Ridgecrest Cinemas

It's expensive so I'd suggest eating out and then going to the movie but the seats are so comfortable and the place is clean

I was very reluctant to try this theater for the millionth time and be disappointed. I was so wrong! We watched The Bob's Burgers movie and everything was awesome! They had both snack bars open and the staff was phenomenal. The new seats are super comfortable and everything was spotless. I'm actually excited now to go back! Great job guys!

I LOVE that the movie theater is coming up with fun events like the summer throwback series. The ticket prices are affordable and I love that the second snack bar is getting use again. The staff are incredibly friendly and lines move quickly. I love that previews are kept to a minimum (no waiting 20 minutes for the movie to start like at an AMC). Theaters 1-4 could use a face lift but they aren't terrible. I would go for the AC alone.

Ridgecrest Cinemas.. well I guess we are lucky to have what we have. We view films here when we don't feel like driving to Lancaster. There's not much I can say positive about this place other than the kids that work here are always cheerful. Though sometimes too much.. we have heard the employees hooting and hollering in the lobby during a show.

1. They try and succeed... and honestly, for the amount of clientèle, they seem to do okay. 2. Loads of staff most always available to help!There's always energetic personnel willing to jump to it and fill the jalapeño container for the obligatory hot dog. A smidge better eye on the condiments section to include more mustard is always appreciated.3. Had one issue in 4 years with turning the lights on too soon... we gotta see the Marvel end scenes people! But I think they've adjusted now.4. One time I almost got thrown out by the owner because I brought a sugar-free drink that wasn't plain old water.5. Good movie list and pretty accurate website every time I've used it.6. Nice promos and community outreach programs at times... good on ya!Now back to some good reviews and mostly whining... grow up, it's practically in DEATH VALLEY for GOD's sake, appreciate that this place is there & compliment the staff and owner for doing okay!!!

It's bad enough that we only have one movie theater in Ridgecrest; but we are also stuck paying the high prices we pay to get into this theater, and equally as bad are the high snack bar prices. So when I watch a movie, the least the theater employees can do is let me watch the ENTIRE movie in peace - and that includes the ending credits. As someone who is currently in the business of filmmaking, I want to know who is responsible for doing what in every movie I see.But most importantly, when a company such as MARVEL sneaks extra scenes into the end credits, I don't need the theater employees snapping on the lights so they can come in and do as little as possible to clean the theater and get in my viewing way. They have 30 minutes minimum between shows when the theater is empty to turn on the lights and pretend they are earning their minimum wage pay checks. On more than one occasion I've watched them come in and police the obvious empty cups left in the cup holders while bypassing piles of popcorn and wrappers scattered under the same seats. I can't remember ever seeing an employee bend at the waist in order to sweep under a seat.I have complained to management before and was assured that employees are supposed to wait until the entire theater is empty before turning on lights and "cleaning" the theater and that this would be re-affirmed to the employees so this would not happen again. But here we are, trying to watch the end credits on Wolverine and the theater is still HALF FULL of people and the lights come on! We had to shout for them to go out before they were shut off. After the first scene was shown and more people left, the lights snapped on again. We asked they they be shut off again, they were. Not even two minutes and up they go again and this time an employee wants to stand there and argue about cleaning the theater. Now, Stan Lee, the head of Marvel has an appearance in every movie - it's contractually guaranteed for him - and we've, at this point, still have seen no Stan Lee. So we are sure there should be another scene coming with him in it. But now we can't enjoy that because these characters called "theater employees" who have 30 WHOLE MINUTES between shows to clean, want to get it out of their way. Why? Is there a party in the back room they are missing? I paid for this movie from START to FINISH and I paid too much for it as far as I'm concerned. So let me watch the freaking picture! Don't shout obscenities at me and argue. I'm the customer and your half effort at cleaning the joint can wait. Especially since I was told by management, that is the way it is supposed to be.

You don't have a choice on movie theaters, this is the only one. So I think there's no point in rating this movie theater, correct? Haha.This place can't stack up to the stadium cinemas in other cities, but it's tried throughout the year to upgrade by adding two new rooms and upgrading the chairs from uncomfortable to tolerable. I don't want to dog on this place, either. It's not the best, but it's what Ridgecrest has.

This theater is a pretty typical theater- I enjoy all of the movies that I have seen in it. I am grateful that there is a theater in Ridgecrest- I don't need anything particularly fancy. I do wish that we had some more options for cheap movies once in a while- some towns have cheap matinee kid movies in the summer time. I do like the monthly promotions that they are doing now. I will be definitely watching some movies on Tuesdays in November (movies are the same price all day).

I've been here three times in this past year since I moved here. I have to say that in my opinion; this business is thee absolutely best managed business in Ridgecrest. I never have a problem with their employees who are always professional and competent which has to be attributed to their manager. In fact, thee best employee in Ridgecrest that I've interacted with in Ridgecrest was a young man who worked their ticket booth. If my memory serves me correctly he wore glasses. The theater is always clean and well maintained. This business is the gold standard in Ridgecrest and I always look forward to patronizing this business. Now that I think about it; I'm going to see if this theater is corporate owned; because this manager needs to get credit for doing such a FANTASTIC job.

You're employee named Raquel gave TERRIBLE SERVICE she was rude impatient and talked back. Apparently the snack bar was closing and we ordered a hot dog before that which she snarky commented would take 10 mins as we waited for the hot dog when the hot dog was ready she then refused to give us the hotdog because the rotator was getting off. she then decided to microwave the luke warm hot dog. if i wanted a microwaved hot dog i would go home to do so i don't expect this kind of service at a movie theater i paid to get in and paid to have a rotated hot dog she then talked back as we politely said we don't want the hot dog with a rude tone worst service ever!!!
