ArcLight Cinemas Santa Monica

After arranging ample financing at a moderate interest rate to pay the ticket price, the movie-going experience was exceptional. Eat before you enter due to the fact that food service is limited (but tasty). In addition, it was nice having someone welcome us to the theatre even if the seats do not recline. A good place to invest that year-end bonus.

Awsome theater! Super clean, friendly staff and excellent art on the walls.

This place never disappoints. You can spend a whole day here! Love that you can buy tickets on a touch screen instead of staying in line! It’s inside a shopping center in the heart of Santa Monica, right off the 3rd St Promenade.
It is spacious, beautiful, clean, modern, and staffed with friendly faces.

Just saw Bohemian Rhapsody, it was amazing. If you haven’t seen it, you absolutely must! I hardly ever see a really good movie these days!
Right outside the doors are restaurants and coffee spots, so you have plenty options if you don’t like movie theatre food!

Seats were very comfortable. The whole theater was spotless clean.

One of my favorite theatres. Clean bathrooms, great bar, not too big of auditoriums, which I really like.....but not too small either. Very comfy seats. Never too busy. Great service. Great all around.

ArcLight knows how it's done! Great location and clean theaters, this is a good place to catch a flick. The seats are comfortable, and the film presentation is excellent. I also cannot express enough appreciation for the fact that they play no ads and only a few trailers (unlike a certain other red-dotted, Coca-Cola peddling theater chain).

My only slight complaint is that, at least in some of the theaters, the screen is very high. I recommend sitting AT LEAST halfway back, or you'll be straining your neck the whole time.

Good time every time we come here. seats are comfy. the popcorn is buttery. The staff are welcoming. They make you feel right at home. I like coming her very much..

ArcLight Cinemas are by far my favorite theaters. Clean, quiet and you don't watch half an hour of commercials. Three to four relevant trailers and it's movie time! Stadium seating and a bar next to concessions. Only complaint with the Santa Monica location is no parking validation but that's an insatiable City issue not the theater's fault.

Classy theater with comfy seats, and state of the art screens and sound. Widescreen theaters are fantastic. Don't be late tho, they have a somewhat nonsensical policy about late arrivals not being aloud to enter.

I am not a big movie goer, there are reasons for that. However, this place I will consider returning to again if a descent movie is playing. Reasons: I could get hot tea here, they show no stupid commercials and only a few previews. They also have a bar, not that I need it, but if you come here with a diverse group of friends everyone gets what they like to drink.

Well priced tickets and excellent customer service! I worked here so I know how it is behind the counter as in front. It's all the same, no gimmicks or scams, just high prices for the bougie and luxurious design. I can tell that Arclight is doing extremely well in the "competition" against AMC and other theaters. Awesome!

This is the nicest cinema I've ever been to. The service was great super fast and polite and the PERFECT amount of extra butter on my popcorn. I think they serve alcohol too which is rare.

Really nice theater. The prices are on the slightly on the high side, but the general comfort and atmosphere are more than worth it. The introduction before each movie is nice too.

Excellent customer service, I've been here 4 times and staff is always on top of it. Definitely the best movie theater I've been to. Also good picture/sound.

love coming here, they are always on top of it all. They make sure that the seats are clean. The popcorn is oh so good. The staff are really nice and helpful

I got to see the whole movie by myself for the price of a Senior ticket! The popcorn was good! The Mango pineapple smoothie was delicious! Amazing!

- I've viewed Bad Boys For Life (3), and a few other movies here.
- This theater allows alcoholic beverages to be consumed while viewing the picture. A very nice touch. Enjoy. 🥂

My favorite theater chain ever! They don't show many previews... No ads... Great bar... Comfy seats... Good points rewards
Love em!

Really nice, they have quite small cinemas, and you can buy your tickets through a kiosk if you want to be quick. Nice bar and lounge too, you can bring beer into the cinema with you

The theaters are really nice. The seats are comfortable and you don't feel weird sitting next to a stranger because of how the chairs are arranged.
