    I love me some movies.  The atmosphere and excitement of a big opening call me in from time to time, and it much to hard to resist.  

    I think the biggest attraction of Regal is the surrounding area; you don't have to hop around in your car to have a full night of fun - there are fantastic restaurants and D&D (if you want something quick) nearby.  Add on the area is nice for an after-movie stroll with your boo, and what is there to complain about?

    The seats are comfortable and the sound and screens do well for any movie you are there to see.  Sit back, enjoy some popcorn and a Coke/White Cherry mixed Icee and enjoy the show!

    Normally you say movie theater and I automatically give 5 stars, but this one is hit or miss with me.  Sure the location is really convenient to Southpark and is mostly clean, but when this theater gets busy, its not a pretty site.

    First of all the 'old-skool' ticket office at the front is really great, but when a line starts forming and reaches the parking deck, there is a problem.  Usually it's because they only have one person manning the booth, but I would hope they run into this problem enough times to figure out they need to open more lines and get the line moving.  If you haven't figure it out already, I am pretty punctual and like to attend my movies with a nice cushion to get all the previews in and also get a decent seat.  Seeing a line out in front is never a good sign.

    Secondly it seems like the past couple of times I've been here the movie I was attempting to see was sold out... usually right when I got to the box office window.  Even with time cushion!  I know it happens, but it is very disconcerting considering the lack of theaters or alternatives around the area.

    Lastly, the parking deck is convenient, but when you are standing outside of your car talking to friends and someone drives by and the platform vibrates up and down... I'm not a big fan.  More-often-than-not, it is designed to be like that, but I like my structures to be more static than dynamic.

    This was a nice theater - very clean, large, nice location, plenty of parking, but the seats don't rock!

    I enjoyed the overall theater and the restrooms were clean. Thanks Regal.

    only place theatre that I've been to that offers ROOT BEER!!

    They had be from there... But I've moved and its not as close anymore.

    last time I went it was pretty crowded which probably explains why it was not the cleanest. But ahhh, no issue here.

    From the outside and the front of the inside, it looks like your typical movie theatre.  Grab your favorite expensive concession then head back and find your seat.  Just hope your movie isn't in the last theatre like mine was.

    I guess the last theatre is where the put the bad stepchild movies because it's more like a home theatre with around 70 seats and only 3 levels are actually stadium seats if you can really call it stadium seating.  3 rows of stadium seats are more like bleachers at a practice field.   And the layout of the theatre was awkward as well.  The aisle was in the middle so you were bound to see someone's head if they had to get up in the middle of the movie.

    I hope the other auditoriums in this place have a better layout.

    Sorry, Phillips Place, you lost a star in my book. For a low-key New Year's Eve, my husband and I went to watch a late night movie. I was pretty excited to get a bag of popcorn, settle down to a show, and let the new year roll in.

    I started eating the popcorn to soon figure out that it was not fresh or delicious. I went back up to the concession stand to find out that they hadn't popped a fresh batch all day and at that point it was too late in the evening for them to warm up their machine and get some going. Thankfully, they were more than willing to refund my money.

    The small bag costs $6 and a large is inching close to $8. For those prices, even paying $6 well covers a fresh batch of popcorn. I don't require too much when I go to see a film, but I do expect fresh tasting popcorn. It's the movies for goodness sake!

    To end on a positive tone, they had a pretty cheerful ticket taker last night!

    For a great movie in the perfect Southpark location, look no further than Phillips Place. The theater is generally very clean (although bathrooms can get a bit "overused" during peak movie nights) and the popcorn is quite good. Tickets are $10, and they always have the new releases. Parking is easy to come by, and if you need to grab a quick dinner beforehand, stop by Dean & Deluca. If you'd prefer to wait until after the movie to grab a snack, the Pinkberry is just a few steps away.

    If going on opening night, I'd recommend buying tickets online or arriving early. Due to it's convenient location, this theater can get very busy for top releases, especially on weekends. If you're trying to see a movie on opening weekend, arrive very early as seats fill up quickly and no one likes to sit in the first row. To save a little money, hit up a matinee during the week. And take note - this theater no longer offers student discounts on the weekends, so keep that in mind if you're on a budget.

    Epi totally tops Phillips Place cause give me a break Epi has a BAR duh.  But this location is fine if you are at dinner nearby and want to catch a flick.  Smells like your typical theatre rank butter hangover but there are quick lines outside at the box office.  The staff has always been fine and courteous.

    Bathrooms have a tendency to get gross - they need to be monitored more often yuck.  But, overall no major complaints, the location is really what it has going for it.

    My biggest problem with this theatre is that it doesn't offer enough kiosks to purchase tickets.  I like the electronic kiosks where you can walk up, hit a few buttons, insert your credit card and then you're movie watching in no time!  During the weekends, the one ticketing window can get really backed up and you may be waiting in line 10-15 minutes to purchase tickets.  To some, this may not be a problem, but for those who tend to run a little late, this can be a problem.  Also, I've noticed that on the weekends, the concession stands gather big lines, too.  I guess I shouldn't complain because I'm glad that people are getting out to see movies.  I'm glad that the theatre is busy.  I love seeing movies with a full crowd... you know, sharing the experience is half the fun!  But, there must be a better way to keep the lines moving faster.  

    Most of the theatres themselves are great.  Some of them are stadium seating with great sound and projection.  Some are much smaller with a less ideal seating arrangement (meaning, the aisle is in the middle so there are no seats directly in the middle of the screen).  If things like this are important to you, try seeing the smaller movies in a different theatre.  Or call ahead to ask which theatre your movie is playing in.  Yes, I am this person.  

    The biggest perks about this place are the Dean & Deluca and Pinkberry  next door and the convenience of the parking.  Also, I appreciate that it's a Regal so I can use my Regal card and get points and free stuff occasionally, and that I can purchase tickets ahead of time on Fandango -- which I recommend to avoid long lines.

    I love movies. I really, really do - so, I'm a big fan of well placed, nicely laid out theaters with good popcorn. Regal Phillips Place fits this tall order quite nicely.

    As Faith D. said, this theater is in a great location for all who frequent SouthPark and/or SouthPark mall. There is a boatload of shopping and restaurants within a one mile vicinity and plenty of theatre parking. And, comon, Regal Phillips Place has a fountain in front of the theater. Class-ay!

    The ticket prices are pretty standard across the Charlotte landscape, $10 for adults and $7.50 for matinee pricing. They do offer senior and student discounts with some limitations. They also have a Fandango kiosk inside for those who like to straight up pick up their tickets or avoid the line outside.

    This theater has super comfy seats and plenty of theaters with current showings. Also, they keep this theater pretty clean - and it shows! This is my go-to spot for new showings, tasty popcorn and comfy (COLD) theaters!

    Regal Phillips is a clean theatre with friendly staff.  It's not ultra modern but updated enough. The location is great - you can always get drinks and food at Dean & Deluca or Upstream before/after. The NEW Pink Berry is located right next door.

    I give them only 3 stars because they don't have recycling. Really, it's 2010?

    This Regal theater has undergone some improvements over the past couple of years.  They've changed the seats and made them MUCH more comfortable.  They're bigger, made of leather, and rock!  No, they're not made of rock.  They rock!  No, they're not just cool, they really rock.  Like a rocking chair.  

    During a slow time, it's easy to find parking either off to the side of the theater or in the small two-level parking deck.  During busy times, get there early to allow for time to find a spot.  The parking provided isn't made to accommodate crowds for movie premieres such as "Sex & the City" or "The Dark Knight," or on extremely busy nights like Thanksgiving evening.  

    Since there are no theaters attached to SouthPark Mall, Regal Phillips Place Stadium 10 is as close as you can get to seeing a movie after shopping.  It's quickly becoming my favorite theater since there are no AMC Theatres near our house and you can always count on a clean, good theater-going experience here.  

    My only disappointment with the renovations and Regal taking over this theater is that they no longer offer flavors to dust your popcorn.  No more cheese, ranch, or buttery salt.  :(

    Regal Phillips Place is a great place to see a movie.  You can take a walk, enjoy a casual or formal meal, yogurt, a glass of wine (or two), or even take a stroll before or after the movie.  The ambiance at Phillips Place is something many shopping centers strive to attain without success.  The seating is excellent, with leather (look and feel like leather) chairs that rock.  On this visit, no one kicked my chair - THANK YOU!  However, as with most movie theaters, there is always that person who cannot put down the cell phone. :(

    Getting the Regal Crown Club Card is worth it.  I've gotten free food & free movie tickets.  The prices seem to have gotten a little steep lately.  The matinee prices cut off at 3pm.  I wish the staff were more friendly.  I guess it's just a job, but when you can tell someone doesn't want to be there it's a little off-putting.    There is a lot to do within safe walking distance as this is a live/work/play kind of area.  Restaurants, wine bars, shops, dessert, hotel.  It's very pretty to walk around on a nice evening.

    Being amongst the funemployed, the matinee deals at local cinemas are somewhat of a regular occurrence for me.  Today, my movie crew graced the not so Regal Phillips Place "Stadium" 10.
    Okay, it is a quaint little theater for those that had a few cabernet sauvignons at Dean and Deluca and wanted to stroll down to see one of maybe five or six movies that have semi-recently come out.  But for those of us that want the latest in movie experiences, they come up amazingly short.  
    For starters, the matinees are $7.50 compared to $5.00 at most other, better appointed theaters.  You have your standard overpriced soda, popcorn, and candy deals.  Those are expected.
    By definition, it IS stadium seating in the theaters.  Meaning that the row behind you is higher and so on and so forth.  But you have four or five seats divided by a huge railing.  The seats are the old 80's style flip downs at best and leave much to be desired in the form of comfort.  
    We found ourselves abandoning the traditional "midway up the steps is your best seat" since we were then sitting above the top of the screen.  I have been in better home theaters...

    This is one of my favorite places to go out for movies. It's one of the first theaters I went to in Charlotte, and it kind of set a high bar. It's clean and nice inside, and it never smells funny. The seats aren't wet. Nobody is yelling. Babies aren't crying. It's a good thing, and one you'll only appreciate through comparison to some of the other theaters in Charlotte.

    The parking is plentiful, with a parking deck around back that's kind of hidden and nice to find. They always have the best, newest movies.

    Bring your big purse and sneak in some snacks and sodas. You pay extra for the good environment.

    My favorite theater in Charlotte. Probably because I can hit up Dean & Delucca next door for a pre-movie meal/coffee/beer/treat. Movie will cost you $10 here and $7.50 during the day. Popcorn is great without butter and the theater always has the newest movies available. It's a regal cinema, so if you have the free club card, you'll save some money from time to time. Since it's located near South Park mall, it makes for a good place to split up friends and family when they're in town. Some shop, some watch movies. Depending on the day/night and the movies playing expect to see a lot of kids, but it's a safe theater in a good neighborhood.

    We always visit this movie theater because it is so close to our home. On Monday 6/27, my experience was very different. We spent 20$ for 2 to see a movie (Cars 2) and 25$ for popcorn/chips/drinks. The food was so stale! The popcorn tasted "old" and the chips were well over their expiration date. Very disappointing!

    If you're looking for a dinner & a movie date night, then Phillips Place is a great choice. This theater is located near several upscale restaurant choices, so you have your pick at impressing your date.

    As for the movie theater itself, they always have the new hits with lots of show times for each. This theater is clean, quiet, & does its job quite well. While it won't blow you away with anything, it does exactly what a good movie theater should do by staying out of the way & making sure you enjoy your movie.

    Phillips Place not only does its job very well, it's also located around great food options so your night out doesn't have to be spent driving from place to place.

    When I lived in Charlotte this was one of my favorite places to catch a movie.  I stopped going as often once the Stonecrest Cinemas opened but I would still go.  The Phillips Place Stadium 10 has plenty of before and after movie options.

    Parking can be an issue on Friday and Saturday evenings.

    I love Regal Phillips Place theatre. It has always been the theatre of my childhood. Recently, they have gotten 3 digital projectors. This is terrific due to the incredible difference in quality compared to the regular 35mm in the other 7 theatres. The employees are always very nice and helpful at anything that I need. Regal Crown Club cards are always awesome because you save so much money with the somewhat ridiculous prices. I give my full recomendation to come out and enjoy a movie and escape at Regal Phillips Place Stadium 10!

    The Phillips Place movie theater is great. Always clean, friendly staff and reasonable ticket prices. I'm a big weekend matinee movie-goer, and they are great for this! Cheap tickets, never too crowded and lots of afternoon showtimes. At night, parking can be an issue and it, inevitably, becomes a haven for high schoolers holding hands in packs, but it still isn't outrageously busy and the hand-holders aren't out of control or yelling in the theaters. Great location if you're looking for a date night as all of the restaurants are within walking distance.

    I've only been to a few advance screenings here, but I don't really like the theater. I usually go to Regal on Rea Rd. Phillips Place is an old theater that Regal bought and upgraded. Although they installed stadium seating, there still isn't enough room between the seats for me (6'4") and the chairs are not comfortable. The parking can be bad too. It's not worth $10 to see a movie here.

    Nice little movie theater.  The seats are comfortable, it's clean and the staff is nice.  For some reason it doesn't come across as spectacular.  I'm always trying to remember which screen room to avoid, I think it's number 10 that's really tiny and the stairs cut right up the middle of the theater so it's impossible to sit in the center for the best view.  But it serves its purpose.

    Great location, nice cinema...  The perfect date movie location, because you have shops, bars and restaurants all around. You might want to try the bar at Upstream or the Dean and Deluca wine bar before or after the movie. There is also a really great Osteria there, but i dont remember the name. The theater is clean and comfortable, nothing over the top special, but again, you can't beat the movie night package!

    I didn't really appreciate how nice and clean Phillips Place is until I went to some other movie theaters in Charlotte. Phillips Place, located in the upscale SouthPark area, is really great in comparison. Like any movie theater, it can be pretty crowded on weekends and the outside area is packed with tweens waiting for their parents to pick them up. And the prices for tickets and concessions are ridiculous, as you would expect. They've typically got all the mainstream movies. If you're looking for an indie flick, try Manor Theatre, Ballantyne or Park Terrace.

    $10 for a 4:20pm show. The absolute WORST movie theater popcorn I have ever eaten. I wish I'd have gone a few miles out of the way to AMC for $5 tickets and good popcorn. Very, very disappointing visit!
