AMC North DeKalb Mall 16

If I could give it a zero I would… so sad to see what has happened to this movie theater, the mall and just the area in general. I remember this place when I was a kid and how vibrant and popular the theater and mall used to be. My last visit to the theater was with my ex and I was so excited to show her a piece of my childhood but ended up being disgusted by the state of the theater. The price of the movies was significantly lower the other theaters and I can see why! The roof was leaking and they hung a blanket over the projector to block the light from the room. Movie didn’t start on time and the guy sitting behind us literally got soaked when a part of the ceiling came down on him! We ended up leaving before the movie was over and fortunately the manager offered us a refund. Sad to say that I will never be returning to this theater unless I step in a time machine first

Not the best AMC but for the price it is a great place. Did not buy anything at the concession so I cannot comment on that but the seats for the movie were comfortable enough and you can check out the mall before the movie.

This place is awesome. It is located in an old run down mall, but the theater itself is nice and has newer comfortable seating. The employees are friendly. But the thing that makes this place so great is the price. Movies are around $ 4 during the day and $ 6 at night!!!

The ONLY reason to visit this mall is for this movie theater. I repeat, the ONLY reason. :)
The prices are amazing! Is the theater packed with the latest and greatest technology? Absolutely, not!!!
Is the theater in the best condition in regards to upkeep and cleanliness? Absolutely, not!!!
But for $ 3.99 matinée shows and $ 5.99 regular shows who cares? I don’t. :)

This is an amazing movie Theater form the price. It’s only 5.99 for first fun movies and it is very clean and well maintained. It’s great that you can see great first run movies for such a cheap price. The screens and sound are awesome!!! I recommend this theater to everyone that I know!!!

The movie theater is old and dingy but the prices are great. I think it was $ 6 at night. That’s without a Groupon or special discount. $ 4 before 4pm is amazing. I bought a few AMC gold tickets for $ 8 each and it doesn’t make sense to use them.
The seating slope is not the greatest so if you have a tall person in front of you then then it sucks. The seats themselves were decent but the concrete flooring looked diseased. It’s not the dirtiest movie theater and I didn’t expect much given the location but the price still has me floored. I think I’ll start coming here now instead of Regal 24.
Studio Movie Grill $ 6 with Groupon is still a nicer theater with slightly better seats.
Pros
Cheap
Cons
Kind of dingy, hard to find
Would I come here again?
Yes. Because I love Marshalls and that’s right next door.

Not much to add, I’ll kind of echo other users. Unbelievably cheap, not the cleanest (nor dirtiest) theater I’ve ever been to. If money was no object it wouldn’t be my first choice, but you absolutely can’t beat the value anywhere. I looked for tickets to Deadpool at Atlantic Station Regal and they were $ 16 a piece. Went here instead, $ 3.99 a piece.
Popcorn was good, the coke freestyle machines are interesting. Some of them have all the flavors, some don’t. Really not a big deal to me.

This theater has been around for quite some sometime. I really enjoyed visiting this location. The only thing that I can say is that the concession stand is very expensive. They have upgraded the seating in the theaters which makes it more comfortable and more room and drink holders. A large popcorn cost about eight dollars the small popcorn cost about six dollars for me that was a bit high. Other than that this is a great place to go and watch a nice movie.

No, this is not my first pick of theaters in the Atlanta metro but it’s definitely worth keeping in mind.
If nothing else, the ticket prices start at $ 3.99. Paying about $ 4 to see a movie in a theater with stadium seats is a great value. I brought my AMC free movie pass along with me but it didn’t make sense to use it because the ticket was so inexpensive.
This AMC was one of the only theaters in town screening Chi-​raq today. It was the movie time I wanted… in a theater with stadium seating (#6)…serving up cheese pizza and Twix. That’s all I needed but they also offered things like popcorn, nachos, ice cream, chicken fingers, hot dogs and Coca-​Cola Freestyle drinks.
A couple tips:
If you’re arriving from North Druid Hills Road and Birch, circle around to the back right side of the mall. Don’t be fooled by the glistening neon AMC 16 sign at the entrance to the food court. I parked there thinking I would be directly in front of the theater. Nope, I had to walk through the food court and past other stores to get to there. The best entrance is the one next to Marshall’s. Once you get down the hallway you’re right there.
And I know this is random but the speed bumps in the parking lot are just mirages. (Either that or the years have worn them down to nubs.) So if you’re on the cusp of missing the previews just keep your foot on the pedal and maintain your speed.

6 bucks for a movie on a Friday night? Yes, please! The picture quality is 35 mm but for the price of the movies it’s a deal.
I wish the seats would recline though.

I am hooked. I got hooked on matinees while in grad school in Wisconsin and to see a matinée at this theater at North Dekalb Mall for, like, under $ 5, is so awesome. It’s an escape from reality, a comfortable chair, a wonderful sound system and the movie that you chose to watch. I feel like it’s one of those unpretentious awesome things that are still here to enjoy so by all means go to the matinees. I’ll see you there. I won’t, but you know what I mean.

If you don’t want to break the bank then this the place for you. Movies is super cheap here tickets before 4 are $ 4.27 and after 4 are $ 6.41. The most expensive ticket is gonna be just under $ 10 for a 3D movie. This is everyday. Hello to Value Pricing. (And this isn’t every amc… Just this one. However all are undergoing price restructuring. Check online to see the prices of your local theater.) the seats are old & outdated. They need to upgrade them

Going to the theaters in Atlanta can be very expensive with tickets often starting at about $ 11 or so at many of the theaters (Atlantic Station, Regals Cinemas, etc). Throw in a larger screen, cheap 3-​D glasses, and a small popcorn, and you’re looking at over $ 20 for the evening. Like your typical, broke student, I can’t afford those prices whenever I want to watch a movie. That’s where the North Dekalb AMC comes in. It may not be the most glamorous theater around and it may be located in a shell of a mall, but the tickets are cheap and the bathrooms are clean. In my books, that’s pretty much all that matters.
On the weekdays before 4PM, tickets are about $ 4 for adults. After 4, they go up to $ 6, but that’s nothing to complain about. If there’s a small line for tickets (highly unlikely), they have 1 kiosk at the entrance from which you can either purchase tickets or print out pre-​paid ones.
One con here would be the cleanliness of the seats. Although they’re mostly acceptable, I’ve seen and avoided a few with mystery stains and popcorn kernels.

Being here makes me miss the Gwinnett theatres lol. And this Straight Outta Compton movie better be good.

I went to a movie recently, had the perfect seat and Avery rude family sat a row I front of me. Cell phones and I pads on, kids laughing at Arnold. I left and wanted a refund which I got PLUS a free movie.
People are rude everywhere
Cellphones need to be off — the 10 messages are ignored ?!? And shut up. You’re not watching a DVD at home. Management was great.

Great prices at like 6 something a person for tix. Concession stand is a bit pricey though. They have 16 theaters but they are not all created equal. And you never know what you’re gonna get. Some of the theaters have great seats and stadium levels. Others… not so much.
It’s hit and miss on the comfort of the seats, but the place is 10 min from my house and usually not crowded when I go… so that’s a huge plus.

Other than the mall being lame and all, this theater makes things better. I haven’t really been here lately because I don’t have much interest in North Dekalb Mall itself, but this place is pretty good. The main reason we liked coming here in the early years is the fact that there aren’t many lines and the tickets aren’t so expensive.
Bottom line: For a really lame mall, this place is a good place to go see a movie when you have nowhere else to go.

This mall is such a bizarre place. It reminds me of Cumberland mall 15 years ago and the defunct Gallery in Philadelphia. The spaces that actually have stores are mostly strange or off brand stores. They have a whole store for like… group fantasy card game sub culture? Or something?
But anyway the theatre was a theatre. Came here because Phipps has been almost sold out of Hunger Games tickets since it premiered and I just didn’t want to wait anymore. There were maybe 8 people in the theater we were in so that was kind of nice. Regular ticket prices. Regular, non fancy non recliner seats. Does what theaters do though so can’t complain too much.

Clean, no long lines, and cheaper tickets. Like coming here for matinée. Comfy seating — even the arm rests have cushion on them… Whaaaa?
Super quick food lines and attentive employees.

This theater is run-​down and sort of sad.
That’s why no one comes here. Therefore, I avoid lines and crowded theaters. I last came here was to watch a comedy late on a Friday night. There were maybe 10 people total in the theater.
The downside, of course, is that the floors are extra sticky, the movement from the person on the other end of my row makes its way down to me, and lawd help you if there’s an action movie showing in the next theater because you will hear and feel the bass in all of those explosions.
Some people enjoy audience commentary and the general shared experience that comes with a crowded movie theater. I prefer watching my movies in dead silence. Which explains why I rarely go to the movies. But when I do, I usually end up here.
Oh, almost forgot to mention that they have a couple of Coke Freestyle machines, so you can drink pretty much any Coke product imaginable (Cherry Vanilla Coke whaaaaa). Always a plus.
