- Helene SHouston, TX1,949 contributionsNice shopping center. Make sure to get your parking validated when you check out. Thanks to Laura from Texas for helping us get organized at The Container Store.
Hint: sign up for a 20% discount for college students at The Container Store for back to school in August.Written August 14, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- IrinaUnited States14,677 contributionsLandmark's Century Center Cinema is an interesting and quite historic venue to visit. The theater opened to public in 1925 as Diversey Theatre. Like many other similar establishments in the city, it was remodeled and renamed in 1930, becoming the Century Theatre. In 1973 the theatre was closed, and later rebuilt into the Century Shopping Center.
After the upper floors of the mall were converted into a new, seven-screen art house cinema in 2000, it started to be operated by The Landmark Theatres. What a history in the name. The theatre building was again renovated in 2015. The facade of the building looks so beautiful! And that attracted our attention, when we stopped at the cinema on N Clark Street in the Lake View neighborhood of Lincoln Park.
Nowadays, the theatre indoors is absolutely modern, the cinema has all-stadium seating, with premium recliner seats. What also distinguishes this cinema and makes it unique: it showcases independent and foreign language films. These days it is the films nominated for Oscars 2024, showtimes are perfectly displayed in the spacious ground floor of the center.
We didn't have time that day to see a film, but I am glad, that we had a chance to learn and see, how the history looks in modern times: just lovely.Written February 26, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The staff were friendly and the concession items were what I expected. The reclining seating was comfortable and the sound/picture quality was excellent, especially the Dolby theater with it's extra vibrations in the seating to add to the movie experience. There is no (or practically non-existent) street parking in the area however, there is a parking entrance on Grand Ave at the rear of the building (not sure if the theater validates for parking or not). I would recommend this place as a good spot to catch a show.Written July 17, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- hungry_eyeChicago, IL124 contributionsAmazing films from around the globe. So many festivals featuring a country. Opening night receptions, Q & A events with directors and actors. Location can’t be beat. Membership is a seductive savings to return often. And a concession that even offers cappuccino to cocktails, even oat milk. Incredible staff always at your service.Written March 7, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Vacation_CommanderMuncie, IN1,227 contributionsAs a Stubbs member, I have been to several different AMC theaters. Quality-wise, this was on par with the others.
It could have used a good cleaning, the Freestyle machine on the top floor had warm pop, but the seats were comfy and the movie looked and sounded great.
I also thought it was neat that my movie was on the third floor, so you can look down on the street before you walk in.Written September 10, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The reclining chairs are super comfortable and the theaters have nice screens. The only con is the cost of food and drinks.Written July 20, 2016This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Dude ManChicago, IL510 contributionsI love the ArcLight Cinemas Theatre! It is always very clean and the popcorn is tasty! They pay close attention to the picture and sound quality in the theatre which is great! The seats are comfy too. It is expensive per ticket though.Written February 8, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Nelson M1 contributionLast night went to see Den of Thieves and as l was in line a customer was very rude to a staff name Sirena Smith. She is the manager there. I observed the whole situation and the customer was rude but the manager handled it calmly with no disrespect towards the guest.Written January 15, 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Allen727286Dallas, TX310 contributionsMy first time at Profiles. My wife and I were blown away. We see about 10 shows a year. This was terrific. And Darrell Cox was amazing to watch. He so inhabited the role and was at once the star but the key support for all the other roles that it was magic to watch. Great play with a wonderful cast. Delightful time. Oh and its 3 hours and it hardly felt like half that.Written March 30, 2016This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Aleksandra M1 contributionWe called their customer service to move the 3 tickets from Sunday to today. The guy didn’t confirm that it’s done so when we came today they didn’t have my name in the system so I had to wait 30 minutes for the manager Dena to come and give me 2 tickets (i paid for 3). Finally I got them, got late for the movie and when we wanted to order food we’re told we can’ t do it since we’re late (due their fault). We explain the situation to the waiter, she’s rude, but she takes our order. Once the movie’s finished, we’re charged 2 times for the food. We go to complaint and the manager starts screaming to us, won’t let us talk, putting her head down to the table while talking to us. I have never experienced worst customer service. The whole crew was so rude and unpolite. I’m so dissapointed.Written December 26, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- JazzySharChicago, IL121 contributionsI can support your business by bringing 21 of my friends to your Theatre for a Best Man Holiday Girl's Night Out; however, after paying a vendor fee for a table, I can't see the movie with my friends, you do not provide the vendors with any food, you didn't announce the vendor market to drive people out the vendor tables, and you don't thank you for supporting YOUR business!!!
Just void of graciousness, professionalism, and appreciation!!
You never know who knows who; treat people like you would want to be treated! When you're trying to figure out how to keep the lights on; remember how you've treated the people who have supported your business!
