Rapid Dose:
If you frequent the Starplex Cinema in Mesquite, and are tired of the smell of stale urine and your feet sticking to the floor – drive the extra 10 minutes down 80, and shell out the extra few bucks to have a much more pleasurable movie viewing experience.
Review (More FYI though):
Okay… so you want to see a movie, but you are not sure exactly what to do. OH! THE PRESSURE!
* Do you spend the mega bucks and go to AMC 30 in Mesquite?
* Do you save some money, see an older movie, and endure the nasty, broken seats and horrid ambiance of Starplex Cinema in Mesquite?
OR…..
* Do you drive 10 minutes down 80 to the Starplex Cinema in Forney where everything is nice and clean (including the employees), and you STILL get to see a new release movie for a fraction of the price?
Here is a breakdown of prices…
AMC 30: All shows before noon: $5.00 everybody
All shows after noon: $8.50 adults $6.50 seniors $5.50 children
Starplex in Mesquite: All shows before 6pm: $1.25
All shows after 6pm: $1.75
TUESDAY’S: .50 cents! All day!
Starplex in Forney: All shows before 6pm: $5.00 for everybody
All shows after 6pm: $7.00 for adults. Seniors and kids are still only $5.00.
So, what is your poison? Do you prefer comfort to filth? Deal over wallet buster? Or perhaps you like to flash that cash like you are rich (and don’t have to fill that SUV up with gas) and stick with the AMC 30. You have all the facts now. Be warned… all places have OUTRAGEOUS prices for concessions – but I bet you already knew that.
I personally recommend that you give the Starplex in Forney a try. It is not that far away, and it can save you some money. Of the 14 theaters it has, all the movies were the exact ones playing at AMC 30; so they do always show the new release movies. However, I will hands down choose to sit in dried up pee on Tuesdays just to enjoy a .50 cent movie. You just cannot beat that with a stick!
I give Starplex Cinemas in Forney 8 out of 10 points. The place is clean and nice just like the people who work there, and the prices are right for new releases.
