  Definently the largest and best IMAX theater in Seattle with laser projectors and a truly amazing sound system. The concessions aren't the best, but the popcorn is fine. I wouldn't say that this is the best theater in Seattle (that in my opinion goes to the Cinerama) but it's definently the second best. The tickets are cheaper than other IMAX theaters in the area, and those have smaller screens. So if you want to see a movie in IMAX, and it's convenient for you to go here, then I see no reason why you should go to any other IMAX theater in the Seattle area.

  A nice clear theatre, decent sound and nice banked seating. Two adverse comments. It's a really long walk down the slope - not so friendly when you have mobility problems. Secondly the rows of seats are really long with no breaks - if you need the toilet during the show, you've quite a trek and could disturb lots of people.

  Staff was incredibly rude. We arrived at 12:30 to buy tickets for a 1pm showing. Asked for two tickets for the movie and the woman responded, "uhh for the 7pm show?" We responded that we thought there was a 1pm show. She said she can give us tickets for the 7pm show if we really wanted, the conversation continues like this a little longer before she finally tells us the 1pm show was sold out and we really should have known that. Nothing on the website said so. She proceeded to try to hide a laugh as we walked away. I can't believe someone was so rude over something so trivial.

  Watched Dunkirk. 3 things that were wrong: -The image color was VERY off. Everything on screen had a slight purple highlight on the upper part of an element. Best observed when the screen is black while there is white lettering, there is a purple outline at the top of the letters that is very obvious. I noticed this in the first 2 seconds of the first trailer and instantly felt disappointed. - The 4K laser projectors did not even come close to a 70mm format and everything on screen was slightly blurry like watching a 720p TV. For the full IMAX +80ft screen, only a 70mm format is capable of providing a crystal clear image. For regular size theater screens, 4K is amazing but does not have the pixel count for the massive full IMAX experience. 8K projectors will be able to change that in the future. (Guardians of the galaxy Vol. 2 was shot in 8K)(also 70mm>8K) -The seats were extremely crammed together. I am 160lb and I was very comfortable but large people would have a nightmare here. Similar feeling to being on an aircraft. Also when the seats are down it is impossible to get up and leave because there would be absolutely zero room to walk down the isle. When the movie starts, you better not have to go use the bathroom. Seriously there is noway! 2 things that were good: -The sound was absolutely amazing! I have never been this blown away by a sound system before. They knocked this one out of the park! -Even though, as previously stated, the actual picture format was severely lacking, but the size of the screen was unbelievably immersive! Absolutely nothing to improve upon regarding screen design. I am rating one star entirely because of the color problem. With a theater that expensive, it is ridiculous to have a problem so huge and that is so easy to fix.
