I loved this experience. It was a huge theater with comfortable seats. Lots of stairs though. I dont recommend wearing heels to this event. The details on the ceiling were so nice. I like how they organized the seating. We went to see Dane Cook. Big screen. Free popcorn and drinks. Loved the womens restroom, it had big mirros and plenty of toilets.

We went there to see Black Adam on Friday evening. The theater was big with a large screen which was awesome. The chair I was sitting on had some issues, but there wasnt really an issue since the theater was almost empty, so I could just have switched a chair.The popcorn had somewhat a week taste, but overall was pretty ok.

It’s nice to see if you’re in the area, the theater looks iconic, and the handprints/footprints outside are a nice throwback. However, there are lots of people who try to give their CDs and force you for pictures. As summary, there isn’t much to see.

Iconic landmark! Worth driving by if youre in the area. Unfortunately there was a good bit of construction going on when I went by, so my view was a bit obstructed. Overall, it looks just like youd expect it to. Go check it out!

It’s worth seeing if you’re in the area; the theater is iconic, and the handprints/footprints outside are a nice throwback to classic Hollywood. However, it’s still a functioning theater so you can’t just go in and wander around, and there ultimately isn’t much to see if you made a special trip.

A wonderful and classic old theater with tons of Hollywood history within and outside of its walls. From the world famous hand and footprints in the courtyard to a few costumes displayed inside the lobby, this is a must see if youre in the neighborhood.

The tcl Chinese reward program is on the website and when I went into the theater and asked for a rewards card the guy at the door told me to ask the other guy and the other guy says that they dont have that program anymore and hes going to ask the manager and he took less then a minute and came out and said that the manager said that they dont have that program and that theyll email me if they do when I havent even provided them the email. If the program is not working then the advertisement for the rewards should be removed from the website since it isnt that means the program is working. The customer service is awful there.They do not care about the customers time because I took all that way to go to get the rewards cards and it was all a lie and no one even apologized .

I didnt go in, but visited because its in a game... didnt know there were hand/foot impressions of many actors out front. It was pretty cool to see... can put your hand/feet in same spot to compare sizes or "touch" where an actor/actress did.

Newly renovated, area around still uglyevery body wants to visit Hollywood, but it really the question if it is worth to see. If you want to keep the beautiful images in your mind, better do not go there, hopefully it will change someday. We have been the second time after 10 years and honestly it is even getting worse. But the newly renovated Mall Chinese Theatre is really worth to see

All my life Ive looked to the Chinese Theatres as a magical movie landmark.If youre in the movie business, this was the place to be.Finally being able to stand in the same courtyard as so many legends was quite overwhelming.Not only that, but having a film I made premiere at a film festival in this exact spot is so surreal.Its one of the happiest Ive ever been and emotional wrapped into one.Its everything I thought it was

A must see when in Hollywood, this iconic theatre and landmark is in tons of movies and always on TV. its a very busy place and we were there too early for the tour, but would like to come back for the tour. Very busy place indeed but everyone is fairly courteous so everyone gets a turn taking photos. This is also a great start if you are doing the Hollywood walk of fame.

It’s a historic treasure! The ornate design and decor. From 1920’s. They have original and custom artifacts as well. They have the original theater with IMax and additional theaters in upper levels. The tour was awesome. We loved Lear big about the history and unique facts. The book they sell is worth it for $3. Loved seeing all the celebrity concrete prints and insignia out front. Highly recommend!

Wish I could of seen the minions movie with that insane viewing experience, but I settled for bullet train instead.Chairs are 7.5 on the comfy scale. Good leg room and they lean back, but the elevation between seats kind of has the person in front of you blocking your view a tad.

Loved it. Yes, the obvious already shines like its history, the finger and foot prints of all the stars, but the core qualities of this cinema are stellar. Watched NOPE here in IMAX and the image and sound quality in the front section was breathtaking. This is what cinema should feel like. If you are in Hollywood and there is a big blockbuster playing here, treat yourself with the TCL Chinese Theatre. You cannot miss. Highly recommended.

The USA dont have much presentable history compared to other places in the world. But Hollywood is definitely an important part of newer non-political history - and the Chinese theater breathes film history. So worth doing the guided theater tour

We came in thinking this would be an amazing experience going into this iconic theatre BUT WE WERE WRONG. The people working there were high, the popcorn was stale, the water was $7, and to top It all off the seats were stained in bodily fluids & the auditorium smelled like urine & weed. I have never felt more uncomfortable walking to the theatre in my life, & they chose not to turn the lights on coming into the theatre so it was an extremely dangerous situation. Please do not come here or bring your children here.

I went for a tour through the theater. It was interesting to hear the story of how the theater was decorated/created. Hearing the stories of how the footprints started is also interesting, you still see those tiny footprints that were just a mistake, but now common.

Well this was one of my bucket list items I can finally scratch off, and watched a movie as well. The Dolby sound is out of this world, go try it out at least once. Didn’t take too many pictures, so many in the way. This placed is packed but that’s a good thing for their business.

Take it or leave it. The Nostalgia brings you in, but the finite details of parking, and high prices for tickets and food balance it out.If you can figure out the parking situation, which is an absolute aberration parking in the Hollywood and Highland structure oh, then youre golden.This theater is old, classic Hollywood. I was glad to see that the lobby had some costumes on display from various movies over the year.Its definitely a date spot, maybe a place youd bring someone from out of town who has never been to Hollywood before to watch a movie.Sad to say, but this is definitely not a place you want to bring your significant other and three kids to get a bargain or anything. Prices are very high!The whole parking situation is ridiculous. You have to park at Hollywood and Highland, then navigate through a maze of escalators, walkways, and tons of tourists to try to make your way in front of the theater.If you can take some kind of public transportation, good luck there as well. The homeless are definitely present, at all hours of the day, so just be on your best guard!Not entirely impossible, but just make sure your situationally aware of whats going on around you at all times.If you can take an Uber or Lyft, or other form of self-powered scooter such as a bird or lime, then more power to you. Literally.

Pros:The inside is big, almost 1k seats, has IMAX and streams movies.Hosted a number of big premiers and award shows.Has a few replicas of costumes inside at the entrance.Cons:Not very cleanThe 30mins VIP Tour, costing 10$ was not much... I rather recommend going to see a movie and would get the same experience.

The theater is fantastic but the tour sucked. The costumes on display were mostly replicas. They were a bit worn. I would recommend purchasing tickets to see a movie there so that you can explore the interior and get some value. I would not advise to go on the tour.

Great experience to watch a movie at such an iconic landmark. The sound there us great. If you park in the garage, theater will validate your parking. We went on a weekday, so not very crowded.

Although, personally, Im NOT a celebrity hound, I do greatly appreciate, a few extremely talented theater artists.Mostly, those who have performed in memorable roles, which have transcended time and generations, because of their timeless artistic qualities.With inheritent talents of pure ageless "Gold" or priceless diamond exuberance.(For example, the $36 million dollar, blue diamond of the Immortal Shirley Temple.)Reminiscent, of extraordinary human abilities, within a few incredible sport stars/athletes;i.e Ruth, Jackie Robinson, Willie Mays, Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard,Pele the soccer phenom, Nadia Comaneci, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Garry Kasparov tactical genius, Magus Carlsen (Capablanca type Endgame masteryand Michael Jordan. etc...Therefore, this iconic theater, of legendary architecture, representing traditional excellence of the human evolution of spiritIs an exceptional, "modern" landmark, of the Hollywood endeavor of entertainment.A Truly, neccessary visit, for most all, film aficionados.😎🤙🤙🤙

RUN, dont walk to go see Top Gun: Maverick at the TCL Chinese IMAX Theatre. What a historic venue to see an absolute adrenaline pumping heart-thumping movie. The seats were decent and at least reclined a bit. Legroom was a little tight if the person in front decided to lean back, but overall, great experience here and convenient location from West Hollywood. Food and snacks menu is also limited but sometimes all you need are the basics.

This was fun. I didnt go into the theater but I was surprised by how fun the hand and foot prints were. They take great care in preserving each block. You could easily spend an hour here to see each one. There is a tour, I skipped it. Ive been inside enough theaters. If you are a film buff or a gossip magazine junkie you will love this spot.

TCL Chinese Theatre is pure old Hollywood. The hand and foot prints left throughout the years are amazing. Some of the hands and feet impressions are so tiny. And inside is well preserved so you truly get a feel of what the times were like. You can take a tour for a small fee. The Batman was playing when I toured.

I highly recommend the tour of the theater. Its inexpensive ($10and fun to learn about the history of the building and all the famous people who have been inside its beautifully architected structure. Part of the tour includes sitting in the theater and watching a short video. You get to imagine who may have sat in the seat before you over the years.

Great theatre. Imax is fabulous, sound is deep and clear. Wonderful experience. If i would suggest something, just pick a seat from middle lane to the top. Closer to the screen, imax is distorting and fatiguing your sight that’s my feeling

This place is historic, and that alone makes it a must stop if you are visiting LA. The outside look is so great but inside, the decor is amazing. The screen is the fifth largest in the world and seats just under 1,000 people. We went and saw Spider-Man and it was one of the best theater experience I have had in a long time.Be sure to get to the theater a half hour or so early, and do the tour. It was $10 and well worth the money. They take you into the theater, explain many of the different aspects of the theater, some of the props and then take you outside to see many of the hand prints in the concrete.

If you visit Hollywood, don’t miss the Chinese Theater. It has been considered the most famous movie theater in the world. If you want to avoid the crowds, go early. I went at 9:30 in the morning and it was very enjoyable. There were few people walking around. I loved it.

Probably the most iconic movie theater/cinema in the world it doesnt disappoint.. from the moment you walk up to it over the hands and footprint paving stones of celebrities from every era from the Golden days to present to entering the lobby with infamous costumes warn in well known movies.. to the grand womens bathroom with area for checking ones outfit very much fit for those attending a movie premiere and needing to make sure theyre attire is perfect.. this venue has it all.. the seating in the theater itself is pretty regular but the feel of the place has a grandeur to it like no other. Ive been here a few times including for movie premieres and I have to say I always look forward to coming back. Also to note they have parking validation here if you park in the underground car park at the Dolby theater next door. Recommend!!!

The TCL Chinese Theater is a most popular showplace and has been considered the most famous movie theater in the world!I’ll say as a guide, the building has been the most requested stop to see with my folks, among other “must see” things, in the time we have together.It is of course a premium movie theater inside, as the ultimate overall experience to be immersed in.It’s also the mecca of the cinema industry, having been the location most associated with movie premiers and special promotions of Hollywood productions.To drive the point home, is to relate my chance encounter years ago with famed film critic Roger Ebert, whom I had asked if he considered the Chinese Theater to be the most famous movie theater in the world, to which he quickly replied, “well yes, I can’t think of any theater more famous”.The forecourt outside at the Hollywood Boulevard Walk of Fame, has become the main attraction for passing visitors with limited time.Here before the famous motifs of the renowned facade, is perhaps the best collection of movie star impressions in concrete anywhere on the planet!The forecourt has been closed off during the pandemic restrictions on social distancing, tho the public can still see the impressions from behind the barricades, if not for taking the tour to get a better close up look!Parking is most convenient underneath the Hollywood & Highland Complex, off Orange Drive, with rear access to the theaters in the complex.
