I waited in line for an hour to see Inside Out 2, not because it was sold out, but because this theater still operates like it’s a district checkpoint in The Hunger Games. It’s like this every time. I’m a local so you’d think I’d get used to it, but no… No online ticketing. Just one slow-moving line to buy your ticket, followed by another line to get your popcorn (sometimes, other times you can pay for the ticket and concessions together, make up your mind), while tributes around you begin to mentally prepare for the arena (aka the screening room). By the time I got my popcorn, I had less Joy than Riley in puberty. There’s no app, no reserved seating and not a single person in a hurry. You stand there and pray you get in before the movie starts — and maybe before you turn to dust. It’s 2025. I shouldn’t feel like I’m waiting for bread rations. Soda machine? In your dreams. They have like 4 options and 2 of them are Coke. Mostly ice and disappointment. If you get napkins and a working straw, you’ve won.
Inside the theater: this is where hope goes to die. The seats are ripped to shreds — I’m talking leather peeled open like overcooked bacon. The armrests are either loose, sticky, or one strong elbow away from detaching entirely. I literally had a seat fall apart underneath me once. The walls? Torn fabric, hanging like the place just survived a werewolf attack. Cleanliness? Nonexistent. It still looks like the Minecraft matinee crowd is currently there.
You want privacy in the bathroom? Too bad. No locks on the stall. Bring a friend to stand guard or brace the door with your forehead like a SWAT team breacher. Toilet paper is hit or miss. Soap? LOL. The only thing more broken than the paper towel dispenser is your spirit by this point.
This theater has zero competition and it shows. No incentive to improve, no effort to evolve, just one rundown, duct-taped shell of a theater raking in cash because there’s nowhere else to go. I’ll still be there opening night for Fantastic Four: First Steps… because I have no self-control and the MCU owns my soul. But just know: I’m not there for the “theater experience.” I’m there in spite of it. One star — only because I can’t give it less. The only thing invisible in this place is the management’s pride.

It was an experience that’s for sure. We were bored and wanted something to do so we decided to go to a movie. And it was not what we were expecting. The sound quality was just like if I watched it at home. And the seats were quite uncomfortable. The person up front had no customer service and didn’t know how to make people feel welcome. I think if you are looking for something to go and relax. But it is not quite there for the theater experience.
I understand it being a small town and not having much funds but being friendly doesn’t cost you a dime

This place doesn't deserve most of the complaints it gets from tourists who are visiting with warped expectations. This is a small town we live in, this is a small town theater experience.
It is not a glammed up corporate behemoth of a megaplex, there are a few screens, there is one ticket register, and yes, they kind of pressure you into buying popcorn and drinks because how else are they going to keep the business afloat when there is rarely a time that the theater is more than half full?
You're in the middle of nowhere in the Utah desert, and you can still see the latest releases of movies. That's pretty sweet, and that is why this place gets five stars from me. Check your expectations at the door and enjoy the show!

It was one of the best priced theaters I have been to in a long time. Super friendly staff, comfortable chairs.

Worst movie theater experience I’ve ever had.
The concessions/ticketing process is moronic. The line starts at the door, so if you are even third in line, you will be standing outside in the blazing heat while you wait.
You must buy your tickets in the same line as concessions so you get to wait even if you don’t want any.
We were scheduled to see The Watchers which is PG-13. Somehow the employees allowed a couple kids who were clearly under 13 and very evident by the fact they turned their phone flashlights on about 15 times. They continued giggling, talking and playing videos on their phones.
The adults behind us were chatting in a normal volume, not even attempting to whisper. A few more kids in the back just talking normally and watching phone videos. Very bizarre. I’m a frequent movie goer in multiple states and I’ve never seen this.
We ended up switching over to furiosa after 20 minutes of the watchers being ruined. The problem with furiosa is the volume was incredibly low. Other than that, it was fine.
Price was good for the ticket but that’s about the only positive thing about it.
The theater is fine if you are just taking your kids and/or don’t intend to pay attention to the movie.

They weren't showing the movie (Challengers) they have listed on their marquee and website. They ran out of popcorn with only 2 movies playing. They also wouldn't let us bring in an expensive bike that we didn't want to leave in the car because they could "get sued". This was all on a Wednesday night.

For the $50 we paid for 3 people to go to a movie and get popcorn on a weeknight it was disappointing. The soda was at least good. Popcorn was weird tasting and as expensive as the big theaters in the "big city". The theater showing our movie had a very weak speaker system. I guess I've been spoiled by the wonderful Kaysville Theater. Moab should go visit the Kaysville Theater and get some training on how a small town theater can still be awesome!
