A piece of Hollywood history. The handprints are facinating, and the main auditorium is a beautiful place to see a film More

It's really a gem; I love the old themed interiors at Grauman's Chinese Theater. It's so huge and grand and fun and unique. I love the mirrored powder room in the ladies' room downstairs. But most importantly, I love the leg room in the theater. There's enough room between the rows that the person behind you isn't kicking your seat... More

Right on Hollywood Blvd and in the middle of all the crazies. You got to do this and put your hands and feet in the imprints of the stars. You see the stars on the walk also. Keep your wallet tight and avoid all the people trying to get your money and have fun! More

There was some Hollywood history to hear about and some movie items to view. It's a beautiful old theater. Considering the low price, we thought this short tour was worth it. More

It is hard to believe that the original footprints are still there. I enjoyed the courtyard and exterior front. But the theater was overpriced for me. As far as the characters and homeless: disgraceful. Robs that entire area of class. The homeless there just urinate all over the place. The characters are scary/shady characters inside. More

If you like movie nostalgia this is your place. All the famed foot and hand prints take one back to the heyday of Hollywood. While you are there take in the essence of Hollywood with all the street characters and the Kodak theater complex next door. More

The forecourt was smaller than I imagined and during the day becomes very crowded. The best time to visit is before 9 am when it is quite and you can wander around easily and find your favourite movie stars. Enjoyed seeing the 'movie' hand and footprints - Star Wars, Star Trek, Harry Potter and Twilight. Finding a particular person can... More

Walking the red carpet and seeing a film here makes for one of the best nights ever. Checking all of the hand/foot prints is fun while waiting in line, too. More
