This theater does great business, defiantly one of AMCs gems. From the AMC marque outside the theater, to the pool hall and bar located inside. It’s sad that the AMC/Loews a few blocks down can’t get anywhere near this theaters business. Chicago loves there quality, ALOT.
The River East 21 opened in the fall of 2002 and the McClurg Court Cinemas closed at the end of summer, 2003.
