iPic is swanky. It's like a Vegas nightclub inside. You feel like a VIP, and you're within striking distance of the Kierland Cougars. Young, single men...This is where you should be to find a Sugar Mama. When I first saw a movie here, I thought it was the best possible movie going experience. Tickets were between $19-21, but it was such an awesome place that I thought it was worth it. Here's the thing. The nice seats that recline and come with personal service are now $27 a piece. For $27, I can go to a Diamonbacks game, a Suns game, a concert, a show at ASU Gammage...There's a lot I can do for $27. Two people going to a movie, getting a drink and a bite to eat at iPic will run $100, easy. You can become a member which lowers the price of their expensive seats to $20, but that's only valid certain nights of the week. On the weekends? Even members are paying $27 a pop. For me? It's not worth it. There's another place in the area that has larger theatres with better seats, more separation from people around you, more room to stretch your legs (I'm 6'3" and my feet hit the half wall in front of the chair when I'm fully reclined at iPic), personal service, a full bar and good food...Tickets are $12-15, and that's become my go to theatre in the Phoenix area. iPic has cheaper seats, but they don't move or recline, and you don't get the chance to have food/drinks brought to you. For the real experience, you've got to shell out the cash. The service is alright. I ordered a soda that wasn't refilled at all and we placed an order for a dessert that never came (luckily we weren't charged for it). If people are seeing a movie at iPic, I'll tag along. It's still a really nice theatre, and there are some cool perks like free popcorn and a blanket (apparently they're washed regularly), but it's no longer at the top of my list for best places to see a movie. 4 star experience, 0 star price point.
