Cineplex Odeon Eglinton Town Centre Cinemas

I went to watch Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle English version in IMAX at Cineplex Odeon Eglinton Town Centre, expecting the large-scale, vibrant experience that IMAX is supposed to deliver. Unfortunately, what I got was far from it.nFrom the very beginning, I could tell something was wrong. The Tron: Ares trailer that played before the movie had a strange yellow tint instead of its signature red visuals. Even the Crunchyroll intro, which is normally bright orange, looked dull and yellow. Once the movie started, the same issue continued – the entire screen had a heavy yellow tint, making everything look washed out and unnatural. Characters who should have clear, vivid colors looked dull, and the overall picture quality felt nothing like what the trailers and promotional material showcased.nnWhen I raised this issue with the manager, she admitted that they didn’t know much about the quality and said they were simply playing the print provided. She also mentioned there “could be a problem” and that they would raise it to IMAX/Cineplex’s main office. She gave me a refund, but what was frustrating is that it seems the theatre was aware of the problem yet still continued playing the movie in this poor condition for paying customers.nnThe bigger issue here is that Cineplex is marketing these showings as IMAX, but what we’re actually getting at this location feels like a downgraded version. After checking, it looks like this theatre is still using older IMAX Xenon projectors, which cannot reproduce the brightness and full color range of IMAX Laser. That would explain the dim, yellowish image. Other fans who watched in true IMAX Laser or Dolby confirmed that the movie has vibrant, sharp, and accurate colors – nothing like what we got here.nnFor the premium price Cineplex charges for IMAX tickets, customers deserve transparency. If a theatre doesn’t have proper IMAX Laser projectors, Cineplex should make that clear instead of selling it under the same “IMAX” branding. Right now, it feels misleading – we’re paying for IMAX quality, but only getting the name.nnVery disappointed with this experience. I hope Cineplex and IMAX take this seriously and fix it, because fans expect a premium viewing experience, not a flawed, washed-out version of one of the most anticipated anime films.

I thoroughly enjoyed the 12pm showing of Andre Rieu Concert on Sept 1/25. The theatre was clean and the staff were so helpful.nnSpecial thanks to the beautiful young lady at the ticket stand. As I was exiting the theatre I asked for information and she politely helped me. When I returned to ask a second time, she did not have the answer but smilingly took time to check with the manager.nnShe was genuinely customer oriented and shows she likes her job.nThis proves good character and/or training.nnFor these reasons, I would recommend this theatre over others in the area.

Watched the new fantastic 4 movie here on preview night. Needless to say it’s very busy, however, they were sufficiently staffed to accommodate a busy rush. We didn’t wait long for concessions. Free refills on large popcorn and drinks which is a plus. They had a butter station which I always appreciate. They also had a short preview/trailer section which is awesome. My go-to cinema if I’m in the area.

Needed to use the bathroom after the door was locked wouldn’t let me in but let 3 girls under age go in and use it in. 2025 i’m disappointed in the cineplex for allowing this. and being thus blatantly sexist. Both these workers told me i wasn’t allowed but continue to let them still

Great parking, and comfy seats. Bathrooms decently clean. While expected to be expensive, the new consession mark ups are unreasonable when we can get the same candy or drink across the parking lot for 1/4 the price.
