If you're looking for a cheap night out, don't come to this theatre. Like everyone else said, parking is paid, which is now $3. I drove around trying to find the street parking I was told about, but never found any. Most of the street parking spaces are now Truck Parking or No Parking zones. If you park there, you will get a ticket that will run you about $65. I know, since this what street parking violations run now.
Thus, you are forced into paid parking. When you go in, you will have a loud, rude attendant yell at you and send you in the parking garage maze. Good luck finding the right elevator and have fun wandering around, because there are two different elevators at completely opposite ends of the garage.
Once you finally, find the right elevator, be prepared to be disoriented further when you exit. You will walk through another mini maze of doors and another set of elevators to get to the main lobby to purchase a ticket that will run you anywhere from just under $8 to just under $10. Thankfully, I went there last night on a free sneak preview of "Whip It!" Otherwise, I wouldn't have gone.
The inside staff members I spoke to were actually helpful and surprisingly, not rude. Even so, it didn't sway me to purchase any of the overpriced foods from the concession stand. The prices are outrageous and I would suggest that you bring your own, to be perfectly honest.
The restrooms were sort of a mess, but that can only be blamed on the hordes of women destroying them. The rest of the theatre that I saw was relatively clean, with the exception of promotional handouts being tossed in random places.
All in all, the movie itself was excellent and there were no problems with it running smoothly. Just be prepared to pay!
Pros: Nice atmosphere and roomy theatres
Cons: Pricing! Rude parking attendants.

I just went to watch a movie last week with a couple of my girlfriends and asked for a student ticket. The lady giving tickets said that they do not give student discounts on fridays or on the weekends.
I thought that that was just stupid. They are trying to get as much money as possible. Soon enough STUDENTS are going to stop going because its SO expensive. I dont even feel like going back there any more. Everything is SO overpriced.
Pros: Clean
Cons: Ticket price

It is unconscionable to charge people to park at a movie theater, especially when tickets are already at the top of the market rate, if not higher.
Pros: nothing
Cons: everything

Beware that you might have to pay $3.00 for parking and the movie you want to watch is sold out. No way to know this before you pay for parking, hunting for a space then walk a long way to the ticket booth. Also they hire a handicap girl who is very unhappy with her job at the entrance to check tickets. The poor girl is not up for the job and acts as if the patrons are there to bother her. Not so great image and impression for the theater.
I will never go there again!!!

I will never go to this theater again. They not only charge you $9 for a ticket, but also charge you for parking. JUST to see a movie with a friend, it will cost you $25. Edwards is making a killing while River Oaks Theater is going out of business.
Pros: CEO makes a lot of money
Cons: Parking, Price, Atmosphere, Big corporate theater running small theater out of business

Parents should make sure that their "little angels" are really seeing a movie and not roaming the neighbohood across the street like a bunch of little thugs and hanging out on the curbs in front of peoples homes...
Also if you park on the streets across from Edwards, YOU WILL BE TOWED, and the management does not care....
Cons: Parking,little thugs,traffic,overpriced,did I mention the little thugs?

CONCERNED AVID THEATER GOER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
From:New York City(Manhattan)/moved to Houston, Texas
Date:12/.22/2006
re:BREAKING THE BANK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
To:Concerned avid theatre goer(s)...especially those of you who have family(ies)
and want to relax and take in a worth while movie of your choosing...BE
WARNED...the entire movie industry is a RIP-OFF and even with the Regal
discount card used at Edwards Grand Palace Stadium 24 the ticket prices
are Overly Exorbitant!!!...the Regal Discount Card does no one any favors!!!
BRING BANK OF WHOMEVER WITH YOU!!!...because a day/evening out
the family will make your credit card do belly flops...OH!!! and by the way children
sometimes run AMUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...sliding down escalator bannisters, stair
railings...so on....and so on!!!...And the industry wonders why private home
videos/dvds sales have gone up in this country...spending over $175.00 and
and above; especially in New York(Manhattan) where the cost of a single show
is $15-$20....sounds riduculous...and a small bag of popcorn is $6... without
a drink...bring a family of 3-5 and do the math.
Pros: Seating basically comfortable
Cons: Projectionists(some movies haven't a clue)

Avoid this teenage mecca if you are on a date and over 17. If you do go here, valet park! It's $2, parking in the garage is $3, and getting a VIP spot is $7. I parked VIP, because the parking garage was such a zoo. When I got inside, the movie I wanted to see was sold out - on all four theaters! Since I had just paid $7 to park, I felt obligated to select another movie. It was increadibly difficult to think of what else to see over the 50 million teenagers shouting at each other in the lobby (where are their parents?). I tried this Edwards, because it's closer to where I live, but, from now on, I'm going to stick with Edwards Marque on 10W. That location has a more mature clientele - and free parking!
Pros: Comfortable seating
Cons: Lobby filed with rabid teenagers, expensive parking, good movies sold out
