Landmark's Glendale 12

When I read my review from six years ago, I thought I was being too harsh and needed to give this theatre another chance.Unfortunately, I think it has gotten more yucky since my last visit. Half the bathrooms were out of order or disgusting. There were stains all over theater seven (nacho cheese? Puke? Idk) and they don't pop the popcorn fresh--just like other reviewers were warning!Please just go to another movie theater. I think it's time to put this one out to pasture.

It has been several years since I've reviewed this location of Landmark Theatres, a modestly sized chain that began with a focus on indie/arthouse but has transitioned into a mostly wide-release chain still somewhat devoted to more limited release options. Since my last review, the chain came under a new owner - Cohen Media Group, an indie distributor that has a few Academy Award nominations. Historically, Landmark has been known for a more specialty experience similar to what you'll get at its other Indy location at Fashion Mall. Here, however, you get a more traditional experience in an older theatre that began life as a Kerasotes. I've long heard rumors of this location getting a renovation. In fact, when I arrived for last night's screening as part of Heartland International Film Festival I was really hoping I'd experience a newly renovated space. However, I have to think that this theater's fairly modest business has likely made such a renovation not a great investment. That's a shame - this space is really growing and I do think investing here could turn this into a destination theater. It's not bad here. It's functional. It's old school. The sound system sounds older (it was very noticeable last night). They have 12 screens, DLP projection, stadium seating, and are generally known for their concession stand. If you remember when Glendale was an actual mall, there's a hallway off to the side where this theater was attached to the side of the mall. While there's still a Staples over there (the library moved) and some offices, generally that hallway is now locked. Accessibility? Pretty good. Parking is plentiful. While there's not an automatic door, staff are nearly always watching and will rush over to help if needed. Theaters all have accessible seating in stadium-style (they are all at the midway point with companion seating next to them). Additional features include audio description, subtitles, and other options. For additional features, check their website. Because I consider this to be a notch below the most contemporary theaters in terms of tech, I doubt I'd see a high-tech film here. However, most other films would be fine here. This is a location that seems to do brisk business with films for kids, families, and diverse audiences. Generally, I find the employees always friendly here. I saw a manager I've known for years here last night who's now doing half-time between both Indy locations. That's a good sign as she's a great manager and always has a great crew. Landmark does have a loyalty club - both free and paid ($20 a year). The paid membership is worth it if you go to movies a lot as there's some serious discount options. I can't really change my overall rating - I still consider this to be a mid-range theater option for Indy. It's likely to appeal to those in the neighborhood - so Glendale, SoBro, Broad Ripple, and anyone who doesn't want to venture up to Castleton. I like it here as Kite has been turning this entire Glendale Town Center into a more comfortable, relaxed area with an improved Target, several restaurant options, healthcare, and even Ayr Apartments. For Marvel or high-tech films I'd go to Castleton, however, for pretty much anything else this Landmark Glendale is worth your time and will hopefully one of these days get the renovation it deserves.

I came to the movie theater to see "IF" as part of my Indy Flims buff Meetup group. It was a Monday evening and the theater was dead, so it was very nice to have the whole theater to ourselves. The staff were very professional and helpful when pointing us to the theater where our movie was showing. The AMC theater had a very nice ambiance which it always does, and the selection of refreshments was very nice. This must be a new movie theater because I had never heard of it before I came to see the movie. It is conveniently located next to Target in the Landmark Glendale Shopping center off of Keystone Ave. I was especially impressed with how clean the theater was and the bathrooms were clean and looked professional as well. In the past, I have been in movie theaters that were nasty and very dirty, so it was very refreshing to see a clean movie theater. All in all, this is a wonderful movie theater and the staff are friendly and professional, so I would highly recommend coming here for the movies. You will definitely get your money's worth!

Dirty!!!! Gross, dirty!!! I did not even want to sit in the seats and we thought about just asking for a refund and leaving but we stayed and stuck to the floor. The employees were super nice and friendly.

This theater is really outdated compared to what the industry looks like today. They aren't popping the popcorn fresh and serving it to you. Instead it's popped then packed and served. The slushes also aren't ICEE brand so the flavor options and taste are off. There's no option to select your own seat as well. However, the seats they have are nice and comfortable. And there were no problems with the sound, picture, or comfort in the theaters. The staff were friendly as well. However, you can go somewhere else for a fuller experience. The ticket and snack prices don't reflect the quality of experience.

I enjoy coming to this theater. It's not far from my house,the staff is always nice. I went to go see the little mermaid, and there was an Aaliyah because it was in the afternoon, which was good in the lobby, seem like it was clean and then when we got into the theater, it was clean. We didn't get anything from the concession because we had just ate prior but it seems like they had a good selection of snacks. I've been to this theater quite a bit and I have no complaints except for their bathrooms can use a little TLC.

My teen daughters and I visited yesterday for a matinee showing of Spiderman: No Way Home. We had the entire theater to ourselves! It was nice. I felt like we were the only patrons but they were staffed appropriately and the facility was clean. I didn't give a 5 star review simply because the theater is a bit older and we didn't sample the concession stand offerings, but everyone was nice and professional and we enjoyed ourselves!

This theater is no our usual go to but after shopping at target we decided to catch an early movie. They offer a special before 6pm all tickets are 8 dollars. This theater is a no frills theater that's for sure. I remember coming here as a kid and I don't believe it's ever been updated. It needs a refresh terribly. Concessions is serving the basics due to Covid a lot of items aren't available. One thing that was frustrating is they aren't offering refills. Not on large drinks which is so bizarre to me. I know for longer movies it's easy to fly through a large drink and I don't think spending another six dollars is fair. The seats were terrible. We didn't see one seat that wasn't visibly stained. I tried to not think about it because you just never know but we were grossed out for sure. The seats are so worn down and uncomfortable. Hence the need for them to desperately update. I would just avoid this one and go to a nicer theater in the area.

I can only give it 3 stars because of the smiles and kindness of the staff.The floors, and bathroom and theater seats were disgusting and gross. I believe that as much as it cost to visit this theater the least they could do is keep it decent

I'm shocked how dirty the theatre floors and chairs are. Disturbingly so. Customer service was okay I guess, but let's just take it down and start over!
