Reading Cinemas Valley Plaza with IMAX

They only block the seats from side to side of your group, not in front or behind you. Not very effective social distancing.

I really like this theater. The concession can be long so allow some extra time if you want to grab snacks. The theater is clean and chairs are non reclining but still comfy.

Haven't been there in a long time but its changed for the better, as in better snack selection. Staff was great. Place wasn't as clean when we walked in to view the movie

Reading Cinemas is a good theater, probably the busiest theater in Bakersfield. The price of a GA ticket is fairly priced, but if you can try to make a matinee showing to save some money. Snacks are expensive, I feel like I am dumping my wallet for a small popcorn, so if your hungry try to eat before. Now for the rooms, they were comfy and and had some space, but if you go see a busy movie expect to move your legs if someone has to pass as their is not a lot of in aisle walking space. One of things I really don't like is having to pick a seat before even going into a theater, maybe some might like this but it's not for me. Staff is always courteous and friendly.

The IMAX theater is really nice. It has great picture quality and sound. Not sure about any of the other theaters as we only visit for the IMAX.
