAX
The IMAX here seems to be closed looks like its being upgraded to Laser IMAX.
Ayy I was in Aventura a few weeks back
This opened on August 7th, 1998. Grand opening ad in the photo section. Google reviews as of March, 17 is 3.8 (76 percent).
4,200 seats this theatre has
Yes this is a stadium seating theatre and the projection and sound are decent but the place is dirty, from the bathrooms to the concession stands. Its seems that the manager at this facility doesn’t walk thru the place, trash cans filled to capacity at the theatre entrances, at the drink machines and the bathrooms. The condiment area was completely empty and a film of who knows what kind of sticky liquid all over the counter. At many AMC theaters, when you purchase tickets on your phone you can walk right up to the ticket taker and get your tickets, not so here. You have to stand in a line at customer service to get them. I am a stockholder since the IPO and this place is not up to snuff with other AMC theaters I have patronized. I posted pictures of the disgusting bathrooms.
Although I didn’t live too close to this theater, I’d occasionally catch a flick here since I had a family member who worked at the mall. Although I peeked in the lobby when I was here a couple of weeks ago, the last time I saw a movie here was 2007, since I no longer live as close to Aventura as I did back then.
I go to this theatre mainly for the IMAX experience. Breaking every rule of proper seating, I usually go in the daytime in the second week of the film after opening, and sit in the first row of the platform directly behind the wheelchair ramp and seats. I am usually one of maybe a dozen people in the theatre, and weekday audiences are much better than the raucous circus freaks that come in at night and spend 2 hours texting at a film that costs about $19 (explain how needy a person must be to text throughout a film). Sitting that close, I am immersed by the IMAX experience, sound and picture, and the daytime crowd disappears. The ETX screen next door is almost as good as IMAX ….. almost. Previously, in South Florida, the 2 IMAX screens were in South Miami in another AMC complex, and at the Ft. Lauderdale Museum and Discovery Center (but that theatre is waaaaay not deep, and stadium seating must be 25 feet up from front to back). Not a natural configuration, IMHO.
The Aventura 24 was constructed in 1998. its always been a pretty well kept cinema (due to the fact its in Aventura lol)I remember this location opening in the middle of AMC’s megaplex expansion phase.
The theatre is one the first to feature ‘Auro-3D’ 11.1 channel sound – I’m assuming it’s on the ETX screen – anyone care to verify.
This theatre is one the busiest in the state. It has an IMAX THEATRE and also an ETX theatre with premium sound/projection
This opened in 1998.
