This weekend I was asked to come be among the first people to watch The Jungle Book at AMC Prime at Dolby Cinema, and I have to tell you, I’m a little worried I may have been spoiled by the amazing new luxury theater.
First off, when you are walking in, you are greeted by a preview of the movie on a beautiful screen in the entry way to the theater. I mean, it was so nice I wouldn’t have minded popping a seat right there and watching the movie. The boys loved it. They could get right up close and thought it was “the coolest” according to my six year old.
The next thing you’ll notice is that you aren’t stumbling to your seats! The hallways are wide and very well lit to see where you are going, and once you are seated there is still enough room for people can get up and run for more snacks or to use the bathrooms without making everyone move.
Now that you are in your seat, you’re probably already completely sold on this new theater experience. The recliner-style seats have buttons to adjust the back and feet to your liking. The seats are in pairs with an arm rest that moves up to make them love sofa style seats if you so choose. I loved this feature! I can imagine how nice it will be to snuggle in with my husband the next time we visit, but it was perfect for my son too! There were a few spots in the movie that were a little intense, and he curled right into me as if we were on the sofa watching it together. It made it a really nice way to watch the movie. Recliner seats aren’t just great for adults. They are perfect for younger kids in longer movies. My son was able to switch positions the 12,000 times he does in two hours without bothering anyone! He had enough spaces to move and stay comfortable, which was great!
So far, I’ve talked about how cool the theater looked, how easy it is to navigate, and how amazing the seats are, but let’s talk about the picture on the screen! I honestly felt like I was watching the movie on a brand new state of the art HD screen! It was so crisp, bright, and the resolution was stunning. Walt Disney Pictures worked hard on the details of the animals in the movie, and this was the way to watch it!
The Jungle Book was the perfect movie to watch in this new theater. The sound and picture almost made you feel like you were actually in the jungle with Mowgli and all the animals. This version had a lot more action in it as well as a few intense scenes that made us jump in our recliners! There wasn’t as much music as the original version, but the few classics were still included. There was really something for kids and adults alike to enjoy in this film, and I personally really loved this version.
The Jungle Book is in theaters now! Don’t miss your chance to see it today in Dolby Cinema at AMC Prime!

This seems like an amazing way to experience The Jungle Book on the big screen. My family and I loved this movie, and can’t wait to see it again.
I can’t wait to see this movie. It looks like it is going to be so good.
We saw this movie the other day and loved it!! The animation and effects are amazing!
I’d love to see The Jungle Book like this. Anything that enhances the experience is always a plus when you’re trying to immerse yourself in another world.
The more hype I see over this movie the more I’m dying to see it! And I’m not even a big children movie watcher, but this looks way too good!
How fun! My 4 year-old freaks out every time he sees the trailer… we can’t wait to see it, looks really good!
My dad and my niece just saw this movie.
They liked it very much!
I can’t wait to see this movie! We’re going as a family this week!
That really does look like a nice theater. I will have to go see this movie soon. I have only heard good things.
Now that looks like the type of cinema I need to visit. Those seats look so comfy compared to normal cinema-style seating.
Wow! That is an awesome theater. I can’t wait to see this one. It looks fantastic.
We wanted to see it this past weekend but didn’t get to it. Yet. I hope we get there this weekend.
We are so excited to go see this movie. The effects look great in the trailer. I can not wait to see it in 3D.
This is still on our must-see list.
Our son was mesmerized at the previews!
Those recliner seats are crazy cool. Now that is the way to watch a movie. You are not kidding!
My husband went and saw this on opening night and we LOVED it! Such a great movie that kept you on the edge of your seat.
Wow, what a great way to watch a movie, especially the new Jungle Book! We loved watching this movie, I can’t imagine how much better it would be at AMC prime
A luxury theater…wow. This sounds so amazing. I would love to check out this new type of theater. Sounds like a much nicer experience.
I am really looking forward to seeing this and hope it lives up to expectations – watching it in a luxury theatre sounds perfect! x
