Century Theatre

This theater participates with available apps to buy your tickets and select seating before the show time, a very convenient option. Overall the theater is great because it's located in central Boulder and has multiple theaters available. It's not one of the newest theaters around but for Boulder and the limited movie watching venues available the Century Theater is a good choice There is a decent concession area and the food and drinks are average theater fare. Ample parking located in surrounding parking lots and covered garage spaces.

My wife and I routinely go on Tuesdays for the discounted tickets - it feels nice getting to see new releases on the cheap! Not sure why so many folks reviewing on here are getting all worked up about the fact that you pick your seat at the time of your ticket purchase - it does not strike me as that different from choosing once you're inside... To each their own I suppose. If having to choose a seat ahead of time is a deal breaker for you then you will not be a fan of this theater; if you are like 95% of the population and could care less about whether you choose a seat ahead of time or in person then you'll find it similar to most other major chain theaters with the wonderful exception of the cheap tickets on Tuesdays!

The employee attitude is pretty great (typical canned enthusiasm), but they said that I couldn't bring in my school backpack AFTER I purchased my ticket. While my female cohorts entered unfazed with bags and backpacks I had to frantically find a place to put my stuff, the staff wouldn't even hold my backpack for me. I then gave it to my girlfriend who AGAIN entered unmolested with a bag. I guess being a big dude with a bad is verboten in their policy, after all our large stature ensures that we can smuggle more contraband than a lady in the same bag (it has something to do with our height folding dimensions). The movie was fun though.

This theater is comfortable and clean. My favorite detail is that you can reserve seats when you purchase your tickets in advance online, so there's no risk of showing up with friends and having to sit separately in a crowded theater. There are several parking garages next door, so it's always easy to find a nearby parking spot. And there are 15+ restaurants within short walking distance. I don't even leave in Boulder, but this is where I prefer to see a movie in the north metro area.

I arrived to this theater with a backpack, measuring 14×6×6", which was barely outside of their 12×6×6" policy. I was obviously unaware of this policy. I offered to let them search my bag, but was turned down. Instead, I was told I had to hide my backpack outside. My backpack which contained my $1500 laptop. I got my ticket refunded, but was not apologized to, but treated like I did something wrong. If you are going to implement a bag policy, provide a place to put large bags that do not fit this policy. Now, I wasted an afternoon, and was not even apologized to for wasting my time.
