Who doesn't love a good movie night?? Okay, I guess some people don't, but I love it! I know we have big tvs in our homes nowadays, but there is something special about going to a theater...the popcorn smell, the previews, the comfy chairs, and of course the sound in the auditoriums.
This theater is clean and has the most comfortable Dream Loungers. I always order my tickets in advance so I have a seat of my choice. You can see a movie and get a personal popcorn for only $5 on Tuesdays.
There is a bar/restaurant called Zaffiro's Express that will deliver to your seat if the kitchen is backed up. I had a medium pizza with pepperoni delivered to my seat and it was tasty! Kenneth, a bartender has always been friendly and prompt with service!
Overall, I love this theater! Keep up the good work!Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 4Oh no 0 - Michael D.Greenfield, WI010Jan 8, 2025
I bought a movie ticket here but had a change of plans and asked for a refund. I followed the proper refund procedures. Its been 3 1/2 weeks and I have not received my refund. Its was only $11 but the principal of the matter dictates that I never spend another dime here or any other Marcus Theater again. 0/10 service from the entire company.

I absolutely hated this theater because the only way to purchase a ticket is through the kiosk on my visit. The kiosk needs your full name, email address and phone number to complete the purchase which I don't understand. Why is so much personal information needed to purchase a movie ticket ?.

First movie theatre we've been to since moving here and we loved it. The staff were so nice, especially at the snack area. It's so clean and beautiful inside. I came from a small town so this was great! Loved the seats and being comfortable.

The loungers are nice, but the customer service at the snack bar is ATROCIOUS! This woman who was old enough to know better was clearly annoyed that the Taylor Swift movie exists. Rolled her eyes at me for asking questions. Holy cow I hope she isn't a manager!

I've had a love of movie theaters ever since I was little - a passion so great it eventually drew me into working at one throughout college which additionally lead to me to finding some of my best friends.
So, needless to say, I love movies and will get my butt pretty much anywhere to watch some. Having said that, South Shore has always been my number one spot because it was so close to my parents house. But man, this place has really "glowed up." Since it's giant remodel, it's pulling people from far and wide.
Every theater has dream lounger chairs which are super comfortable - so much so I've seen other movie goers fall asleep in them.
You get the delicious horrible-for-you buttery popcorn and stand candy snacks at this one, but in addition you have Zaffiro's pizza and the Take Five Lounge where you can stock up on some adult beverages before your flick.
I've been hitting this place up for great movies since I was like 6 years old and will keep on coming here when I want something on the big screen.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 3Oh no 0 - Lisa T.Round Lake, IL43182Apr 22, 2023
Had a wonderful date night! Loved sitting at the bar waiting for the movie. Our bartender, while not super experienced, made up for it in the attention that she paid and her service. Hadhe fried ravioli while we waited, so yummy. Loved the dream loungers!

Best movie theatre for the price that I've been to in the Milwaukee area. They have a refill bucket you can purchase for the year that is definitely worth it if you go to the movies 5-6 times a year.

I thought I was going to see a movie (Billie Eilish Live At The O2). Instead I found myself at a teenage rock concert. I had a great seat with nothing blocking my view until about the 4th song into the film when a pack of teenagers decided it was time to stand right in front of my row, form a wall and jump up and down. I was prepared to not hear anything in the film because I know Billie Eilish fans sing incessantly, but I did want to at least SEE the film. So not wanting to be rude to a pack of inconsiderate teenagers, I moved back 3 rows, so the kids could stay blocking the main aisle for the most of the rest of the film (glad no fire broke out cuz we'd all be tripping over them). Someone must have complained eventually, or maybe the kids just decided it would be more fun to go down towards the front row and stand directly in front of the screen for the last 2 songs. I was an inconsiderate teenager myself once, so I totally get why they did what they did, which is why I didn't cause a stink, but now that I'm an old person going to a movie theater to see a movie in a comfortable chair, not to a rock concert to stand on my feet for 2 hours with no view and kids screaming in my ear, I hope no one will berate me for my little rant here. I don't want to begrudge kids having fun, but this was not the Rocky Horror Picture Show, audience participation was not expected. And if they wanted to participate, they could have done so in the side aisles, blocking no one's view of the screen. I wish the management had made some kind of announcement at the beginning of the movie telling everyone to stay in their seats so everyone could enjoy the film.

We're a big time movie fam. Hence my many reviews of theaters! I would call my experience at South Shore a good one. A typical cinema with typical high priced snacks. But hey, that never stops us.
They do a great job of keeping this place clean and up to date. Always a massive bonus when there is an option for the dream lounger recliner chairs! I might almost be to the point where I don't want to watch a movie without em. So thank you South Shore for fulfilling my comfort needs!
With 16 state-of-the-art auditoriums, and one SuperScreen DLX auditorium, there is always plenty of movies on offer to pick from. Including family friendly. My suggestion however, is to reserve your seats online ahead of time because often times the sell out. I've made that mistake before. They also have a newly added food and beverage options for casual drinks and dining, and a Zaffiro's Express offering pizza and more.
Hot tip: Tuesdays are $5 movie days, so get after it!Helpful 5Thanks 0Love this 4Oh no 0
