So the visuals here are excellent and there are sooo many speakers. I just wish I could bring my collection and play it here. Amazing Spider-Man or Star Trek would look grand.

Ive gone to MANY fils here. It's in the Science Center. Payment options are kinda confusing. The screen is huge. Boeing helped fund it. Unknown movies (Beavers) are less expensive than normal movies that have been in regular theaters. go to the science center while you are there.

Went here years ago and it was a wonderful experience. Except for the snakes on screen! But everything was so realistic, it was a fantastic experience. Would love to go again.

The theater features are so realistic....flying, racing, scenery, travel, you name it and it feels like you are actually doing it. A great place for family and kids, out of town guests, or just you !

IMax is in Seattle Center so centrally located. Great place to see a 'big screen' movie which Cloud Atlas definitely was.

If so, I really enjoyed the experience when I was a kid. Haven't been back for decades, but have wanted to.

First 3D movie I ever saw, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Meryl Streep narrated it, about the melting glaciers and the polar bears. I could have done without the smashing ice at the beginning, it seemed to blow out into your face, I kept closing my eyes during that part, but the rest was beautiful and interesting, if not a little...

This is a facility that has been used a lot, by children, by adults, by families. It was a great addition to the Seattle Science Center and gives this town a unique destination for marvelous Imax presentations. The sound, visuals, and seating are just right for Seattle.
