There are two AMC theaters in the area. One is located off North Central Expressway and can show 17 movies at a time, including independent, 3-D, IMAX and mainstream films. Hearing-impaired individuals have access to closed captions and, for those who have partial hearing, listening devices. Visually impaired individuals can listen to descriptions of settings in the film. Matinee prices are $2 less than regular tickets and are valid for movies that start before 3:55 p.m. An additional discount is available for films starting before noon, students receive a discount on Thursdays, and seniors receive a discount on Tuesdays.
The other AMC facility is located on Preston Road. AMC Theatres Valley View 16 features 16 screens, 3-D movies and the same accessibility options and discounts as the other location. Children under 6 are not permitted to attend R-rated movies after 6 p.m.
Studio Movie Grill combines dinner and a movie. After you reserve tickets and seats, you will receive a dinner menu at the theater. Menu items include appetizers, hamburgers, pizza, desserts, mixed drinks, wine and beer. An usher will serve your meal during the film, and your bill will arrive 50 minutes before the end of the movie. Studio Movie Grill offers a family discount of $2, as of 2011, during KidToons, a series of cartoons shown on weekends.
The Angelika Dallas offers a cafe along with its eight screens showing independent and specialty films. The staff hosts film discussion groups and participates in film festivals. Treats bought at the cafe can be enjoyed in the lounge that is decorated with couches, or customers can take their sandwiches, chocolate, beer, wine, coffee and desserts into the theater.
This theater, with its three screens, offers an intimate setting. It was built in 1947 and has been renovated to include an auditorium, furnished with couches, love seats and ottomans. A private bar is available for customers in the auditorium, and a martini bar is located in the lounge. The Inwood Theatre shows contemporary movies and provides discounts for films starting before 5 p.m.
