We saw "Under the Sea" Excellent show, with educational info about sea creatures. A bit heavy on the "save the oceans" propaganda. Could have been a bit more light hearted, considering this theater is primarily in a tourist area for vacationers. The pictures they take of you as you enter are fun. Half price for a different second show within... more

This place is a must to go to if your in MB. It is a little pricey but everyone needs to see this at least once. I was amazed at how real it looked. Sound was superior and the huge screen was nice. more

I was concerned that my money would go to waste but boy was I wrong. I've been all over the country to amusement parks far and wide, and people need to understand that this IMAX theatre is not an amusement park attraction. It's not a motion-simulator either. This is an educational IMAX 3d under the sea. We expected nothing going... more

Rude employees, and a movie that we paid 16 bucks a piece to see only to have the last 10 minutes be unwatchable. Tried to contact the theater the next day and was given the runaround and never responded to. Save your hard earned dollars and do something else. more

My husband and I went to Myrtle Beach for our Honeymoon last June. I love Imax theatres and really wanted to try this one. We really wanted to see the one on sharks or the other under water one, but unfortunately neither of them fit our schedule. We saw the Safari one as well. It wasn't the best one I've... more

SKIP THIS ATTRACTION. .Employees - including the management are unprofessional, incompetent, liars and extremely rude. On the way out of a movie with my kids who are 7 & 8 yrs old an employee, who later claimed she was a retail sales manager, called me White Trash behind my back. When I confronted her she refused to give her name... more

Always a great show. How can you go wrong? Huge screen, great sound system. As it takes place, you are in the back of an open-air Jeep, driven by your professional guide and trackers. Beautiful and entertaining and even educational. And, I disagree, well worth the $8.00 admission price! more

I watched something about an African Safari at the IMAX, it took you on a nice tour of Africa and showed you animals in the wild. Speaking for teenagers, it wasn't an adventurous experience, it was educational, a good social studies/history escapade. I enjoyed it but I don't think I want to pay $8 per person to go back. more
