Edwards La Verne 12

The outside is VERY deceiving. I’ve been coming here since I was a kid and the inside of the theater has been so well kept and is always looking brand new, now including recliner seats for NO additional charge… unlike some theaters I’ve been to where they charge almost $ 20-​$ 25 to sit in a recliner.
I’m just curious as for why they haven’t at least put a new coat of paint on the outside? It’s looked the exact same for 20+ years. When I was younger the parking lot used to be so packed you couldn’t find a place to park. Now, it’s always empty. I feel like if they updated the look of the outside, it’ll bring it back to life again and get more people coming in!

DONT JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER
Always drove by this Edwards Theater thinking it was a dinky and old school– I was SO wrong!
— pick your seats in advance!
— lazy boy leather seats that recline and have your legs kicked up!
— beer and wine? Hell yea!!!
— ticket price isn’t hiked up but is basically the same as the other theaters with the crappy regular chair.
This is definitely my go-​to theater from now on :)

Really enjoyed the theater. I had never been there before the seating remodel.
I don’t understand all the complaints about having to pick seats. I’m real picky about where I sit in a theater and like to be able to pick where we sit. I have not had to sit next anyone horrible, like others complain about.
Have these people ever been to a play or concert? You have to chose seats for those.
Would be nice if bathrooms were not upstairs, but that seems a design flaw from whenever the building was originally built.

Wonderful time Love Love this theatre! Reclining seats?. Such a good experience last nite. Wowzer

Landing back home in the USA after a 15 hour flight between China and Los Angeles. .what could be better than celebrating than watching «Star Wars VII» on Opening Day??? The advertising in Thailand was overwhelming so how could we forget about Star Wars?
We heard that tickets were sold out foe opening day, but some friends in LA had taken off from work to watch this movie and we were lucky enough to be invited! Mahalo nui loa!
I’m not from California, so naming the town of Laverne is not significant to me, but what really stood out was the RECLINING SEAT!!! We don’t have those in Hawaii! I did experience reclining seat in Las Vegas when I heard that they existed. I believe the price of the movie ticket is higher, but it’s worth it. The seat is adjustable and this is MUCH appreciated after being in an airplane seat for a very long time.
Another important topic of discussion for a theater is the restroom. I don’t understand why it’s upstairs. I didn’t see an elevator or escalator. If I were a Senior Citizen or a parent with children and lots of things to carry, this inconvenience would be a big problem. Luckily, I made it to the restroom without an accident.
My friends enjoyed the snack bar, so no complaints in that department. So, the lack of one star pertains to the logistics of the location of the restroom. Otherwise, this is a great movie venue with free parking right in the front! Enjoy! !!

Love the new recliners and beer!
Love the reserve seating so you don’t have to wait in line for new movies!!! Friendly staff

I wish I could give this no stars!
I came to visit my mom and take her to a movie and then we couldn’t even sit together, unless you count the very front row where I am now literally laying down on my back to watch this $ 12 movie and eat my $ 34 in snacks.
I get it, everyone thinks fake leather that reclines is so cool. However, assigned seats are not only pointless, they cannot be profitable. Unless you’re a person who comes to the movies alone, finding two seats together is challenge. People don’t want to buy seats next to one another so constantly there is one seat in between two purchased ones causing a major issue when you don’t purchase tickets online in advanced.
I went back to the manager and asked if I could please buy any two seats together that aren’t in the front row. I was told no.
I miss coming the movies and sitting anywhere that was open. Now it’s terrible. I arrived thirty minutes before the movie and still couldn’t get seats together.
Guess it’s time to go back to Netflix. At least I will save money, and a headache.
Won’t be coming here ever again. Thank God I live in San Francisco where we don’t do this stupid seating because we desperately need to feel relevant and cool.
